Moose Haven Cabin @ 22 West

We are adjacent to Routt National Forest and the Zirkel Wilderness.  Many species of wildlife call this home, moose, deer, elk, pronghorn, wolf, coyote, fox, raccoon, bobcat and many species of bird share this land so please keep your furry companions close.


The location is ideal for getting off the grid and enjoying private trails for hiking, biking, xc ski and snowshoe. 4WD or AWD preferred travel in winter. The location is remote and beautiful. The Moose Haven is at about 9000 feet along the Park Range in the Rocky Mountains.The heat is furnished by a wood stove that does require stoking through cold nights. The composting bathroom is 20 feet away and the shower house a short walk. Water is supplied as the Moose Haven is a dry cabin.The remoteness, views, ability to have pets make this spot special. There is lots of Timothy Grass for horses, llamas or alpacas. Hiking, biking, xc ski or snowshoe opportunities right from your cabin to our Elk Run Trail or into Routt National Forest and the Mount Zirkel Wilderness makes this destination hard to beat.Downstairs is a full and twin bed and a queen fold out sofa bed upstairs.There isn't running water in the cabin however well water is provided.We provide a Blackstone grill for cooking in lieu of the fire pit.There is a fire pit with a grill for cooking at the front door when no fire ban exists,Solar powers the lights and phone. We also supply the following: blankets, linens, pillows, silverware, cooking utensils, pots and pans, French Press, glasses, cups, water, firewood for heating the cabin, matches, outside chairs, picnic table and a fire-ring with grill. The composting bathroom is 20 feet from the cabin.The shared shower house is a short walk from the cabin.Our Elk Run Trail is a great hiking or biking trail in the summer and xc ski and snowshoe in the winter. Routt National Forest and Mount Zirkel Wilderness is a short hike or ride. There are over 60 trails and 70 lakes in the Zirkel Wilderness. You will be within 100 yards of the cabin from where you park. Snowshoes and a sled come in handy as the snow gets deep. In the summer check out our trail dubbed "Narnia" which takes you to where two waterfalls merge on the Roaring Ditch which runs about the end of May until about the first week of July. The trail is marked with Monarch Butterflies. We offer sledding, skiing and snowshoeing in the winter on packed trails. Buffalo Pass is a beautiful late summer drive into Steamboat Springs.Deb, Eli and Pat are always available as the wildlife rehabilitation facility is near. If you need advice about a trail or fishing or about the wildlife just let us know.You step out of your door and you are "there". You will love the remoteness and the views. Wildlife abound. Moose, elk, deer, pronghorn, bear, fox, marmot, raccoon, squirrel and many species of bird from the hummingbirds of summer to the rosy finches of winter.Check for wildlife before letting your dog outside. Thank-you for respecting the creatures here.The cabin is nestled against the Park Range.Please consider mountain conditions in the winter. Travel from Walden can be difficult in a snow storm so check your weather. Please call for more details.From Walden take 12 West approximately 4 miles to the bottom of the hill. Stay straight which puts you on 18 West. You will go over the Platte River. In approximately 2 miles you will veer left at the Y on the road where the pavement ends. The cabin is about 7 miles from this point. Stay on 22 West and look to the west and you may see the eagle flight cage. At the row of mailboxes go right. I am 1 1/2 miles on the right.

Snowy Magic at Moose Haven A-Frame
Thank you, Deb, for a wonderful weekend at Moose Haven! The Snow was beautiful (even for native Coloradoans!) and we enjoyed ourselves immensely. The kids slept upstairs on the fold-out couch (we brought our down, camping sleeping bags for them). Saturday the sun came out, and our family built snow forts, went snow shoeing, read books, and played cards before settling in for a hearty soup warmed atop the wood-burning stove. The out house situation was surprisingly very nice and clean! We will be back! —Andrea, Jason, & Kiddos

Unhelpful / poor communicating host
Host is very unwilling to help unfortunate travel plans in any sort of way. Chose to pocket money rather than help, even though we hadn’t received any communication in 12 months.

I had a great second stay at one of the 22West properties, this time at Moose Haven. Accurate listing, easy check in, and a beautiful property. The hiking trails nearby are beautiful and private, fantastic stargazing, and a low key stay. It was quite cold overnight during my stay and the wood burning stove kept the cabin warm and toasty.

Our stay was exceptional! So many beautiful photo ops right outside the cabin and on the Routt national forrest trail at the end of the road. We saw chipmunks, moose, deer and fox! I loved cooking on the fire out side. And the stove onside kept us cozy and warm at night. I love moose haven 💙

The property is wonderful, you have a great view out over north park. There is tons of access to BLM land, state land, and national forest. There are several trails on 22 west’s property that connect to national forest. The only disturbances we had were welcome wildlife disturbances, as we saw moose, deer, foxes, and tons of hummingbirds. It is a very restful retreat to stay at, and being unplugged was a wonderful break from the busyness.

Fantastic cozy cabin
We absolutely loved staying here. Deb and her family are a short distance away (and very helpful if we needed anything) we felt secluded in our own little space. This was exactly what we were looking for, an escape from the craziness of life. The sunsets and sunrises were breath taking and we loved seeing the wild life roam around the cabin. Thanks for letting us bring our dogs they loved playing in the snow.

Cabin with a Beautiful View
This A-Frame cabin had the perfect view of North Park with incredible sunrises and sunsets and wonderful opportunities for star gazing. We watched mule deer walk by every morning and listen to the coyotes at night. The cabin is a wonderful off the grid place to stay, yet with a nice shower a short walk away. Deb met us for check in and provided everything we needed. What a great host.

Gorgeous private getaway
Beautiful spot with a gorgeous view and area. You are only a short walk from the parking and check-in area, but it feels like you are all alone in the trees. We had an amazing time with our two young girls who were able to wander and explore on their own all while being in a safe spot. We absolutely loved it there and plan to return soon!!

This little A frame was interesting. Honestly, this wasn’t for everyone. My wife and I enjoyed the views, and being somewhat off the grid, but we are campers, and not unaccustomed to chopping wood, starting a fire in the morning, cooking outside, and hauling your stuff from the car to the cabin a good distance. The bunk bed was a non starter, and ended up putting the Top mattress on the floor. Having said that, Deb and her sons were incredibly helpful, hauling water and wood to the cabin. The shower house was welcome, and the outhouse cute.

Property was rustic and fun. Deb took great care of us. If you're looking to truly get away, this is the place. So quiet we could here dogs bark a mile away. Stars gazing was amazing. So nice to have a place to go to and shut the rest of the world off. But if you need to, there is cell service.
