About this place

This stylish, waterfront cabin is perfect for a romantic getaway or lone traveler, at Water & Stone Retreat in Idaho Springs Colorado. Stunning mountain views, lush forestry & a bustling creek just off the back patio bring in the peace and tranquility only found in nature. Cozy and inviting with heated bathroom floors, and a gas fireplace. Just 5 minutes from the the historic town of Idaho Springs. 20 mins to ski slopes! 35 mins to downtown Denver! No pets allowed.

***PLEASE NOTE*** As detailed under our House Rules, if you want an early check-in time or late checkout time that is different than what is advertised in our listing, there will be an additional fee. We are located in a tiny mountain town. It is very challenging to find quality/reliable cleaning help. This is not a big city, or an expensive resort town. Our cleaning schedule is very tight and strict every single day of the week. We cannot adjust our check-in and checkout times without an additional fee. Please do not leave us negative reviews because we can't provide you an early check-in or late checkout without an additional fee. That is not what the Airbnb community is about. We take great care in providing an amazing clean cabin/condo upon check-in. This takes time & attention to detail from our very tiny team. If our times or fees don't align with your needs or budget, please do not book with us. We truly want you to be happy, and not mad at us because we can't adjust our times without a fee. We cannot arrange an early check-in or a late checkout without at least 24 hours notice. It is not possible to coordinate it the same day as you arrive, or the morning you are set to depart.

The cabin is PROFESSIONALLY CLEANED w/ disinfectant & HEPA-3 air purifier after each guest.

Please note in our listing that "beachfront" refers to having direct access to the creek. It is not a sandy beach, however Airbnb does not have a specific setting to note that it is the banks of the creek, which are rocky.

Everything except the cleaning supply closet is accessible. This property is part of a larger property with many cabins. The rest of the property is off limits at all times, as most of the cabins have long term tenants living in them. Please do not disturb them. If you are looking for a cabin in the middle of the forest, that is very private, this is not it - as noted it is on a large property, but there are many other cabins on the property in addition to this one. Always contact us via the AirBnB app for assistance! By booking this listing, your access is for the Flint cabin, and not the surrounding cabins.

The best way to get a hold of us during your stay is to contact us via the Airbnb app. If there is an emergency there is an emergency contact number listed in the cabin.

This is a vacation rental - not a hotel, we do not resupply basics or provide room service during your stay. If you are having an extended stay, please be certain to plan accordingly. No guest services are available onsite. Please do not rent the cabin if you require hotel services. We do have many helpers that live within 1 minute of this property, if there is a maintenance issue. This cabin was decorated according to the owners' specific taste. Please do not leave us a negative review due the the decor or linens not being as you would have chosen. We provide a couple rolls of toilet paper in addition to what is left on the toilet paper holder. We offer a selection of coffee/tea/cocoa pods to be used in the Keurig coffee maker as well as creamer powder, and an assortment of sugars and sweeteners.

The cabin is 1 minute away from Blackstone Rivers Ranch, and just a few minutes from downtown Historic Idaho Springs, Colorado. It takes about 4 minutes to get to the cabin from exit 240 off of I-70. We are also just down the road from Mt. Blue Sky (formerly Mt. Evans), a drive to the peak takes about 30 minutes when the road is open. The cabin is located in a small riverfront enclave near other tiny cabins. Please do not book this property if you require a large acreage property with no one else, or other structures around. There are other cabins nearby. And while this cabin is private, it is not secluded in the wilderness.

This property is part of a larger property with many cabins. The rest of the property is off limits at all times, as all other cabins have either long or short term tenants living in them. Please do not disturb them. If you are looking for a cabin in the middle of the forest, that is very private, this is not it - as noted it is on a large property, but there are many other cabins on the property in addition to this one. Always contact us via the AirBnB app for assistance! By booking this listing, your access is for the Flint cabin, and not the surrounding cabins.

While we do receive a lot of snow during the winter, 4WD is not necessary to access the property. It is located on a frontage road, just off of Highway 103, which is maintained by the county. The property itself is well-maintained. It is typically shoveled & plowed promptly during heavy storms, but this can vary by how much and how fast the snow falls. We provide a shovel for each guest at each cabin/condo. We shovel cabin/condo entrances and decks as a courtesy to guests, during their stay, when we are able to get to them. If you require shoveling at a specific time, we can attempt to schedule it in advance, but cannot guarantee a specific time. We do need advance notice. Guests should always be prepared to shovel around their own vehicles in heavy storms.

We cannot guarantee that we can answer the phone at all hours of the day and night if you call. We have one phone, and the person who answers the phone cannot be awake 24 hours a day/7 days a week. If you need anything whatsoever during your stay, you must message us via the Airbnb app. That is the only way we can provide a response. We have several staff members who monitor the messages, and can most promptly assist you in that manner.

Guests, please note that this cabin was built many, many years ago. Although it has had many beautiful updates done, it is an old building and is not ADA compliant. Some of its features may not be to current building code, but are consistent to its year of construction.

There have been sightings of bear, mountain lion, deer, elk, moose, and foxes in the area. This is their home too. Please make sure to bring all food inside at night. Do not sleep with the doors open. Animals can be curious!

Enter the creek at your own risk! We are not responsible if you injure yourself by going in the water. We do not recommend that you enter the creek, as it could be unsafe.
