Lakeview Mountain Cabin with Wraparound Deck, Hot Tub & Wood Burning Fireplace.

The Bartlett: A Premium Lakeview Log Cabin at the Base of Mt. Elbert

Experience all the beauty that Twin Lakes has to offer. The Bartlett is a premium three-bedroom, three-bathroom log cabin perched at 9,500 feet at the base of Mt. Elbert. Set on a private one-acre lot and a short walk from the historic Twin Lakes Village, the property is surrounded by towering pines and a tranquil aspen grove. Spectacular views of Twin Lakes and the surrounding Rockies set the backdrop for cozy rustic furnishings, a wood-burning stone fireplace, and a copper soaking tub. The Bartlett is your perfect Colorado mountain escape.

The Space

Sleeping up to six guests in three beautifully appointed bedrooms, The Bartlett blends classic log cabin charm with modern comfort. Vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows fill the main living area with natural light and frame uninterrupted views of Twin Lakes and the surrounding peaks. The stone wood-burning fireplace anchors the living room. Perfect for unwinding after a day on the trails. The chef's kitchen comes fully equipped and opens onto a dining area built for long meals with family and friends.

The primary bedroom on the second floor, includes a private balcony and a private bathroom. The main floor bedroom features its own en-suite bath with a copper soaking tub, a true cabin luxury. The walkout basement includes a third bedroom and bathroom. The basement den adds an entertainment center and a gas fireplace, ideal for movie nights or letting the kids spread out.

The Outdoors

The wraparound deck is the heart of the property. Soak in the private hot tub under an aspen canopy by day, or take in some of the darkest, most star-filled skies in Colorado by night. The Bartlett comes with a 4-car garage, The Barn, perfect for storing skis, bikes, ATVs, and gear, or simply keeping your vehicle out of the snow.
