The Retro Retreat is an adorable 50’s retreat and so close to downtown Golden. The Golden Mill was super close. A very short walk. I loved the 50’s decor, especially the prints in the bathroom, the toaster, the refrigerator, and the lava lamp. All so fun! Kendra was so easy to contact and the door was super easy to open and also secure. The bed was very comfy and we slept well in our cozy abode.

My husband and I stayed one night for a game at Mines, and the location was convenient for a short drive. The home was generally clean but would need significant updates to reach a five-star standard. Since we didn’t spend much time at the property, it worked fine for a short stay. However, I didn’t feel completely comfortable there, so we wouldn’t choose it again.

Great little place!

We're a family of 3 and this was perfect for us. A great place to base from to visit the Red Rocks, Golden and day trips to the mountains! We love how you can walk to the downtown area of Golden, that was a huge plus!

Great Golden location

This place met my top 3 criteria: clean, good bed, and quiet. We did a lot of cycling and the local path ran right next to the house. And the Golden Mill is a very cool place to grab a drink.

This location is great and the price is right. We enjoyed the retro vibe. A booklet of instructions for tv, stove, ac, etc would be helpful.Patio was a delight but the weeds did detract.

Perfect for us

The exterior looks a little rough, but step inside to 1952. We were happy we rented the Retro House for several reasons. It was clean and cozy, had neat decor, and had all the essentials anyone would need to be comfortable. The location is absolutely perfect if you want to be close to everything - historic downtown, restaurants, walking trail, tubing, Coors and other breweries, park. What else do you want? Finally, Kendra was in communication with us throughout our stay to make sure our needs/concerns were met. We loved Golden partially due to this small but cozy home and our host, Kendra. We will stay here if/when we return to Golden. Thank you Kendra.

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Check-in, communication
There was more than one communicator, type lockbox unknown by helper at check-in..which caused me to try for approximately 1-hour to get in..very frustrating. Also had all along Ben told someone would meet me at property so I was careful to be precise about arrival..not easy with a road trip or any travel for that matter. Yet like I said, did not meet me there afterall..and a different person “helped” by phone. The whole experience was so negative I ended up not sleeping there, yet had paid to do so. Lastly, this home on a rather exposed corner..not apparent from images. Otherwise, was clean and similar to pictures..last mention, only cold water exits shower head..hot routing thru tub fawcet. A really bad experience.

Super cozy spot!!!!

The beautiful lil gem near downtown Golden was a steal!!! Walking distance to all kinds of shopping and dining. Directly on a walking/Biking trail. The house lives up to its name! It is small but very intimate. All of the old house sounds and feels are there. Hearing the floors creaking brought back oldMemories from childhood. The mini retro Nintendo was the best part for me!!! My wife was in love with the styling of the house. The owner was super attentive and checked on us to make sure everything was good!!! Looking forward to staying again.
