Aspen Grove soak in the hot tub, enjoy hot chocolate, and a cozy fireplace!

What our guest are saying, We loved our stay!!! The stream, humming birds galore, fireplace and fire pit, grill, jacuzzi and nice cabin with everything you need. We like that the main floor rooms were on opposite ends and multiple bathrooms. They are very responsive to any questions you might have and great host. I'd definitely stay again. Oh, and the beds were comfy too! Thanks for having us.

Located on the banks of the North Fork of Chalk Creek in Chalk Creek Canyon the cabin is an amazing mountain home with a hot tub. The cabin is located on acreage near the national forest and across from the Wildlife viewing meadow. Situated in the Heart of the Colorado Rockies between the 14ers Mt. Princeton and Mt. Antero. https://www.colorfulcolorado.com/webcams/
Aspen Grove is a private, creek-side cabin with all the modern amenities. Guests can fish from the banks of Chalk Creek in the back yard or wet a line at Wrights Lake or Chalk Lake, both local favorites, and within 1/2 mile from the property. This cozy wonderland cabin is your year-round ultimate base camp with convenience to everything Colorado Country. Relax in chairs at the outside fireplace overlooking the creek, take in some cool Colorado mountain air on the back deck, enjoy a special dinner or snacks overlooking meadows of aspen and pine. Read a good book on one of the 2 Redwood decks, chill out watching new 65" TV or playing games with friends and family. Soak in the new hot tub or the nearby hot springs. Hike the nearby Colorado Trail, Agnes Vaile, a waterfall trail, or the historic railway grade. Jeep or ATV one of the many trails, including Hancock, Antero, Princeton, and Tincup. Visit the historic mining ghost town of St. Elmo (feed the chipmunk's), hunt for gems, there were several mines in the day! White water raft down the Arkansas River minutes away, horseback rides are a few miles down the road. Of course, every season has outdoor activities: in the winter try snowshoeing, skiing - Monarch Ski is about 40 minutes away. The towns of Salida and Buena Vista are short miles away and have unique food and shopping with a lot of live music and events!

Wonderful place for a family

It was perfect! Beautiful location, nice rooms, and well- equipped. We were 4 adults. It was great for games, relaxing, very close to Mt. Princeton Hot Springs, and near beautiful hikes. We didn't go to the Hot Springs, because the cabin comes with an excellent hot tub, which was sparkling clean. Loved this place!

The host and checkin was prompt and easy. The cabin had 2 bedrooms that were 5 star however, the basement seemed to be in transition to eventually have a kitchenette because there were unfinished cabinetry and the refrigerator and microwave were not plugged. The basement bathroom is not suitable for tall or big people as the toilet and sink were in close proximity to each other. None of the tvs in the bedrooms worked for us.

Cute Little Home

The home is charming and the location is great if you want to stay close to St Elmo or the hot springs! A few things you might want to bring, extra towels, they provided one towel per person and a hand towel per bathroom. If you plan to bake anything in a baking dish, you might grab a disposable when you get groceries. Overall, great stay!
