WHEN WILL YOU GO OUTSIDE?

Grand mountains, green forests, and glass cabins in a private valley.

THE CABINS

Custom cabins, designed for outside.

All cabins are custom architecturally designed and built for the space they sit in. In all cabins, we aim to do 3 things to bring the outside in:

  • As much glass as possible so that it feels like you’re outside, even when you’re in

  • Huge outdoor spaces (often as much deck space as cabin square footage)

  • Outdoor beds or built in hammocks (outdoor beds are consistent guest favorites)

Inside a small, cozy wooden cabin with a loft bed accessible by wooden stairs, a dining table with chairs, and a kitchenette along the right wall. Large windows with curtains are at the rear, allowing natural light.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

  • Five gold-colored stars with a dark background.

    "Outside Design did a great job with this property! It’s in an incredible area, the views are amazing, and the cabins and spa are so unique! The hot tub, cold plunge and sauna are such a great experience and you feel very in tune with nature at the cabins. The record player and speakers were a great touch at the cabin! We loved our experience and can’t wait to go back. The bath house was very clean and the market to grab snacks and drinks was a great bonus"

    Julia / The Glass Deckhouse

  • Six beige stars in a row on a transparent background.

    "Wow, what an incredibly perfect stay we had! This is by far the nicest glamping trip we've ever taken. We stayed in the Glass Deckhouse with friends, sharing the common deck area. The view was gorgeous, and the cabin was clean, cozy, and comfortable. The bath house was very clean and had large showers. The hike to get up to the cabin was steep, but it got easier the more we did it and appreciated the exercise! We will absolutely be back!"

    Elizabeth / The Glass Deckhouse

  • Six beige stars in a row against a transparent background.

    "One of the most underrated places in Colorado. We have visited 2x now, once mid summer and once mid January - both were spectacular for different reasons. We love how it feels remote but also boujee at the same time. Especially love that for just a very small fee we can bring our dogs with us, we don't typically travel inside the state to a place not dog friendly! We will be back many more times!"

    Rachel / The Hammock Hut

  • Six gold stars aligned horizontally on a transparent background.

    "What a beautiful place! The people at Outside Design really pay attention to the details that my wife and I appreciate. Each cabin is uniquely designed and appropriately equipped to insure the occupant has what they need to enjoy their vacation. Somehow they walk a fine line between keeping it simple and pampering you with elegance. It is an experience quite different than we have ever had and would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys the outdoors."

    Robert / The Box Bungalow

  • Six beige five-pointed stars on a transparent background.

    "What an extraordinarily beautiful place. The Glass Greenhouse was a comfy, bright spot to return to after days of hiking and exploring. The sauna is delightful, the bath house pristine and well-stocked. We can't wait to come back."

    Joanna / The Glass Greenhouse

  • Five gold stars indicating a five-star rating.

    "We had high expectations of Outside Design after eyeing it for months...and it fully exceeded anything we could imagine. Peaceful, beautiful location, thoughtful design, fun amenities, etc. We can’t wait to return!!"

    "Well, our review will be a lot like the others. We just had an incredible couple nights at the chalet. Beautiful serene location, and the amenities in the cabin are perfect. All in all a well-thought-out property, lodging, and overall experience. Will be back!"
