Our cabin is nestled in the trees on a little over an acre in a mountain setting with easy access to fishing and hiking. An hour and a half to skiing, 45 minutes to Colorado Springs, 30 minutes to the historic mining town of Cripple Creek, the S. Platte River’s “Dream Stream” world class angling & fishing, the Crags, Pike’s Peak Highway & plenty of OHV trails nearby. Enjoy an evening outdoors on the deck, wake-up to hot coffee and nature, unwind from the city life.
28 year old REALTOR and real estate investor who loves the outdoors. Founder of CasaLuxe. Our mission is to connect the world and redefine hospitality with exceptional stays. To open our doors and create and inclusive environment for everyone. To celebrate and share the beauty of each city. When I’m not working - you can find me hiking, finding new places to eat, practicing landscape photography, dog sitting, and enjoying horror movies.

You will also have Carla’s number if you need to get in touch for any reason: questions, comments, insights or the rare property emergencies. We have put so much love into the space to ensure you have a phenomenal stay.
Our cabin is in a rural area and situated in a quiet neighborhood. It is an absolute nature retreat, but is only a few miles from restaurants and 20 minutes from Woodland Park. We are minutes to National Monuments and National Forest. World class fishing and angling is nearby at public and state parks, as well as miles of hiking. The cabin is in a rural accessible by well-maintained unlaced roads. Soak in the peace and quiet and see the wildlife. It is central to various Colorado outdoor activities and state parks. Only about a 45 minute drive to Colorado Springs where you will find every store you may need. It is a 20 minute drive to Woodland Park where you will find grocery stores and Walmart. Due to the rural location, you will not find public transportation and getting an Uber/Lyft could be difficult. You will find plenty of hiking, fishing, hunting, snowshoeing, and many other outdoor activities.
