About Property

Escape to the absolute quiet of the Tennessee Pass Cabin, a secluded retreat situated on 9 private wooded acres north of Leadville, Colorado. With Mt Elbert and Mt Massive framing the southern skyline, this property offers a rare blend of wilderness privacy and accessibility to the Sawatch ridgeline.

This three-story home is designed for a focused mountain getaway. The layout includes 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, accommodating a maximum of 4 guests. The third level features the master bedroom with a king bed and an en-suite bathroom boasting a separate glass shower and a freestanding clawfoot tub, alongside a loft with a queen Murphy bed. The main floor hosts a third bedroom with a queen bed and a full bathroom just across the hall. For additional flexibility, the entry level contains a multi-use room featuring a queen-over-queen bunk, a TV, and a dedicated workout space with a treadmill and free weights.

While the structured amenities list is minimal, the cabin is thoughtfully equipped for a real mountain experience:

• Full kitchen featuring a Ninja blender, KitchenAid stand mixer, hand mixer, crock pot, and a toaster oven with a built-in air fryer
• Wood-burning stove (primary heat source) and radiant backup heat
• Starlink internet and two TVs
• Large deck for mountain viewing
• Free driveway parking for 2–3 vehicles

Located in the high forest just below Tennessee Pass, the cabin is a gateway to Colorado's outdoor history, sitting in the corridor where the 10th Mountain Division once trained. You are perfectly positioned just 6 minutes from Ski Cooper, 10 minutes from downtown Leadville's restaurants and museums, and 25 minutes from Copper Mountain. The surrounding area is pure forest; while other cabins are nearby, they are tree-screened to ensure no neighbors are in sight.

Practical Information:

• Check-in: 4:00 PM via smart lock
• Check-out: 10:00 AM
• Restrictions: No pets allowed. No outdoor open fires permitted.
• Important Notes: The wood-burning stove is the primary heat source from October to April; guests who prefer not to manage a wood stove may find this unsuitable. The home has three levels with stairs required to access every floor. 4WD or AWD is strongly recommended from November through April due to the icy hillside driveway. Please be mindful of the ~10,000 ft altitude. For stays exceeding 15 days, a mandatory mid-stay cleaning is required for a fee of $150.

Whether using the property as a working basecamp during elk hunting season or a peaceful sanctuary for skiing and hiking, the Tennessee Pass Cabin delivers an authentic, undisturbed mountain experience.
