Large Vega Lake Colorado REAL LOG CABIN

Open year round, this spectacular 5300+ sq ft log cabin/lodge is a 1-hr drive from Grand Junction Airport. Nestled in an aspen grove overlooking Vega Lake, the cabin sleeps 17 people (kids included) and parks up to 8 vehicles. Wildlife abounds and the lake is full of trout (some up to 5 lbs). Outdoor equipment is offered free of charge (see list below) to enhance your stay. An expansive covered deck has a propane grill for BBQs and there is an outdoor fire pit for fireside evenings.

Located in Western Colorado’s Vega Lake State Park, you can relax in the expansive beauty and comfort that only a Real Log Cabin/Lodge can offer.

The cabin/lodge is the perfect year round get-away for family and friend gatherings. The cabin offers 6 bedrooms (including the open loft), 2.5 baths, a laundry room, a wood burning fireplace and a full kitchen that seats up to 17 people comfortably. There is a large outdoor fire pit as well.

Firm limit of 17 people (children over 1-yr-old included). If your group is close (within 5 people above our limit), feel free to contact us with your group details/ages and we may be willing to negotiate. Firm NO PET policy. We love pets AND do not allow them inside or on the property—even outside. No smoking inside (including cannabis), but smoking outside (including cannabis) is allowed.

COLORADO ROCKY MOUNTAIN HIGH: FISHING, BOATING, HIKING, 4-WHEELING, SNOWMOBILING, BIKING, CROSS COUNTRY SKIING, HUNTING & GET-TOGETHERS

The Grand Mesa is located in western Colorado, USA. It is the largest flat-topped mountain in the world (over two hundred lakes) and Vega Lake is the largest lake in the area.

The cabin sits at 8200’ elevation and features beautiful craftsmanship throughout. The large full kitchen features a breakfast bar with seating for 10 that opens to a stunning living room with 35'cathedral ceilings. The dining room seats another 7. From this main living area you can access the spacious 500 sq ft covered deck (with gas barbecue)—the perfect place to kick back and enjoy the serene views. You also have access to unlimited recreation in the immediate area with fishing, hiking, biking, 4 wheeling, cross country skiing, birding watching, boating, snowmobiling depending on the season.

The lower level includes a 500 SF family/theater room, with handcrafted pine paneled walls, two large couches, one large smart TV, 500+ DVDs, a foosball table, and TV for gaming systems (BRING YOUR OWN GAMING SYSTEMS).

For small children there are plenty of toys.

Wildlife abounds around the home: deer, elk, moose, eagles, chipmunks, fox, marmots, wild turkeys and numerous species of birds can be seen depending on the season.

Sip hot chocolate by the crackling fireplace, gaze at the amazing views of Vega Lake and the mountains, or just unwind in the peace of the aspen and pine trees that surround the cabin.

FOR GET-TOGETHERS:

The cabin is the perfect place for get-togethers.

No loud outdoor music after 9 pm to preserve the peace in the area.

This cabin is NOT to be used as an event center—unless the event has a TOTAL of up to, but no more than, 17 people using the property.

No pets inside or outside on the property.

No Weddings or Receptions (unless under 17 people total). However, Vega Lodge (1.5 miles away) or the Pavilion at Aspen Park Campground (¼ mile away) are great spaces for such venues, and the cabin is the perfect place for the wedding party to stay together (up to 17 people total).

No additional camping on the property, or even at the nearby campgrounds, to increase guest numbers. In other words, do not use camping to extend your group numbers above our 17-person limit that will be on-site, even part time, and using the amenities of the cabin.***The cabin caretakers (who live in another cabin) are authorized to uphold the rules for the property.

Food/drink: Vega Lodge (1.5 miles away) offers dining and drink (seasonal) and Collbran (25 minute drive) offers a deli and a pizza parlor.

FOR SNOWMOBILING TO THE TOP OF THE MESA:
Start right at the cabin. The Vega Snowmobile Trail #545 begins at the Vega State Park Trailhead just after crossing the dam and ends at an intersection with the Sunlight to Powderhorn Trail (SP). On the Sunlight to Powderhorn Trail Map the Vega Trail is #37 (66 6/10 Road). There is a large parking lot at this Trailhead for trailers and you can drive snowmobiles to and from the cabin from there.

The Trailhead #37-A is just down from the cabin at the cross roads of Parkview Road and 64 6/10 Road. This trail 37-A intersects #37. While our guest you can park trailers on Parkview road tight to the right so that the plow can drive by. Then drive the snowmobile or your car/truck to and from the cabin.

The trail #37 continues on Forest Service Road 262 in the Park Creek drainage through aspen into open meadows in Big Park. About half way through the meadow, the trail will intersect the SP Trail near Monument Creek. NOTE: The large heated garage is the perfect place to park and work on your snowmobiles.

Good time!
Our stay was very nice! We are a group of childhood friends ranging in age from 68 to 70. It rained but it didn’t matter because we just wanted to visit. Very spacious. We played games put puzzles together, ate and visited. Perfect! I will say that one of the arm chairs in the dining room needs some glue and the upstairs toilet needs some help

We loved the front porch the best. We had four littles under two and they were able to safely play, crawl and navigate this large area! Also, our large family ate all our meals on the porch, including all four high chairs. Many thanks!

An absolute must!!
First of all they really deserved a 10 star rating! The owners are two of the nicest, caring and accommodating people I have met when booking a VRBO! We have a blended family, and a very large one at that! The ages were 10 months old to 76 years old. I booked it for a 4 night, five day stay. My only complaint, was that I didn't have it booked for a much longer stay. From the absolute stunningly beautiful cabin, with ALL the amenities that one could hope for, to the beautiful views, wildlife and abundance of activities, you'll never want to leave!! Thank you Todd and Rhonda for allowing our family to enjoy your cabin as our own. It allowed for some unforgettable memories!!!

Our family (13 people ranging from ages 4 to 73) had a great time here. The house is beautiful with a massive kitchen, great front porch and a basement theater room. We were able to enjoy all the home had to offer and spend some quality time on the lake. Peaceful and quiet area in a beautiful and secluded part of Colorado.

True Log Cabin in Western Colorado Mountains
We had a family vacation with our Adult Children and 9 year Granddaughter. It felt like we were staying in a resort all to ourselves. We had a group of 10 and had plenty of room to spread out. Some of us skied at Powderhorn while the rest of us relaxed by the fire in the grand living area. The next day we all rented snow mobiles on the top of the Grand Mesa and had an awesome time. We are already planning our next trip and will definitely book this cabin again.

Cabin on Vega Lake
Big and roomy for our family and guests....beds and furniture were all very good, kitchen was good. All added up to a great place for our needs. Our daughters wedding and getting together to meet grooms family. Wedding was 11-11-2022 at 8200 ft altitude.....so was pretty cold and a little windy but the place had floor radiant heat and all stayed comfortable (we did use fireplace a few times and it was excellent to give just a little more heat) It is a place I would recommend to all but people with walking disabilities. The stairs could be a problem for some. Beautiful place, with many extras. Dennis Plummer
