Had a great stay, property is well kept and neat. Great location a block from lovely downtown Trinidad. Will stay again next rime I am here visiting family.
The kitchen was well stocked! We are cooks and were able to make our meals. We also used the grill. Great to have chairs to use while waiting for the steak to cook!
This was our second stay in this lovely, comfortable house. Everything we need is there and the location is perfect! One block from downtown and our favorite places!
Place is great. Perfect location. Communication with property manager not great. But over all you will not be disappointed its a wonderful place to stay!

Hi Spring,
I am so sorry that we didn't get back to you regarding the record player and the possibility of an early check-in. We are normally on top of that but it clearly fell through the cracks in your case.
We really appreciate you mentioning it in your review.
Thanks for staying at our place for a second time and we hope to have you back again.
FYI, the record player is a brand new one! Hope you enjoyed it.

Within walking distance to all downtown shops, restaurants, and activities. This house is super clean and hosts were quick to respond with answers to questions. Highly recommend!
If you’re looking to be within walking distance of downtown with incredible views of Simpson’s Rest, look no further. This house is convenient, clean, and cozy. We have zero complaints about anything. This is our second stay here and I’m sure it will not be our last!
Clean, comfortable and homey, well stocked kitchen, towels and bedding. Tasteful decorated. Fans thru out keep everything comfortable temperature wise. We used the box fan for noise control at night to mask getting up / snoring etc and it did the job! Beds were comfortable too! It was so close to everything we were alto get lots of walking in too! It was a wonderful place for us to stay! Thank you!
The Artsy Cottage is amazing. It is very neat and clean and has all the amenities. It's just like home. Full kitchen which we used to prepare a couple of meals for the friends we were visiting. Our friends in Trinidad are recommending this VRBO for other friends visiting them in the future.
The artsy cottage was perfect for all of our needs during our visit with friends in Trinidad. We utilized the full kitchen and bbq grill and enjoyed the patio area so much. We recommend this VRBO treasure very highly for your next visit to Trinidad.
Clean, comfortable, quiet, nicely furnished, great location for walking downtown.
Our first VRBO rental and we're very pleased with how it all worked out.
Great location, great amenities, and great hosts. We enjoy walking to restaurants, shops and art museums. You don't have to drive,unless you want to and there's always somewhere new to explore every time we return to Trinidad. Thanks for sharing your lovely little cottage in paradise with us yet again.

This was a very conveniently located place near Main Street and most of the downtown area where a good many of the attractions are found. The cottage is clean and cozy and has just about everything you need for a few days in Trinidad. My one request would be reading lights and a clock in the twin bed bedroom.
We both absolutely loved the house, location, furnishings, provisions and amenities! The second night, my husband actually said, I love this place!! Even the records for the turntable were our taste! We will most definitely be back next spring!
Our stay was amazing. This house was perfect and cozy. Located right off downtown, you can walk the shops. The beds were by far the most comfortable I have ever slept in. They do not skip a beat with all the items in kitchen for your use. The owners respond fast, and take good care of the property. Well worth the price. We will be back for sure!!

About the host
Hosted by Courtney Kenady
We are so excited to share our little piece of Trinidad, Colorado with you. We love Trinidad and our little cottage. Jeff and I fell in love with Trinidad because of everything it has to offer: arts, history, music, unique shopping and just hanging out enjoying the wonderful people.
Why they chose this property
Our location rocks! It's easy to access everything! Safeway is just a block away and most of the music festivals are within walking distance. This is as close to Main St and Commercial St. as you can get and still be in the Residential District. Great view of the Trinidad sign at night and great to look at Simpson's Rest and the Holy Trinity Church Steeple by day.
What makes this property unique
A shaded oasis in the middle of town. Located directly behind future Space to Create Trinidad. One block from the ArtoCade Route. Walking distance to museums, restaurants and Commercial St. And the best part? Even though it's only a block from the action, it's quiet!
