Formerly known as the Moon River Cottage, now lovingly referred to as 'Hygge Sommerhus'. High in the Rocky Mountains, you'll find a cozy mountain paradise located in the midst of the Roosevelt National Forest, facing the St. Vrain River. Hygge (pronounced hue-gah) is a Danish word that is a feeling or mood that comes from taking genuine pleasure in making ordinary, every day moments more meaningful, beautiful or special. It is quality of coziness that creates a feeling of contentment or well-being. Hygge is about appreciation! We welcome people to come and take advantage of the peace and quiet this little cabin offers.

The Wild Basin entrance to the Rocky Mountain National Park is only a few minutes away. The cottage is located in the charming hamlet of Raymond/Riverside and a short, beautiful drive from Allenspark as well as being slightly further from Estes Park, Nederland, Lyons, Boulder and Denver (about 30-40 minutes). Spending the day skiing or snowshoeing at Eldora is an easy 35 minute drive!

The cottage has been professionally remodeled with modern and simple style, yet has very comfortable furniture and decor. The full bathroom has been updated. Both bedrooms have brand new mattresses, linens and furniture - no detail has been overlooked. There is a new 55" flatscreen TV with Netflix and Amazon Prime TV in the living room, as well as a TV in the master and high-speed internet available through the home (should you need it).

In the backyard, the granite peaks that rise just above your view of the river will take your breath away. During the warmer months, the lovely garden is a delightful place to dine 'al fresco' or just while away the time reading or fishing to the sound of the music of the river. The entire property is fenced for your privacy, and the safety of children, while not obstructing your view of the river and mountains beyond.
Although wildlife abounds and the hummingbirds and chipmunks will amuse you with their daily visits - we kindly request no other pets please :)
