A perfect, cozy and welcoming place
We were so pleased with our four nights in this century-old home. Such a great location and a quiet, restful setting. Much attention to thoughtful details made it so easy to immediately feel at home. The bed was very comfortable, the towels thick, the kitchen carefully stocked, great coffee provided for the coffee maker, and some snacks provided. The dark makeup wash cloths, extra blankets and abundance of windows were additional features. We will welcome a return visit for sure. Parking was so easy and convenient.

About the host

Hosted by Shannon Westcott

Host profile image
Fort Collins has been my home since 2005. I've enjoyed raising my children here and love living in the Old Town area. I also love to travel and have been to three continents and quite a few states. I enjoy staying in VRBO's because it gives me a better sense of what the area and community are really like. I'm so happy to be a host and give travelers a taste of life in Fort Collins!

Why they chose this property

This is my favorite area of Fort Collins. It's walkable or a quick bike to Downtown, CSU, City Park or hop on the Poudre Trail and in a traditional neighborhood with old houses.
