About this property

Visit History - Bus, Bike or Walk to CU, Pearl and Sundance

This home has a warm, welcoming vibe. A guest described it best: "the home gives you a hug" when you walk through the doors. Built in 1901, this Victorian Painted Lady Farmhouse sits on the corner of the entrance to Newlands Neighborhood west of Broadway. It is rumored that the house was once occupied by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young in the 1970's. If you listen hard enough you might hear something.

This house sits on 1/3 of an acre with a fantastic yard for a BBQ and lawn games even in some of the winter months. Venture upstairs to your sleeping quarters with a hang out room secluded from any bustle on the lower level. Each room has a universal phone charger. I actually iron my pillow cases for you and the sheets are line-dried in the Colorado sunshine. I leave the white walls and sheets for the Hilton (which I am not). You can expect colors that are historic and furniture that is turn of the century in each room.

I have a couple of bikes that may be used to enjoy our bike-friendly city. You will be just 3 blocks from a City Recreation center with an indoor pool and hot tub. There are also outdoor tennis and pickleball courts behind the Rec Center.

3 Bears House is only a few blocks from the foothills of the Rockies, so you can start hiking out the front door without driving your car!

My home is best suited for small families with teens/college kids or two couples. There is plenty of space to spread out and have privacy to read, watch TV, cook, etc.
without imposing on others. Please note this is my primary home and some personal items will remain during your stay. I clear adequate kitchen space and share basics with you.

Sundancers should message me so we can come up with the best plan for your stay. I am open to providing additional services if requested (daily cleans, cooking, shopping, car service, etc.). Longer stays may be negotiated and discounted depending on your situation.

I am a superhost on another site with 500 reviews if you want more references.

About the host

Hosted by Grace Thomson

Host profile image
I owned a bridal shop for 25 years in Boulder until 2006. Currently I am retired and enjoying every minute with my soulmate, John. Originally, I am from New Jersey and loving the lifestyle out here. Vacation renters like you have allowed me to stay in my beautiful home.
I have two kids that live in the area and I enjoy playing volleyball, pickleball, gardening, biking and local music!

Why they chose this property

You can walk to Pearl street in 20 minutes or ride a bike in just 10 minutes. My yard has plenty of room for yard games. My large deck provides plenty of space for outdoor gathering. Please NO Late PARTIES!

What makes this property unique

Being on a bus line is a huge bonus. You can leave your car home. I also recently installed an EV charger. I am also just two blocks from the foothills for hiking and 2 blocks from a Recreation Center with a pool.
