About This Home

As of February 2026

Palmer Lake views and Deeded access. Sitting on 4 lots, this adorable 2 bedroom cabin has been completely renovated. It's hard not to fall in love with it the minute you step into the door. Snug as a bug, this cabin is year round living. The detached two car garage is used as the party garage for large gatherings and food stations. Seller is selling turn key minus a few personals.
