Creekside Mountain Escape (The Shack)

Creekside Mountain Escape Our cabins are nestled among old-growth ponderosa pines, aspen groves, scrub-oaks, and rock outcroppings, with a beautiful year-round flowing creek running nearby. Spot local wildlife like deer, fox, turkey, bear and the occasional elk. Rocky Mountains with small-town comforts. We offer high speed fiber-optic internet and reliable cell service (a rare find so close to the mountains) making it easy to work or stay connected. The space RyeBeach is nestled at the foot of Greenhorn Mountain, flanked by 420ft of Greenhorn Creek, which we affectionately call "The Beach." Guest access You're welcome to enjoy any outdoor space around your cabin and along Greenhorn Creek. As owners, we personally maintain the property, which means you might see us working on the grounds a few days a week. In rare instances, we may need to access guest cabins during your stay for emergencies or to maintain essential services like heating, preventing frozen water lines, or restoring internet. We reserve the right to access cabins for these purposes at all times. Other things to note Local Attractions & Amenities Guide Welcome to your guide for exploring the area around RyeBeach!
