We had a wonderful stay at this cozy cabin for a long weekend. It has everything you need. It's clean, comfortable, well stocked and has comfy beds. The heated bathroom floors were a bonus! Wonderful location. Host has excellent and prompt communications.

Our stay at Cliffside cabin beat all of our expectations. The cabin was beautifully set back in the mountains and away from any highway noise. The cabin was clean and they provided all of the appropriate necessities to accommodate a comfortable stay. It felt like a home away from home. This will definitely be our new yearly getaway spot. Lindsey and Matt were great hosts and wonderful communicators. This is a must stay spot. And I will be suggesting it to any friends and family who visit Colorado.
