Antero Hot Springs! Salida and Buena Vista Colorado. Cottonwood Cabin is a restored, hand-hewn log, split-level cabin. It was used as the old Cottonwood Lakes post office at the turn of the century, and then moved (by horse train) to its current location around 1920. The addition was built on site, as was the quartz fireplace. The aging owner, Alma Cowgill, hand-built the fireplace after being unimpressed with the mason’s initial attempts. Though smaller than Hortense, most people find that Cottonwood has a magical charm that you can’t quite put your finger on.

Warmth despite the snow on the ground and majestic mountains as a backdrop. Crackling fires in kiva fireplaces and smoke billowing from chimneys. Taos Ski Valley usually has the best snow in the state. This town, which sits on a mesa at the base of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, magically speaks to the soul. This isn't Santa Fe, the neighbor less than two hours down the way, the tourist mecca with the flashy arts scene and chic clientele. Schedule-free Itinerary?
