Property Description
Escape to the Colorado mountains in this beautiful A-frame lakefront cabin in the gated Big Elk Meadows community, where peaceful mornings by the water, wildlife sightings and star-filled dark skies are part of everyday life. Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac with very little traffic, this special retreat offers the privacy buyers dream about while providing year-round access and an incredible setting for gathering with family and friends. A flagstone path connects the cabin to the lake, and outdoor living comes naturally with a canoe and paddles, Adirondack chairs, hammock, gas grill, outdoor gas fireplace and multiple spaces to relax, entertain or simply listen to the sounds of the mountains. Inside, thoughtful improvements blend modern comfort with classic cabin character. The custom kitchen and millwork were completed in 2022 to maximize storage and feature deep pull-out drawers, energy-efficient appliances and an induction cooktop. Upgraded lighting, newer flooring, fresh 2026 interior paint and a high-efficiency EPA 2020-certified Osburn wood-burning fireplace make the cabin comfortable and inviting throughout the seasons. A 200-amp electrical service was completed in 2022, while custom built-in twin mattresses over storage add clever additional functionality. Beyond the front door, Big Elk Meadows delivers the Colorado lifestyle people come to the mountains to find, with private lakes for fishing and non-motorized water recreation, a seasonal heated swimming pool, tennis and pickleball, hiking and abundant opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. Surrounded by spectacular mountain country and positioned between the charm, dining and shops of Lyons and the adventures of Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park, this is more than a cabin. It is a place to slow down, reconnect, entertain the people you love and make memories at the lake for years to come.
