About this property

Creek Lodge + Off Grid + Family Centered

This cabin is the real-deal mountain experience—no frills, just fresh air, towering
trees, 45 private acres, and a rich history that started with zero humans (yep, just
bears and birds). Once a wild, untamed retreat, it's now the ultimate getaway for families, reunions, weddings, and any excuse to celebrate. With a backstory
worthy of a campfire tale, this place doesn't just host memories—it makes them
legendary.

Welcome to Storm Peak Lodge – your ticket to mountain mischief and memories that smell like campfires and sound like laughter echoing through the trees. This OFF-GRID, fully solar and generator powered, 5-bedroom retreat in northern Dolores offers all the peace your soul's been craving—with room for the whole crew.

The Space:
• 5 comfy bedrooms + bunk room (perfect for kids!)
• Lofts, basement with queen pull-outs for extra guests
• Cozy living room with WiFi (yes, even here!)
• Full kitchen & laundry
• Sleeps 20+ in main lodge (50+ with both lodges)
The Property:
Sitting on 45 jaw-dropping acres bordering San Juan National Forest in Wildcat Canyon, this adventure-ready playground features:
• Rolling hills, shady woods, creek and river frontage
• Meandering trails perfect for boots and bikes
• Working ranch with mules and horses (summer/fall)
• Proudly off the grid solar-powered with eco-conscious vibes

The Experience:
From hunting to hiking, skiing to sledding, fishing to family reunions—we do it all. Trade city lights for starlit skies and traffic noise for birdsong. This is unplugged, boots-on-the- ground luxury for the soul. If you greet mud with a grin and see pine needles as forest confetti, Mother Nature has been expecting you.
Getting Around:
• Telluride/Mountain Village: 30 miles (skiing, shopping, free gondola!)
• Dolores: 20 miles (McPhee Reservoir lake days)

• Cortez: Mesa Verde, Four Corners, epic biking
• Durango: 70 miles (ziplining, museums, Narrow Gauge Railroad)
Important Notes:
• October-March requires 4x4/off-road vehicle
• Event/wedding pricing available upon request
• New outfitter building under construction (fall lease)

Bottom line: Whether you're here to relax, celebrate, have a legendary game of hide-and-seek in the woods, or go full-on mountain explorer, Storm Peak Lodge is ready to welcome you with open arms, fresh air, and maybe a friendly mule or two.

Any bookings from October - March must have a 4x4 or off road vehicle to access the property. We love love and hosting weddings as well as other private events! Please inquire for additional fees and costs that come with those types of bookings.
