Wonderful Stay!

Review Submitted: 08/27/11
We had a week long family get-together with 8 people. The home is large with great accomodations. It is very well stocked with all the necessities, and Jeri was very helpful and patient to answer all of our questions. The location is perfect. Estes Park and Colorado Springs are easy day drives with Golden, Denver, Evergreen and Genesee just minutes away. As a bonus, there was wildlife in the yard everyday!

FABULOUS FAMILY REUNION

My family rented this gorgeous mountain home for our reunion. It easily slept all 11 of us with room for more. Family from New York, Illinois, Wisconsin, and Kansas could not get over the beautiful setting. Right on cue every morning the deer walked through the property as the sun was rising over the mountains. All the comforts anyone would ever want are provided and the home is spotless. All appointments, furniture, bedding and bathroom accessories are of top quality. Even those of us living here in Colorado appreciated staying here. When it was time to leave, everyone voted for coming back to this exact spot for the next reunion. Thanks Jere, for offering such an inviting home. Also the location couldn't be more convenient to visit Buffalo Bill's Grave at the top of Lookout Mountain which winds down to Golden on the other side. Golden is a quaint town and the home of the Coors Brewery. Going east or west from the home's location takes you straight to the ski areas on West I-70 and East I-70 takes you straight to downtown and the easiest route possible to the airport. Jere is a great quide and can answer any questions or concerns you might have.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS WONDERFUL HOME!! We rented the beautiful Log Lodge for the weekend of my son's wedding which was held at The Pines at Genesee. OMG! The home was unbelievable beautiful with every amenity imaginable. We had the Rehearsal Dinner there on Friday night and everyone raved about the home and the peaceful setting. It was minutes from The Pines which made it so convenient for everyone. The home is beautifully decorated in true log cabin ambience, clean, quiet and very, very comfortable! The beds were wonderful and the master suite must be seen to appreciate! The owner was also wonderful to deal with and accommodating in every manner possible! Great to meet her! We definitely intend to stay here again and I can't wait until that day! Thank you, Jeri, for everything! Eileen

Last minute family gathering...we were fortunate to secure this home. Beautifully decorated and loaded with everything you might need to entertain. Several lazy afternoon spent in the zero gravity chairs on the deck observing nature. Close to all major activities (25 minutes to Central City/gold mine tours, hiking, and Denver!). Quick access to Interstate with peaceful surroundings. The grandkids enjoyed the yard and activities. Master bedroom is exceptional! Comfortable beds!

Our family had the very good fortune to find an exceptional home in which to gather and spend a perfect Christmas together! Without question, this splendid log lodge was our ideal Christmas home with it's spacious and grand rooms giving us the warmth of the holiday season. The location in Genesse is ideal with Denver and all it's offerings nearby, and the ski resorts just an hour away. The site the home rests on is beautiful with a grand driveway leading you up to the beautiful Log Lodge and giving you very enjoyable privacy while fully enjoying all that nature has to offer. The lodge offers one of the largest master bedroom suites I have ever seen, while giving you a very comfortable family room, a game lounge, excellent kitchen with granite, extra large formal dining room, spacious living room with panoramic views of the grounds and mountains. The fireplace offers the special warmth that make the atmosphere perfect. Our 30 day visit is one that we will remember forever. We hope that you find your special experience as we did.
