Thank you! We're glad you enjoyed your stay at our Treehouse!
The rental was wonderful and unique. Very close to shops and eateries, I highly recommend Lolita’s Grocery for breakfast and coffee. I enjoyed the town and people immensely. I can see why people live here. Located at the base of the Rocky Mountain Park and not too far from Denver this location has it all within reach. I also recommend checking out Red Rocks Amphitheater and Garden of the Gods in addition to the park. I would love to visit Boulder again and this rental made the stay so comfy and convenient. Come check it out!
