The remodeled Elk & Hare Mountain Cabin brings the serenity and wildlife of the National Forest to your front porch but is only 5 min from the galleries and restaurants downtown. This 2BR/ 1 Ba / 1 sleeping loft cabin sits on 1+ acres in the desirable Cedar Creek area set into the National Forest and can accommodate 5-6 adults. The cabin offers central AC and heating, fireplace, a full kitchen, 3 TVs, dishwasher, washer/dryer, and a wrap-around deck perfect for dining and wildlife watching.
The space
This stylishly updated cabin includes two large bedrooms, one bathroom, and a sleeping loft. The full kitchen is stocked with everything you need to prepare delicious meals that can be enjoyed inside or outside where the ponderosa pines sway in the breeze and give you endless views of the vast forest. You will not believe the amount of deer, elk, and wild horses that walk through the property as they move in and out of the Lincoln National Forest. This cabin has a private driveway and a secluded spot dug into the side of the mountain that will make you feel free to relax as you listen to the woodpeckers softly drumming in the day and crickets chirping at night. If you stay very quiet, there is even a small fox that can be see exploring the property from time to time. The inside was remodeled in May 2022 and includes fresh bedding, new paint and flooring, comfy couch, 3 Roku TVs, and wifi. Bedroom 1 has a king bed, bedroom 2 has a queen bed and a pack-n-play crib, and the loft has two twin beds. The cabin has central air conditioning, central heat, and a wood pellet fire place with thermostat if you prefer for it to heat the cabin. Outside is a gas grill and gas firepit. There are miles of hike and bike trails in the national forest within walking distance or a very short drive. Albertsons grocery is only 2.5 miles away.
Guest access
The 1+ acres extend quite a way behind the cabin and make for a fantastic short hike for the adventurous (very steep!). The top of the hill has a clearing that provides the perfect spot for a private sunset view.
