The cabin is an
early 1900s granite cabin set in the side of Mt Dunbar. It is one of the
original cabins in Medicine Park from the time when the park was known as the
Queen of the Southwest. The nostalgia of the era is prevalent throughout
the cabin and its landscaping. There is an original stone wood burning fireplace
in the main upstairs living area, cedar beams and many antiques and memorabilia.
The living area opens out to a full deck that has a scenic view of the falls on
Gondola Dam, with Mt Scott in the background. The deck has tables and chairs for
sitting around the chiminea on cool evenings while watching water fowl or just
enjoying the scenery. There is also a complete kitchen with a range, microwave,
and refrigerator. A half bath connects to the living area. This is convenient if
there are quests using the futon that makes into a full sized bed.
The primary
sleeping area is downstairs and has a queen sized bed with a headboard made of
an antique wagon wheel wrapped in hand forged rose and grape vines. The
master bath has a shower, and an eagle's claw tub that is great for just laying
and soaking. Just off the master bath is a dressing area with an antique dresser
and mirrors. The grounds around the cabin are landscaped with leisure gardens
complete with tables and chairs.
The cabin is
located conveniently at the edge of town within walking distance of the main
part of town, restaurants,and shops. Just across from the cabin is a scenic
sidewalk that winds along Medicine Creek past the falls by the dam into town.
The cabin is a preserved remnant of times gone by. It is sure to sooth and
settle the spirit of all.
