Excellent home and host

The home was lovely and was just as described in the listing. Steve was one of the best hosts we’ve had. Communication was great and he was able to accommodate a couple requests that made our trip easier. He sent us an online guide book that has all the information you need (like how to work the door lock, where to park, where the dumpsters are, etc). Highly recommend this home. It was a very enjoyable and smooth experience for me and my friends and family.

Very clean and well managed

My friends and I have stayed in at least a dozen Big Boulder-area short term rentals over the past 10 years. After a while they blend together since the layouts and interiors tend to be very similar. However this one stands out. Most importantly, it is extremely clean and well maintained. The instructions provided (such as for parking and check out) are clear and not cumbersome. Communication from the manager was friendly and helpful. It felt right-sized for my group of 1 couple 3 single adults - but if your group includes kids or more people willing to share, you could double that amount. So if this is the right size and price for your trip, you should book it without hesitation.

Mint-condition home at the right location!

Wonderful experience, overall. We tried-out VRBO for the first time for 4 families, including mine with a toddler. Although the description is accurate, some additional details were left out - - for instance availability of first-aid kit, TV in multiple rooms, etc. I highly recommend this this property. It’s centrally located by big boulder and lake harmony. The beds were very comfortable, and the bedding was neat. If anyone is driving Tesla, no need to worry about charging. A couple of Tesla supercharges (250 kW) are just 6 miles from the home. The manager (Steve) is highly responsive and considerate. It felt like a home away from home. Must try this one!

Great house with some problems that should be resolved before someone gets hurt at that property.

The house we rented was lovely, but some of the major elements of the house need to be corrected. We had about an inch of ice on the steps leading up to the front door, and the steps are very steep. What a hazard!The garage door was our entry into the house once we got the code to the garage door. But we found out that the garage door keypad did not work, except for two or three times when the weather seem to get warmer. The owner said it worked 2 weeks ago. So the two young men we had with us 22 year old and a 30 year old would close the garage inside the house and then run to the door before it closed. Some thing we could have never done with our age if they wouldn’t have been there. The other thing that I felt was really poor was operation of the gas fireplace. The remote did not work and I think that should’ve been mentioned when we rented the house instead having to make yet another call to the owner who said yeah it doesn’t work that way. When you pay 1800 for three days stay in the house I expect those things to work especially walking in through the front doorway. The lower level bedroom bed was very small, I don't think it was a double bed. Other than that everything else was fine.

Response from VrboOwner on 6 Jan 2025
Sometimes in life stuff happens that’s outside of your control. It’s unavoidable. As an owner, what I pride myself on is how I respond when these situations arise. In this instance, ice accumulated on the stairs from snow melting on the roof. This is not something that’s ever happened before in the three years we’ve owned the home. Upon learning of the situation, I immediately called our HOA who handles snow removal to send someone out. In the meantime, to make sure our guests could enter the home safely, I gave them the code to the garage (which is not typically provided to guests). I visited the home today after the guests checked out and was able to open and close the door using the key pad with the instructions I provided to the guests. Regarding the fireplace, I’m a little surprised by the comment as we provide detailed instructions on how to operate the fireplace in our guidebook and most guests don’t have an issue. Still, when the guest texted me to let me know they were having trouble, I was happy to talk them through it and had it working for them within 2 minutes. I’m sorry these issues came up during Bobby’s stay, but I’m glad I was able to quickly resolve them so they could enjoy their time in our home.

When I took a job doing public relations for a national vacation rental company, my wife and I fell in love with having the comforts and space of home while traveling with our family. This eventually led us to buy a vacation home of our own which we now have the privilege of sharing with fellow travelers like you. I am a big believer in the Golden Rule so my promise to you is to always treat my guests as I would wish to be treated when staying in a vacation rental myself.
