Things to do near Lime Mesa Trail

Your Cabin isn’t just a cabin—it’s your gateway to Colorado fun. Lime Mesa Trail offers something in every season:

Summer adventures

Summer brings blue skies and full trails.
Spend your mornings hiking or biking local trails, afternoons kayaking or paddleboarding on Vallecito Lake, and evenings grilling dinner outside your cabin.
Fishing is especially popular this time of year, with plenty of opportunities right from the shoreline.

Fall getaways

When the crowds thin out, fall colors transform the valley.
Every hillside becomes a postcard.
Hunters also find this season ideal, with easy access to the San Juan National Forest from your Cabin in Lime Mesa Trail.

Winter escapes

Winter is for cold-weather adventure seekers.
With Purgatory and Wolf Creek ski resorts nearby, plus snowmobiling trails and a fully groomed Nordic track, your cabin becomes a cozy retreat after long days outside.
Ice fishing is also popular from January through March, with tournaments that make the lake come alive in winter.

Spring refresh

Spring is a season of renewal, perfect for anyone avoiding crowds.
Trails begin to open, wildlife comes alive, and the lake starts warming up for spring paddling and casting.
