Roomy and well-equipped

Our group had an enjoyable stay. It is a quick drive off of I-70 and easy to find. There is plenty of space for people spread out (when desired), and lunch on the deck (with one's choice of sun or shade) was a highlight. We chose to avail ourselves of some lovely hiking trails a short drive away. The orientation by the owner upon arrival was very helpful, as well.

Christmas Stay

This house was decorated beautifully for Christmas, tree included! The ambience gave us all such a cozy and magical experience. There was plenty to do at the house to keep us entertained on the more snowy days. The windy road down to the house should be used with caution during the snowy/icey months, as not all parts of it has guard rails/barriers. Overall, a beautiful time was spent there, and we would definitely stay again.

Wedding Day!

We had our wedding here last weekend and it was absolutely beautiful. There was plenty of room for a tent and the gazebo that you can decorate was perfect. This property is amazing for weddings. The inside of the house was cozy, and clean. The poker tables were a hit with the groomsmen! There was plenty of room for everyone. Darcy was very communicative and let us check the property out twice before the big day! Thank you Darcy! We definitely enjoyed our time here!

Red Rocks 10 Ladies

We were a group of 10 girlfriends who stayed in this wonderful log home. It was chosen because of it's proximity to Red Rocks as we went to a concert. Also, it was like being in the middle of the mountains. Lots of scenery, deer, elk and even buffalo. The home had so many amenities that made for a great stay. Darcy was a very responsive and helpful host. We didn't arrive until late evening and she offered to be available to accept a grocery order and even put them all away. Overall it was a beautiful home/location/setting. We all agreed would stay there again.

Lovely Colorado Experience

We held out wedding here and could not have asked for a better experience. We expected a warm spring wedding and ended with 6inches of snow and the barn provided us with the options to be indoor and outdoor. We had just over 40 people and this space was the perfect size. The house was extremely spacious for the 12 of us with enough living space that we could all be together and enough space to be apart. Being able to stay at the same venue where we had the wedding made the whole event low stress as we could set up the days leading up to it and has time to clean up the day after. Darcy is also awesome to work with!! We would 100% come back to this place even without a wedding!

Beautiful views and big spacious property

Overall, the property is great as expected. Massive property with a big house to fit lots of people. Fully stocked kitchen with a lot of extra supplies available such as spices and small kitchen appliances. A couple things that were not so good: host determined check in time and were very pushy even though we traveled through a snow storm. Central heating was set to 68°F in a locked box while it was 22°F outside - the only way to heat the house above 68°F was with stationary heaters. Even though the property is “dog friendly”, the host expected us to put the dogs into the garage when leaving them home alone. Which lead us to taking the dogs everywhere with us the whole time. Additionally, dogs were restricted to where they could go in the house and weren’t allowed on furniture.

Positives: The house is beautiful and the grounds are beautiful. It’s lovely to sit on the porch in the morning and have coffee. It’s an old house that’s been upgraded but still maintains it’s rustic feel. Lots of neat historical relics. Lots of portable AC units everywhere make up for not being able to open windows. Bathrooms, kitchen, floors, furniture is all very clean. Neutral: No ventilation coupled with not being able to open windows in the bathrooms is not great when you have a full house. The water can get REALLY HOT really fast, “burn you” hot. It’s great to not run out of hot water with a full house getting ready for a wedding, but mind young kids. Negatives: With an old house that is modernized, it’s very reasonable to have flaws that add to the charm. But a couple things were frustrating or dangerous. Cookware and appliance maintenance - having to tighten handles and legs. Steam irons that shoot rust at your clothes and showerheads that don’t get descaled. The front panel of the oven was so loose, it came off and hit one of our party while cooking. We had to hold it in place until everything was cool enough to get some tools and fix it. The biggest negative, however, was that if people other than the folks sleeping at the house come over, it is considered and event. We cooked breakfast for friends and family who also flew in for a wedding. We did not think that was an event - not setting out tents or tables or bringing catering, etc. But since the folks coming
