Paradise on the Lake

Find the perfect spot to disconnect, unwind, and relax at this peaceful, waterfront cabin on the shores of Vallecito Lake. Rustic and cozy, this home makes a tranquil home base for your hiking, mountain biking, fishing, and boating adventures in Southwest Colorado.

This log cabin sits among the evergreens on a hill just above the lake, with a spacious deck overlooking the water and the surrounding snow-capped peaks. The interior is incredibly atmospheric, with wood paneling adorning the walls and a living space that brings together the living room, the kitchen, and the dining room. Before a day of adventure, you can flip pancakes on the stove in the kitchen, sip your morning coffee at the two-person breakfast bar, and sit down to eat with your loved ones at the dining table for four or outside on the deck.

This lakefront cabin is located 200 feet above the lake, in a peaceful, private area on the southwestern shores of Vallecito Lake, with much of the surrounding land part of San Juan National Forest and the Weminuche Wilderness. It's a great spot for mountain biking, ATVing, and hiking, whether you choose one of the trails tracing the lakeshore or the Lake Eileen, Vallecito, or Pine River Trail within a few miles' drive. You'll also be less than a mile from the Vallecito Marina, where you can rent canoes, kayaks, paddleboards, pontoon boats, fishing boats, and fishing gear.

Cozy Cabin
This place is great. Nice and cozy and great view of the lake. Cabin has everything you need. The only thing is it's time to get a new couch and chairs.

Best Cabin on the Lake
You will love this sweet cabin with the breathtaking views and the wraparound deck! Cabin was clean and perfectly comfortable for 3 adults. We celebrated my daughter's 50th here and didn't want to leave.

Beautiful Serene Cabin Overlooking Lake
My husband and I stayed for 3 wonderful nights at this little cabin. It was clean and immaculate. Every morning we loved sitting outside looking at the view of the lake. The cabin had everything we needed. Slept amazing! Great choice for us! Thank you.

A true getaway
I booked this trip to literally get away for a little while. This location, and time of year, is perfect for that. Tourist season around that area has pretty much shut down by this time of year, so i was one of the only people in the collection of cabins directly around. So other than a vehicle from time to time, the only noise was the lake and the wind in the trees. The cabin itself was perfect too. A cozy little two bed, with a nice fireplace, and half wrap around deck, which was perfect for having my morning coffee, while watching the sun come up over the mountains on the other side of the lake. The only improvement i could possibly think of would be to get a new shower head. That's an extremely minor thing, but the one that's there has an better days. Other than that, my stay in this cabin couldn't have been better. It was exactly what I needed.

Loved it!
We really enjoyed our stay here. The only thing I would change is the sofa bed, it was not comfortable at all. The beds were nice, the views was wonderful. If you have little kids it’s not ideal to fish from the cabin because it’s a hike to get down to the shore but it’s not hard to drive to go fish somewhere. My kiddos are 18 months, 5 and 8. It was a little hard to find at first so I definitely recommend getting to your cabin when it’s plenty of daylight and time to find it. We truly enjoyed our family time here and we would stay here again.

Family trip with our four kids
The cabin was adorable and felt kind of vintage rustic. The little cabin neighborhood seemed a little bit shady but at least we were the only ones there. The lake access was gorgeous and the view from the window was beautiful! The pics on the listing made it seem bigger than it actually was but the space was sufficient even for my crazy kids. The bothersome thing about the house was that the foundation seemed to be very crooked and the floor was not level at all! My husband and I have fixed a few houses with this awful problem so it bothered us more than the average person probably. All in all- it was a lovely memory.

Nice location
The cabin was very clean which was nice. The view to the lake and deck were great. The reason for four stars and not five is because The furniture and beds were uncomfortable.

Perfect Romantic Hideaway
Out of town perched on a picturesque waterside, this cabin has everything you need. Great amenities. Spotlessly clean. Fun games. A fire log. Excellent communication with the hose. Easy to find. Not to far to restaurants and town. Just lovely!

Cute cabin, but not comfortable
This would have been a relaxing stay had it not been for quite a few things. There were incorrect WiFi instructions in 3 places - the web app, and 2 written docs in the cabin. We couldn’t connect until we figured out that there was a totally different WiFi and found the password on the router. The couch and chairs inside were so uncomfortable that we nearly left. The tub drained so slow that we stood in water while showering. The coffee pot had used grounds in it and the couch had a layer of dust on it when we checked in. The patio table and chairs had to be cleaned really well before we could use them. And someone had written “June” into the dust of the fireplace dustpan… and it was still there when we checked in, in late August. This place could be worth the $$ with new furniture and a good cleaning. (If nothing else, please please replace the couch…. It was like sitting on a brick and frankly, the plastic picnic table was the most comfortable place to sit at the cabin.)

Great rustic spot right on the reservoir
Great location with just a short (but steep) walk down to the shore. Very comfortable accommodations with everything you need and an amazing porch to enjoy the mountain lake views.
