| My husband and I stayed at your cabin 10-3 to 10-11-2009, and had the best time we have ever had in Colorado! In fact, we liked it so much, immediately upon our return we booked 2 more weeks the following summer. The cabin had everything we needed and more. Staying at your cabin is not like staying at a typical rental property, it is like staying at someone’s home. A lot of time and thought has gone into making this cabin a perfect get away, and we cannot wait until we can return in the summer. The location is perfect for day trips to just about all areas in this part of Colorado, and if you like to take photographs, you will be in heaven. We packed a cooler with food and drinks (which was at the cabin) every day and set out to a new destination. Thanks!!!! Larry and Debbie Lee |

| This was our sixth year in a row to visit Brian's cabin for the 4th of July. The fireworks and festival and casinos in nearby Central City and Blackhawk were a lot of fun. We hiked a beautiful, easy hike at nearby Nederland. The cabin was much improved over years past and we greatly appreciate the time and hard work Brian puts in to making our stay enjoyable. We are forever grateful for his making our vacations completely satisfying. The best day of our stay was the one that we didn't leave the cabin at all. |

We had such a wonderful vacation staying at Brian's cabin! We rented ATV's for the first 2 days and just explored around!! We drove to Rocky Mountain National Park and then back to Estes Park the next day. We enjoyed Waterworld park too. We all enjoyed the campfires, the hammock and especially the hummingbirds. Brian was so nice paying extra attention to detail. He left alot of information about the different things you could do. He left directions to the local stores which also was extremely helpful.We all so enjoyed Colorado!!!

| My family and I stayed in Brian's cabin June 13th - 19th (2009) and had a wonderful time. It was pretty much everything we expected from the pictures and descriptions from this site. My 4 boys (17, 15, 13, 10), my wife, and I stayed comfortably in this little gem of a hide-away in the mountains of Colorado. We took the advice of stocking of groceries... pans, dishes, cups, silverware were all provided by Brian which was nice. Everything worked great! The view and setting of the cabin is fantastic... easily we could have stayed several more weeks. We also had 4 ATVs delivered to the cabin (also recommended by Brian)... and had a blast exploring the Rockies... we rode 60miles in two days... literally, 5 miles up the road from the cabin and you are in the wilderness (Rockies). I would easily recommend this to anyone; already I have a lot of co-workers looking at this cabin now. Hopefully, my family and I will return to this cabin next year. If you get a chance to rent a cabin, this is the one to rent! Probably my favorite part was the wonderful stream flowing just down from the cabin (20yds). Brian setup a table with 2 chairs... it was just awesome. |

We really enjoyed staying at this cabin. It was very cozy and comfortable. Loved the pellet fireplace, the loft, the conveniences of home. TV, movies, fridge, stove etc all made our stay so nice and easy. The bed was really comfortable and the location couldn't have been nicer. The stream gurgling outside was really beautiful.
On our first day there we rented 4 wheelers and drove up the street into the park where we had one of the most memorable experiences of any of our trips. We were alone, really alone with the most amazing scenery. Even though I'd never ridden them before, it was really fun. We went up some pretty hairy trails to get as high as we could. It seemed we were in the clouds. Fantastic!
We did some gambling in Blackhawk which is really close, and won. I think I've found my new gambling spot since the casino's are all non-smoking. HOORAY for that, I can breathe. We did some shopping on Pearl street, bought some lovely artwork. then Hiking at Mt Senita in Boulder. We ate at the Dubai teahouse and loved the pizza there.
The cabin was clean and comfortable. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend staying there to anyone. |

| This is the 5th time I've stayed in Brian's cabin in the last 3 years! Brian continually works hard to upgrade this gem of a cabin in Black Hawk, Colorado. Last weekend, me, 6 of my girlfriends and my 6 month old baby all stayed in Brian's cabin and had the BEST time. It is very relaxing and a nice way to get away from the city for the weekend. This was the first time I'd been to the cabin in the fall and the changing of the leaves was beautiful along with the great wheather. However, this cabin is also awesome in the snow too- my nephews (ages 10 and 12) LOVE to come to this cabin in the winter and play in the snow. Brian's cabin is well worth your money and vacation time! Don't miss it! |

| We honeymooned in Brian's cabin June 9th thru 15th. It couldn't have been any better! The cabin is nice, cozy and comfortable, and well stocked with the basics (and them some). It is private, yet close to anything you want to do. Absolutely great location. We were happy hanging out in the cabin and at the creek, and also explored the roads and towns around the area. Met a few locals, went to Rocky Mountain Nat'l Park, drove up Mt. Evans, even panned for gold in the creek! Had a great time at this cabin, loved it!!!!!! |

| We just returned from a wonderful week at Brian's cabin. It was the most relaxing vacation we have had in years. Brian was most hospitable and available by phone or email the entire week of our stay. Recommend visiting Red Rock Ampitheater and hiking the loop starting at the trading post. Also recommend spending some time in Boulder - especially, the hiking trails located in Settler's Park. Golden Gate Canyon State Park was also one of our best outings, and offered the best views of the surrounding mountain range. Best dining was the Red Lion, which is just outside of Boulder. Beau Jo's Pizza in Idaho Springs was also noteworthy. The three-pounder, although a little pricy at $30, was very fresh and not the least bit greasy (they put the toppings under the cheese). |

| My husband and I stayed at this wonderful cabin from 8/26 through 9/2. By the time our vacation ended we truly did not want to leave! We’ve been to Colorado many times in our younger years, and in the past we always camped. We found it was very nice to have a cabin to go back to every night, especially during those rainy nights! (Not to mention the wonderful bed) We did not need for anything---Brian has the cabin very well stocked, and information was always handy, including his phone number in case we had questions. (We didn’t---he has everything!) We LOVED early mornings down at the Creek, drinking our coffee with a good book, the wonderful scent of the trees and the earth, listening to the water racing across the rocks – it was the perfect way to start the day. This location is very central to many activities-Mt. Evans, Estes Park, Boulder/Denver, Breckenridge, Rocky Mountain National Park, Winter Park, St. Mary’s Glacier, several Colorado wineries, etc. White water rafting is nearby (it was too late in the season for us though) It’s just wonderful—thank you for sharing your mountain home with us Brian! |

| "Brian's Cabin" as my daughter calls it, is truly the best VRBO property we have ever stayed in. We have stayed here twice. We have ATV's, however the first trip we did not bring ours, so we did as Brian suggested and rented them. We LOVED the fact that we could jump on our bikes and be on the mountain within a few minutes. We had to go back and take our own bikes! We have incredible pictures of my family of 4 on a mountain top with glaciers all around us! The cabin is adorable, and I love the well stocked kitchen. We really enjoy the cozy feeling of playing hard all day and having a wonderful meal, while have a great fire and watching one of the many DVD's Brian supplies! Having stayed in dozens of VRBO properties throughout Colorado, we would suggest this one above all others. We look forward to when we can go back! |

My wife and I spent a fabulous weekend at the cabin in mid-June. We have lived in Denver for more than 12 years and I had no idea there was such spectacluar scenery so close to Blackhawk. We followed Brian's suggestion of heading towards the mining town of Apex from the cabin and went exploring. While the roads would be passable by car, I would recommend a 4WD as it was rocky and fairly rough. We evenutally found a way to the Moffat tunnel and later to Rollinsville. From there, we returned on Highway 119 to Blackhawk.
We thoroughly loved the cabin and its ambiance. Coffee in the morning and a cocktail at dinner by the creek was soooooo peaceful and relaxing. Our only regret was not spending more time at the cabin Saturday evening to enjoy a campfire and stare at the stars. We'll have to leave that experience for a return trip (hopefully, soon!) |

| My husband and I rented Brian's cabin for 5 weeks from the end of Feb through March. What a wonderful experience! Brian prepared for our lengthy stay so well and it became our home away from home. The master bed was so comfortable, the kitchen stocked so well and all amenities for a long stay were there. We enjoyed the walks up the mountain road and used the cabin as a base from which we explored Denver and the surrounding mountain areas. Eventually the snow melted around the patio area near the stream and we enjoyed many early evenings there. Would highly recommend Brian's cabin for a weekend or an extended stay like ours. A perfect cabin experience! |

We've stayed at Brian's cabin three summers in a
row and are planning to visit again next year. We
give him a 15 rating out of 10. We enjoyed happy
hour on the new patio set up by the creek this year.
The solitude is so peaceful...the cabin is perfect for
the two of us...so much to do in the surrounding
area. We especially enjoyed the internet access this
year so we could tell our friends about the great
times we were having. Tim & Dianna - Fort Worth,

| Brian's cabin is incredible and the scenery unbelievable. By the end of the week we were totally relaxed and found it difficult to leave. The rustic cabin is nestled in a thick forest setting with a rushing stream nearby. Brian has supplied the cabin with all the amenities and lots of personal touches. The rental arrangements were easy to make and Brian answers questions very quickly. The Central City Parkway makes travel to Idaho Springs just a quick drive away with their Safeway, restaurants, mini-brewery, etc. We stayed there from 6/4/06 to 6/11/06. |

INCREDIBLE HONEYMOON !! We arrived at Brian's cabin on 4-23-06 and stayed 5 wonderful nights for our honeymoon. Much to our delight, it snowed (alot) the first two nights! Absolutely gorgeous! As if it wasn't already beautiful enough! The pellet stove just made the cabin so cozy and romantic. We watched the "fire" and TV while seeing the snow fall in the background from the huge windows. We took Brian's advice and took several
trips, we drove to Idaho Springs for
pizza at BeauJo's - Delicious! We then drove on to Breckenrigde, Keystone, Loveland Pass, WinterPark, and surrounding areas. All beautiful. We also spent a day driving to Boulder. Beautiful drive and a wonderful place to shop, not to mention a very interesting place to visit. We probably had the most fun on the ATV's that Brian recommended.
They delivered them right to the cabin and we rode them for two days! What a BLAST! We packed a lunch and ate at
the top of the mountain - great views! We also enjoyed Blackhawk in the evenings - my husband won 600.00 with the first dollar he put in! We used the money to buy a new digital
camera the next day which we took unbelievable pictures with the entire stay. We have decided to come back on our 5th anniversary - (if we can stay away that long!) We rate the cabin
a big 10 and recommend it to anyone
needing a quiet, romantic getaway.
Brian is super helpful and just a phone call away to assist with questions and recommendations. Thanks Brian, we will always treasure our honeymoon memories at your wonderful cabin. |

| Well, it's taken quite a while to write something about this wonderful property. But, face it, if I'm still jazzed about it months later, there must be something to it. Brian's super professional and thoughtful. And our short -- too short-- visit in July was such a fine respite. You traveling greater distances may appreciate how close it is to Denver. Dip into town for a show or meal, then get back to mountains in no time flat. I like to cook and was very happy with the kitchen set up. Love the loft bedroom. |

| What an Amazing Cabin!!! It was even better than we expected! The property was absolutely beautiful, very private and secluded, yet still close to all of the places we wanted to go. My son was in heaven the whole time! The Cabin is decorated beautifully, and extremely well stocked. You thought of everything Brian! We loved grilling outside, having campfires, listening to the stream, and relaxing at night to a fire and one of the great DVD movies provided. We had such a good time we plan on making this Cabin part of our vacation plans every year. Thanks for making the process so easy Brian, and for all of the memories! |

| We had a great time!! We stayed at the cabin 4/23 - 4/27/05. We received a much anticipated foot of snow the day after we arrived - which was absolutely beautiful!! We enjoyed a day trip to Estes Park & while there a drive through Rocky Mountain National Park - very gorgeous scenery & lots of wildlife to see. Also enjoyed going on 4-wheeler rides up the mountain trails!! We loved our first trip to Colorado & can't wait to come back and bring the kids with us next time. Thanks Brian - you have a great getaway!!! |

| This was, by far, the best winter vacation getaway spot... and all these guestbook comments are absolutely true! We were welcomed upon our arrival with a warm fire already going in the pellet stove - thanks Brian! The scenery is simply breathtaking and the accommodations are cozy, secluded, romantic and totally equipped with more than everything you need, including cooking spices, shampoo and a great collection of quality dvd's. We stayed for a week during mid-March 2005 and needed the four wheel drive since we got quite a bit of eagerly anticipated snow! The cabin is only a gorgeous 40 minute drive from Breckenridge - which is a great skiing/snowboarding mountain for all abilities. The Gilpen Casino - just a few minutes away in BlackHawk has a great new poker room on the second floor (with no loud 'casino noise') with pick-up games and no limit Texas hold-em poker tournaments scheduled several times a day. The locals are friendly and we were pleased to find that even amateurs like us can win tournaments! We also took a day trip to Estes Park and saw some great wildlife, endless amazing views and enjoyed some great micro-brews! The check-in/check-out procedure at the cabin is painless and Brian makes sure the cabin feels like your home away from home. You will love this cabin -and we will certainly be back to enjoy it in the summertime! |

Our little family of three stayed in the cabin Dec. 15th to Dec. 22nd 2004. This was our dream Christmas vacation and we couldn't have picked a more perfect place. We loved the setting in which the house was in - gorgeous! I had concerns that my 16 yr old daughter would become bored, but it never happened! Blackhawk is an excellent location to get to everything exciting in a short amount of time. We have plans to return to Blackhawk and will definately rent from Brian again! I highly recommend this great vacation spot for a lifetime of wonderful memories...by the way...the thermometer that you can view from inside the house will give you a clue as to just how cold it is outside! We never saw it get above 15 degrees! Thanks again Brian - your home is beautiful.

| The cabin was great! My wife, 3 kids(13,12,8), and I had a wonderful time at this cabin. We rented ATV's, drove the mountains, and visited some very cozy towns. I would recommend to take the peak to peak senic drive to Estes Park, a very beautiful little town about 45 minutes away. The drive there will amaze you. We were there from 12-9-04 to 12-12-04, and we had a lot of snow, it was quite the Christmas get away. |

| We had a wonderful stay and would recommend it highly to others. The cabin was extremely clean, cozy, and comfortable. The location was magnificent, especially for those of us who have to look at flatland and cornfields back at home (Iowa). It's right in the Arapahoe National Forest in a forested mountain region. Yet it's close to Boulder (we loved Pearl Street), Georgetown, and Denver. Great hiking in the area too. We'll be back! Thanks Brian (and to your brother too)!! |

The furniture was absolutely beautiful and what a comfortable couch. We also enjoyed the pellet stove so much that we are considering buying one. We rode 4-wheelers everyday and the trails are great. We recommend going over to Rollins Pass. It was much better riding during the week when there were no crowds. We definitely hope to go back. |

| Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cabin - August, 2004. Our boys (5 yrs old and 3 yrs old) were in heaven. They had a great time exploring and having a campfire every night. The cabin is close enough to everything so it made a great base camp. We took a day trip into Denver, went to the Rocky Mountain National park another day, and headed over to Winterpark (Winterpark Resort - a must for young kids) another day. All were pretty easy drives, less than an hour away - great for young kids. There is also plenty to do pretty close by - fishing and hiking just a couple of miles away. We can't say enough about the wonderful sounds of the mountain stream right outside the door and the great fires we had inside at night while watching a movie after a long day spent out having fun. We really enjoyed being out away from the crowds and not being right next to other people in an adjacent condo. Brian was great to deal with and we would definitely go back! |

The cabin and area were everything you said they were! We enjoyed every minute of our stay. The rushing stream outside the cabin was a peaceful wonderful sound to fall asleep too. The cabin was clean, neat and well stocked. The trails in the mountains for ATV riding were superb. It was great to not have to trailer the ATV.... just take off down the rode and off you go! The scenery was everything you said it was and more! The information book you have for your guests is terrific!
It was a pleasure doing email business with you. Responses were fast and informative. Thanks for a great vacation and we hope to be back to stay again soon! |

| Well we asked for snow and got it. This was an excellent getaway vacation week. The cabin was perfect, cozy & secluded. Brian even had the wood stove going for our arrival. The views from the area were breathtaking to say the least. The stream next to the cabin is not only beautiful, but extremely relaxing to listen to. Rocky Mountain National Park is a must see for all who stay here. The animals, landscapes and views are the best I've seen anywhere. Denver is close enough if you want a little civilization-type scenery, or you can stay at the cabin if you want privacy...the best of both worlds. Thanks again Brian for a much needed vacation, and we'll keep this address noted for next years stay! |

What a great get-away! Our experience with this rental was very positive. Being local to the Denver metro area, we frequently plan little spontaneous weekend trips (usually at the last minute), and this was a REAL FIND! Brian was so wonderful to work with, and was so attentive to our needs. We felt like we were his personal guests, as opposed to being "renters"! The cabin itself is just lovely - it is so open and airy - feels much larger than it actually is! The view from the wall of windows when you are either sitting in the living room, or laying in bed, is fabulous. Also, the location gives you the feeling that you're in the middle of nowhere, when actually, you're just a short drive from Denver.
We had a great weekend - did lots of hiking, cooking, eating, and just plain old relaxing by the fire! Loved our stay, and will definitely be back! Thanks Brian! |

| This was positive experience from the first email to Brian..He was very responsive to my questions and extremely easy to work with to arrange one of the nicest places I have ever stayed on vacation. The setting is beautiful, private, quiet and relaxing. The cabin is equiped with everything to make it easy to really enjoy the setting, especially the fireplace and pellet stove. I have previously rented another VBRO property and was very disappointed when I arrived to find it much different than it was described. That was not the case with this cabin. It was everything and more than the description and photos. The location was perfect with a great variety of things to do; it was great spending time in some of the less "touristy" places, like Nederland! VERY GOOD ITALIAN RESTAURANT...The parks and trails are every bit as beautiful as Rocky Mountain National Park, but far less congested. I couldn't have picked a better spot. I will definatly rent the cabin from Brian again next year..... |

We had a wonderful time at the cabin! The fireplace, Pine Creek just outside the door, and seclusion/quiet gave us exactly the vacation cabin environment we were looking for. We were so awed and entranced with the Rocky Mountains that we spent far less time relaxing and reading at the cabin than we had planned, but the cabin was perfect for this as well. It was very difficult to leave and we are both still adjusting to "real life". Our biggest disappointment was that the cabin was rented the next week and we couldn't extend our stay.
Prior to renting, I communicated several times with the owner regarding questions about the property. He was consistently fast to respond and completely answered my questions.
One note: though it probably would have turned out okay, the short, steep, rocky driveway may have been a (minor) challenge for a small car. I was glad to have rented a small SUV for the trip, though we encountered several roads in our explorations that presented a greater obstacle than the driveway (approach the Guanella Pass road south of Georgetown with caution!) Anyone encountering difficulty should still be able to park just off the bridge in the picture on this site and not have any real trouble. Don't let this small concern stop you from enjoying this wonderful cabin!
We can't wait to get back to the mountains, either at Brian's cabin or anything other means we find available! Thanks Brian, we did love it as much as you promised. |

| WE HAVE STAYED IN BRIANS CABIN ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION. WE HAD A WONDERFUL TIME. IT WAS VERY RELAXING, TO SIT BY ONE OF THE TWO FIREPLACES AND WATCH THE SNOW COME DOWN. WE LOOKED AT THE STARS AND VIEWED WILDLIFE. WE TOOK ADVANTAGE OF DOING THESE THINGS, LIVING IN DENVER, WHERE IT IS SO FAST PACED, WE NEVER HAD A CHANCE TO JUST SIT AND RELAX. IF YOU PLAN ON A VACATION TO DENVER, YOU MUST CHECK THIS CABIN OUT! WE PLAN ON GOING BACK SOON. HAVE A GREAT TIME!! |

| My girlfriend and I were looking for a relaxing week in the mountains. We got just exactly that. A secluded retreat that was very quiet and comfortable, but still close enough to all the sites and activities. We have recommended this cabin to our closest friends, and plan on a return trip. |

| The cabin was perfect for a relaxing week in the mountains. Very clean, nicely maintained, exactly as described in the ad. My family and I are looking forward to coming back next year! |
