Ski in PARADISE in the Winter! Perfect Family Getaway Cabin in the Summer!

Location,Luxury,and Location. This cabin has just finished a complete 250k remodel and under new ownership. Owner David Musselman is sparing no expense to create an experience that will certainly make this one of the most popular ski in ski out cabins in the west.

The theme of this cabin is an old miners shack combined with a ski bum element. There is a combination of metals and wood that make this unique. The bathrooms are designed to look like an old mine shaft and the living areas will make you feel that you are a teenager again with all of the ski and snowboard deco.

Large comfortable leather couches will be in both TV family rooms and of course there will be premium surround sound theater in both family rooms and the master bedroom.

The kitchen cabinets have been custom designed by the owners as are all of the light fixtures in the cabin.

For those of you that want a ski in experience, you will be able to ski directly to the front door off the great western ski run. This is a black diamond run. You can also take advantage of the free shuttle which picks up directly in front of the cabin about every 10 to 15 minutes and will take you directly to the main resort. At the end of the day you can climb back onto the free shuttle, and it will drop you off in front of the cabin. This is great for parents that want to let their kids just go have freedom and ski without the hassle of getting them to the lift.
If you want to spoil yourself with one of the most charming cabins on the hill to make your ski trip perfect then you will not be let down.

Winter or Summer...Its the perfect cabin!

A WORD TO OUR GUESTS: PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING
The next few paragraphs are for the 5% of the guests we have that do not understand the difference between a VRBO property and staying at a Marriot. If you have ever asked for refunds from VRBO owners for any reason please read below.

THIS cabin gets a considerable amount of use. Especially during the ski season. It is a very popular cabin for larger groups and families.

The winter months particularly with this kind of heavy usage, cause a considerable amount of wear and tear.

The reason this cabin is so popular is because of its charm and decorations, and attention to detail.

THIS IS NOT A COOKIE CUTTER, VACATION RENTAL PROPERTY.

This is our family cabin, which includes some of our family treasures and family artwork for you to enjoy. That’s what makes it so special.

We love to share the amazing skiing opportunities, combined with the rustic luxury that this cabin provides. It will be unlike any other cabin that you stay at.

Because of its popularity and significant usage during the ski season do not expect to be checking into a brand new “white glove Marriott clean”property. We do our best with professional cleaners to have it ready for you when your party arrives but there might be some stains on the carpet, there might be some dust on a ceiling fan blade, there might be some chips in the coffee mugs or the batteries might be dead in one of the remote controls for the TV. In other words, we want to make sure that there are realistic expectations about reserving this beautiful Cabin.

We will always do our best, and take the feedback from each guest during their stay serious, and attempt to keep up with keeping everything up to a very high standard but if you are expecting a level of newness or cleanliness that you would see in a five-star hotel, then you might be happier with staying in a five star hotel.

SOME POSSIBLE THINGS TO PLAN ON:
1. You are in the mountains with lots of wildlife. You might get a visit from a mouse in the house or various bugs. We are vigilant about pest control but control is a relative word.
2. Sometimes lightbulbs burn out. We normally keep some extras.
3. The cabin has some great amenities such as the SAUNA and Hot tub with are functional 95% of the time with professional maintenance. But parts unexpectedly go bad or in the case of the 2023 winter the hot tub deck was crushed by snow.

We will try to inform you if certain things that are shown as part of the package are not working in advance of your stay. Any of the above items do NOT constitute a reason for a refund and on a case by case basis we will work with the guests to find a way to make it right if an item is not available such as the hot tub.

If you are wanting to have an unforgettable amazing experience and can see the value in trading amazing fit and finish and charm and detail for a frying pan that has some scratches in it then this is your place!

Should you choose to select our cabin for your vacation or event, we look forward to meeting you and helping you have the most amazing time ever!

See you on the hill!

The Musselman’s

Awesome Time in Brighton. Great accommodation.
We stayed for 5 nights. The main purpose of our trip was skiing. We had two families of 4, 2 adults and 2 teenagers in each family. House size was perfect. Two older boys slept up in the loft, two adults and my daughter on the middle floor with the two bedrooms and two adults downstairs and one teenager on the downstairs couch which he said was comfy. Loved the hot tub and sauna but the fireplace was our favorite. So many cool decorations in this place. We loved the rustic charm. Very convenient to slopes. Short walk to the shuttle, longer walk to the lift, but doable. We always took the shuttle. David, the Owner, was very responsive. The mountain got 54" of snow while we were there so we had some small logistical challenges getting there as did the cleaning staff but all of that was fine. The place was very clean and perfect for our stay. We got all our groceries for the week in Walmart before heading up the mountain and that worked out great. We would stay here in again in a heartbeat. My one wish was that the hottub was out on the main deck so you could view the mountain as you hung out, but it was fine as is. We were in the hot tub everyday. Thanks for an awesome trip David.

Amazing stay at unique and charming property. 6 minute walk to great western lift! We loved all of the little touches that made this home memorable - from the hot tub on the covered deck to beautiful metalwork throughout, to very attentive support from the homeowners team. Highly recommend and can’t wait to return.

Very unique property the details and decor were awesome.
We had a wonderful weekend at this awesome cabin located right next to my favorite ski resort in the world, Brighton. We have four kids ages 2-11 and they all had a great time. All my kids loved it. My daughters commented on how much they loved the cabin decor. I did too. It has so many cute and unique details from wood carvings to repelling figures. The beds were comfy, the couch inviting, the shower was a waterfall with sprayers and a shower head on the sides. We enjoyed the hot tub right after sledding and it was fun to warm up and turn on the LED lights and watch the snow fall. We decorated gingerbread houses, drank hot cocoa, roasted mallows on the fire, went sledding, hot tubbing, and played board games as a family in our winter PJ’s. The WiFi is great I worked for a few hours there and had no trouble with the internet even uploading movies to my site worked fine. Communication was great from David. He sent videos on how to use the fire and some other things that required visual instruction which was great. We stayed when the resorts weren’t open yet and just got lucky with an early snowpack. However, I grew up amateur-competitively snowboarding and have snowboarded at many resorts and have rode at most resorts in Utah and it is hard to beat Brighton and Solitude in terms of tree riding, powder, and variety in terrain. Brighton is my favorite resort and this cute cabin is just minutes away. I Highly recommend!

Loved this creatively built, cozy cabin!
The host was very nice and communicative, and the cabin had plenty of room yet a lovely, cozy vibe with a wood-burning fireplace and big comfy sofa. Plenty of room for a group to eat around the large round table in the dining area. The sauna was sooo pleasant. Tons of interesting handmade items and features all over the home. We enjoyed it immensely!

Comfy Mountain Cabin
We had a lovely time staying at the cabin. There were 10 of us (+ one toddler), all staying in the upper part of the cabin and while we did all fit and have a place to sleep, it was a bit tight, especially with only one bathroom. There is a lot more STUFF in the cabin (mainly decorations) than what was in the pictures and also I would not say this is a kid-friendly property. A lot of sharp corners for a kid to cut their head on (the dining table not pictured in the listing and the various metal saw blades). Overall though, it was very easy to work with the owner David and the location can't be beat if you want to be by one of the resorts. Please note the hot tub is currently out of commission so we didn't have access to it.

Our Favorite Cabin Yet
From the decor, to the location, to the size - this was by far one of the best cabins we’ve stayed at on a snowboarding trip! All the finishing touches such as the Sonos surround system, mood lighting throughout the cabin, old-timely mountain gear, and iron and wood work used as decoration - made for new experiences everyday and night while staying on the property. On top of that, the location is perfect for riding at Brighton or Solitude! 10/10 would and will stay again!

Excellent Location in a Cozy Setting
The proximity to Brighton just cannot be beat. We were there on a weekend with a ton of snow, where there were zero parking spots available on-resort. It was amazing to be a super short 5 minute walk away. The house itself was lovely and cozy, with ample common room for us all to convene, including in front of a lovely wood-burning stove. We also managed to ski off straight to the property, though probably something only experts should attempt, as it does require going out of bounds. Overall, this was exactly what we were looking for and we found our host to be super responsive and communicative!

Home away from home in the tundra
The home was all that we could have asked for in our post-conference co-worker ski get-away. The house is filled with unique and distinguished character, from the steal work to the layout. David, the owner was very hands on and supportive during our stay, we loved every minute spent in the house. While it isn't exactly "ski out" it is just a short walk from the shuttle that takes you to Brighton resort. We would certainly stay here again.
