Historic Log Cabin, CO * Original 1888 schoolhouse * Year-round access * Valley views toward Rocky Mountain National Park * 10 min to Red Feather Lakes * Private well & septic * Wood stove warmth
Once in a lifetime, a property comes along that truly captures Colorado's soul. Nestled in the historic community of Log Cabin--founded in 1888 along the stage route between Fort Collins and the Poudre Canyon--this remarkable retreat includes the original one-room schoolhouse from the former town itself. Still standing proudly on its original site, the structure reflects the craftsmanship and quiet endurance of a bygone era.
Set on a private parcel with sweeping views across the valley toward Rocky Mountain National Park, this rare find offers year-round access and effortless proximity to Red Feather Lakes and Livermore (10 minutes each), Ted's Place (20 minutes), and Fort Collins beyond. You're just 5 miles from Drala Mountain Center and 24 miles from the Cache La Poudre River and the community of Rustic.
The retrofitted manufactured portion of the property provides flexible living or guest accommodations, currently used as a bunkhouse with shared gathering areas. Comfort meets simplicity here--with a private well, septic, electric hot water and propane Empire stove, plus a classic wood-burning stove for crisp mountain evenings under the stars.
Whether you envision a serene mountain retreat, a creative homestead, or a piece of Colorado history to preserve and share, this Log Cabin address invites you to slow down, breathe deep, and feel the story that lives within its walls.
