This beautiful, modern cabin, is showered in sunlight. Just 2.5 miles from downtown, yet a stones throw from all the outdoor adventures in the foothills, Horsetooth Reservoir, Poudre River, mountain biking & hiking. With apple trees, berries & gardens, this quiet country setting is one of the best locations in town. Soak in the Colorado sunshine w/ the passive solar design. Relax in the evenings taking in the mountain sunsets while enjoying a fire pit on the back porch.
The house
This beautiful modern cabin is truly one of the best retreats in the Fort Collins area. The one bedroom, one bathroom house was thoughtfully designed with comfort and aesthetics in mind. The passive solar design showers the home in sunlight while the in-radiant heating & gas fireplace provide all the warmth and comfort anyone can desire on those cold winter days. The back porch with fire-pit is the perfect place to take in our amazing Colorado sunsets.
The cabin itself sits on one acre of land, next door to the hosts personal residence. So you'll have all the privacy you need while having easy access to your host if anything is needed during your stay.
We are in process of transforming this land into a little food forest. On the property, you'll find apple trees, berry bushes, gardens, chickens (with as many eggs as you'd like). We do have kids, a dog (Amigo), and a cat (Rosie) who you'll likely see running around the property during your stay. Two Commuter Bikes to get into town are on site and can be used at no cost. This space is really set up well for 1-2 people. However, we did just install a sofa bed, should you need the extra sleeping space.
The Location
The location of this cabin is just 2.5 miles due west of downtown. Easily bike-able. The short route is straight down Laporte Avenue to downtown. Or your can connect up to the Poudre River Trail system and take the scenic route along the river. Outdoor adventure is also right out the back door. We're also a short bike ride to the foothills where you can mountain bike, hike, or play around on Horsetooth Reservoir (paddle boarding is one of our favorite things on a hot summer day). Lory State park and Horsetooth Mountain park are both within 10 minutes where you can tackle any of these activities. Or, if you're looking for something more extreme, heading up the Poudre Canyon is an option.
Some of our favorite places close by are:

We love this neighborhood. When you stay here, you get the peace, quite, and slower pace of the country with the convenience of being close to everything you'll need or want during your stay.
Close to great trails - Poudre River Trail. Very bike-able location to downtown. And if public transit is your thing, there's a bus route at the corner of Laporte and Sunset.
Please - no shoes in house if muddy. Additionally, please no pets as we have other animals on the property. This is a no smoking property.
