Creede

More than just a cabin, this is a handcrafted mountain hideaway, a place where neighbors pitched in during the build, artisans left their mark in every finish, and the spirit of Colorado’s wilderness is carried in every log.Tucked high on Creede’s scenic Bachelor Loop, this 21-acre off-grid retreat borders national forest, offering unmatched privacy, sweeping views, and direct access to endless mountain adventure.

Built from 8” D  logs harvested on and milled onsite, the cabin is as authentic as it is inviting. Every detail reflects true Colorado craftsmanship, from custom live-edge trim to Amish-built alder cabinets and double-pane Low-E windows, the space carries a timeless quality that feels both rugged and refined. Modern off-grid comforts blend seamlessly with the rustic character. A permitted spring feeds UV-filtered water to the cabin, solar power is supported by a 14kW Kohler generator, and propane provides heat and instant hot water. These thoughtful systems make the home fully self-sufficient without sacrificing convenience.

A covered deck sets the stage for slow mornings and privacy, while unique touches like a copper backsplash and a cast-iron cowboy hot tub outdoors invite relaxation and connection to the land. Multiple building sites on the property also offer the opportunity to expand with a larger home while keeping the existing cabin as a guest retreat or weekend getaway.

Not just a retreat, this cabin is an invitation to live simply, surrounded by craftsmanship, community, and the wild beauty of Creede.

LISTING AGENT:

Creede becomes 'home' to all those who visit. It is a magical place I found some 38 years ago while on vacation and Dale is a native. Dale and I are locals who find joy in creating relationships with our customers and clients. We love Creede in all seasons; skiing, hiking, biking, and riding the high country on our horses. Let us help you find your 'home'.
