You'll love the amazing views at the Hummingbird Hideaway!

Built in 2021, this 2040 sq ft log cabin is nestled within the Sangre De Cristo Mountains in the Southeastern part of Colorado at an approximate 9100 feet elevation. It is located 95 miles north of Taos NM, 93 miles south of Pueblo CO, 42 miles east of Alamosa CO and 44 miles west of Walsenburg, CO.

The cabin is also located within Forbes Park, which is a private, gated neighborhood on 13,000 acres. The wildlife in Forbes Park is very diverse. You will find lots of deer, elk, turkey, bears, coyotes, beavers, birds and smaller animals all areas. Hunting is available in the nearby areas however there is NO HUNTING within Forbes Park. We recommend that you check with the Colorado Parks and Wildlife website to learn more about licensing and the available areas located nearby for hunting.

The spring and summer months have wonderful climates that range from 41 to 81 degrees. Winter however, can produce and average snowfall of 44.4 inches. Please note that due to heavy winter snows and the annual spring snow melt, A 4-WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLE IS HIGHLY RECCOMENDED FOR WINTER & EARLY SPRING ACCESS!

There are plenty of recreational opportunities in the area. From the Great Sand Dunes to the Historic Fort Garland Museum. We believe that you will find a great mix of relation and recreation at the Hummingbird Hideaway. Please note that Forbes Park does have certain covenants that must be followed. As such, ATV's, UTV's, and Motorcycles are not permitted inside Forbes Park.

Your privacy is of our utmost concern. However, we also believe that safety and security is an important part of your stay.

- We have installed a monitored alarm system that can be enabled at night. Outdoor motion sensing security cameras and outside motion detection lighting will help alert you of wildlife outdoors before you leave the home in the dark.
- You may arm the system as "home" at night to ensure your families safety. However, you must remember not to open any other door but the main entrance when the system is armed.
- The Outdoor security cameras are located under the deck to cover both patio entrances, on the side of the house facing both the north and south sides of the cabin and one doorbell video camera that will monitor the main entryway.
- All outdoor cameras cover the outside perimeter with lighting and motion detection of the cabin for your safety.
- There are NO indoor cameras. If you find unauthorized cameras or are concerned about certain areas, please notify us immediately so we can investigate it further.
