This was the perfect place for our girls weekend! We enjoyed sitting by the creek and hanging out watching movies and playing games. It was close to so many things we wanted to do, including Red Rocks and cute mountain towns. The property was clean, comfortable, and decorated beautifully by the owner (including her own incredible art)! The check-in and checkout process was so easy. Great communication from the owners and just a wonderful overall stay! We hope to be back in the future.

Listing photos were decieving. Looks like they had AI render some. Photo listings somehow don’t show that the entry door is right by the bed. Not a fan of the sticks as a headboard, it sheds and makes it not look as clean. There’s no blinds for the door window either so we had to makeshift a way to hang a blanket to cover it while we slept. We also didn’t realize initially that this was an upstairs tiny unit with landlord living directly below- but we got over that since we were only there to sleep basically. Hot tub also stopped working while we were there- disappointing because we booked it specifically for the hot tub. Thought the view would be better too, but location isn’t the greatest in our personal opinion for “views” BUT it was a good location for our travel itinerary.

Response from VrboOwner on 20 Aug 2026
We appreciate the feedback and are glad the location worked well for your travel itinerary. Our approximately 800-square-foot space was designed to offer a comfortable mountain setting, including an aspen bed handcrafted by a local artist. We also want to clarify that the listing photos were taken by a professional Evolve photographer and are not AI-generated. Our listing notes the steps leading to the unit and that the owner lives on site so guests know what to expect before arrival. The private deck overlooks the creek and is surrounded by tall spruce trees, creating the wooded atmosphere we aim to provide. We’re sorry the hot tub stopped working during your stay, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention.

This house is so perfect. It's cute and comfortable. It's quiet and right next to Chicago creek, you can hear perfectly from the hot tub. You are also close to Idaho Springs.

Weekend Getaway

We had a great mountain town weekend get away. The apartment was VERY close to activities and dining in Idaho Springs and had a nice outdoor area. The private deck entrance is very private but the lawn area is shared with the property owners. We went to a concert at Red Rocks. Short, easy drive. So glad we stayed here instead of in Denver! Would choose this property again.

Hi Taylor, we take guest feedback seriously and passed your comments on to the homeowner who would like to share the following:- We strive to provide our guests with a great guest experience, so we were disappointed to hear your stay didn't fully meet your expectations and want to take a moment to address your concerns. - It is important to note that the hot tub is only 15 yards from the front stairs of the unit, which is clearly reflected in our listing photos.- We take our listing accuracy seriously and do not advertise the unit to have a full kitchen, we do note, "KITCHENETTE: Stainless steel sink, mini fridge, microwave, Keurig coffee maker, electric kettle, complimentary coffee/tea, toaster oven, dishware/flatware, blender, Crockpot, cooking utensils", but we're sorry if you missed this when making your reservation. Additionally, our listing photos advertise the unit has a kitchenette. We do all we can to make the best possible stay, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests.

Lovely setting

The property was in a beautiful setting, and very close to town and attractions. I am, however, put off by all the extra charges that almost doubled the price. It was a higher cleaning fee compared to other listings, and we were required to do some cleaning ourselves upon checkout

Nice home.

The home was nice. The owners were helpful and accommodating. I did not realize (my fault for not reading close enough about rooms and spaces) the king bed is not in an actual bedroom. And the second bedroom had the kitchenette in it. Made it a little difficult to have some privacy. Overall, a nice place to stay.

Great location and apartment. Idaho Springs is an awesome town, 5 minutes away. Very peaceful spot. Very well-stocked for the bathroom (towels, soap, etc.). Lovely mountain stream. Super quiet - great for sleeping. A couple of comments: no "real" kitchen - don't plan on doing any meals here, small refrigerator, sink is "bar size": Stairs to apartment are narrow & steep, so if you have any mobility/access needs, this isn't the place for you! Parking spot is great, but unpaved, so not for anyone who has trouble on unpaved/uneven ground. The large bed is located in the main living area, not in its own bedroom, so be aware of that. The bed in one "real" bedroom is on the small size. You have to go through the common room by the large bed to access the bathroom, so be sure everyone in your party is cool with this. That being said, it was great for our 2-person group (father/adult son). The hot tub was awesome, and the bench by the mountain creek was a great place to enjoy some peace & quiet.

Just as advertised

Very comfortable apartment above garage. Three separate spaces to provide some privacy. Kitchen set up is good for morning coffee and drinks/snacks at night. Not ideal for cooking more than that but lots of great opportunities in town We used hot tub. Nice and clean. Listened to the running creek water. Peaceful setting!!

It was OK

We enjoyed our stay however not having a stove was a problem for us we didn't think would be and the kitchen sink is in the sitting room inside a cabinet without a light and very awkward to wash dishes that we were required to wash and put away. The one thing that was the biggest issue was the parking spot that barely fit my truck, we could not open the doors all the way and the parking place was a sheet of ice that we slipped on repeatedly. Other than that it was a beautiful location, remote enough but close to town. The hot tub was not very hot and didn't really work properly.

Lovely and Unique

This rental could not be more adorable. We were instantly in love with the unique layout, huge bathroom, and gas fireplace. We were able to take advantage of the hot tub, which was great after the days spent hiking, fishing, zip-lining, etc., in the surrounding area. We found the location to be perfectly situated amongst several activities we wanted to experience near Idaho Springs, and while the initial drive up to the front of the property was somewhat underwhelming, the actual grounds around the back are beautifully peaceful. You can even hear Chicago Creek burbling all night if you leave the windows open.

This was such a fun little cabin getaway with everything we needed for two days of recharge. Location was perfect, felt in the middle of nowhere, but only 10 minutes to town.
