Why the Owner Chose SolVista
As the saying goes, "LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!" We love our home being only an hour and a half from Denver. Just a short drive yet you seem a world away from the hustle and bustle of the city. You can't beat the proximity to skiiing, golfing, fishing, hiking, mountain biking, gorgeous lakes, Rocky Mountain National Park and so much more. Our home is not near any busy roads (perfect for small children) and is quiet and peaceful - what a Colorado vacation should be!

Great place to stay

Review Submitted: 02/02/12
We really enjoyed our 3 day weekend at this property. The house was a little hard to find in the dark as the street signs are a bit odd and didn't match our navigation system. Several in our party spent time skiing and snowboarding while others enjoyed just hanging out at the house and enjoying the hot tub. There is a shuttle to Sol Vista that runs about 4 times a day which is really nice, although we didn't use it since we had to be there early to get rentals for ski lessons, etc. There was room for all and we enjoyed playing some of the board games and listening to music on the wonderful sound system. There wasn't a lot of room in the cupboards for food so we had to keep it in boxes nearby but the fridge was great and we were glad of the cold water from it. It was a very comfortable place though and we had a great time.
Owner response:Thank you for your review Lori. There are typically lights that illuminate the street signs in our neighborhood. Evidently those were burned out while you were there but they have since been fixed. Depending on how much food you bring, cabinet space can be limited, but we always keep our kitchen fully stocked for the benefit of our guests so they can cook everything and anything they want. We hope to see you again!

The house was as nice as described. Plenty of room for 7 girls. We liked that it was way off the main road, very quiet and isolated. Kitchen had everything we needed and the place was very clean. We highly recommend this place to others and would like to return again for another girls' weekend!

This is the second time that we have stayed at this property. It had snowed before we arrived and snowed again while we were there. We loved it. We sat in the Hot Tub while it snowed!!! This is a very nice home, nice fireplace, big widescreen TV, comfy beds and a complete kitchen. It is also in a nice neighborhood for walking or hiking and a short drive to the City Market grocery store. Rocky Mountain National Park is about a half hour's drive. You can't go wrong staying here!

My wife, dad and I really enjoyed the house on our short trip to denver. The cabin exceeded our expectations and really provided great luxury and value. We would definitely return here the next time we come to the rockies. The location was perfect....very short and pleasant drive to the rmnp.

Beautiful House, Gorgeous Setting

We would definitely recommend staying at this home. Brian, the owner, was very accommodating, even though we booked at the very last minute. The home has everything you need, is very clean, and the location is very convenient. The views are awesome and the hot tub at night was wonderful. There were only 5 of us (2 adults, 3 children) and we had tons of room. We hardly used the finished basement area at all. We could have shared the house with another family and still been comfortable.

My family (2 grandparents, 2 parents & 2 kids) had a wonderful vacation. The cool weather was a welcome relief from the 108 temps. in Houston & Austin. The house was perfect for our family with plenty of room for everyone. We enjoyed going to Winter Park, Rocky Mountain National Park, Grand Lake, and doing the Red River rafting. We also went to Boulder and Estes Park. We enjoyed coming "home" each night to such a nice house and quiet neighborhood. Brian was very helpful and answered all my questions promptly and professionally. We bought a hummingbird feeder while we were there and had more fun watching them swirl around & even land on us. My granddaughters were entertained for hours. We have many great memories and plan to come back next year if possible. Thanks Brian for sharing your wonderful house!

Granby Ranch Home was Awesome!!!!

Review Submitted: 08/18/11
Our family of 5 from Ohio loved our stay. The location was perfect, we were able to spend several days visiting Rocky National Park, we went to Denver and to Boulder, and finally enjoyed the great recreation center in Winter Park. Sol Vista Ski Resort was giving free lift rides to pedestrians so we really got some great views. The size of the house let us really spead out, we were together, but we could still have alone time, really important with teenage girls :). We used the hot tub and spent a lot of time out on the deck. We were able to see deer on several days. The property was just as described, fabulous. We would recommend this home to everyone. We would love to plan a winter stay and do some skiiing.

We were looking for a mountain vacation spot near the Rocky Mountain National Park, and we found a gem! This property was great for the eight of us: four adults and four kids (5-13). After exploring the towns nearby, we spent the evening relaxing at this wonderful home where no detail was left unattended to. While the adults enjoyed the hot tub at night, the kids were having fun in the basement, playing hard. Making arrangements to stay at this property was very easy and convenient, communication very professional. Our was a last minute booking (decided Sat, arrived Mon), yet everything went very smoothly. This is a wonderful place for a family vacation. We are considering coming back in the winter! Thank you, Brian and Brenda!

July 2011 vacation in Granby

Review Submitted: 07/31/11
Our family of four had a wonderful time at this property. Brian was very professional in handling the pre-arrangements and very responsive to any questions or concerns we may of had before and during our stay. The home sits in Granby Ranch with wonderful views of the Rockies. We saw wildlife everyday near the home. The neighborhood is really quiet and we immediately felt at home the moment we walked in. There is lots of space, our boys spent most of their time in the basement bedroom playing the xbox and wating tv when we were at the home. The hot tub was a nice relaxing treat each evening after a busy day exploring the nearby towns and mountain adventures. I would highly recommend this property to anyone. We were looking at a bigger place in the same area before deciding on this property. Brian and Brenda's attention to detail with their welcome packet and responsiveness won us over and I am glad we chose their home.

I want to thank the property owner, Brian, for his personalized service regarding our stay. He was attentive to all my pre-trip questions. He even sent me a text notifying me of a potential road closing the day of my arrival-plus possible alternative routes! The house was very well appointed and functional for my family (2 parents, 2 children, and 2 grandparents.) We spent a great deal of time on the back deck, hiking and biking in the area. The road where the house sits is very quiet. It was perfect for my 2 year old to ride his bike each morning. The weather was absolutely fabulous with highs in the low 80s and highs in the high 40s. I'm from St. Louis where the temps were 110 that week! Thanks, Brian. We will be back! Anne
