High Mountain Getaway

The Rarus is located 3/4 of a mile east of the continental divide at 10,800ft in the San Isabel National Forest on private property. The property is fully off grid, with no cell phone service. Internet is available for emergency use only. We are remotely located and require a high clearance 4WD vehicle to get down our steep and rocky driveway.

Ride your ATV, UTV, or dirt bike right from the cabin. If you would like to get away from it all, this is the place for your ultimate mountain vacation.

Please Note:

*Due to Chaffee County vacation rental guidelines there is a caretaker that comes to check on the solar system. The caretaker does not stay in the cabin or need access to the cabin to run the system but they will be on the property.

*The pictured hot tub is not included in the rental.

We stayed here for 5 nights, beautiful!!! The house was clean and had everything we needed. It is tricky getting up and down the drive way but we knew that going in. Can’t wait to go back and stay here again.

Beautiful cabin- Perfect for off roading, not for privacy.
This property unfortunately was falsely advertised. A beautiful cabin and yes remote, but there are 4 camp sites surrounding the cabin, so not nearly as secluded and private as we expected. If no one is staying in those campsites, you may have a better chance of being alone but no blinds in some rooms in the cabin so it felt awkward. Hot tub was not working and was shown in pictures on the listing. Needed to boldly state this was out of order. We chose this spot thinking we would be alone and unfortunately that didn’t end up being the case. Better fit cabin for families or large groups who could rent as a whole. Great for ATV’s and good hiking.

Off grid and high clearance 4x4
This cabin suited us pretty well. The log cabin with rock fireplace had the exact look we wanted. It was out of town and in the mountains and in the middle of nature like we wanted as well. We were only bothered a little by the off grid part…generator had to be used a few times to supply enough power and water for our group of 6 adults. The evenings were long with only having the provided dvds to watch and no internet service. That would be a huge plus if internet and TV would have been better, but we were warned of that when we booked. A hot tub was onsite, but we weren’t able to use it, bummer as well. Cabin was conveniently located near trails for us to ride our side by sides. We never moved our vehicle the whole week, we were able to find enough trails for the whole week, but they were very rough and not what we expected. We won’t go back to this area again, because of all of the big rocks on the trails. But, we did see a ton of wildlife which was fantastic! We saw several moose, elk, mule deer and even a few mountain goats! Very cool! Our on-site host was friendly and accommodating.

Beautiful views and comfy beds
After 2 nights we wished we could have stayed longer. The driveway is no joke as far as needing 4x4 high clearance. Beautiful cabin and we are grateful to have stayed there.

We enjoyed our stay. The driveway was just as she told us and we were glad we had a 4 wheel drive. It rained every day until the last day; wish the sun would have shone a little more.

Great place to reset and relax
I booked the cabin for a family relaxation and reset vacation. We brought UTVs to ride trails. We were able bring our 4x4 pickup and car trailer down to the property without an issue. The cabin was perfect! We had plenty of room for two adults, a teenager and two kids. We brought our food ahead of time, per Erica’s advice and used the grill a lot. The kids explored and loved the hammock! In the evenings we watched the chipmunks and deer, and played board games. Manette was wonderful, she helped with any questions we had and had great stories about the area and history of the cabin! Would love to visit again!
