About Property

Escape to the Giddy Betsy, a cozy 3-bedroom cabin and loft located at Grand West Village in Lake County, Colorado. Named after a legendary mine said to have produced marvelous riches on the slopes of Mount Elbert, this mountain retreat is the perfect home base for those seeking adventure and rustic charm.

Designed for group gatherings, the home features a thoughtful two-level layout that sleeps 8 guests. The main floor houses the primary bedroom with a king bed and full closet, a second bedroom with a queen bed, and two full bathrooms. For additional sleeping space, the upstairs loft is a kid-coded area featuring a queen bed and bunk beds, while the living room provides a sectional with a sofa bed—the ideal spot to land after a long day of hiking.

Inside, you will find a fully stocked kitchen equipped with a gas range, dishwasher, and full-size fridge, allowing you to cook dinner for the whole group without dealing with restaurant lines. The inviting living area is centered around a gas fireplace and smart TV for relaxing evenings. For convenience, the cabin also includes a washer and dryer.

Outdoor living is a highlight of the Giddy Betsy experience. Guests can enjoy a private porch with a BBQ grill and access to a shared resort yard complete with picnic tables, a swing set, and a horseshoe pit, all while surrounded by a wooded area with stunning Mount Elbert views.

Located in a prime spot for exploration, you are approximately 8 minutes from downtown Leadville and 25 minutes from Twin Lakes and the Mount Elbert trailhead. Whether you are here to climb fourteeners, fly fish, or explore the walkable shops and historical attractions of Leadville, everything is within reach.
