About this property

YULE CREEK LODGE-Quintessential Mountain Cabin on 53 Private Acres

The mission of the Yule Creek Lodge is to provide friends and families a place to gather to enjoy the abundant pleasures of life in the mountains.

Located on 53 acres, mostly bordering National Forest, the lodge has a welcoming feel with the comforts of home. In the winter, the cabin gives easy access to some of the sweetest backcountry and nordic skiing in Colorado, along with with big views and privacy. Skin up to Marble Peak or No Name Peak or head to the quiet nordic trails found in and above the Crystal Valley. Plenty of sledding, snow shoeing and adventure opportunities are found all over the property for hours of fun for everyone.

In the winter the cabin is set up like a mountain hut. That means you bring your bedding to put on top of flannel covered beds. Pillows are provided. *No cleaning or linen fee is charged in the winter.

In the summer months there will be linens provided with an additional fee.

In the summer the opportunities are endless. The Raspberry Ridge trailhead is just steps away from the front door. Without getting in the car you can access pristine trout fishing as well as explore the town of Marble on foot. The Yule Creek Lodge is the perfect base camp to explore the Yule Lakes, Lead King Basin, Anthracite Pass, and many other high alpine adventures.

This off the grid home includes running water, a shower, indoor bathroom, refrigerator, gas cooking stove and fireplace.

The kitchen carries enough pots/pans, cutlery, plates, bowls etc. to cook and serve 10 people.

Be sure to get your provisions before you head to the Lodge as the town of Marble is not reliable for food and drink.

Sleeps: 10
Master Bedroom: queen sized bed and a Pack-n-Play in the closet.
Upstairs open sleeping plan with a view: 1 queen bed, 1 queen sized futon bed, 2 sets of Bunk Beds

1 Dog Bowl
We love our animals too! We ask that you respect the no pets on the beds request.

We have added wi-fi access with fairly high speed.

Peaceful Getaway
This cabin is located in one of the most beautiful places that I have ever seen. When we were there, we experienced below 0 degree temperatures, but the cabin stayed toasty warm! The cabin was stocked with the essentials and the only thing lacking was a TV and a microwave. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and even had a red fox visit us on Christmas morning! If you want to get away from it all, we highly recommend this property. The only suggestion for the host would be to plow the driveway in the winter. It was very difficult to get things to and from the cabin, even with the use of the sled.

A great thanksgiving retreat!
Such a wonderful experience staying at the Yule Creek Lodge while celebrating our 4th annual friendsgiving. The lodge was so clean and cozy, we were pleasantly surprised by the kitchen amenities. The stove/oven was practically new and cooked our turkey wonderfully. 10/10 experience!

Counts Family Vacation
We stayed at 3 different houses on our Colorado trip and this house was my favorite of all. It is off the grid and secluded so its very peaceful and quiet. Marble is an awesome town, would stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Cristina Akers

Host profile image
There are two super close families that share this amazing place, the Campbells (Jules and Nan) and the Dillards (Scott and Vida). Both families love living in Carbondale and enjoy all kinds of outdoor activities, including mountain biking, hiking, whitewater kayaking, skiing and more. They each have 2 kids: Nevee and Leo Campbell, and Helen and Morgan Dillard.
We were drawn to Marble because of the beauty and remoteness, as well as the backcountry skiing and hiking opportunities. When Scott discovered this magical cabin was for sale in 2013, we worked together to be able to purchase it and share it others.
Jules Campbell is from Vermont and currently works as a ski patroller at Aspen Highlands.
Nan Campbell is a true local, growing up outside of Aspen. She now works as a very talented middle school PE teacher in Carbondale.
Scott Dillard is originally from Alaska, and now works as a realtor in Carbondale.
Vida Dillard is the manager of the lodge and is from Alabama, and North Carolina.

Why they chose this property

From the first time we came to see Yule Creek Lodge we knew that this place was both of our families' dreams in reality. There is so much beauty in the surroundings, warmth and craftsmanship built into the walls, and adventure abounds all around it.
Every minute spent here supports that which we value. Family, Friends and Fun.

What makes this property unique

This cabin is truly unique. Its a log cabin, out in a gorgeous area. There is access to amazing hiking trails, skiing, atving, hunting, fishing and more, just outside the door. And amazing opportunities for just relaxing on the porch and soaking in the spectacular views.
