About this property

Moon Creek Cabin - Peace and Solitude - Stream Side - Privacy - Hiking

The Moon Creek Cabin is a wonderful place to escape the summer heat, enjoy the winter snow and get away from it all. Listen to the babbling brook in the backyard. Relax and rejuvenate in the our comfortable mountain cabin with a gourmet kitchen (granite countertops, new stainless appliances, gas range/oven), custom beetle-kill window trim and hardwood and decorative tile floors. We also have a wood-burning stove that is perfect to warm up to after a long day of skiing or snow-shoeing. In summer, step outside and breathe in the fresh mountain air, listen to the babbling brook while enjoying all the mountain wildflowers and hummingbirds. Also watch for moose, elk, deer, fox, coyote and variety of beautiful songbirds. The Moon Creek Cabin is literally at the end of the road. There is nothing above you but nature for miles and miles. No need to drive from the cabin, just step outside and start hiking up Moon Gulch. The peacefulness and tranquility of this cabin is unparalleled. Guests will have the entire home and property to themselves. We also provide 2 pairs of adult snowshoes and poles for your use. NOTE: 4wd or Awd REQUIRED in "winter" (generally mid-October to end of April or sometimes May). Please confirm you have 4wd or Awd for all booking requests during this time.

For the nature lover, there is world-class hiking, cross-country skiing, hiking, biking, back country alpine touring, snow-shoeing, climbing and fishing right out the front door. Or take a very short drive to the James Peak and Indian Peaks Wilderness Areas and experience beautiful alpine lakes, native wildflower meadows and magical subalpine forest. If you like to ride your ATV or dirt-bike, then the Moon Creek Cabin offers a unique jumping off point to explore the old mining roads of Upper Moon Gulch and the historic mining town of Apex. Ride right from the cabin!

If you prefer a scenic drive, the Peak to Peak Highway is only two miles away and you can take a 10 minute drive to the funky town of Nederland with numerous good restaurants and unique gift shops. Or drive 45 minutes north, and visit Estes Park which is the gateway to Rocky Mountain National Park. To the south are the towns of Black Hawk and Central City, known for casinos and the Central City Opera. The progressive town of Boulder is only a 40 minute drive to the east where you can visit the famous Peal Street Mall and the hand-painted Dushanbe Tea House. Finally, we are only 75 minutes from Denver International Airport.

Secluded, as we like it.
The cabin is modern, clean, well stocked. We experienced no issues. The two mile dirt/rock road in is what we were looking for - silence and seclusion. Nearby hiking was abundant. Grocery in Nederland has everything you need as does Ace Hardware. We give this and the owners 5 stars!

Wonderful Winter Vacation Getaway!
This review is long overdue! Our family stayed in this awesome cabin in mid-January. The owners kept everything well plowed and access was good. Pretty much anything you could need is on-site (except food - LOL) and the nearby town of Nederland is quaint and pretty well has all you could want, if you don't want to take the drive to Boulder. Eldora Ski Resort is less than half an hour away. We had an issue with the internet and one of the owners came out right away to remedy it. Did I mention how comfortable the beds are? :) Combine that with the peace and quiet and you can have a very restful stay. We highly recommend Moon Creek Cabin and it's owners!

About the host

Host profile image
My husband, Jeff, and I live in the area and have 2 young kids. I work full time as a plant ecologist and botanist and Jeff is a stone mason and artist. We love living in the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains where we have prairie grasslands ecosystems all the way up to alpine tundra in a distance of only nine miles. We loving hiking, mountain biking, skiing, and being outdoors. We are here to help you enjoy your stay, just give us a call or text if you have any questions.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property in January 2014 and completely remodeled it with high-end custom finishes. We fell in love with the cabin's location (at the end of a road) and the privacy it offers as well as the small stream in the backyard.

What makes this property unique

Moon Creek Cabin is very private, yet only a short drive to nearby towns Rollinsville and Nederland and the big city of Denver. You will be surrounded by nature and have access to great hiking, cross-country skiing, snowmobiling or ATVing right from the doorstep. There is a small perennial stream in the backyard. We are also a short drive from Eldora Ski Resort. The cabin is very secluded and there are no neighbors. If you are looking for privacy in a beautiful forested mountain setting, this is the place!
