My family has stayed at Hygge House in 2019 & 2020 for our annual fall staycation. It’s a great location, only being 30min from Estes Park & Nederland. The interior is super charming, but the best thing is the backyard. We spent each morning having tea and coffee by the stream running steps from the house. It was perfect!

Cozy Cabin with Amazing Views
Guest review “We stayed two nights and wished we stayed longer! A cabin with all the essentials and a host ready to provide you the real Colorado experience was exactly what we were looking for. Cozy enough for a whole family or just a couple trying to get away, you won’t be disappointed renting this cabin. The 360 views of the surrounding mountains and a personal pond at your disposal is something you’ll never forget! Clint, the host graciously gave us a tour of his majestic property and provided a phone number for trail horseback riding literally NEXT door, GREAT experience as well.”
