About Chris
We live in Denver and manage this property ourselves. It is a rare find -- a true log cabin in a very private setting with all the furnishings and amenities you could ever want. Please contact us for more photos and any questions you might have!
Chris purchased this Cabin in 1996
Why Chris chose Breckenridge
This house has great views and privacy yet is very close to the town of Breckenridge for shopping, skiing and restaurants. This is a true custom crafted log home, not a 'kit' log cabin, located on a very private lot next to National Forest. We believe it is a one of a kind and our guests agree.
What makes this Cabin unique
This is not your typical rental house and is furnished as if it were your own. It has a two-car heated garage, gourmet kitchen, large private hot tub, sauna, steam shower and pool table. For the children we have a huge bunkroom, an authentic Indian tipi complete with firepit and log benches. We provide the 'extras' that are not typically included with other rentals -- tons of board games, Jenga, puzzles, cards, down comforters and pillows, gourmet kitchen provisioned with spices and top of the line cookware. We make every effort to distinguish our house as the best on the market in Breckenridge.

Family Getaway
We had a blast staying at Blue River Lodge. Thank you Chris for letting us stay in your beautiful home.
Amazing Christmas Vacation!
This cabin fit three families perfectly and we made use of all the amenities it had to offer. We used the snow-shoes, sledded, made fires in the t-pee, cooked a fabulous prime rib dinner in the kitchen, and played lots of board games. We loved every minute of it!
Kris,
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Chris & Sibyl
Great Christmas vacation!
I would like to start by saying the cabin is beautiful! It had everything we needed. Chris was extremely helpful when we got more than we could handle snow and quickly responded to every question after. For our first time experience in the snow we would say it was absolutely perfect. We would definitely like to visit Blue River lodge again.
Thanks Bobijo! Glad you enjoyed your stay at the Blue River Lodge and two feet of new snow on your first day! I know this was the first time for your kids to see snow and experience sledding and skiing. Hope they loved it!
Great fall visit to Breckenridge
Good location and great communication with property owners comfortable accommodations and vibe. Teepee was awesome. Few minor issues worked through easily with owner to resolve. Thanks for a great getaway!!!
Better than advertised.
I can't say enough good things about this property or the owner. No question we will use this property again and refer it to our friends.. Location was great, amenities were great, response from owner was great, teepee out back was great.....bottom line is that it's better than advertised!
Map
The Blue River Lodge is close to the town of Breckenridge yet located in a private setting where you are secluded and protected from the noise and bustle of town. Surrounded by Aspen and Evergreen trees with mountain views you will feel far away but with a short ten minute drive you will find yourself in the world class resort of Breckenridge which offers some of Colorado's best skiing, fabulous restaurants, excellent shopping, spas, nightlife and more. Winter activities include x-country skiing and snowshoeing from the Breckenridge Nordic Center (or out our back door, snowshoes provide!), terrain parks, snowmobiling, dog sled rides, and of course world-class skiing for all ability levels. Copper Mountain, Keystone, A-Basin are all within 30 minutes and Vail is only a 50-minute drive. If you are looking for a great summer escape, Breckenridge and Summit County offer some of the best hiking trails, mountain biking, fishing and rafting in Colorado, The Breckenridge Golf Course, designed by Jack Nicklaus, is only 15 minutes away. If boating, sailing or stand up paddle boards are your thing, Lake Dillon is only 20 minutes away. The Blue River Lodge offers a true Colorado log cabin experience complete with almost every amenity and luxury you could want -- maintained 7-person hot tub, sauna, steam shower, fire pit in back, Indian tipi, 2-car heated garage, pool table, large deck, every board game you could imagine and more -- most guests tell us that they hardly went into town because they enjoyed the Blue River Lodge so much! Guests often comment that staying at the Blue River Lodge is like having your own private spa - steam shower, sauna, outdoor hot tub, oversized showers with natural stone, copper bathtub - all nicer than most luxury spas. The tipi behind the house (with firepit inside) is fabulous for the kids, and an oversized firepit outside complete with benches and marshmallow roasting sticks will provide hours of enjoyment. This log home borders National Forest yet is close to world class resorts -- the opportunities are endless!
