The Zella Hut is a cabin built in the late 1800's. It was redone in the 70's and recently updated with mid century modern interiors. Now it serves as a backcountry hut in the winter and glamping cabin in the summer. During the winter it can be accessed by skinning, snowshoeing and snowmobiling. During the summer it can be accessed by car. Its a small cabin, but it can sleep 4 in comfort. No Rv campers, van and sprinter rvs ok.Zella Hut is nestled between beautiful ancient bristlecones in a very private location steps from the Decalibron Loop- 4 amazing 14ers accessible from the cabin and endless private hiking trails on the vast property. The cabin is clean, cozy and very mountain modern. Its a small cabin but very functional- note it is a one bedroom, open space. No Rvs. van and sprinter rvs ok. There are 2 king murphy beds that fold down for sleeping and fold up when not in use making the space feel very big and open.

We really loved it. The place is so serene and quiet and far out from civilization. The surrounding area is extremely beautiful too, with so many walks. We even saw bears and elks on the hill opposite us. On the whole it was one of the best experiences of our life. The cabin itself is just one single space but extremely well designed and built. Everything has been carefully planned for

Mr Hike a lot
The setting is absolutely amazing, acres of land and no one in sight. Kevin was an awesome host and gave us plenty of good tips about local hikes. The cabin is cozy and super cute, I can’t recommend it enough.

We had a wonderful time celebrating our anniversary at this cabin! It’s the perfect spot for a quick getaway. There is a generous amount of amenities provided which made us feel very comfortable. While we could’ve used the fire pit outside, we ended up not using it because the indoor wood burning stove was sufficient and convenient. It was cozy and kept us warm (would recommend cracking the front door open of the cabin while starting up the fire so it doesn’t get too smoky inside). We made good use of the grill and enjoyed all of our meals on the deck while enjoying the beautiful views. Would also recommend hiking to Windy Ridge if you’re not up for a 14er and just looking for a moderate hike. We would love to stay here again!

Perfectly roomy and cosy for three people! Our flight was severely delayed and so we ended up arriving late at night, which made it tricky to find the cabin. However once we were there everything was wonderful. Comfortable bedding, gorgeous views, an indoor fireplace (it got chilly!) and a spacious outdoor deck that we took advantage of for stargazing. Kevin was really communicative and provided great directions. Highly recommend this cabin!

The property itself was beautiful, nestled in a serene setting that truly allows you to connect with nature. However, I found the description of the cabin a bit misleading. The listing didn’t specify that it was a single-room space, and the photos made it seem like there was more room—possibly a loft or at least a more spacious layout. One of the biggest surprises was the refrigerator situation. The description mentioned that a fridge/freezer would be available during the summer months, with only an outdoor cooler in winter. Unfortunately, we had a cooler during our stay, even though it wasn’t winter. Another issue was the bathroom situation. The flushing toilet was out of service, and we were given a portable toilet instead. However, this toilet was awkwardly placed in a glass shower stall without any privacy curtain, meaning everyone in the cabin had a clear view. The outdoor solar shower also lacked a privacy curtain, which was disappointing. The indoor stove for heat was also problematic. Despite following the instructions and setting the lever to the left, the stove filled the room with smoke, making it uncomfortable to use. Overall, while the cabin’s location and setting are lovely, I think the owner should be more upfront and specific about the amenities. This cabin might be great for couples, but I wouldn’t recommend it for friends or anyone seeking a bit more privacy when it comes to bathroom and shower facilities.
