Property Description
Incredible Investment Opportunity in Drake, CO! This 2-bedroom, 1-bath cabin with a 2-car garage sits right above the Big Thompson River - the ultimate Colorado mountain escape. Even better, it generated $99,000 in gross rental income over the past 12 months with a transferable Larimer County VH permit! Guests love the large deck overlooking the river, complete with a private hot tub for soaking under the Colorado stars. With no HOA, you can self-manage to maximize profits. Wildlife is a daily treat, with elk, deer, and more often passing through, situated half way between Loveland and Estes Park. Rocky Mountain National Park, and downtown shops and dining are just minutes away. Inside, the cabin offers cozy charm with everything needed for unforgettable stays. The rare 2-car garage provides extra storage for vehicles, gear, or owner use. Whether you're looking for a high-performing short-term rental or a riverfront retreat that pays for itself, this one is not to be missed!
