Public Remarks: This Alpine Cabin with amazing views was designed and built by master cabinet maker Rene Archambault. With little use over the years, the cabin has retained it's original beauty and near perfect condition. The knotty pine interior, T&G ceilings, and custom cherry cabinetry showcase the builder's skill and attention to detail. Massive north facing windows frame the vistas of Mt Meeker and Long's Peak in Rocky Mountain National Park, as well as Taylor Mt located the Roosevelt National Forest.
