Dog-friendly Jim Bridger Cabin on Coal Creek - Boulder/Golden

Closest mountain cabin to Denver International Airport(DIA/DEN). Perfect location to stay in the Colorado mountains with easy access to Boulder (17.5 miles highway to CU), Golden (15 miles), Denver (33.5 miles), Red Rocks (22 miles), Arvada, and mountain towns with easy driving access on Colorado Highway 72. Coal Creek Cabins is a 4-cabin property on 5 acres located in historic Coal Creek Canyon. Enjoy the creek trail, picnic tables, and views of steep Blue Mountain slopes + Coal Creek Canyon.

Perfect location to stay in the Colorado mountains but easily access Denver, Boulder, Golden, Arvada, and other mountain towns with easy driving access on Colorado Highway 72.

This rustic but renovated "1930 Jim Bridger Cabin" directly on Coal Creek with creek views and mountain views honors the Western America explorer Jim Bridger who was a mountain man, trapper, Army scout, and wilderness guide who explored and trapped in the Western United States in the first half of the 19th century. He was known as Old Gabe in his later years. Bridger often presented the Yellowstone region as a place of mystery and magic. For example, Bridger once described a petrified forest in Yellowstone that was home to “petrified birds that sang petrified songs.”

High speed wireless Internet all the way up the mountains to the cabins for 100 MB per second download speed + 10 MB per second upload speed for Smart LED TV apps. This is truly amazing!!!

Stellar blue jays, nuthatches, finches and robins frequent the home except in the coldest wintertime. Birdseed is sometimes provided or can be purchased to set on the deck railings for them to eat while you can watch them for the comfort inside the lodge.

Cabin was small, which we knew. Our only concern was the location, right on a busy intersection with loud traffic. Otherwise it was a good 2 day stay.

Cute, clean, and secluded cabin
Could not have asked for a better stay. Small cabin but perfect size for my boyfriend and I. Also a perfect distance from Boulder, Denver, and ski resort while still being remote. Will definitely stay again if ever in CO and recommend to couples!
