Cripple Creek Cabin Rentals - There are many
beautiful areas in Colorado and a wide variety of cabin
rentals to choose from throughout the state, but we
recently visited the Pikes Peak area and thoroughly
enjoyed renting a cabin here.

Colorado Mountain Cabins manages a number of
cabin rentals in the area and in early June of 2010 we
rented their Cabin #13 - Bear Foot Getaway.  Located
about 48 miles west of Colorado Springs and about 5
miles north of Cripple Creek, this 1 level cedar cabin is
nestled against a hill and is surrounded by beautiful
aspen and pine trees. Check-in went smoothly, and
good directions made it easy to find our cabin.
The cabin has a stained cedar finish on the outside. Inside, there are wood laminate floors and
ceilings made of tongue and groove pine. The cabin decor is very warm and inviting, with a great
mountain cabin, bear theme throughout. The living room has a sofa, loveseat, chair and ottoman,
along with a built-in flat screen TV and a DVD/Video player that is mounted above the gas fireplace.
Satellite TV was available and there was even a basket next to the fireplace that was filled with DVD's
and Videos.

The kitchen is spacious and equipped with a breakfast bar, which worked great for meals when we
weren't dining out or on the go. There are two large bedrooms in this cabin with comfortable, queen
size beds and nice furnishings. There is also one pretty good sized bathroom. No laundry facilities
exist in this cabin, but this did not cause us any problems.

This cabin rental was just perfect for the three of us, and offered a nice alternative to a hotel room. A
large porch along the front of the cabin had ample seating and a gas barbecue. Grill your favorite
burger or steak while enjoying the mountain scenery and wildlife.  A hot tub is located just off the side
porch with great views of the pines and aspens that are plentiful around the cabin. After a full day of
exploring, the hot tub was very relaxing and peaceful.
Here are some pictures taken during our June 1-4, 2010 trip:

The Cripple Creek area has much to see and do, but is probably better suited for families with older
kids. There are many historic buildings and museums in both Cripple Creek and Victor and there is
a wealth of old west mining history and remnants of mines everywhere. The
Mollie Kathleen mine
tour
is wonderfully done and the District Museum is very interesting. Take in some scenery with a 45
minute round-trip train ride between Cripple Creek and the remnants of the Anaconda mining camp.

While you are in the area be sure and check out
Mueller State Park a little bit to the north, drive up to
the
American Eagles Overlook, and explore many of the hiking trails in the area. Just make sure that
you give yourself some time to acclimate to the area, as Cripple Creek is about 9400 feet above sea
level and it takes your body some time to adjust. Be sure and drink plenty of water while you are in
the area. There are also ranches in the area like the
Grey Wolf Ranch that offer trail rides if you
would like to explore the area by horseback.
