Great property! Everything we needed for a week stay. Kitchen well stocked with everything needed to cook for nine!Beds were comfortable, and plenty linens and towels!
We were in Leadville for a ski weekend at Ski Cooper and this home was a great little place to recoup after a day on the slopes. Convenient location to restaurants and the slopes, and big enough for our group to enjoy!
House is close to everything. It is bigger inside than the pictures show. It had everything that we needed except for AC the first week. However, nice new fans that helped. We loved our stay!
Everything was pretty nice. The house make u feel at home. The property owner are so nice. Everything it’s pretty close to the house and the neighbor are so nice.
The house was exactly what our 3 generation family needed for skiing at Cooper! We found the kitchen plentiful, with dishes and cooking utensils. The tv rooms were great for 2 different ages and the hot water lasted for showers. Thank you
We had 6 in our group and there was plenty of room for everyone! The house was actually much larger than the pictures made it appear, which was a nice surprise. Everything was great and exactly as stated in the listing. Less than a 1/2-mile from downtown Leadville, easily walkable. Quiet street. This was perfect for our trip.
We’re not fancy people so this place was fine. You’d have to know Leadville… not much is extravagant. (That’s why we love it) We wanted to be downtown closer to the start/finish of the Leadville 100 and knew kind of what to expect. This place checked the boxes for us.

Cute little town
The home is bigger than the pictures suggest. Layout is strange, though. Kitchen is well stocked for cooking meals at home and it was great to have a washer and dryer. Mattresses are extremely firm, home heater works well. Hot water was hit or miss, so that was our biggest complaint. All 5 of us took a cold shower at least once.
We couldn’t have been more pleased with our stay at the Rugged Victorian! The property was exactly as described, rooms were spacious and comfortable and just about everything we needed was already provided and all we needed to do was grocery shop! Once unpacked, we felt at home... even our Sheepdoodle loved her stay (especially the doggie door).
The location was perfect for the start of the Silver Rush 50 race and only a few blocks from Harrison ave. We enjoyed spending time on the back deck enjoying views of Mt. Elbert, eating Mountain High Pies and drinking adult beverages :)
Communication was awesome with Thomas and Nawal. They were prompt in answering any questions and were EXTREMELY flexible when we had to modify our reservations due to a family emergency. You cannot go wrong with the Rugged Victorian! We truly enjoyed our home away from home and we know you will too!!!!!!
Overall we had a good experience. There are probably a few things hosts can do to improve the house and make things a bit more clear with check-in instructions/information fairly easily. Specifically, making sure to be clear about how check-in instructions will be delivered (stated via email in description/instructions, but then did it through messages in the app which caused some confusion), improving mattresses and pillows (they are quite poor throughout the house), and upgrading technology (the Roku device for streaming was essentially unusable it was so slow/delayed). Aside from those fairly minor things, the house suited us well for our key purpose: a place to gather with friends and our families. Accommodations are simple and straightforward, and with a couple of basic updates it would be a significantly upgraded experience. Thanks for hosting us!

"Rustic" hous check ...Discrimination check
Stayed with my family in hopes of renting much more later as our company is doing a job to bring a much needed new hospital to Leadville during a pandemic. The rustic description is correct. This is an old, run-down, neglected, mismatched, and rustic house. No AC and one single broken working fan. Mismatch furniture and furnishings. The yard is overgrown, the decks with no railings. Broken ceiling fan, leaking skylights, broken or not working thermostats. It was an interesting switch from our normal house and Leadville was a pretty quaint small town. We actually enjoyed our stay except the upstairs bedroom gets very hot and there was one sort of working pedestal fan in the house.
My real complaint is the discrimination shown by the owners. The owners determined based on "type" of people that they would refuse to rent to my crews of honest hard-working people.

Needs upkeep
While we enjoyed our visit to Leadville, this property needs some TLC before it can reasonably house 9 people. The mattresses in all rooms but one are very old, and our older members found they woke up aching from the sagging, springy mattresses in creaky bedframes. The cleanliness needs some help - kitchen was dirty and upstairs toilet had brown streaks as if it hadn’t been cleaned in ages. Sheets were rotten and ripped, plaster falling from the ceiling on the top floor. Although there is a jet tub, jets were broken. No AC, which is fine with fans on, but the fan was evidently broken by a previous party and unfixed. We were instructed on how to use the water filter but upon inspection, no filter was attached to the sink. The door stuck and took either two folks or specific handling to get into the house, difficult at night without lighting. The hot water in the showers randomly becomes scalding, making Shower Roulette a daily occurrence. Overall, the property is cute and has a lot of potential and it was great to have a roof over our heads for a reasonable price, but if we had more than four people we don’t know how we would have fared. It is understandable that old houses have quirks, but these seemed like easy fixes some attention could resolve.

Dear Mona,
I’m so sorry for your experience.
We hope to make a few changes this year.
In the mean time, we will update vrbo info which I thought we already had, as well as the welcome document we send out to clarify for guests that the fan, jets on tub, and tap filter are not usable and haven’t been for years. We also usually send that info directly to guests in the body of the welcome email, but I think it’s confusing to not have it updated on the welcome doc as well.
As far as the bedding/sheets (as well as towels) , they’re through a laundry service maintained by our cleaners and they’re always supposed to be in stellar pristine condition at all times. Thanks for the heads up!
Unfortunately, the browning of the toilet is from Leadville’s mineral deposits in the water but regardless, the house should’ve been spruced up before the first guest of the summer arrived, and our cleaners who were instructed to do so, did not.
Thanks for taking the time to let us know about your experience. Our sincere apologies again.
Best to you!
We loved our stay here during our ski trip to Colorado. We came over the New Year and found the house to be decked out in lovely Holiday decorations including a Christmas tree. Chips and salsa set out for our arrival was an nice touch! Our group of 9 adults stayed very comfortably and communication with the property manager was terrific. We would definitely return to this property on our next trip to Leadville!
Cozy Victorian home in Leadville. Easy walking distance to most everywhere in town. It was our basecamp for the Leadville Stage race. Furniture was comfy and appliances all worked fine. Upstairs sink drain was a little slow. Very quiet at night. We'd definitely stay again.
Location is excellent. House itself is a bit quirky. Poor TV reception with Roku. Kitchen is large enough and well equipped enough to cook for 10 people. Matresses need replacing and summer sun through the skylight makes the upstairs bedroom like a sauna. Maybe fine in the winter. We enjoyed the wall pictures, and the flooring is very practical.
We stayed here 5 nights. The house and location are really nice; I highly recommend staying here. The owners are great at communicating. Make sure you read their comments about restaurants and local activities in the pdf they send with the access code. The fish hatchery trailhead opened a new world of hiking trails to us.
The house was clean and very big. It accommodated our family well. It had everything we needed. I will say that the back laundry area smelled like animal urine. We had to burn a candle to cover the smell. The faucet in the upstairs bathroom was not attached to the sink making it difficult to use. The bedrooms upstairs and near the front door could use some blinds or curtains. The house and furniture could definitely use some updating. I was not thrilled that we payed a cleaning fee yet we had to take all the sheets off the beds, wash dishes, take out trash, and put all towels on the floor.
