Beautiful and serene

This is a wonderful place if you are looking to experience nature and peace. Also great for traveling to Breckenridge. Just make sure you know that it is a few miles of dirt roads (choose the appropriate car) and bring your Roku or other set up if you want any TV. Property was wonderful in all ways!

Fantastic Cabin

What a wonderful cabin in the woods. It was so relaxing. Heather was great, provided us all the details we needed and reached out to make sure we were doing well. The place is comfortable with all the amenities. We saw a fox on our way out :) Highly recommend this cabin/location.

So cozy!!

This place is so cute and cozy. The TV doesn’t have any streaming services, so if you don’t want to watch DVDs from the 2000s then you should bring a device to connect. It’s a bit of a drive to get to from the highway but it felt so secluded from the world we absolutely loved it.

Anniversary Bliss

We came to celebrate our 38th yr. anniversary and the Fox Den did not disappoint us! Heather was attentive and made sure we were doing okay and that she was available if we needed her! We ate dinner at the Alma salon, hiked out back, enjoyed amazing stars and reconnected! Thanks Heather for making this the best anniversary ever!

Adorable!

Heather's cabin was so adorable, clean, had everything we needed (extra linen, games, DVDs, bathroom supplies, kitchen supplies and common ingredients, and Internet good enough to stream Netflix to the TV), and had a surprisingly spacious kitchen! The three of us, me, my husband, and our golden, enjoyed the snow, the sled, and were very comfortable. Heather was also very responsive whenever we had a question. Thank you for being such a great host! I will emphasize that the altitude is no joke, even for someone who lives at 7400 ft. If you think that altitude might be an issue for you, you might want to acclimate to a lower elevation, like Breckenridge, for a few days before venturing to 11k ft. Thank you again, Heather! We really enjoyed your cabin!

Private & Cozy Retreat

Enjoyed a few days of relaxing and peaceful time in this cute and comfortable little cabin. The host was very helpful and responded quickly to any concerns we had about road conditions etc. Adorable pictures and art of foxes throughout the cabin. We didn’t get to experience seeing wildlife during our stay in late March, but read of many other visitors who did. Would reserve again happily.

The perfect get away

we had just an amazing experience staying here although we did not get to see a fox. Everything else was top-notch. It was secluded enough, giving us a true feel of a private cabin up on the mountain. The property was true to the listing. The host is phenomenal and stayed in contact the entire trip checking in multiple times with us 10/10 would recommend we will be back!!

Fantastic Getaway

My husband and I came to the fox den with our two Golden Retrievers for a birthday getaway. The cabin itself is wonderful, updated, well appointed, cutely decorated, very clean, and cozy! The bed was SOOOOO comfortable and the water pressure in the shower was much better than expected. The fireplace added to the ambience and provided very sufficient heating. Despite staying over 2 snowstorms, we didn't have any major issues accessing the cabin. I will say we have a 4runner with excellent tires and I would heed Heather's warning about 4WD/AWD during the winter. I would not recommend any inexperienced winter drivers stay here, as we passed several accidents and people who had gone off the road - route 9 was closed off and on by the pass as well. The roads were plowed (and someone even plowed the driveway for us, thank you!!). Our dogs had a great time in the snow and we did see a fox in the neighborhood while we were here. We ventured out to Breck, Alma, and Fairplay and enjoyed local food and fun. Heather was an AMAZING host. She was very accommodating to us in case we ended up snowed. Her response time was lightening fast and she made sure we were taken care of. I would absolutely come back here to stay and would recommend this place to others!
