    What's special

    Cozy fireplaceRefined finishesPrivate driveMeticulously maintained cabin
    Your National Forest Sanctuary: The Ultimate Mountain Basecamp backing directly to National Forest at the end of a private drive, this meticulously maintained cabin offers a rare blend of refined finishes and rugged accessibility. It is the ideal retreat for those seeking absolute tranquility, world-class hunting, and endless recreation right from the back door. Perched in total seclusion among mature pines and aspens, the property serves as a literal gateway to the wilderness. The landscape is framed by sweeping, cinematic views of the Hermosa Cliffs and the tip of Grayrock—the majestic northwest peak of Graysill Mountain. On quiet afternoons, the faint whistle of the historic narrow-gauge train echoes through the valley, and for the adventurous, the Animas River and tracks are reachable via a scenic hike from your own boundary. This isn’t just a cabin in the woods; it’s a sophisticated mountain residence designed for efficiency, durability and style. Custom features include beautifully stained concrete floors and a cozy fireplace, balancing modern elegance with high-altitude warmth. 2 bedrooms plus a dedicated flex space with a Murphy bed provide ample room for guests. Turnkey Ready: Sold fully furnished and equipped with a detached garage, it is perfectly positioned as functional vacation rental or a private family legacy. Owners and guests enjoy access to "Columbine Lake". So, whether you are an outdoor enthusiast, avid skier (just minutes from Purgatory!), exploring the forest trails, or simply breathing in the fresh mountain air, this property offers a quality of life—and a quality of finish—that is rarely found in such a pristine location.
