Aspen Heaven
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. I would stay here again!

Management couldn’t be better. Best experience
We came up for a week hunting trip and ran across laughing coyote lodge. Decided to book and stay and what a great trip. I recommend this place to anyone wanting to get away from it all. Ms. Becky and her staff couldn’t be better.

Elk hunt
We rented this cabin because of its location to the San Juan National Forest. Tens of thousands of public land for all types of outdoor activity.

Comfortable and cozy
Cabin is comfortable and cozy. Becky and Tonya were fabulous with communications and checking on us! Ensured we had plenty of firewood as it was single digit temps a few nights. Would recommend to anyone looking to get away and enjoy the peace and quiet!

Must see views
This area is amazing! The cabin is up the mountain 30 miles and is secluded but yet comfortable with ppl within the area. The drive is slow going but worth it with the awesome views of beautiful mountains and scenic outlooks. The hummingbird feeder that hangs from the porch brings hummingbirds every morning, that are friendly and curious. Deer grised the backyard each morning also. And the cabin was well stock with kitchen stuff ,some everyday food items and firewood. The place was clean enough for a cabin . Host was friendly and helped with any issues that may have arisen. I will differently keep this on the list of places that we need to go back to.

Hidden Gem!
I booked this cabin looking for a camping experience without the headaches of camping. I like the outdoors, but I also like to be dry, clean, and comfortable. This cabin was perfect. Just as described. There is one other similar cabin to the south and one large cabin/home to the north, with the site host in a camper to the east. But we always felt like we had enough privacy with the trees and the way they set up the outdoor space. It rained off and on during our stay, which allowed us a small fire in the fire pit (after they lifted restrictions the day before!) and some wonderful family time snuggled up in the woodsy cabin playing Monopoly (furnished by cabin) and eating popcorn while the rain pattered on the new metal roof. The property had been fixed up quite a bit, with a new grill, newer linens, and new paint/stain/waterproofer on wood. Even the picnic table was nicely covered with new clean poly. Tanya, the camp host was cheerful and very welcoming and helped bring us more filtered water (instant hot water, what a luxury!), and any towels or toilet paper. We've been other places where the camp host was more put out that we were at "their campsite" but Tanya made us feel very comfortable and welcome. I would say this property was the perfect mix of rustic + comfort. 2 adults, 3 kids, 1 dog, plenty of room, plenty of beds, plenty of fun! We even entered our kids into their first fishing derby! We would definitely come back!
