Great place to stay! The house was large, comfortable, and had a beautiful view of town. It was also an easy walk to downtown, which made everything convenient. We'd definitely stay here again.

Glad you enjoyed Mendy! It is a great view. The roads are steep. I feel like that’s what adds to the charm of Central City being an old mining town. Lots of history!

The roads are steep for sure but no one has ever had a problem. We had some trailers up here so I think it is just everyone’s own comfort level. Hope you weren’t too nervous with it. :-)

Colorado Vacation October 2024

Lovely home, clean and well equipped. Would recommend for a couple or small family. We are an elderly couple, and suggest a handrail be installed at the front steps, and access to a washer and dryer would be nice.

Great little Blackhawk Location

Very comfortable, much more spacious than I thought it was from photos. Mornings out on the patio with a cup of coffee were my favorite times. A great rental for our small family group, and loved all the cute antique touches. Only issue we had was navigating the narrow roads and parking with our F350 - luckily a neighbor stepped out to help us. If you're looking for an alternative to the casinos while you're in Blackhawk, this is a great option.

This place was a gem!! 5+ Stars! It was perfect and roomy for two couples. Very clean. Comfortable. Safe. Plenty of needed items including a lot of bath towels, blankets and even fans in the room. We loved the patio. Don’t skip this property. -Minnesotans
