Mountainside Fairplay Cabin w/ Game Room & Sauna!

Reviews

• Great mountain home for family!

  5/5

  My family of four (2 adult children) really enjoyed our August stay! The home is laid out well, nice decor and comfortable with lots of nice amenities (large patio deck with 5 chairs, outdoor grill, electric fireplace, sauna, ping pong table, washer/dryer, etc!)! We enjoyed the gameroom downstairs and the deck chairs with beautiful views of the mountains (amazing sunsets and sunrises!) It takes about 18 minutes to get from the main road up to the house, so you are definitely in the mountain, which is what we were looking for. The road is not paved, so 4WD is needed. The house is close enough to both the town of FairPlay and Alma for grocery or restaurants and only about 40 mins from Breckenridge. Lots of good hiking trails and fishing spots nearby too. We loved our stay and are so glad we found the Mountainside Cabin! It was a lovely home away from home!

• Great home base

  5/5

  Property was beautiful and a great central home base for our week exploring north and south of the area.Drive up the mountain side is a dirt road but an easy drive without snow. Look for elk and moose on your way up! We saw them early in the am and right before sunset each day.Town of Fairplay is small but has a decent grocery store, gas station, and a few casual places to eat. Breck and Frisco is a short drive north if you need more.Would highly recommend this vrbo and imagine it's so pretty with snow. Kitchen was well equipped and was nice to have a washer and dryer (dishwasher and laundry pods were there already). Only minor improvement would be hangers in the closets. There are no dressers and there were only a few hangers in each closet to store clothing.

• Nice Cabin

  4/5

  The cabin was nice. The last mile of the road getting to it is a little rough but I've seen worse. Need a 4WD if it snowed most likely. The only problem was everyone battled altitude sickness. The cabin is about 11,000 feet up. All the stores sell oxygen canisters for $15/bottle which gives you about 260 hits. You need about 10 hits to recoup if you do much. Some of our crew sit up a couple nights in chairs to sleep. The furniture and beds were too low to the ground. The master bed(king) was below knee level. There were no box springs, just matress on the frame. The beds and the furniture are very low and hard to get in and out of. That and the low oxygen is my only complaint.
