We were in Colorado for a wedding. The house is very nice. The kitchen was fully stocked and the beds were very comfortable. The house is off the road and very private. We used the firepit which was very nice for a chilly October evening. The house is a duplex so the bedrooms are very private. Would definately recommend this.

Very cute little place just outside of town but close to everything you need. Comfortable beds and loved they had coffee. Enjoyed the fire pit and even got to watch a bobcat hunt small prey just at the end of the driveway. Loved it.

Relaxing getaway

We really enjoyed our stay in this great house nestled in the foothills of Loveland, CO. It gives you a real homely feeling the way it’s decorated throughout and the yard is set up for grilling and even has a fire pit to relax around. There were a few maintenance issues we had to report, but we would stay here again.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about the low water pressure in the downstairs shower and understand how that would be frustrating, especially with a larger group.

Loveland hideaway.

This home was just off the beaten path. The house was clean and has been well taken care of. Our host made it easy and checked in just enough to show she cared. We plan to book this home again and hope to get the same host.

Great location, spacious, clean

We had a wedding at the Sweetheart Winery so this house was minutes from the venue. Also easy to get to the town of Loveland. It is more country than city so the views from the windows are relaxing. We didn't use the fire pit but that would be fun. Everything worked, they left coffee, sugar and creamer.

Quick Christmas Getaway

Our family enjoyed visiting Loveland. Stacy made things easy & the property was great. Only things to note…it does help to arrive in daylight to see the entrance to the property. The business sign’s light that helps you know where to turn doesn’t come on until 30 minutes after the sun is down. Other than that, we wished we could have stayed more days!

Wonderful place to stay

The home is very clean and quite comfortable. Perfect location if you want to be close to Loveland but also far enough out to relax in nature. There were elk on the hill behind the house each evening and lots of bunnies around. Check in and out process was very smooth. My only complaint was a woodpecker who hammered on the chimney to the downstairs fireplace at 530 sharp each morning. It only visited for about five minutes and was quite funny after we figured out what it was!

Loved the location and things were overall okay, but there were a few issues. The door to the small upstairs bedroom wouldn't close, and the basement doors had issues too - hinges need some work. The people staying in the large basement bedroom said it smelled like pee near the pillow area (they scrubbed it themselves, and was somewhat better). No dressers - this was a pain since we were there for a week.
