Why the Owner Chose Boulder
This property is more than a vacation property, it is part of our home. We live on the premises in the main house with the penthouse being a stand-alone property. This insures that while you have complete privacy, you also have the peace of mind knowing that help with anything, be it a problem with the space, the need for more towels, or advice on where to eat or to go for an adventure is just a few steps away.
The Unique Benefits at this Apartment
You will leave your heart in Boulder if you stay at the Frye house. You will not find better accommodations, views, amenities and location anywhere else. From the moment you arrive you will feel at home and relaxed. Whether your goal is to relax, check out the nightlife and dining, do business, visit family or check out the local real-estate, you will find everything you need here.
A gift from our city. A feast for the eyes and the appetite with a lovely rose garden and outdoor dining.
Some of the finest microbrews you'll ever taste. Kid and vegetarian friendly.
Wonderful breakfast, lunch and dinner. The croissants are house made. It takes 4 pounds of butter to make 36 of those bad boys. Delightful and tony.
A great hike to get your blood pumping and work up a great appetite.
Central American fare with ceviche, empinadas, seafood and more. Great happy hour.
Fantastic vegetarian fare that will make even the more devoted carnivore happy.
