In between at Ft Collins

My adult son and I stayed here as he was moving to a new job in Ft Collins, and it was a great platform to land during the move. Great (although small) space for a couple or close family.

This is a great place to stay while you are in Fort Collins. You can easily walk to the local coffee shops, restaurants, bars and shops. One of my favorite places to have stayed while I vacationed in Colorado.

Perfect place by the CSU campus

We stayed here while we dropped our daughter off at college, it was good for two of us, but any more would have been a tight fit, is a very cute but small place. Unit was very cozy and clean. It met our needs perfectly, though as we were out and about in the town and pretty much just slept at the place.

Trendy stay in convenient location

My adult daughter and I stayed here while visiting family in the Fort Collins area. The location was super convenient to access several nearby sites including CSU campus and Old Town. The property felt very safe, was quiet, and the features were all updated. We encountered the individuals living upstairs a couple of times and they were very friendly and welcoming. We'd definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay in this very sweet little place. There was just the right amount of room for us and it was stocked with all the things we needed to be comfortable. Stacy, the host, was very responsive and inviting. Very close to campus and they even had cruiser bikes we used to tour around town!

Great Place to Stay Close to Campus

Very close to campus and Old Town. Unit is beautifully appointed and in perfect shape. Better then a hotel room and less money. Management company is a pleasure to work with. Our son is at CSU and we will book again for our next visit.
