There are several byways that will take you to our location as well.  HOWEVER, GPS signals can get confused in our mountains, many GPS systems do not like our address, cell phones lose signal in our region, and some of these byways are very windy and narrow.  Unless you’re comfortable with the area, we advise following these directions.

Best Meadow Cabin

Rated 5.0 out of 5
December 31, 2023

My husband & I have stayed at this cabin 3 times. July 2022, then again Sept. 2022 & again July 2023. This is our favorite cabin with the firepit roasting hotdogs, listening to the coyotes howl at times at night. It is so relaxing here that we stay at least for 5 days.The mountains from one side to the other are beautiful. We are hoping to come back in 2024. The bed is comfortable & everything you need in the kitchen. Our daughter, Noel told us about Golden Anchors & so glad she did. Thank you Daniel & Jamie for sharing this beautiful place with us.
