Our stay was absolutely 5 star! We loved everything about the house. The layout was great, the kitchen/pantry was stocked with anything you could ever need, the game room was amazing, and the showers (and water pressure) was top notch. The owners thought of absolutely everything and the checkout was the easiest of anywhere we have ever stayed. I highly recommend this house to couples or families.

Although Im very sad that not everyone could make it on your trip and I hope your pup recovers just fine, you were a fine guest & I really hope to have you guys again. -Marc **************** 5-7-24 update Unfortunately, issues were found two days after my initial review [above] and before the cleaner had a chance to get inside. As such, issues arise to the level that this guest is barred from renting my property again.

Graduation Getaway

The house is perfect for a family gathering. Everyone loved all the games that were available to use, plenty of beds, towels, and kitchen equipment for cooking and entertaining. Marc was so easy and attentive to work with. Thanks again for making the Graduation party a memorable weekend.

Above and beyond!

We had an excellent stay and the hosts went above and beyond to ensure that we were taken care of! The home is very comfortable and had everything we needed. I want to thank Stacy for everything she did for us during our stay. We ended up needing to extend our visit and she was extremely responsive to this request and helped work it out with VRBO. I also left something behind and Stacy personally went to the home and found it and returned it to me. I would highly recommend this home!

Marc is a kind and generous host!

Marc is a kind and generous host! We had a waterline break in our home and Marc was able to accommodate my family of 4 and business needs very last minute. Communication was top notch and the home was more than what we could have asked for! Kitchen was fully stocked (including waffles), beds were comfortable, and we had a blast in the game room down stairs. Marc helped to turn a stressful situation into what felt like a vacation. Thank you Marc!!

Great group of people & they even gifted me some syrup & other refreshments as a thank you (but really, who doesnt like syrup). Anywho, i am humbled to say that it seemed to have worked out great for them, let's just hope no more water lines burst.

Great time at the Shenanigans house!

We enjoyed our week at the Shenanigans house. It was perfect size for 4 adults & 3 teens. (We appreciate the extra bed downstairs.) This is a newer home that’s well furnished for comfort & fun. Nice open floor space of dining, kitchen & living room. Downstairs was a dream come true with plenty of activities to keep everyone entertained. Everyday we walked the open space paved path behind the house. Wellington is a cute small town, has a grocery store & coffee shop nearby. Fort Collins is 15-20 min away, depending on where you go. Thank you to Marc for hosting us, we had a great time!

Christmas get away during home renovation

Needed a place for Christmas break with adult kids home during our home renovation. The place was great and fit the bill perfectly. Marc was communicative and welcoming. The house was plenty stocked. We did bring some of our own cookwear just for familiarity, not because we couldn't have made what was provided work for us. Only negative things: The bed linens had pet hair on them. they had been laundered, but the washer and dryer had bundles of hair in them and transferred to the clean sheets. We cleaned the appliances out, rewashed the sheets and felt better then. There is a train that goes behind the house. The nearby street has no crossing gates. Therefore the train blows loudly when crossing the street. Doesn't matter what time of day or night it is. It's loud. I'm pretty sure the house description mentioned it so I can't say we weren't warned. But no printed warning could prepare us. We got used to it pretty quickly. Overall, we really appreciated the house. Very comfy, cozy week for us.

A week in Wellington, CO

Needed a place to use as a base camp while exploring Colorado and also doing a little business up in Cheyenne, WY. This home worked out very well as it was just a short 30 min drive from Cheyenne and we could also get to lots of restaurants and walking trails in Fort Collins in about 20 minutes. We also got to Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park in about 40 minutes and you are about an hour from down down Denver. The home is pretty new and the neighborhood is very clean and safe. We brought our dogs and working with Marc was a breeze. The things that surprised us were that the back yard was not fenced in...exactly as the photos show. We assumed because it was dog friendly that it would be fenced in, but that is not the case. There is a walking trail right behind the house, but you don't have a gate or door to get to it, so you will need to walk down the street and do a loop...not a big deal. The back yard is also not in great shape. Its on a steep slope and the small patio is about 4' off the ground, so if you have kids, or in our case, an older dog, we just didn't allow them back there at all for fear they would fall. You should also know there is a train that runs next to the house, right off the walking trail, which was a bit of a surprise for us late at night. The home itself is great. 3 nice bedrooms on a single story, with 2 bathrooms and a nice kitchen. There is also laundry which was helpful for us to go home with clean clothes. There is keyless entry too, so getting in and out is super easy with the code Marc will give you. The only other thing I would add is that the town of Wellington is small. Like one grocery story small. So if you want to eat something that isn't McDonalds, Subway or Burger King, you will probably be driving to either Fort Collins or Cheyenne...which isn't that bad as both are very close. Another cool thing is a local park we found on the last day...Wellington Community Park. The first time we found a dog park with a small pond for the dogs to swim and play...its on the North side of town. Great for kids, or you can even use their batting cages. Marc is a good guy....if you need a place in the area, this is a great option.

Sean, Thanks for the detailed review! I appreciated your insights and because of your good suggestions I made several changes to the backyard, including fully fencing the yard and adding a gate for easy access to the walking trail. I did want to clarify that the back patio is 24 inches off the ground at its highest point and less on the other sides. Regarding the train, I can and will include that in the listing. I hadn't up to this point because I did not realize it was an issue, but appreciate the perspective. Thanks again for the thoughtful review and I hope you enjoyed your time in Colorado.

Home away from home.

Our family of 4 and one dog enjoyed our extended stay at this property. The owner has it fully furnished with everything you need for one night or a longer stay. We loved the quiet, safe town of Wellington and used the paved walking trail and green space behind the house daily. The kids were excited to see the occasional train pass behind the home too. Marc was quick to respond to questions and checked in to make sure we were enjoying our stay. He even immediately brought us a snow shovel once he realized it wasn’t left from the previous winter. I highly recommend this property!!
