We used the cabin as a base camp for hunting
It was comfortable and well equipped.
It was clean enough for my wife had she been with me and thats saying something.
We loved the cabin so much, we even entertained one evening! My brother told me if he was staying in the cabin ( he was actually camping at the lake) he would have never left it for the whole stay! đ
Everything was wonderful and Thank You đ
Great stay, secluded location, great views, well built log home
The log home is as depicted in the pictures and in the previous reviews there are a few issues that the property owners are aware of but that did not inhibit our stay - gas smell, moth ball smell, lots of cobwebs on the logs of the home outside, broken picnic table, etc. Again, this did not impact our stay and you are in the woods in a log cabin so should expect some measure of rustic. The cabin is very well built and laid out great for family time. The wood burning stove is fantastic and heated the entire home during the cold snap while we were there. Well stocked kitchen with the essentials. Would suggest a new auto coffee pot & some new linens but small nit and made the suggestions to the owner.
Our stay here could not have been better. We were at Vega for a Celebration of Life and Family reunion the end of August. Many of our family start in the huge cabin at the turn on to Shady Lane. While that cabin is impressive, all that visited us at our cabin absolutely loved it. Clean, homey, great location, everything you could need and obviously well loved and cared for.
We had a very nice stay here in late July. The home is located near Vega Lake although the view of the lake is hindered by thick Aspen trees. These same trees give you a woodsy secluded feeling. The cabin is beautiful and the deck is awesome. This cabin actually had wifi that worked well! There is no cell service at Vega State Park so this was a nice surprise. The driveway had limited room for our big truck and trailer but Vega State Park has a big parking lot that is close to cabin and right on 262 that leads to many trails on Grand Mesa. There is no OHV operation permitted in Vega State Park so you need trailer to the parking lot anyway. Everything in the cabin worked and it was very clean and comfortable. I would definitely recommend đđŒ
Enjoyed staying at this home. Cute deer laying outside when we woke up one morning. If itâs going to be hot bring a fan. Kitchen is very well set up. We also enjoyed lunch and board games on the deck.
First of all this is a very beautiful log cabin! This place advertises "all the comforts of your own home" but yet doesn't have A/C. It was 90 degrees out and probably 85-90 in the house. The water smelled like rotten eggs, and the gas fumes from the snowmobiles stored there made the bunk beds not usable. The property owners only offered us a 50% refund until I had to file a case with VRBO customer service. The owners did make it right, but if I wouldn't have contacted VRBO customer service they wouldn't have. We only stayed one of the 5 nights we booked it for and thats all we could take.
Also, this place is in the middle of nowhere. Vega State Lake has NOTHING to offer as it was so dried up. This place was at least a couple hours from anything fun to do. Not much in the town of Collbran either.
In my opinion, this would be great if they only advertised it as a hunting lodge. Not so great for a summer family stay with small children.
My parents built this place back in 97/98. Was a great family retreat for years. Lots of great memories in the home. I purchased it from them a few years ago to keep it in the family.
Authentic Log Home, perfect location for multiple outdoor activities. Any season, this is the place to be. My favorite time is the Fall where the Aspens are absolutely breathtaking. the views around Vega State Park are amazing and makes for an unforgettable trip. Be sure to bring a camera. Wildlife frequent the cabin, passing through and sometimes stopping for a rest. Deer are frequent, Marmots and Chipmunks are permanent residents on the property. Hummingbirds are plentiful and make for an enjoyable show when feeding. As for Hunting and Fishing, you can hardly find a better location. Vega Reservoir or the lakes on the Mesa, the fishing is great. As for Hunting, there are plentiful Elk and Mule Deer both at the State Park and on the Mesa.
