About this space

Riverfront, 4 bed 2 bath, spectacular mountain views

This charming family friendly log cabin home with an open floor plan has 4 bedrooms ( 1 king, 2 queen, 1 double, and 2 twin) with 2 full baths. Our cabin sits on 5 acres of riverfront property, just a short drive from the town center of Creede. A large living/dining room area with a wood burning stove, has an abundance of windows with amazing views. Fully equipped kitchen, dishwasher, microwave, washer & dryer, outdoor grill. Enclosed sun porch with sundeck/loft for an added sleeping area-blow up mattresses available for your use. Sit on the outdoor porch to watch the sunrise with your morning coffee or in the evening with your favorite adult beverage. Enjoy the natural beauty of the outdoors. Enjoy hiking, fishing, & exploring along the riverfront property within a few short steps from the front door. A rugged marked path with makeshift stairs lead you to the water's' edge of the Rio Grande. Picnic area with picnic table and fire pit. A wonderful setting for the entire family. The dams usually open for run-off in June, but fish can still be caught from the bank. By mid-July the water will have receded to allow fishing from the rocks on the riverbed. We invite you to share the magic of Creede and the Rio Grande. You will not be disappointed.

For experienced hikers or ATVs, a spectacular hike is up to Wheeler National Monument--up Pool Table Road. Accessible by ATV, horseback, or hiking. It's about a 15 min. hike with several nasty water crossings up to volcanic ash rock formations. Hikers would probably want to take camping gear and go up one day, spend the night and return the next day. If you want to go by ATV but don't have your own, they can be rented in town.

If outdoor adventures is not your first love, you can enjoy just sitting on the porch with a never ending view or in the cabin with the wood stove crackling and looking out the windows at the beautiful scenery. That alone can make anyone realize what a special place our cabin really is.....enjoy.

The Creede Repertory Theatre (CRT) schedule and tickets are available on line and at the box office. The full season calendar, downloadable brochure and ticket passes and packages are all available.

Speaks

About Beverly Johnson

About Beverly Johnson My husband and I with our three children, camped for years at Marshall Park Campground, just down the road from where our cabin is today- we fished the Rio Grande River for trout every morning. Camp songs and s'mores in the evening. The children went to Cheley summer camp in Estes Park, but when camp was over we all headed for Creede. As we all grew older, lives changed, but we were still a camping, fishing and hiking family, with our love for the friendly community of Creede. So... we traded the RV and camping in for a fabulous cabin and we all really love it. One of our daughters has learned to catch and clean her own trout, and our son, grandson, and friends LOVE hiking in the mountains. Our daughter has recently taken up rock hunting and intends to learn how to cut, polish and and make jewelry out of amethyst she gathered at Last Chance Mine, a must see. We often have a sing-along with the banjo and old time songs. A wonderful space for everyone to be together and make great family memories and good old fashioned fun. Why Beverly Johnson chose Creede Our nearly 1,000 feet of river front along the Rio Grand river is across the river from another family home, and we love being close to Creede. With 5 acres, we are fairly isolated. And if our growing family wants to camp at Marshall Park Campground, they are 'right around the corner' from us. Fishing and hiking are our favorite activities. The dam opens up water in June, so river flow is rapid and full between the two banks. Same number of fish, but a little harder to catch. Toward mid July the river has lowered and fly fishing is easier--you can walk out on the rocks into the river. Lots of fish can be caught from the banks of our property. Love Lake is always a great place to fish--on up Middle Creek Rd. Other great creeks, lakes, etc. you can easily learn about fishing spots at "Ramble House." a sporting goods store in town. What makes this Cabin unique I will share my recipe for trout 'sauce, just in case.... Melt about 1/3 stick Butter 2 T chopped onions (prefer green onions) Saute onion in butter until soft Add 1 T lemon juice Enough for at least 2 good sized trout. I usually flour the fish and I leave the heads on. Best if trout is cooked in cast iron skillet over an open fire. Our youngest daughter (as a little girl) BEGGED us all for the fried trout eyes!
