Wonderful cabin!
We really enjoyed our month at Paul’s Cabin! So peaceful & relaxing; it was the perfect vacation! Everything was as described & it was very comfortable & cozy. This was hands down the best equipped vacation rental we have ever stayed in. We enjoyed the wood-burning fireplace, views of the mountains & hiking around the cabin. We would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great getaway.

Great Cabin!
Great views and a great cabin! Probably one of the most “home-like” rentals I have ever stayed at. The home was outfitted with all the necessities and then some! This made getting settled in very easy. Would definitely stay again

Family Fun
Paul’s cabin is the perfect refuge for our family—no traffic or city noise, gorgeous 360-degree vistas in quiet solitude and great outdoor spaces to watch the sun set behind the mountains. Plenty of space for kids and adults alike. Kids loved the games, pool table, table shuffleboard, and ping pong table.

Relaxing Vacation
This property is very nice. It would be great for a large group or family. We had 5 guest and still had 6 beds we didn't use. Outstanding Cabin. The views are breath taking from this property. Would highly recommend this property. Owner was also very helpful through whole process.

Paul’s Cabin
Beautiful cabin, lots of room to spread out. Property owner/manager communicated with us constantly. Views wrre spectacular. Only drawback was the road to get there (that the owner has nothing to do with), rough and do not tow a trailer above 10 mph and no cars that sit low. Otherwise loved the cabin and the stay.

Micro wedding visit
Thank you so much for allowing us to use your property for our micro wedding! It was absolutely beautiful! It was the first time for half of our family to visit Colorado and they couldn’t get enough of the view. For anyone interested in booking the BNB I recommend stocking up before check-in and be mindful of the road leading to the property.

A wonderful getaway
A perfect rustic home for our family. One request though, we needed more glasses, like wine glasses (there were two). We had a somewhat sick 10 year old, so didn't explore much, but did enjoy the fire pit for smores. and played several of the games. Your book shelf was much to our own taste, we also had several of the same books.

Beautiful views of snow-covered hills and mountains!
The house is not too far away from activities like snow-tubing in Leadville or shopping in Buena Vista, but it is far enough from town so you can truly 'getaway' and take in the breathtaking landscapes. The roads are well maintained, so driving after it snows is not as scary as it seems for those of us coming from Texas :). The pool table, shuffleboard, and games were a great plus! On our first night, there was approx. ten inches of snow, so we stayed on-site the following day playing games and enjoying the snow-covered grounds; it was a relaxing and enjoyable experience for everyone in our group. I would book this property again and I recommend it to anyone who needs a break from the hustle and bustle, time to reconnect with family, or just some peace. By the way, the heaters work great, so if you're from warmer climates and not a fan of the cold, you'll be warm and cozy in-doors.

Beautiful Cabin and Majestic Views
My family and I (husband, two daughters their husbands and 4 month old babies) all stayed for a week. The cabin is very clean, beautiful, and the views are amazing. We loved having a fully stocked kitchen with pots and pans, blender etc! Made cooking easy and you don’t need to bring anything! Paul has thought of everything and has supplied so much like games and movies and books. We had trouble trying to figure out the satellite TV and ended up just watching movies when we did watch something. The only thing that we did not like which is nothing against the cabin is how far we had to travel in the neighborhood to get to the highway to go to BV or to get to the house from the main road. We were four wheeling daily so packing a heavy loaded trailer through roads that are a little rough took about 30 min of driving (bc it’s a bit rough) to get to the house or the main road was kind of time consuming. We would definitely pick to stay here again especially if we are just going to stay in for a week and didn’t have to drive as much. But it was well liked by us all!

Hartsel Cabin
The facility was spacious enough for 7 adults to feel that we had adequate space and privacy, but good common space for family times as well. Our frustration was in the lack of cleanliness--the refrigerator and the stove were both extremely dirty inside and appeared to not have been cleaned for some time. The only other concern was the road leading up to the cabin, which is clearly beyond the responsibility of the owner, but was very rough.

Beautiful views but VERY BAD road!
The 9.8 mile road to get to the cabin was TERRIBLE. The road was so rutted I am surprised my dads car made it. We were in a truck and almost slide off the road a few times. The house had beautiful views however, coffee grounds left in the coffee pot, no kitchen hand towels, dirty dishes in the dishwasher and there was all kinds of dirt and food under the table and furniture in the living room. The all around deck is awesome but needs more support beams otherwise one day they may fall through. Overall not bad but won’t book again unless the road is fixed.

Birthday weekend getaway
I had family come in from Illinois to spend my birthday weekend with me. The cabins layout was perfect. The beds were clean and most of them were comfortable. There was enough space for the younger kids to have their own space away from the adults. The owners communicated with me and were very nice and easy to deal with.
