Our vacation cabin, also known as Cozy Cottage and The Hobbitt House, is located among the aspen and pine trees on the side of a mountain about four miles from Cripple Creek, Colorado. The bottom floor has eight sides, and there is a bedroom loft. The best amenity it offers is: HOT TUB!!! It's at the bottom left of this picture, off the deck.
This shot was taken from the loft, down into the living room. The two stained glass panels look like dancing athletes to me. There were two more sections of library shelves in this room. Big Bore enjoyed reading all the aviation books available. I brought along my own reading material--Stephen King's The Shining, which is the perfect creepy book for holing up in Colorado.
The living room opens into the kitchen. Big Bore was sous chef, while I washed dishes at a sink that's in an alcove left of the refrigerator, not in view. That black spot next to the stove is a dishwasher, but I've never used one before (true!!) and was afraid I'd muck it up. 
Ahhh! Here's the sunset, as seen from the hot tub. Does life get any better than this?Tomorrow: Aspen Gold

That is so pretty. Do you guys rent the same cabin each time you go out there? Just curious.
This is the first time we've been to this one. I just cruised the Internet last winter until I found what sounded like we wanted. You never know what you're going to get, for sure, but this place surpassed expectations.
Oooh, what a cozy little cabin you were able to find, all nestled away! Looks like a heavenly retreat!
Ahhh I would never want to leave.
Finally--the hot tub photos!!! You had the camera pointing the wrong way? Beautiful scenery. I always yearn for New England, especially Connecticut, the third week of October. Is supposed to be 47 here Sat with rain and Tahoe will have it's first snow. Since we froze until June 12th, it was a short season this year!! thanks for sharing the beautiful pics!
