About this property

A jewel of a cozy cottage on the stream

A lovely and convenient location for this historic house with modern comforts. The back porch sits along a stream and there are two other outdoor sitting areas to relax and enjoy the wonderful nature show. Your view will include bluebirds playing the in the trees and fantastic mountain views. The walk to the main street of town is in the 100s of feet!

This two bedroom home was built in the late 1800s so has all the character of a historic home but the convenience of a kitchen and bathroom that were updated in 2018.

Your creature comforts include two adorable bedrooms with very comfortable beds. Each room has independent heating and can be adjusted for your personal preference. A cute bathroom with a soaking tub and all the amenities to relax and enjoy after a great day of skiing, hiking, riding, walking or whatever! (It is your vacation!)
A cozy living/dining area with very comfortable furniture to relax, play games, or watch television.
A nice fully equipped and updated kitchen with soft close cabinets, appliances, washer dryer.

The drive to the nearest ski area, Loveland, is 11 miles. You feel a million miles from the city and can relax in this location while being about an hour from Denver.

The shower is in the clawfoot bathtub; a consideration if anyone in your party has a challenge stepping up.

In the summer you can open the windows a little and relax to the sound of the water running in the stream.

This is one of my favorite places to be and I hope it will be yours too.

Please enjoy and make beautiful memories!

We absolutely loved our visit to Georgetown. The house was perfect for us and the location amazingly close to the old town square. The stream and Aspen in the outdoor sitting area were so calming and beautiful.

The host was easy to communicate with. The house was old, but quaint, in a wonderful little mining town. The house is located just a block from the center of town, right beside a river. We arrived on Christmas Eve and they had set up a Christmas tree and decorated the house for Christmas. We even had Christmas dishes! We had a great stay and would come back!

My husband and I have been staying here a couple times a year for awhile now and we have never had a bad experience. We love that it's close to the creek and we can hear it at night. Mary is always very quick to respond when any issue arises, the kitchen is stocked with everything you would need to prep and make meals and the location is perfect as it's less than a block to the Georgetown historical district. We frequently see big horn sheep grazing in the front yards of the houses on that block. We will keep coming back!

Great stay in downtown

This was my 2nd time staying in Georgetown, and this cottage and location were wonderful! The kitchen is incredibly well-stocked, beds are incredibly comfortable, and the patio by the creek outside are beautiful. The cottage has all the charm (and quirks) of a historic house. I would love to stay here again!
