The Space:
Our brand-new A-Frame Cabins are minimalist retreats nestled among the trees at the foot of Guanella Pass (officially designated National Forest and Colorado Scenic Byway). Designed with a focus on simplicity and natural beauty, each intimate A-frame blends clean wood elements with modern comfort, offering the ideal escape for two.

Inside, the open layout features a cozy queen bed positioned perfectly to overlook the rushing creek and surrounding woods, inviting you to wake up to nature every morning. The space is intentionally simple yet highly functional, equipped with a convenient kitchenette that includes a sink, coffee maker, and microwave for preparing light meals. For your comfort, a private toilet is included in the cabin, allowing for a secluded, relaxing stay.
Just steps away from your front door, you'll have full access to LostFork’s premier outdoor community center. Here, you can utilize the full bathroom and laundry facilities, relax in the welcoming seating areas, or experience a true mountain reset in the creekside saunas and natural cold plunge in the creek.
Whether you’re seeking quiet solitude with a loved one, fresh mountain air, or just a change of pace, this creek-facing A-frame invites you to slow down, watch the trees, and stay a little longer.
