The Alpine Haven • Mountain Views • Near Wolf Creek • Fire Pit • Pet Friendly

Welcome to The Alpine Haven

Welcome to The Alpine Haven, your peaceful mountain retreat nestled in the heart of Colorado's breathtaking San Juan Mountains. Whether you're planning a ski vacation, fly-fishing adventure, hiking trip, ATV weekend, or simply looking for a quiet escape to reconnect with family and friends, you'll feel right at home here.

Our beautifully updated cabin combines modern comforts with classic mountain charm. Large picture windows fill the home with natural light while showcasing the surrounding mountain scenery. Enjoy the privacy of a quiet neighborhood with no homes directly in front of the cabin, allowing you to truly relax and take in the beauty around you.

Wake each morning with a cup of coffee on the spacious front porch while watching the sun come up and illuminate the Sangre de Cristo mountain range. See hummingbirds, deer, and the occasional fox wander through the area. In the evening, gather around the fire pit beneath an incredible blanket of stars, grill dinner on the propane grill, or simply unwind in one of the Adirondack chairs after a day of adventure.

Great cabin for 2 adults and our dog. We loved sitting on the front porch watching the sunrise over the beautiful Colorado landscape. Peaceful, quiet neighborhood, great place to be when exploring several CO mining towns. The views of the sky and the milky way are INCREDIBLE from this property. Everything was clean and we felt very comfortable staying here.
