Aspen View Lodge offers the perfect mountain getaway. Your Colorado retreat begins at this 8 bedroom, 3.5-bathroom vacation rental home in an adventure lover’s paradise - the Dolores River Valley. With 4,500 square feet of living space, this home base is perfect for group retreats and events, or just to escape with friends and family. Situated on nearly 8 acres bordering the San Juan National Forest, this is an ideal base camp to explore the Southwest. Located minutes from hiking, ATVing, 4x4 trails, biking, fishing, and hunting, this place has it all! Nearby Cortez and Telluride! Just across the road from the Dolores River! Ideal for family reunions and weddings. The arch and benches shown in the pictures is a beautiful area to hold a ceremony. We do have an additional fee to hold an event on our property. Our lodge can sleep 26. We are centrally located between Cortez and Telluride offering a wide variety of restaurants, shopping, museums, National Parks and skiing. Only 20 minutes from McPhee Reservoir, one of the largest bodies of water in Colorado!

Though easily accessible from Highway 145, this cabin is nestled in the woods and has a very private feel. Imagine exploring thousands of acres of national forest directly from the property, filled with pine, oak, spruce, aspen and abounding with wildlife. Watch the Dolores River wind through the valley. Fish on the river or hike up one of many nearby trails. Take a day trip to Telluride and enjoy the free Gondola in one of Colorado's most pristine alpine mountain towns (40 min away). Take another day trip to some of the best preserved ancient native american ruins in North America at Mesa Verde National Park (45 min away). Or just enjoy the mountain air and relax in a quintessential Colorado setting at the cabin.

Please be prepared, if you are coming in the winter, for snowy and icy road conditions. We have a very long, steep and narrow driveway. Four wheel drive and/or heavy duty chains are required if you are coming in the winter in order to make it up our driveway. If you have at least one four wheel drive vehicle in your group, you can use that as a shuttle and park the rest of your vehicles down below. Thanks for your understanding, we don't want you to get stuck!

- "Cabin was perfect! Clean, big enough to hold our family. It was well stocked. They pretty much had everything we needed in the kitchen. It was a wonderful place to stay and everyone had a great time. Highly recommend!" - "This cabin has so much space! It's fully stocked and beautifully decorated! The views are breathtaking, the air is fresh and just what we needed! We rented the wedding site as well for our small mountain wedding and it was absolutely perfect! Parking is limited but we shuttled guests up the driveway from the pull out at the bottom and everything went great! We hope to come back for vacations in the future!"

- "A great place for vacation and to get away. A bit far from my work." - "the host, property, and location were excellent !" - "Great stay and will return"

This cabin is the real-deal mountain experience—no frills, just fresh air, towering trees, private 45 acres, and a rich history that started with zero humans (yep, it was just the bears and birds for a while). Once a wild, untamed retreat, it’s now the ultimate getaway for families, reunions, weddings, and just about any excuse to celebrate. With a backstory worthy of a campfire tale, this place doesn’t just host memories—it helps make them legendary.

Welcome to Storm Peak Lodge –This lodge spreads its cozy charm across three spacious floors, each with its own personality—and plenty of room to snooze, sprawl, and sneak off for some peace and quiet. Up on the top floor, you’ll find the crown jewel: the main master suite, complete with a private bathroom, a patio perfect for your morning coffee (or evening wine), and views that might just convince you to move in permanently. Two more bedrooms share a classic Jack and Jill bathroom—perfect for kids, cousins, or anyone who enjoys the thrill of a shared sink. The main floor is the heart of the home, with the kitchen, main living area, and another set of two bedrooms connected by—you guessed it—another Jack and Jill bathroom. It’s ideal for families who love staying close... but not too close. And then there’s the basement: part hangout zone, part bunkhouse, part indoor adventure. It features a pool table for some friendly competition, a second master suite for VIP guests (or very tired parents), and a super-sized room that can sleep seven. Yes, seven. It’s practically its own sleepover kingdom.

The lodge features four comfy bedrooms plus a bunk room in the basement that’s perfect for kids or anyone young at heart. Need even more snooze space? The loft and basement have queen pull-out beds—ideal for extra guests or surprise tagalongs. Curl up in the cozy living room, stream your favorite series with WiFi (yes, even here!), or do a little laundry while pretending you're roughing it.

Sitting on a jaw-dropping 45-acre lot that cozies up to the San Juan National Forest in Wildcat Canyon, this place is adventure-ready year-round. It doubles as the perfect spot to slow down, unwind and breathe in that fresh mountain air that smells faintly of pine and freedom. In summer and fall, it moonlights as a working ranch with mules and horses hanging out just behind the lodge, along with wranglers and guides living their best ranch life. The property is a scenic playground with rolling hills, shady woods, creek and river frontage, and meandering trails that practically beg for boots and bikes.

Looking for something to do? From hunting to hiking, skiing to sledding, fishing to family reunions, this place does it all. Hosting a wedding or big event? You're in luck—we can sleep 30+ in the main lodge alone, and over 50 guests when both lodges are rented. Just drop us a line to chat about our event accommodations and fees—we promise we’re nice.

And let’s not forget: Storm Peak Lodge is proudly off-grid and powered by solar. That means guilt-free hot showers and eco-conscious vibes all around. Being off-grid and tucked away in a secluded corner of the canyon, our lodge offers guests a front-row seat to nature in all her unfiltered glory. You’ll trade city lights for starlit skies, and traffic noise for birdsong, rustling leaves, and the occasional curious critter.

This is the real deal—an unplugged, boots-on-the-ground experience for folks who aren’t afraid of a little dirt, a few hoofprints, or maybe sharing their morning coffee with a mule in the distance. It’s not luxury in the traditional sense—it’s luxury for the soul.

If you’re the kind of person who greets mud with a grin and sees pine needles as confetti from the forest, then welcome. Mother Nature’s been expecting you.

When you're ready to explore, Telluride and Mountain Village are just 30 miles north—perfect for skiing, golfing, shopping, or catching a ride on the free gondola (yes, it’s really free!). Head 20 miles south to Dolores for lake days at McPhee Reservoir, or venture a bit further to Cortez for Mesa Verde, the Four Corners Monument, and some of the best biking this side of the Rockies. Want to make a day of it? Take a scenic drive to Durango (70 miles) for ziplining, museums, and the iconic Narrow Gauge Railroad.

Bottom line: Whether you're here to relax, celebrate, have a legendary game of hide-and-seek in the woods, or go full-on mountain explorer, Storm Peak Lodge is ready to welcome you with open arms, fresh air, and maybe a friendly mule or two.

Any bookings from October - March must have a 4x4 or off road vehicle to access the property. We love love and hosting weddings as well as other private events! Please inquire for additional fees and costs that come with those types of bookings.

**** New building has been added to the front of the property for Outfitter Lease in the fall, it is still under construction and pictures will be updated upon completion. Please inquire for reference images ****

- "If you're looking for a mountain stay that's away from the city and off the grid with no cell service, this is the spot for you! The property is absolutely gorgeous and isolated. Even with it being right next to a highway, we weren't bothered by any passing vehicles. The property also borders national park land, so you can basically go wherever you want! Mark made the check-in process painless and easy. He took the time to show us where everything was and also how to use the backup generator just in case of emergency since the house is run completely on solar energy. The driveway and parking area were all cleared out and we had zero issues with access to the property even with several feet of snow on the ground. Mark made sure there was plenty of firewood for the whole weekend and he even called a locksmith for me when I ended up locking my keys in my truck. 1000/10 would recommend this property and would absolutely stay here again. We are already talking about coming back sometime during the summer so we can explore more of the property when there's not a lot of snow on the ground."

- "Second time here within 2 months thanks to the beauty I feel 100%." - "We stayed here for a weekend since it was down the road (15 mins) from my cousins wedding. We had a wonderful time. We could hear the elk bugling at night and in the am a little bit. The view of Lone Cone is stunning and my favorite tree is the Aspen so I was literally in heaven here. We had everything we needed and a few little extras were also provided by the host, what a treat! A few teenage kitties running around made my dog go crazy but they are very friendly.

- "This was a great location for us to visit Telluride and Mesa Verde." - "Beautiful area! On the river in mountains yet close enough to Dolores, Cortez, Durango and Telluride. The Dolores Market is a small grocery store in town but has everything you will need. Coming from South Texas we love good Mexican food and it is hard to find when traveling but MITequila in Dolores was very good. Taking the drive to visit and shop Telluride, Ouray then Silverton was amazing. The house has all amenities plus more than we expected. Very well equipped. Clean and comfortable beds. Plenty of linens. We did travel with our beagles and there is a dog sitter we found in Dolores on Rover.com named Ashley for the time we couldn’t have them come to our activities. She was great!!

- "My parents, husband and I all enjoyed our stay in this cute cabin. We usually stay about 20 min up the mountain, but we needed an alternative as our usual space was not available. My dad mentioned several times how he liked this property more than where we have stayed for the last 30+ years! We loved the porch, having two bedrooms and bathrooms and being able to walk just a little bit to the river. Two drawbacks - the road noise and the mosquitos! We definitely didn’t let that hinder our stay, though."
