I can’t say enough about this wonderful VRBO! And Shari is the best host I’ve ever encountered and a wonderful communicator!

Loved staying here! It was a great place to spend time relaxing in the backyard and the hot tub. Loved the location and the quiet neighborhood. Only thing that would do to improve the stay would be to put knobs on the kitchen cupboards and drawers, they were difficult to open.

Thank you Cathy for taking the time to leave a review. I’m so glad our place worked well for you.
LOL, sorry about the knobs, I’ve always liked the sleek look and chose cabinets that could go either way —-but I can see where it can be annoying when you are used to knobs.
We welcome you back anytime.
This property was an in-town Oasis. The perfect house for multiple families. The hostess was wonderful at communicating and the house had everything you could ever need! Highly recommend staying with this host!!

Seven adult cousins + spouses & a smattering of kids enjoyed our time together. Backyard was amazing!! Large dining room was great for serving meals. Convenient to downtown. Kitchen was a bit small and it would have been nice to have one more shower, but it worked! Owner was very communicative and great to work with.
I booked this place for our annual guys trip and it was incredible. The guys said it was too good of a place and they didn’t want to leave to see the town ! It has every amenity you could want and is super clean. Great communication and easy check in/ check out process. Thanks again!

Awesome property to host a group. We were in town for a concert at Red Rock Arena and Whitewater rafting. Great central location with everything you need close by. Short ride to downtown Denver.
Back yard was incredible, perfect place to relax and unwind after the day's activities, or stay busy with all the yard games. Highly recommended!
We loved this home. Plenty of space, several areas to congregate. The backyard and furnishes were perfect for our large group. No one was disappointed. I

This is truly a one of a kind find. So much room for activities! A group of 9 descended upon Denver for a college reunion. The property was just as advertised and we had everything we needed (and more!). The host Sheri was always a text away and quick to respond. Weather was also perfect

This is our second stay at this beautiful home. The house is welcoming and comfortable and the backyard is off the chart fabulous. Since our last day they added a gazebo which only adds to the beautiful setting in the backyard to gather. I really cannot say enough about how wonderful this home is for a family gathering. We will be back.

Tons of family fun. Our family enjoyed this house so much. The kitchen was wonderful, really well stocked, lots of utensils, dishes, silverware, and pots and pans galore.

The house was exactly as we pictured. The large backyard, yard games, and hot tub were the perfect place to hangout when not doing other activities. Inside was roomy. The dining room had a massive table and TV where everyone could hangout in one space. The location of the house was great too. Just a 20-25 minute drive from downtown Denver.

This property was great for our family and extended family for a wedding. The host accommodated for our every need and the home didn't disappoint. There were 3-4 different gathering spaces including the vibrant and contemporary backyard with Comfy seating for 15+, firepit, TV and hot tub! When our family comes back to Colorado this will be our first choice! Thanks Shari!

About the host
Hosted by Shari Nelson
I've lived in Denver since I was a little girl, my husband and I raised our 5 kids here and we truly love Colorado. We are now grandparents to 8 absolutely adorable grand babies with whom we spend as much time as possible. Our jobs take us to the St Louis area several months of the year so our kids talked us into trying the "short term rental" world and we LOVE it! We really love sharing our family home with people who want to make forever lasting family and friend memories (but who also respect that this is our beloved home).
Why they chose this property
We have been in our home and this neighborhood for a very long time, our home has undergone numerous renovations through the years and we always choose to add additional amenities yearly to assure our short term rental is amazing and unique in the Denver area. Our neighbors are considered family.
Our backyard has been described as a "sanctuary" and it truly is. We have 2 large gazebo's, one housing an amazing bar with 2 beautiful fire-tables and an outdoor TV, the other housing a brand new spectacular outdoor ping-pong & pool-table. In addition to the 2 gazebos are 2 other additional flagstone patios, one housing 2 large dining tables seating for 16, a large fire-pit and a comfy outdoor sectional facing the 2nd outdoor TV, the other patio area housing an outdoor poker/game table and an additional conversation area --- this patio sitting right next to the 8-10 person hot tub. It's a must see backyard.
What makes this property unique
What makes our place unique is definitely our backyard, its so beautiful and welcoming, truly a hidden treasure. You would never guess you are staying in the heart of a big city like Denver. We are conveniently located close to everything. Downtown: 10-12 minute Uber or Lyft DIA: 20-30 minutes depending on time of day Red Rocks: 20 minutes Ski Resort: approximate drive times from our home Loveland: one hour. Breckenridge, Keystone, Arapahoe Basin, Copper, Winter Park, Mary Jane: 1.5 hour. Vail, Beaver Creek: 1 hour 45 minutes
★ NO PETS ALLOWED ★ We love those little (and not so little) furry bundles of joy. Sadly, our home is not suitable to accommodate them. We offer a pet dander and pet allergy free home environment for our renters.
★ NO SMOKING INSIDE ★ Please refrain from smoking inside our home! Any smoking evidence will result in odor removal and furniture and carpet cleaning fees beginning at $2000. You are welcome to smoke “whatever your heart desires” out on the flagstone patio area as long as you properly dispose of all smoking debris.
★ PARTIES/EVENTS/LARGE GATHERINGS ★ We require all gatherings over 14 people total to be pre-approved, (often we do approve depending on details) sometimes we charge an additional "event fee", the fee is determined once details of the event have been discussed and approved. All parties/events/large gatherings MUST BE PRE-APPROVED. ABSOLUTELY NO EXCEPTIONS.
★ QUIET HOURS ★ The City of Denver quiet hours for short term rentals is Sunday-Thursday 9:00pm-7:00am Friday & Saturday 10:00pm-7:00am
