Blue sky, emerald green pine trees, and granite cliffs frame all of your adventures at Taylor River Lodge, the ultimate Colorado cabin getaway. Located on the outskirts of Crested Butte in the beautiful Taylor Canyon, the riverside property was formerly used as a locals’ general store for fishing and tackle and has since been transformed into a private, eight-cabin retreat.

This off-grid location is the perfect setting for friends, families and corporate groups to unplug and reconnect. Fishing is at the heart of the experience at Taylor River Lodge, which includes a stocked trout pond onsite, a mile stretch of semi-private river just steps from the cabins, and the famed Gunnison River only minutes away for float trips. The Lodge’s beats on the Taylor and the Gunnison have recently earned Gold Medal status, inviting guests to fish the country’s best trout water the entirety of their stay with us. Meanwhile, the surrounding mountains offer rugged single track and scenic hiking trails, and the on-site rock climbing wall, archery and hatchet throwing area will make guests nostalgic for your Scout days.

A dreamy bathhouse welcomes guests home after a day exploring the outdoors for a steam or soak, while the main lodge coaxes guests to cozy up fireside with a good book. Evenings revolve around the campfire, where stargazing and s’mores whisk everyone away to the “good ol’ days.”

Taylor River Lodge, like all of our remote hideouts, is intimate in size and located in a secluded Colorado canyon, making it an ideal hideaway for private gatherings of family and friends. The lodge can be accessed via commercial or private flights into nearby Gunnison and is within driving distance from many of the surrounding states. All meals, house alcohol, and a personal guide for a variety of Colorado summer adventures are all included, so guests never have to leave the lodge unless they choose to do so.
