The game room was so fun. The mattresses were comfy plus the heated blanket helped my sore hiking muscles. The kitchen had EVERYTHING we needed including a fridge with many beverage options. Geri and Tom have thought of everything you could need to be comfortable. It was like staying at a friend's house.

Accommodations were better than expected. Stocked fridge was a pleasure surprise. The beds were comfortable and the electric blanket came in handy, as we had a rather chilly night at Red Rocks and I needed to thaw out. The town of Golden is appropriately named as it is a treasure. We also took advantage of the many activities in the unit, shuffle board, darts, billiards and board games.. this is a great choice for anyone wanting to experience Colorado.

This is a hidden treasure. We’ve stayed at a lot of vrbos. This one is hands down the most amazing. The owners stocked the fridge. I’ve never had anyone do that. We wanted for nothing while we were there. Views were fantastic. Owners are precious. AwesomeCommunication. I can’t recommend this place enough.
From the porch.
After sunset from porch.
Owners provided coffee, creamer AND the view!
Owners texted to let us know when the elk were in the yard. We saw the elk everyday when we were there.

What an incredible stay! Geri and Tom are excellent hosts and their property has gurgeous views! The refrigerator was stocked well, with eggs, coffee, half and half, butter, milk, soda, beer and so mulch more. All roads to the house are paved and easy to navigate. Denver and Golden are close by and a quick drive. We were in town for a concert st Red Rocks on Labor Day Weekend and their place made a perfect base for our visit. They have hummingbird feeders on the porch, making for great entertainment! Lots of activities to do at the house, shuffle board, pool and darts. Lots of movies on dvd and great WiFi. You can hike right out the backyard on the Apex Trail. Fully stocked kitchen and views you can’t find anywhere else. We highly recommend that anyone visiting the area book this beautiful space!

Beautiful property!

We had 4 adults staying at Tom and Geri’s property for 4 days in June. The house itself has everything you need - 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a full kitchen, huge laundry area, great patio and a game room. The views from the patio were unbelievable! There are hiking trails right next to the property too, so we were able to really enjoy the area!We had tickets to a red rocks show, and the house was only 15 minutes away, which was so convenient!We were able to chat with Tom for while and he was such a nice guy! We will absolutely stay here again on our next trip.

Red Rocks Concert Getaway

This is the perfect getaway with tons to do nearby, such as visiting Denver, Golden, Red Rocks and Lookout Mountain Overlook. The hosts were super accommodating, with easy checkin and checkout and had several needed items already in the fridge. They even refilled the hummingbird feeder halfway through our stay so we could keep enjoying our daily hummingbird visitors. We will definitely stay again should we come back for another concert at Red Rocks.

The list of beautiful things about this property is too long. Beauty of property and grounds, fun games inside, elk and rainbows outside, THE VIEW especially at night!! Location was amazing, close to hikes and breweries and checking out towns. So so clean. Having breakfast items in the fridge was absolutely outstanding. Not having to grocery shop before getting there was so nice. I love this place. You can tell they love their property and people. Don't think twice about booking.

About the host

Hosted by Geri Prusinski

Host profile image
My background is pediatric nursing, but I grew up in New England with a family that prioritized travel and entertaining guests. I always wanted to run a B&B, and VRBO allows me to do something similar with a few more freedoms.

Why they chose this property

The views are amazing and we enjoy sharing it.

What makes this property unique

Living in the Foothills of the Rocky Mountains offers mountain tranquility with access to exciting Colorado destinations. You can take in a ballgame or dinner and show in Denver, tour School of the Mines, or the breweries of Golden, shop Pearl Street in Boulder, make a day of touring Estes Park (AKA Rocky Mountain National Park), pick up I-70 west to big time skiing, or walk out the front door to enjoy the miles of trails at one of the many Jefferson County Open Space Parks.
