Perfect Landing Spot for Visiting Colleges for a Couple of Days!

We brought our boys to visit School of Mines and CU Boulder, and this was the perfect landing spot. So easy to get to all of the fun of Golden, and the school. We used all 3 of the comfortable beds, and even though we didn't use the kitchen, it was very well-equipped. I also appreciated the great communication with the actual owners!

Perfect location

Such a great place to stay in Golden! The condo was beautiful and clean with great mountain view’s from the patio. It was the perfect location! We were able to enjoy concert at red rocks, beautiful long hikes, local breweries, and restaurants. All with only a short drive. Within walking distance to downtown Golden. Would definitely return:)

Perfect location and great host!

We loved our stay! We have a student at the local college and the location was perfect to walk to his campus and to downtown Golden. It was comfortable, and plenty big enough for my wife and, my high schooler, and even my college student to spend the night (one slept on the pull-out couch). And Dean (the owner) was super helpful in offering advice on things to do and just generally being responsive to any questions we had. Will absolutely be staying here again.

Clean, peaceful and convenient

The property was very clean and included very comfortable accommodations. The property was peaceful and quiet with the view from the front being a view of the golf course/park. The location was convenient to drive to the mountains for snow activities and for Golden and Denver. The host was knowledgeable and respectful. Really enjoyed our stay.
