Cabins near Telluride

While many of Telluride's early visitors came for the gold and silver hidden in this landscape, today's campers come for the landscape itself, as powerful peaks dominate the skyline beyond this Victorian-era mining town. The San Juan Mountains set the stage for cabin adventures year-round, with Telluride serving as a popular ski destination in winter and warmer weather bringing boundless recreation the rest of the year, including fishing, hiking, mountain biking, whitewater rafting, and paddling. After an exhilarating day outside, retreat to a modern winter chalet or an off-grid cabin—some are so secluded you have to hike in. Public cabin rentals and rustic yurts are available in Ridgway State Park and the Uncompahgre National Forest, while more luxurious getaways can mean a log cabin retreat with a full kitchen, cozy linens, wifi, room for family and friends, and maybe even a hot tub. Bring your outdoor gear, and experience all that the Colorado Rocky Mountains have to offer.
