We'll stay at the gorgeous High Creek Hideaway vacation home in Fairplay as we explore some of the many exciting adventures to be had in the South Park and Arkansas River valleys.

These huts are 2WD-vehicle accessible, have running water, hot indoor showers, and sit along the route to the ever popular Commando Run and Two-Elk trails. If you've never visited a hut before, they don't get much nicer than these! Unfortunately, these are smaller huts, so spaces are limited. The cost of $140 covers two nights' lodging and most meals. Those staying at Chuck's need only pay $114. Hurry, we only have a couple of spots at Chuck's left. Please contact calbiker@live.com if you're interested.
