Amazing Stay!
Our family of 3 generations (from ages 50 to celebrating a 2nd birthday while there) from St. Louis and Salt Lake City meet in the Front Range to vacation together annually. This time we chose Nederland and this amazing home. Louis was a pleasure to deal with via email and phone. He truly wanted us to enjoy every aspect of the home and surrounding area! Upon arrival, what peace to find everything was just as described, and what a happy surprise to find gifts of local candy and coffee waiting for us! (So good we bought more to take home!) The home was immaculate. All of the beds were comfortable and the linens high-end. The layout of the home made it perfect for everyone to be together, yet individual families or napping babies could have privacy and quiet when needed. The house was a very short drive to town, yet felt fairly remote. There was only a short distance to be traversed off of pavement, and we had no difficulty without 4 wheel drive, even after the inch or two snowfall on our second day. The location was also great for those in the family who run. Our girls ran each morning on the sparsely traveled road the home sits on, and there are trails around the lake across the paved road below. The view from the deck and huge windowed wall was spectacular! We used the binoculars conveniently provided by the owners to watch ducks and geese on the lake and to scan the mountainsides for wildlife. We even had a large, fluffy red fox nosing around on the hillside right off the deck one morning. We had no difficulty cooking together as the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. And with Nederland so close, we had easy access to any groceries or wine we wanted. Nederland also has quaint, fun shops and a gorgeous carousel that was the highlight of the trip for our little ones!
The ONLY negative was that the hot tub was too small for all of us to use at the same time. But it was a quality hot tub kept sparkling clean without harsh chemicals! We would definitely recommend this home for a vacation! And we hope to return as soon as we decide on the dates for our time together next year!
