Adorable Mountain A-Frame Tucked in the Pines - Moose Creek Lodge

Moose Creek Chalet is a custom cabin built w/ talent and a lot of love! It is absolutely adorable. The cabin is decorated in luxurious mountain decor and finished with beautiful custom wood work. From the moment you drive up to the cabin you will see how much care and thought went into this home. It is surrounded by beautiful Pine and Aspen trees and has stunning views of the white-capped `mountains. When you walk in, you enter the open living room, dining room, and kitchen. The ceilings are high and lofted and the luxurious decor will take your breath away. The living area has comfortable leather seating and a large flat screen TV with satellite programming. There is even a cute electric fire place to add to the ambiance. The spacious kitchen is open to the living area and the dining room. It has modern stainless appliances and gorgeous granite counter tops. It has everything you will need for your stay including all dishes, pots and pans, and silverware. There is a large dining room that seats 6-8. There is additional island seating at the kitchen counter top. You will love everything about Moose Creek.

There is a full size private bedroom with a queen size bed. It has beautiful wood furniture including a dresser you can use for your stay. All linens are provided in the home. They are new luxurious linens. We use a 3 sheet system with a fitted and 2 flat sheets. You will really sleep comfortably in the cool mountain atmosphere. Upstairs there is a large loft with two queen size futon beds. The room has a flat screen TV and a large game table where you can work your favorite crossword puzzle or play a board game. The furnishings are comfortable and very tastefully decorated in mountain decor. There are sliding doors that open to a large upper deck. The views from up there are magnificent. You can see white-capped mountains and the beautiful surrounding forest. There is another bathroom off of the loft. This is a full bath with a walk in shower that has custom tile work. It is comfortable and inviting. There is a second private bedroom upstairs with a queen size bed and a private en suite bath. It too is comfortable and beautifully decorated. There is a third bedroom downstairs that is small but very cute. The kids will love this "secret" room. It has two twin beds. The second bed is a pull-out under the other.

Outside there is a back deck that has patio furniture and a gas grill. You will enjoy sitting outside and watching the wildlife in the area. There are deer, moose, fox, and an occasional bear. If you are into bird watching, you will love the mountains. There are many different species of birds, including the native blue bird which is the small cute one like in the Disney movie Snow White. The home is right around the corner from a National Forest entrance and Thompson Park. You can take nightly hikes on one of the many trails in this area. If you like ATVing, you will love this area! You can go right into the Breakneck and Browns Pass areas where there are lots of fun and some challenging trails. They are also amazing trails to hike or snow shoe in the winter. Horseback riding is just minutes from the home. The Platte River Ranch is an amazing place for family, friends and kids to ride or enjoy a hay ride or steak dinner ride. If you are an avid fisherman, the Platte River offers Gold Medal fishing. There are also several lakes nearby that are known for great fishing. They include Antero Reservoir, Spinney Reservoir, and Eleven Mile Lake. Montgomery Reservoir is also a beautiful place to fish and hike. There are many jeep trails and ghost towns and mining towns to explore in the area. Fairplay has the famous restored 1800's mining town of South Park. You will want to be sure to visit this town before you leave. Rafting is also nearby in Buena Vista on the Arkansas River.

Wonderful peaceful retreat
The house is a really smart layout that really maximize the space. It feels much bigger than it is. We had a family of 7, but never felt cramped. There was space to get away, and the cabin is tucked back into woods with lots of fun nooks for the kids to explore.

Such a cute place!
This place was a great place to stay while getting away from it all. The beds are comfortable, the sheets were nice, and the hiking in the area was amazing. We accidentally locked ourselves out on the upstairs deck. I texted Second Home rentals and they were out in 15 minutes to rescue us! Everything was as described or better with the exception of wireless internet. There is no internet. We didn’t mind as we were outside enjoying the area. Not over crowded like Breckinridge or some of the other more popular mountain areas. We will be back!

Moose Chalet
Beautiful surroundings and luxurious chalet. Only downside was checking. We got an email beforehand stating that there would only be one extra roll of toilet paper and one extra towel per person, and we rented for a whole week. This did not let us feel very welcome. But we actually had multiple towels and TP. Also the rental company sent us by email an agreement that they stated we had to sign electronically in 2 places and initial in 14 places before we would be given directions and access to the rental. I called very upset. I was told just to ignore it. We already had the directions and access code! I think the rental company was yo blame for all of this.

BEWARE this listing states WiFi INACCURATELY!
A group of 4 of us selected this property for a working women's get away weekend. As you might imagine that became very difficult when it came to the unit NOT providing the advertised WiFi in their listing. The greatest surprise came when we arrived, and we learned we had to turn the water on for the entire building! This was listed NO place in the property listing! Being the strong independent professional women that we are, we accomplished this - however had we been 30 years older, we would have turned around and exited the property. If we were using a friend's cabin for the weekend for free or at a grossly reduced rate turning on the water or hot water heater is a given; however, when paying a listing rent through VRBO AND the property is managed by a property management firm, this was unacceptable for our group. Be sure to pack some ice cube trays or grab a bag of ice if you enjoy ice as the freezer works but has no ice trays. The property manager was quick to arrange for a plow to plow the large driveway area during a heavy late spring snowstorm and communicated ahead of the storm what to anticipate and how to be prepared. As regular high-country visitors this was appreciated. I am still cloudy on the garbage situation if we were staying more than 4 nights and extra sheets to fit the pull outs beds was a little bit of a treasure hunt. For an A Frame this is a very roomy and friendly environment - had it not been for an incorrect listing when it comes to WiFi and turning on your own water we would all likely return with our families - however today, the one must have for our group was working WiFi.

Just right
Home was just as represented in the description. Well equipped, clean, plenty of room for our family of 4. No wifi, but great cell signal. In the trees, so feels secluded. Three decks for soaking in the amazing mountain air. Plenty of nearby hiking, which is our favorite activity.

frustrated
I booked this property after spending many hours searching specifically for an A-frame cabin and had a confirmation email and everything. We planned other parts of our trip (booked snowmobiling, tubing, etc.) and then a few weeks later I got an email from Second Home Second Chance telling me that the cabin was double booked and was offered another cabin in it's place. I was told that the cabin owner thought she had booked her cabin for the dates I had already booked but that she had made a mistake and didn't complete her booking. Despite the fact that I had a confirmation number, my reservation was being bumped. So we never got to stay in this cabin. This should have been the point that I canceled and pursued lodgings elsewhere, but I agreed to the other cabin since everything else had already been planned. When we got to the cabin, everything was fine. It was nice. We read the binder with all of the details and saw that we might need to stagger showers since there were 5 of us, my husband, and our 3 teens. We cooked dinner, washed a few dishes, and one person took a quick shower. When the the 2nd person went to shower, no water came out. None. No toilets would flush. Nothing. Also while all of this was happening the temperature upstairs climbed to 76 while downstairs was 54. We did have a fire going in the living room, but nothing in the binder alerted us to the effect that would have to the temperature downstairs. This should be added to the binder. Since the binder had contact information in case of an emergency (no water is an emergency) I texted the number. It took a while for a response and I was told that we just needed to give the cistern time to refill. Several hours went by with still no water. The person from Second Home Second Chance did not seem to think this was an emergency and kept saying it would refill overnight. It didn't. The next morning I called and she said she would send someone to check on it. We were gone most of the day to go snowmobiling. I never got a call back. Finally about 3:00 I texted for an update and was told there was a problem with the cistern filling (which I already knew) and that we would have to move to another cabin, but since it was nearing 5:00 there would be no guarantee that we could get in the driveway since it had not been cleared from the snowfall the night before. So basically... "good luck guys". I will never book anything through Second Home Second Chance again.

It's a beautiful house. Much more spacious than in the pictures. Everything is well thought through. We had everything we need for a great time! As other commented, furnace took a while to kick in but eventually worked fine. Be prepared for the altitude, it's 9,954′ at Fairplay so if you are flying into Denver, make sure you have some time to adjust.
