Beautiful house and beautiful yard

We loved our stay there. The house was beautifully furnished and we had everything we needed and more. We appreciated the well-stocked kitchen. The hot tub was fun, the beds were comfortable and the patio and outdoor spaces were absolutely gorgeous. The hosts were friendly and helpful on top of all that.

Stay in Glenwood Springs

We had a lovely stay overall. We were a group of 4 adults and 5 kids and the house size suited us. The kitchen was well stocked the kids enjoyed the big yard to play in, and the adults enjoyed the deck with ample seating.

Wonderful property and superb hosts

Everything about our stay was fantastic. The home, the grounds, the location, the river access, etc. There was also ample room for our family (2 adults and 5 children) and an abundance of great activities right nearby. Not only we will be back, we now have local friends in the hosts. We hope you enjoy this home and the hosts as much as we did.

Perfect Getaway

What a wonderful place to getaway with our family. We loved the house and spending time on the front porch. Our dogs loved going down to the river. The proximity to the river can’t be beat. We will return!

Beautiful, quaint and immaculate home in the beautiful Colorado country-side.

Tim and Jenny have a beautiful little home that they've rehab'd! Lots of little touches that made our stay more enjoyable including a very nice bottle of wine and delicious dark-chocolate and Kona coffee blend that we enjoyed all weekend. New appliances, comfy furniture throughout, beautifully landscaped and nicely located. This property provided us with a perfect stay to enjoy all of what Glenwood Springs has to offer!

Glenwood

Property is great location. There is road construction at the main bridge wait thru and this can be a significant wait. Nothing to do with the property or the owner who was fantastic.

Good times in Glenwood Springs!

If you need a place to stay in Glenwood Springs, look no further. My family and I visited Glenwood Springs to do some hiking, rafting and fishing and to escape the Houston heat and rain. This home is perfectly situated in Glenwood, only minutes to downtown GS. The owners, Tim and his wife are absolutely amazing. Incredibly warm and helpful and ready to provide whatever you may need, despite the home being thoughtfully and well-appointed with everything you could possibly need during your visit.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was very peaceful and quiet with beautiful landscaping, with a path down to the Roaring Fork River and a beach area. The house is tastefully furnished and has everything you need, and everything you will probably forget at the grocery store! The house is 5-10 minutes from downtown, the Hot Springs and Adventure Park. We brought our ATV and rode some incredible trails up near Sunlight ski area, which was 20 minutes away. We met the owner Tim and he was very nice and let us know about the ATV and mountain bike trails nearby. We will definitely be back, and I’ll bring my mountain bike next time! Perfect place to stay in Glenwood! The hosts Tim and Jenny were also very responsive and friendly.

RV dwelling in the back yard

We showed up after a 14 hour drive to two cars in the driveway and an RV in the backyard. A man came out of the house and drove away, maybe the cleaning service? Another man came out of the RV then went back in. He did not speak to anybody from our party or explain who he was.There was fresh water in a bowl outside and dog toys in the yard. There is a stairwell, not just the steps to get down to the river. Owner has now posted that picture. The hoses were all over the walkway. There were no screens in the windows downstairs. Bugs behind the bathroom door. It was a hot day & no way to ventilate or try to cool it down w/out inviting bugs inside.I tried to call the host and his vm was full. We planned this trip for months and had to scramble to try and salvage a vacation and find someplace to stay. The propery has great reviews which we count on as well as photos when we book our vacation homes. There is a photo which depicts chairs in front of the river view and we could not see the river from the yard or the house. There is a house next door to the front porch you can’t see in his photos.The hot tub and fire pit are both on the side where the car was parked & where the RV is.The stairwell is overgrown, couldn’t even get down without hair pulling.
