Les & Alice: We all had a wonderful time. You have a beautiful home/cabin. Thanksgiving was all the more special being here. We were all very thankful that you allowed us to be here. Hopefully you will allow us back again to this beautiful piece of Colorado. Your special touches (wood, amenities, champagne) were appreciated.

We had such a wonderful time in your home. With snow in September, we couldn't have asked for a better, cozy home to stay in.

What a wonderful time we had in your gorgeous mountain home. We were pleasantly surprised that our every need was met and it wasn't necessary to make any store runs. We couldn't have asked for a better accommodations. The view, the rippling creek and peacefulness was enjoyed by all and we cretainly made some lasting family memories. We golfed, fished and gambled. Thank you so much. P.S. The champagne was a classy touch.

Dear Les & Alice: We will remember our 33rd anniversary in the your Apex Mountain Home and fond memories of the the flowing waters of Clear Creek. You did a great job preparing the home for visitors with wood for the fireplace & pot belly stove (we used both every day), CDs, Readers Digest books and, of course, the champagne. Thank you. We loved to watch the wildlife from the decks especially the hummingbirds. This mountain retreat has so much to offer for you, your family and all of your future guests. We felt very much at home thanks to your planning for our visit. The "Welcome Book" was very useful for maps, for fishing, gambling, restaurants and hiking. We did it all including a drive as far as Vail with stops at Breckenridge and Silverthorne. Thank you, we had a great time.
