What a wonderful week at your property. What surprised and delighted me most was the birding - much of it without the need to leave the porch! Hiking, fishing, birding, playing games on the porch and reading... all without the incoming chaos daily life brings. Exactly the relaxing experience we were looking for (and needing)! Thank you!

| Had a GREAT time - 7 adults, 2 children and a 6 month old baby - Roomy enough with the bunkhouse that we survived a week and loved it!Good fishing, hiking, wildlife viewing, cool weather and a comfortable facility for an extended family. Four of us fished the S. Platt in 11-mile Canyon as well - and caught our limit both days. Enjoyed fishing the community pond with the grandkids Enjoyed the Old Kathleen Gold Mine in Cripple Creek and horse back riding north of Florrisant. Thanks Pat ! |

This was the perfect place for us to enjoy family time.The surroundings take your breath away and the Cabin is wonderful. We fished, hiked and just enjoyed the outdoors as much as possible.
It is the perfect place for those who what to get away, yet still have lots to do and the beauty is remarkable.I think the boys will always remember saving the fawn from the hole it fell into and returning it to it's mother. They walked off together and we saw them again the next day. Thank you for sharing your home with us. |

| The Cohen Homestead over delivered. If you are looking for a rustic Colorado get-away - this is your place. We originally planned on taking a number of day trips, but ended up only leaving the cabin once. Didn't feel the need to leave the ranch. Thank you Pat for opening your home to us. See you next year. |

| Your place was beautiful. We went with group of people and my family stayed in the "Bunkhouse". My kids loved sleeping in there. We all slept in the loft. The wildlife was amazing. The animals were not afraid of us and came right up to the cabin. Your cabin was remote enough to enjoy peace and quiet but close enough for us to make it to Pike's Peak, The Royal Gorge, The Garden of the Gods, and Brown's Canyon, just to name a few. I plan to return again next year! |

| The cabin was so much nicer than the pictures even! We enjoyed our stay very much, saw lots of wildlife, and had fun trying to catch fish. It is truly a relaxing experience and the cabin is stocked with everything. Thanks for the fun three days! |

Absolutely relaxing! Abundant wildlife and
beautiful scenery made for a most enjoyable week.
Far enough away from everything yet close enough
to make easy day trips to the best of southern
Colorado. Everyone enjoyed the fully equipped
cabin and bunkhouse and the grandkids enjoyed
the openness and freedom to roam in a terrific
outdoor environment! Pat, thanks once again for
sharing your home and ranch with us! |

SPOILED!! That is what John said about our vacation time at “The Land”. Everything was perfect, just like the last two times we vacationed here. Our family enjoys our time spent here so much that we all hate to leave & start to count the days until we return next year. Our children love the fishing that is available, we explored ATV trails & even took in a mountain nap on one of them just like last year. The neighbors are very friendly & helpful if need be. Pat & the boys visited us again this year & we talked sports like always! Thank you Pat for always making us feel welcome & sharing your “Land” with us. We LOVE our time spent here, see ya next year!!

My husband and I spent our honeymoon in July, 2008 at this beautiful mountain retreat. It was the perfect place to get away for some peaceful time alone, away from our hectic daily lives. We made several day trips, joined in some of the local town's activities, and returned every evening to this wonderful cabin. Several days were spent just enjoying the quiet seclusion of this lovely property, going for walks or sitting out on the front porch enjoying the view and the hummingbirds.
Thank you, Pat, for sharing your little corner of Colorado with us. It made our first week as husband and wife perfect and filled with wonderful memories. |

| This cabin is so beautiful. It's quiet and feels so much like home. We had a group of 12 with 8 children from 15 years to 3 years-and everyone absolutely loved it. The accomodations are wonderful- the kids loved the bunk house and anything you might need is provided in the cabin, from fishing poles, bait, tackle, it's was home away from home and a week wasn't long enough. We hiked, fished, the kids climbed and ran all over the place. This cabin is secluded- and the views are incredible-We made day trips into Canyon City, Victor, Cripple Creek, Flourisant, Colorado Springs all within 30 min. to 1 hr away-We can't wait to go back. We also went horseback riding on the McNamera Ranch, were they accomodated us all-including horse and carriage for grandma and the little ones. This was the best vacation ever-and we can't wait to go back. |

| We had a wonderful 2 weeks at "The Land". We wanted peace and quiet and that is exactly what we got. The fishing was great! We will book again next year. Thanks, Pat, for allowing people like us to enjoy your "little bit of Heaven". The Clayton's |

Pat,
Thank you for sharing your cabin with us. We had a wonderful time. We brought our 12 and 14-year old grandsons with us who had never been to Colorado, the mountains, been trout fishing, whitewater rafting, and had very limited time on a horse. We did all of this and had a great time.
McNamara's Stables had excellent horses. Both Sheila and Virginia, our trail guide were most helpful. We saw elk on the ride, went through the national forest and onto the adjoining ranch for great views.
The afternoon we arrived we went fishing in the pond that is a short distance walk behind the bunk house. The first fish I caught was one of the stockers. It was a nice fish, but shortly after that I caught a 17 inch rainbow. We had trout for dinner that evening. My oldest grandson and Sheila each later also caught large rainbows out of that pond. We released the smaller ones we caught.
Thanks also for the gift you had for our arrival.

We made it back!! We couldn’t wait to return to this peaceful cabin with beautiful scenery. The wildlife were abundant, views were spectacular, quietness was all around, we couldn’t have asked for more! Just hanging around the cabin 24/7 was enough for us, you couldn’t ask for more beauty, peace & quiet. Pat & boys visited us a couple of times, adding a face to the voice that is always so nice when we visit on the phone. Everything was just as when we had left last year. Kids would have fished 24/7 if we would have let them. We wandered up to Eleven Mile Canyon for a couple of days of fishing too, what AWESOME views of mountains & rocks you should not miss experiencing. We four-wheeled down Wagon Tongue Gulch Rd, a picnic for lunch, our 2 year old napped on the ride, what beautiful, BEAUTIFUL scenery!! We returned to the ‘cabin’ for supper on the porch, hiking South into the Pine trees for a look around, before relaxing in the swing to enjoy the beautiful sunset or lightning to the South before a short rain shower went through. How many days till vacation?? See ya next year!

| Our family vacation could not have been more perfect! The Cohens are so generous to share this spectacular place! We ate every meal outdoors on the picnic table, played games indoors and out, hiked, rockclimbed, skulked all over the property, fished (caught 8 and released 4), viewed a gazillion stars at night, enjoyed afternoon showers, bonded with all the wildlife ---- all in such pristine beauty! The cabin and bunkhouse were extremely comfortable --- every amenity at our disposal -- and kids and adults loved Pacman and Frogger! Thanks so much!! The Hockers Dallas, Texas |

Pat,
We really enjoyed our stay at your cabin. It was so
peaceful and quiet. I know my wife enjoyed the time
reading her Harry Potter book. The kids loved the
Pacman game and playing croquet. I enjoyed the
fishing, even though I didn't catch any. All in all,
we all enjoyed the time away from our hectic schedule.
We took many pictures and have already shared them
with family. I'm hoping to convince them to come to
Colorado for the next reunion.
Take Care,

We were fortunate enough to stay at
this cabin for the last week of June,2007, and couldn't have asked for more. Serenity, wildlife and comfort --
the only way to truly describe the experieince is complete, indulgent isolation. We were relaxed and revived
when we left, and plan to return next year. |

This cabin was “home away from home” to us for a whole week in August of 2006. Our family had a fantastic time! Everything was just as Pat said it would be and more! The cabin, mountains, fishing, wildlife, scenery, and more were breathtaking. It has to be as close to heaven on Earth as you can get. Our children lived by the pond trying to catch every fish in it. We couldn’t have asked for a better time away from home, then to step into Pat’s “home away from home”. The accommodations were just like you were at home, you couldn’t have asked more. We loved it here! We plan to return next summer for another getaway to this beautiful cabin!

We stayed at this wonderful cabin for a whole week during July of 2005. So quiet, peaceful and rejuvenating!!! If you are looking for somewhere to disappear to - this is the place!
You will not be disappointed staying here. We never caught a fish but sure enjoyed trying!!! The Lawson Family |
