The birdhouse apartment is delightful. Pristine, comfortable, and delightful are the first words that come to mind. The succinct and helpful guide the owners left for us and their attention to every detail we would need made everything easy. Lovely to stay in a neighborhood and dwelling that feels so homey while traveling.

Beautiful place in a great location!

This is a beautiful place located in a great location, I loved being able to walk over to Tennyson St where you can find all kinds of shops, cafes, bakeries and places to eat. Also loved that it wasn’t a far drive to Boulder, Golden, Littleton ect. The couple that owns the place are super sweet as well and make the check in process clear & easy, they were also available if I needed anything! I hope to be back next time I visit the Denver area!

A lovely home-base for a stay in Denver

The BirdHouse is a charming apartment that was clean and tidy and perfect for a couple visiting the city. Located on a quiet neighborhood street, you are within easy walking distance of Tennyson St (lined with restaurants and shops) as well as a grocery store. We also found that we were a 15-20 min drive away from some Denver highlights, including the art museum, botanic gardens, and zoo. The renting couple are incredibly friendly and welcoming, too.

Beautiful space, in a great neighborhood!

My wife and I stayed here after a few years of very minimal traveling, so hopes were high and they were completely met. The hosts are friendly and as available as you need them to be, but we had all of the privacy we would ever need. We will be back, and have already talked several family members into looking into it when they go to Denver.

Serenity and convenience, you found home!

Located in a very walkable area, this updated and immaculate loft apartment was everything stated in the listing and more. No detail is overlooked, from the modern full kitchen, amazing walk in shower, to the super comfy bed with tons of pillows. AC worked great, super easy check in, spotless upon arrival and even had fresh cut flowers in a vase displayed cheerfully. The hosts are accessible and very helpful with local info, but completely unobtrusive. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a Denver oasis and FYI, very easy access to nearby Boulder.

'Found our Denver Home Away From Home

This flat couldn't have been more perfect for my husband and me. It's within walking distance of several restaurants and shops on Tennyson, but also close to the Highlands and downtown. The space is new, clean and modern, with many artful accents. Eric and Elizabeth were fabulous hosts and a pleasure to meet.

Great place with ample space to work and rest, good wifi, a nice walkable neighborhood, lovely hosts, and a pleasant patio. Clean and well-maintained. Cutely decorated but not at all cluttered. Very open and bright. Mattress is memory foam. Hosts communicate well and in a timely fashion. I need to cook while away from home (can’t eat out multiple days in a row for health reasons), and the kitchen here is nice. I would have loved the kitchen to have one larger cooking pot, and perhaps an update to some of the frying pans (warped bottoms). Otherwise, kitchen amenities are great. I would not hesitate to stay here again, and recommend it highly.
