The cabin has a lot of space, a lot of light, and a lot of views! The bedrooms are separated from each other in such a way as to afford a sense of retreat, while the common areas are great for coming together. The original Colorado rose sandstone fireplace is one to behold with the stone most likely quarried from the nearby historic Buster Quarries down the hill near Lyons--in operation since the late 1800's. Together with the knotty pine walls and comfy chairs, this room is one of our favorites to enjoy, especially with a fire and a glass of something nice to sip in the quiet of the evening.
Next, you just can't beat the dining room with its wall of windows and beautiful custom-built reclaimed wood and cedar dining table. The table top and skirt were made using shiplap siding and rafters rescued from a 1900-era home that was being demolished, while the legs are large cedar logs. Whether it's blue skies and sunny, or cloudy with a gentle falling snow, the open views from the dining room of mountains and pines is good for the soul in all kinds of weather.
The custom-built bedroom furniture also adds to the unique charm of the cabin. In fact, the headboard posts of the king bed were made from a dead pine on the property, and the side tables were made using the same reclaimed wood and cedar as the dining table.
Finally, we love the patio area. With terrific views of the night sky and the surrounding mountain ridges, cool rock outcroppings, and privacy, this is another place to just soak in the surroundings, relax, and spend time with special friends and family in the majestic beauty of the Rocky Mountains.
