Why the Owner Chose Denver

One of Denver's best attributes is that it's a lively, progressive town but it has a number of great, treasured neighborhoods, offering residents a "home town" feel in the city. The Denver Highlands is no exception - it truly is one of Denver's favorite areas.

I have lived in this neighborhood since my arrival to Colorado nearly 10 years ago and have never once thought about leaving the vicinity because it is such a good place. There are endless reasons why the neighborhood is great but a few of the highlights include: it has great character; wonderful neighbors that are very friendly and good natured; people are active, social and smile; close proximity to many great restaurants with impeccable service; easy access the entire metro Denver area, interstates and mountains; and the neighborhood is quiet and safe.

The area is primarily residential and because of that, there have been little to no options for out of town guests to stay here. I selected this property because the location can't be beat - it truly is in the heart of the Highlands and offers visitors an opportunity to experience its benefits, just as if they were living here everyday.

The Unique Benefits at this Duplex - Upstairs Unit

Guests are thoroughly impressed with the condition of the unit the moment they step into it. The number one comment I have received from renters is that they feel like they are at home; they are able to relax and feel comfortable because the unit is so warm and inviting.

As mentioned in my profile, the unit underwent a thorough renovation and this is another reason it is a wonderful place to stay. Everything is new, clean, stylish and functional. Guests have a fully stocked kitchen, have a spacious and nice bathroom, have comfortable beds to sleep with cozy sheets and pillows, and have entertainment options (movies, wii, internet) that make for an enjoyable experience.

And of course, the prime location of this unit being in the heart of the Highlands makes for an exceptional experience. No need to get in a car to enjoy the fruits of this neighborhood. Within a minute's walk, guests can be at one of a few dozen restaurants enjoying great food and friendly service.

 

Owner's Map of Denver

Greetings from Denver! Thank you for taking the time to review details of my rental property. I'm Christine and have been the homeowner of this property for nearly 2 years. I spent a good portion of the first year thoroughly and carefully renovating the unit and in early 2009, the property was listed on VRBO. Since that time, I have had the privelege of being able to host many great guests.

    • Christine's VRBO is delightful! We spent 3 very comfortable nights there. Everything is new and well done. The kitchen is very nice. It's a great location - just around the corner from wonderful restaurants, and fun shops. This will definitely be at the top of our list of recommendations when asked where to stay in Denver.

    • I am writing to provide a very positive recommendation for Christine's upstairs flat! My husband and I stayed for a long weekend while visiting my daughter who just moved to Denver for her Freshman year at college. Christine's location is fantastic for us as it is very close to my daughter's student housing and literally around the corner from great restaurants as well as a fabulous wine shop. My daughter thought the place was so great she opted to stay with us a couple nights :-) Our favorite evening was spent in Christine's backyard around the outdoor table catching up with my daughter and her new college friends while enjoying the crisp autumn air and warm neighborhood atmosphere. We'll definitely stay with Christine the next time we visit Denver!

    • My husband, young daughter and I stayed here for 3 days while in the Denver area. We had a fabulous time! Christine was super friendly and helpful. The place was VERY clean, recently remodeled, and very comfortable. It was really nice for us to be within EASY walking distance to all sorts of shops and restaurants. And downtown Denver was a short drive away as well. I would totally recommend this place to anyone staying in the Denver area. As a matter of fact, we spent the last 2 nights of our stay in an Embassy Suites in northern Colorado (because the rest of our family came in for a wedding) and I actually wish we would've just stayed at Christine's...it was much more comfortable!!

    • This place is just wonderful! I stayed for a couple weeks while in town for my granddaughter's 1st birthday. It's so much nicer to have your own place that to stay in a hotel. The owner could not have been friendlier or more helpful, and my dog and I were made to feel at home. The unit was very clean, modern and comfy, and came with everything I needed. And as an added bonus, it's in a great neighborhood, literally around the corner from some of Denver's best restaurants. I would highly recommend this place to anyone coming to Denver, and hope to stay there again myself!

    • I had to find a place to stay in Denver while there for a week long project. After weighing my options on VRBO, I decided on this house. I couldn't have been happier about my decision. The house itself gives you that "homey" vibe the minute you see it. Upon arrival I was greeted with a comfortable, cozy and CLEAN atmosphere. It was such an easy place to sit down and relax. Christine was so helpful with giving me directions and recommendations on dining and things to do. She was definitely the hostess with the mostess! In addition to the house being a gem, the neighborhood quite a few shops and restaurants all within walking distance. Everyone I chatted with was super friendly and welcoming. This beats a hotel any day! The price is right, the place is fabulous and you couldn't ask for better customer service. A great alternative to staying at a typical hotel. FIVE BIG STARS!

    • What a perfect spot! Our family of four (kids are 4 and 1.5) spent a week here, and it was a perfect home base. Close to restaurants and shops, and convenient to everything else we wanted to do. Best of all, we had a real home for a week, so we could more or less maintain naps and bedtime routines and avoid eating out all the time. This is definitely how we'll travel from now on!

    • This winter I had to find a hotel for my boyfriend's parents from Argentina, who were coming for their first visit. We wanted to make sure they were comfortable, and "at home" but we could not all fit in our one-bedroom apartment to make it that way! I luckily came across this rental in the North Highlands area, that was in the price range if not much more reasonable than the downtown denver area hotels. I was skeptical at first, thinking it was too good to be true. Actually, it was too good to be true. After looking at some of the local hotels and what you get for the money, this rental offers far more than a hotel. It's like staying at someone's home- it is staying at someone's home, actually- but you get your own key, your own apartment, and it's completely locked off, and secure. The fully-stocked kitchen allowed for us to cook a full pasta dinner (groceries can be purchased nearby), and there's a GREAT wine store 2 blocks away- so it was just perfect. It's just one block from the famous 32nd/Lowell area- where everything happens in the North Highlands. The apartment home has been completely updated, new paint, new furniture, new floors, new bed, new new new... all in a very characteristic brick home. To top it off there's a fully functioning flat screen TV equipped with Wii! I travel a lot for work, and if I could find something like this to stay in during business trips- it would be perfect! I wouldn't mind traveling nearly as much! I would highly recommend the property for anyone needing a short term hotel stay, have family coming into town that you can't fit, want to come stay downtown for a couple nights... I have rented a lot of condos, and I have stayed in many hotels. This is my #1 pick, I almost don't want to write the review and keep it as my little secret. But I guess the word will eventually get out, so I will be one of the first to say it: Stay here. it's worth it!

    • If you are planning to stay in the Denver area you must check out this home. It is located in the heart of the Denver Highlands neighborhood just steps from wonderful restaurants and shopping. The home itself is completely remodeled and made for a very comfortable stay. Thanks Christine for your hospitality - I'll be back for sure.

    • We were thrilled with our stay here! Incredibly cute and cozy with everything you could possibly need and/or want while staying somewhere out of town! Full kitchen, comfortable bed...We felt like we were at home! The apartment was remarkably clean and comfortable. It was steps away from a nice little area with excellent restaurants and cute little shopping boutiques. The highway and downtown Denver is very easily accessible from this location. The apartment is impressively decorated and stocked with things to keep you entertained (like Wii, rockband, good DVD's). We were VERY pleased and impressed with our stay at this location!!! Christine is also very nice and pleasant, helpful and welcoming :) Thank you so much! Brian and Katie Staker

    • Thank you for a wonderful stay! We really enjoyed your home last week and it was much better than a hotel. The location was fantastic for dining, and being only minutes from downtown was perfect! Kim
