Fodor's Expert Review Pioneer Guest Cabins

On a creek-side meadow about 8 miles from Crested Butte, this pleasant getaway for outdoors lovers has rustic but comfortable two- and three-bed log cabins, and you can hike, bike, snowshoe, or cross-country ski from trails that start right at your door. Cabins are appointed with down comforters and antique furnishings but no TVs or phones. Each has hardwood floors, a fully equipped kitchen, and a fireplace or wood stove. Outdoors, each cabin has its own fire pit, picnic table, gas grill, and hammock. Watch for hummingbirds while lounging in an Adirondack chair.
