This beautifully updated river front cottage offers a perfect blend of modern luxury, natural beauty, and peaceful seclusion. Nestled along a crystal-clear Mid St. Vrain river (not visible from Riverside Drive), it provides a private retreat surrounded by wildlife and scenic views. Though it feels like a remote haven, the cottage is conveniently located near some of Colorado's most sought-after destinations and why the short term rental history (memorialized by Boulder County) is so strong. The recently renovated cottage, with its sleek design inspired by *Dwell* magazine, combines contemporary style with the cozy warmth of natural wood. The open floor plan is filled with natural light from large windows, offering direct views of the river and wilderness. Every detail reflects a careful balance of cabin- comfort. For those who love both adventure and the great outdoors, this location is ideal. Rocky Mountain National Park is just a short drive away, perfect for hiking, wildlife viewing, and outdoor exploration. Skiing at Eldora Mountain Ski Resort is close by for winter sports enthusiasts. Additionally, the vibrant towns of Boulder, Lyons, and Estes Park are within easy reach, offering unique shops, restaurants, and a lively cultural scene. Whether you want to relax by the river, explore nature, or enjoy the energy of nearby towns, this cottage offers the best of both worlds-peaceful seclusion with easy access to adventure and modern conveniences. Perfect for year-round living (with minor adjustments) or a seasonal escape, it's a place to reconnect with nature in style. *See adjacent cabin for sale MLS 1017460...Would make a nice family compound.
