What’s cozier than a cabin or yurt in the winter? Colorado has many options for travelers to hunker down for a little vacation inside while embracing the frosty season outside.

Part of the fun of staying in a cabin or yurt is getting there, as these can be found in scenic locales such as state parks. A cabin is typically a wooden structure with maybe a single room or a couple of rustic rooms for sleeping, cooking meals, and relaxing after a day in the brisk outdoors. A yurt is a single circular room elevated dwelling with space for beds, downtime, and meal prep.
