179 Spruce Way | Black Hawk, CO | Lakefront Log Cabin on 2 Acres
A rare opportunity for buyers seeking a Colorado mountain retreat with genuine short-term rental potential or a private second home — this 3-bedroom, 2-bath log cabin sits on 2 private acres with direct lake access just minutes from Black Hawk.
Inside, the open floor plan centers on a wood-burning stove framed by vaulted ceilings and warm natural light — the kind of space that photographs well and lives even better. The fully updated kitchen features new appliances and granite countertops, and every room has been refreshed with new paint and remodeled finishes (2020). Two full bathrooms and three comfortable bedrooms make this an easy, turnkey stay for guests or a full-time escape from the Front Range.
Step onto the wraparound deck and you’re immediately in it — moose and elk moving through the pines, the lake just below, the silence that only comes with true acreage. Walk down to the water for a morning of fishing or simply let the setting do what Colorado does best. The detached two-car garage with a loft adds storage, flex space, and practical value for owners and guests alike.
Located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on city-maintained roads, 179 Spruce Way offers the privacy of a mountain retreat with the convenience of Black Hawk’s restaurants, shops, and casinos less than five miles away — and world-class skiing, hiking, and mountain biking within easy reach. Additional features include a whole-house water filtration system, new hot water heater and new furnace.
Whether you’re evaluating this as a vacation rental investment, a personal mountain getaway, or a full-time residence, this property checks boxes that are increasingly hard to find at this price point: acreage, water, privacy, and proximity. MLS listing 1842472 is a separate but adjoining acre lot being sold, make an offer for all!
