The Southpaw is a 1-bedroom cabin with a sleeping loft at Grand West Village Resort, a small managed community of cabins in Lake County, Colorado. The cabin sleeps four — a queen bed in the main-floor bedroom plus two twin beds in the upstairs loft — making it ideal for a couple, two friends, or a small family with one or two kids. The main floor holds the queen bedroom, a full bathroom, the gas-fireplace living room, and the fully stocked kitchen with dishwasher. Upstairs, the loft holds the two twin beds and a 3/4 bathroom. The southwestern-facing front porch frames a direct view of Mt. Elbert (Colorado's tallest 14er at 14,440 ft). The shared resort yard has picnic tables, a swing set, and a horseshoe pit. Location is the buy: 25 minutes by car to Twin Lakes (fishing, paddleboarding, sailing in summer; cross-country skiing in winter), 25 minutes to the Mt. Elbert and Mt. Massive trailheads, and 8 minutes to downtown Leadville's Harrison Avenue restaurants and breweries. Ski Cooper is approximately 30 minutes; Copper Mountain about 40. The cabin is named "The Southpaw" after the Lost Mine Loop story of 1880s prospector Eric Jones — the name is local lore, not a typo. Managed end-to-end by Traverse Hospitality — Lake County licensed, Superhost-rated.

Leadville, Colorado, United States
The Southpaw is located in Grand West Village Resort, a small managed community of cabins on Lost Mine Loop in southern Lake County, Colorado — geographically between downtown Leadville (north) and Twin Lakes (south). Twin Lakes is approximately 25 minutes by car: in summer it's the launch for fishing, paddleboarding, and sailing; in winter, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing across the frozen lakes. The Mt. Elbert and Mt. Massive trailheads are also approximately 25 minutes — these are Colorado's two tallest 14ers (14,440 ft and 14,428 ft). Downtown Leadville (the highest incorporated city in North America at 10,152 ft) is approximately 8 minutes by car. Harrison Avenue's restaurants, breweries, coffee shops, the Tabor Opera House (1879), and the National Mining Hall of Fame & Museum are all walkable from the downtown core. Ski Cooper is approximately 30 minutes north, Copper Mountain 40 minutes east, and Vail/Beaver Creek about 50 minutes. In summer, Independence Pass to Aspen opens (about 1 hour drive). The cabin's name "Southpaw" comes from a local 1880s Lost Mine Loop story about prospector Eric Jones — the trail behind the resort retraces some of that history.
