We are starting an annual tradition of a yearly stay. We booked it for our first year anniversary and we loved it!!!
Five of us stayed at one of the Antero Hot Springs cabins in Feb. 2022 after a week of skiing at Beaver Creek, Vail, and Breck. We had a wonderful visit. The scenery is beautiful. The house was large and well appointed. The hot tub was very hot, so we left it uncovered for a couple of hours and it cooled down to a more tolerable temperature. Such a beautiful setting! I highly recommend this facility for a weekend get-away or longer. It pairs very well with a ski trip!
Cabins are remote with privacy. Very old, beautiful rustic cabins that come with their own private hot springs. The hot springs was amazing. It was large with plenty of place to sit. The temperature with the cover on gets up to 115 and you can use the cold water from a hose to cool it off, which only takes a couple of minutes. If you leave the top off the hot springs, the water is about 105-108, which needs just a little cooling down. I hate lukewarm water, so I loved this. And there are NO bugs in the water, it has a natural filtration system where the top layer of water runs off down the side of the hill into the creek, so it was perfect. The kitchen came fully stocked and there was lots of table space to play games. The furniture was super comfy leather furniture. The cabin is decorated with lots of antique photos. The beds came with plenty of very soft covers including electric blankets. The cabin is heated by gas stoves throughout and they have a wood burning fireplace insert as well and they provide the firewood for that. The views of the Chalk Cliffs and a fourteener (forgot the name) were spectacular out both the front and back of the cabin. This would be a fun thing to do with 3 couples since there were 3 bedrooms with queen beds. The mattresses were very comfortable and did not have the indentations from being old and worn out. You could hear the rush of the creek and it lulled us to sleep at night with the windows open. The star at night were spectacular on clear nights, and you have enough privacy to go into the hot tubs naked at night!!! There is a hike down the road to a waterfall, but it was a little long for me, so we didn't make it all the way. If you drive down the road west about half a mile there are more rushing creeks with bigger boulders that is also very pretty. Overall, thoroughly enjoyed my stay. We may be moving to Texas this summer, so this was my goodbye to the Rocky Mountains, and I couldn't think of a more memorable last mountain experience than this!!!
Private, clean, and secluded. Highly recommend. Loved the large pool that was partially covered, and flipping on the gas heating stove to warm up in the morning. Beds and bedding were comfortable. It was nice to use the down comforter. Stayed in Cottonwood Cabin. Never saw the other cabin visitors. Perfect!
Our family has spent years vacationing at Mount Princeton Hot Springs Resort - but recent changes (price, overcrowding, poor pool location choice) left us feeling like it was no longer worth it for us.
That is when I found Antero Hot Springs (we stayed in the Chalk Creek Chalet)! Just down the street, it provided an upgrade to the resort cabins.
First, the cabin was significantly larger (five queen beds in two bedrooms & walkout basement vs three queens in one bedroom & a loft).
Second, the living spaces where much nicer - there were three distinct places to read, games, talk, etc - and that doesn't even include the kitchen counter/bar.
Third, there were 2.5 bathrooms! The regular cabin at the resort has one. That is a luxury family and friends could not overstate.
Finally, having a private soaking pool was a godsend. The soaking pools at the resort have become so overcrowded that it is often hard to find a spot. That stinks when it is your primary reason for being there.
I cannot wait to see the renovated version. Writing this review was the second thing I did, right after I booked our next stay!
