About this property

Charming Vintage Hideaway 2 Blks to CSU

Welcome to your private hideaway just two blocks from CSU and a short stroll to Old Town. Tucked within a fenced garden, this retreat has been lovingly remodeled to blend vintage character with modern comfort. Heated floors in the kitchen and bathroom warm your toes on crisp mornings, while summer stays are cooled with air-conditioning or an evening breeze through garden-framed windows. Step outside to view the private vegetable garden and listen to ducks chatting in their pond next door.

The Hideaway is tucked within a quiet, secluded compound, with friendly ducks and chickens next door. Long-term neighbors surround the property, creating a peaceful community feel.

We’re just two blocks from CSU and a short walk to Old Town — home to great restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, bars, and nightlife.

Cafe Vino, Nick’s, and the CSU Flower Gardens are all just an easy stroll away.

We had a wonderful stay at Carol’s place! She was incredibly responsive, accommodating, and made the entire experience easy from start to finish. The location was perfect—close to everything we wanted to do while still feeling peaceful and relaxing.The home was comfortable, cozy, and thoughtfully stocked with just about everything you could need, including little essentials in case you forgot something. It truly felt like a home away from home.We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend Carol’s place to anyone looking for a comfortable, welcoming place to stay!

About the host

Hosted by Carol Parker

Host profile image
Since 1975, Gary has lovingly cared for this unique property. He raised two children here, and it will always be his home. A native Coloradan, he enjoys hiking, camping, mountain biking, and telemark skiing.

In the late 1970s, bluegrass musicians gathered here to strum and pick the evenings away. In the photo, he’s playing the fiddle — one of many musicians who passed through the front house over the years.

As for me, I’ve been in Colorado since 2004 and am still learning the joys of hiking and camping — though this California girl hasn’t taken to biking or skiing just yet! I’m here to look after you during your stay at the Hideaway and to help with anything you may need.

Why they chose this property

The Hideaway is tucked within a quiet, secluded compound, with friendly ducks and chickens next door. Long-term neighbors surround the property, creating a peaceful community feel.

We’re just two blocks from CSU and a short walk to Old Town — home to great restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, bars, and nightlife.

What makes this property unique

The Hideaway was built sometime before 1905, the year the lots in this neighborhood were platted. We’re not exactly sure of the original construction date — only that this little house has been standing here for a very long time. The property line on the north side even wraps around its foundation, a unique reminder of its early beginnings.

The main house in front was built in 1925 and still feels like a beautifully preserved time capsule, just as grand as the day it was completed.
