About 4745 Forest Ln

Cozy 1 bedroom, 1 bath log cabin on 4.3 acres. Private location hidden in the tall pines and aspens at the base of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains in Howard, CO. Great cabin for year round living or a retreat in the mountains for recreation, hunting, or just relaxing. National Forest, BLM, and the Arkansas River are minutes away.
