Great location for walking to lots of places, clean and comfortable home, kitchen well stocked with dishes/utensils/pans, easy entry with code, alley parking spot lots of street parking, host communicated promptly, spacious, nicely decorated. We had a great stay and would stay here again.
Everything was perfect! Right across the street from Library park. Walking distance to everything in Old Town! Perfect little yard for our senior dog. Great location and space for our small grandchildren. Everything that we needed was there. Our stay was 9 days and it was fantastic!
Tessa was a great host, she was easy to communicate with. The house was great. It was within walking distance to downtown and a quick drive to CSU. I strongly recommend booking this home. FYI if you have AT&T, screenshot the home's instructions prior to getting there. AT&T's reception was not great around downtown and it took a bit to find a spot with reception to open the instructions.
Great location. Felt right at home. A little confusing to find but we figured it out. It doesn’t face a street but rather the access is from the alley. Would stay here again.
The house worked great for our Christmas visit to Fort Collins, with our two sons. The house was as advertised. Only negative was the dryer not working. Wonderful location!

Hi Richard and Diane,
We are thrilled you enjoyed our home. We did replace the dryer with a brand new model. So very sorry for the inconvenience during your stay. We do hope to host you again in the future.

We had a fantastic stay at this house. It was well-stocked with everything we needed, and the master bed was incredibly comfortable. I particularly liked the two sitting areas in the house. The owners communicated very well, and we had no issues. The house was just a short walk from town, where there were plenty of bars, cafes, shops, and other amenities. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Fort Collins!
