Maps and Directions
We are centrally located between Meeker, Craig, Hayden, Steamboat Springs, and Yampa on the National Scenic Byway at 52100 County Road 8 between mile markers 52 and 53 (next door to the National Historic Pyramid Ranger Station). On the map below look for the star.
Our GPS Coordinates are: 40.155524,-107.220855 |

During the summer all roads are open; however, there is no winter maintenance on over 40 miles of the Scenic Byway between Meeker and Yampa from approximately mile marker 30 through mile marker 70 which encompassed the areas between Dunckley and Ripple Creek Passes.
As a result, when sufficient snowfall occurs in the winter or hasn't melted out yet in the spring, via car or truck, the only way to access the cabin located in the Flat Tops is through Hayden or Hamilton. County Roads from Hamilton and Hayden through County Road 19 are plowed and maintained all winter. However, the road is only plowed up though the intersection of county roads 19 and 8. There is a parking area there for vehicles and trailers. The cabin is located another 2.5 miles south of the intersections of County Roads 19 and 8, on County Road 8, and can be accessed via snowmobile, foot, cross-country skis or snowshoe.
For those we don't mind snowmobiling in from longer distances, you can park either at Lost Creek on the Meeker side of the Scenic Byway or just a few miles east of Dunckley pass on the Yampa side of the Scenic Byway, and snowmobile to the cabin an approximate 20 miles from either direction.
This year we were able to drive in until December 15th; however, the road is generally unpassable in a car from approximately Thanksgiving up until Memorial Day.
Area Airports
Denver (DEN) is the nearest major airport (4 hour drive) but don't forget about Grand Junction (GJT), Eagle County / Vail (EGE) or Hayden / Steamboat (HDN) when searching for low air fares. These smaller airports are much more convenient.
