Our family had a wonderful stay at the Dreamcatcher. The kids all hiked to St. Mary’s Glacier and such a good time. We were just sorry we were not there longer. The view was outstanding, and even the rain did not hinder the beauty. We would stay there again.

We had a wonderful stay! The property is spacious, clean, and offers beautiful views. The trail access to St. Mary’s Glacier is a huge bonus, and the backyard access to the lake made it even better. Communication with Mary was excellent—quick, helpful, and friendly. Highly recommend!

Gorgeous cabin/incredible location

Wow! This large rustic cabin is truly one of a kind. The setting and location are out of this world. The cabin was private, cozy and very comfortable for our party of 4 adults. We loved bbq-ing all of our meals on the deck. This place is magical.

Loved the cabin in all ways. The only thing is that the road off the highway to the property is about 25 min and can take a while if there’s snow/ice on the road.

We loved this cabin on the lake! The enormous deck offered the most beautiful views of the lake and mountains. The house was very clean and cozy. Huge bonus was being within a short walk to the trail for St Mary’s Glacier. Definitely recommend this home!

Fabulous view and location. Great for my girls group. Loved being able to hike the St. Mary's Glacier trail from the house. Beds were comfortable and towels were good quality and appeared to be new. Dishwasher worked well as did washer and dryer. Pots, pans, and silverware need to be replaced. The fridge does not have an icemaker and there were no ice cube trays when we were there. Any easy fix for the owner.

Amazing mountain home

This property is amazing. We went up during a snow storm and it was absolutely beautiful. The view off the patio and across the lake is perfect. Karen was so fast to respond when we had questions. I would love to stay in this property again during the summer! The roads were also plowed every morning which made getting out much easier than we expected! I highly recommend this place.

Wonderful Mountain Vacation

We had an amazing stay at Dreamcatcher! This was our family’s first trip out to Colorado and this property was perfect. Our group was 3 adults and 2 teenagers. The property had everything we needed, beds were very comfortable and the house is clean .The views from the house are breathtaking, we even got to see a mama moose and her calf at the lake! We took daily walks up to the glacier and did the white water rafting in town, which was a lot of fun. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you for sharing this amazing property!

Christmas Get-Away

We truly enjoyed staying in the house! It had everything we needed with plenty of space for everyone to spread out! We had the best time and it was very relaxing. If I were going to have anything negative, more light would be good and plenty of matches/lighters to light the fire place. Those are very miniscule compared to the great things the home had to offer. Overall, we loved it and would definitely stay again.

Beautiful and Quiet

The home offered plenty of room for our family of 7. The hike to St. Mary's Glacier was a workout but the payoff was amazing! The deck was enormous and the view of the lake was peaceful and gorgeous. It was a long drive up and down the mountain but we knew that and planned activities accordingly. We could not find a broom or mop for the floors, and there was no dish rag for wiping down counters and the table when we finished cooking and eating. Paper towels don't do a sufficient job. I felt the only downfall was communication with the host. Response time to emails was lacking (usually 24 hours ... too long) and not all questions were answered. Overall, we enjoyed the property.

Beautiful and clean cabin

Our stay was great! The host went above before and throughout our stay to ensure our complete satisfaction. Traveling with young children, and a snow storm brings it challenges and Karen went above and beyond to ensure the entire stay went without flaw. The cabin was extremely clean, and equipped with all essentials to enjoy the snow.
