Let's Keep it Hidden

I hesitate to write a review because I'd rather keep it a hidden secret...the place was fantastic. It was Spring skiing in April and that meant sweaters on the slopes and pleasant evenings back at the condo. The pictures do not do the condo justice...it felt larger and more comfortable than you would expect. From the front door to the slopes was about a seven minute walk...with ski boots on. If there had been more snow we could have skied down to a closer point in the evening and ridden the free ski buses in the morning (they stop right across the street from the complex). The condo was very clean, very quiet and well fitted-out for appliances, flatware, silverware and glasses. The refrigerator is large and easily accomodated the meals we'd prepared ahead and the leftovers from our cooking in the condo. It is a short and easy walk to the center of Breckenridge where you can find multiple restaurants, pubs and coffee shops. We ate out only one night and that was at the Breckenridge Brewery (the original). A very good meal and very friendly staff. There is a City Market (possibly associated with Krogers) about two blocks away, and it can more than meet your grocery needs.

The condo was wonderful!! Had everything that we needed and more. Location was central to shopping and eating--only a short walk to get everywhere in Breckenridge. Condo was very spacious and cozy!! Condo owners were great to work with. Would highly recommend to friends and family.

This was the third time we stayed in these Condo's and they were wonderful as always. They are always clean and comfortable. They are convenient to everything. We are able to walk to main street and the lifts. The owners are great to work with and take pride in their unit.

For starters, Karen was very nice when we spoke on the phone. I have stayed at several other condos in Breckenridge, and their condo was the best place by far. I was impressed from the moment we walked in. The kitchen was completely stocked with cooking essentials for those wanting to cook, which we did for majority of our trip. The living room was spacious with lots of seating. FREE Netflix is offered as well as board games & videos. Bedrooms were comfortable & humidifiers were provided in each room. It was a major plus that the condo was located on the first floor. This allowed easy access to & from the outside entrance, which was just a few steps down the hall. The hot tub/pool area & elevators were also down the hall. This condo was in the perfect location. Walking distance to Main St. for all your shopping & eating needs. The bus stop is directly across the street from the condo, which makes it convenient to get from Peak to Peak. I would highly recommend this condo anyone looking for the perfect place to stay!

Thanks for having us at your lovely condo in Breck. The place is located perfectly by the lift and the town, can't get better than that. The place itself is amazing, high quality, renovated, lots of space!!! Very homey feel, and I definitely recommend this to my friends!

This condo was a gem. We loved being able to walk out of the condo and cross the street to get to the shuttle stop; the bus ride really is 5 minutes to Peak 8 or 9. The walk to Main street is quite scenic, but still less than 10 minutes. We really loved the condo itself; parking in the garage was easy and although we didn't get to use the hot tubs, they looked great. The pictures online actually didn't do the condo justice; usually it's the other way around, so we were very pleased. The owners are a pleasure to rent from and return your deposit as soon as they get the keys back. I was very impressed overall, both with the condo and the ease of renting. Price is also fantastic!

Owner response:Thank you very much for taking the time to review your stay at our condo. The hot tubs are up and running again now that the building renovation is finished (as of 12/22/11). We appreciate your kind words on our newly renovated condo. Karen & Dennis

The condo was perfect for our family. The bedrooms were large and the kitchen/dining room easily served us all. The best part was the short walk to the ski lifts! We highly recommend this condo!

My husband, daughter and I stayed here on our recent fall getaway to Breckenridge. The condo was wonderful! It was large, extremely well-maintained and perfect for what we needed. There were only three of us, but the bedrooms were large and could have easily housed a much larger family. We enjoyed the well-equipped kitchen, but were close enough to town that even our 15 month old daughter could walk to town for meals out. Breckenridge in the fall is wonderful as well. It was not busy, the weather was beautiful (we even had one snowy morning!) and just a great place to get away. The only problem that we had with the condo was adjusting the thermostat to the correct temperature. We seemed to only be able to find two settings...off or on no matter how much we adjusted it. Fortunately after a couple of days we were able to adjust each of the thermostats to a level that kept the condo comfortable, so this was just a minor annoyance. Otherwise a great place and we hope to return sooner rather than later!

Owner response:Thank you for your very nice review and for letting us know about the heating issue. We were at the condo last week doing some routine maintenance and we checked the thermostats. The heating is supplied by baseboard electric heaters with individual wall mounted thermostat controls. There are four of these traditional thermostats controlling individual zones in the condo. We found 3 of the thermostats to be defective. We have ordered new digital thermostats to replace all existing units which will solve the current problem and also, because the new thermostats are digital, provide for improved temperature control of each of the zones. Again, thank you for the review and letting us know about the thermostat issue. Dennis and Karen

We were owners previously at Cimarron many years ago and it is as nice as we remember. This condo is great for skiing with a first floor location and porch to keep skis and boards for our kids. Well kept and a prime location. We stayed for over a week and walked to skiing and into town for several great meals. We will be back in 2011!

We just returned from our trip to Breckenridge and loved this condo and its accomodations. It is very spacious, well equipped, and a perfect location. The beds are comfortable. There is a humidifier in every room. The kitchen has everything you need. The hot tub is just down the hall. The heated garage is such a bonus, something you don't understand until you are there. Ski home on the 4 o'clock run, or use the free shuttle right outside! Walk to town. Highly recommend this condo and we plan to stay here again. The owners are very helpful! Thank you.

We rented this condo for a week. The best parts were that we were within an easy walk to town and the lifts and the parking garage (what a treat to come out in sub-zero weather and your car is not freezing). Our two bedrooms with comfortable (both with king beds) and TV's; the linens & towels were extra nice. The decor & bathrooms were average but clean. The kitchen was great to work in - well equipped and we didn't need to buy spices, paper and cleaning products as they were already there! The owners were excellent to deal with and very organized- they sent us a nice package on the area with restaurants, etc. In the condo there was another book that answered any question you may have about the condo and the area. It's a good value & I'd recommend this unit!

Owner response:Thank you very much for the wonderful review. We work hard to keep our property in excellent condition and certainly appreciate the recognition. We personally visit our property every couple of weeks to check on conditions and make any changes necessary. We take comments from our guests seriously and make the changes whenever possible. Thank you again, Dennis & Karen

Comment from our Guest Book:New Year’s Vacation“This great condo was our warm sanctuary over a really cold lead up to the New Year. Being close to Beaver Run Resort and all its amenities (including Kinderhut for our son) was ideal. We enjoyed cooking some great meals in your great kitchen as well! We hope to be back next year.”

Comment from our Guest Book: "We came out to Breckenridge to enjoy snow and cold temps since we have had unseasonably warm winter in the N.E. We certainly had cold but it didn't bother us one bit - it was actually nice and especially 'cuz it kept away the crowds! The condo here made our trip complete. I can't remember ever having it this nice so I'll certainly be back here again. Thanks so much for making it possible."
