Owners were amazing to work with! We had a few hiccups but all was great!!! I will rebook again!!The location is perfect for all things Boulder!! The house has everything you need! Steps away from CU, downtown, hiking, biking, tubing, art shows, live music, farmers market….really can’t say enough great things!
Very nice place in the heart of Boulder. SUPER COMFY beds. Highly recommended

Matthew. Thank you SO much for taking the time. That was very nice of you....yes, I was raised in the hospitality industry and we were taught that a well rested guest is a happy guest. Bedding through West Elm - Cloud Jersey comforters with Bear, Inc. Mattresses! Best Evelyn
Wonderful stay at the perfect house. Amenities were perfect for our needs, and the place was like a home away from home. Kitchen had everything one could need, check-in process was seamless, and beds were very comfortable. Location was also ideal - about a 20min walk from Pearl street, the patio hot tub and grill were a wonderful treat, and the hosts were very friendly and communicative. Very fair nightly rate for the stay, and could not recommend this place more highly.

Thank you so much for your generous review! We are delighted to share our cozy corner of Boulder!
Things started out pretty bad with check-in...evidently, there had been a power outage that day, and the code for us to enter the property did not work. Our cell phones did not work in the area either......so we had a drive a mile or so, to get service and then we reached out to the owners, who quickly gave us another code to use. We learned that the power goes out frequently in Bend! lol. Once we got inside and reset the wi-fi, everything worked well. The place is so quiet. Bed was comfortable and pillows were great. AC worked well, too. Beautiful bathroom upstairs! We loved the park and hiking trails nearby.

Thank you, Vicki. I am truly sorry that we had a perfect storm of public service failure and yet that is some of the beauty of Colorado. We are a lot more subjects to nature’s call than other residential areas in the country. I am so glad you enjoyed the peace and comfort of my little hideaway. Congratulations again to you all for such a happy week.
This is a charming and beautiful townhome in a great location to CU campus while having the feeling of being in the mountains. The beds are extremely comfortable, the place is very clean, and host owners are very thoughtful and responsive. We had a wonderful stay.

Hi Jason. Thank you SO much for your review! We’d love your comments on how we could have made this a five star experience. Thank you very much for your positive comments! Ev & Ken
This place is equipped with everything you’ll need! Host was very responsive to questions. Definitely recommend this spot for anyone looking to relax and enjoy the area. The hosts have thought of it all. Thank you!
Wonderful location, wish we would have had tubes for Boulder Creek. Recommend securing those, looks like a great tubing river. Awesome upstairs porch and use of space in a perfect location. Cute and cuddly and quiet neighborhood with access to infinite walks.

Alex thank you so much for your kind comments. We are so happy to share the Arapahsus slice of heaven with kindred spirits!
This cozy space was just wonderful for myself, my husband, and my two teenage boys. The place itself was so thoughtfully set up that all space was used functionally and beautifully. It was well-stocked for our needs and close to everything (5 min to CU-Boulder, 5 min to Pearl Street Mall, 1 hr to Rocky Mountain National Park). The park less than a block away was wonderful and the neighborhood provided for a good stroll. I would definitely stay here again! Thank you!

Kathy thank you for taking your time to write this very generous and kind review! We hope to see you again and that you have a lovely rest of your summer! Best. The ArapaHaus group.
Arapahaus is a perfect home base for exploring CU Boulder, the downtown area and the amazing hikes at Flatirons/Chautauqua. It’s literally five minutes from everything. The hosts have made the most of the comfortable 2-story townhouse, including very comfortable beds, outdoor spaces, a brand new hot tub, a well-stocked kitchen, top end expresso machine, and ample phone chargers throughout. Perfect for a family or small group of friends!

John! Thank you for taking the time to do this! We were so happy to have you and your family and welcome you back any time you can get back to Boulder! Best, the ArapaHaus team.
I can not give this property a high enough rating. I wish I could give this property owner more than 5 stars! They were terrific to work with through the entire booking and check in process.
This property is secluded enough you don't feel boxed in by the city, but close enough to everything you can walk easily. If walking isn't your thing, there are plenty of scooters all over town to rent that we just parked right outside the cabin.
Evelyn is a great host, and goes out of her way to make sure your stay is exactly they way you had hoped.
