Wonderful Home and Great Location for a USAFA Visit/Gradaution

We had a daughter gradaute from the Airforce Academy and this was a perfect home for the gradaution week. The host was amazing, the palce had everything we needed and plenty of space for our family. It is a great place to retreat back to after a busy day. The outdoor spaces were amazing and I enjoyed the early morning quiet and views!

Couldn’t have been more pleased. Fabulous layout, quaint outdoor space and convenient location.

This home was perfect for our long weekend getaway with the family. Two bedrooms and entertainment area downstairs was perfect for the young adults. Open kitchen/living area upstairs and TVs in almost every room. The quaint patio area was perfect to enjoy the cool evenings with a view of the mountains. The owners were very friendly and helpful with quick responses to any questions.

Delightful and Comfortable!

Wonderful stay at this beautiful, cozy and very well-equipped home! The host was attentive to every detail and super responsive to all our questions. Lovely wraparound views, flagstone patios, window seats and seating nooks, rec area in the lower level. We were a party of 3, but this would be an ideal venue for hosting a large gatheriny as well. Thank You!

Perfect!

Our family had to travel to the USAFA for a burial. Vivian was amazing and compassionate during this extremely difficult time. She prepared the house perfectly and more importantly even messaged me with important and very helpful information to assist us, flatlanders, to help us have the best possible experience. The location was perfect for us to enter the north gate at the academy. The children enjoyed playing pool and making smores. The whole house was welcoming and comfortable. Thank you Vivian and Steve for every detail you did!

This is the BEST home that we have rented through VRBO for the past 5 years and I regret that we did not find it sooner!! Everything was so well stocked from the kitchen (I could never use all of the accessories) bathrooms (plenty of personal items, shampoo, conditioner, soap, toothbrushes, hairdryers and anything else you would need. The beds were very comfortable in all of the bedrooms. The basement with the ping pong table, sauna and tv was a perfect place to hang out!! Although, I spent most of my time outside on the deck snuggling on the sofa and then around the corner there was a hot tub, which I found my 21 year old son in Sunday morning at 7am!!! I love the back yard as it goes straight up and provides plenty of privacy!!! Of course AC is always a plus in Colorado this time of year!! The location was perfect about 10-15 minutes from USAFA and we found great restaurants very close! The communication with the owner was always prompt and informative! I don't know what else I can say, it was a great visit. We hope to visit again!!

We can only hope all our VRBO bookings are from people as responsible and kind as you Sheila. Best wishes for the rest of your cadets senior year and 2027 graduation to come! The Laymans

MY SECOND TIME!

In all of my travels worldwide, this is the only vacation rental that I have used twice. It is a well appointed, spacious home in an upscale neighborhood. For those that like to cook their own meals, the kitchen is fully stocked. There is a gas fireplace up and downstairs. Garage parking is available for your vehicle. It is close to shopping, restaurants, etc. I cannot think of anything that the owner has not done to make a guest's stay convenient and pleasant. Truly a Super Host.

Over The Top

This place is 5 Stars! My family and I enjoyed it from the curb to the back yard and everything in between. Vivian is an absolute pleasure to work with and was more than helpful in answering any and all my questions. She thinks of all the little details. We were in town for a family wedding and needed to 'get the wrinkles' out of the packed nice clothes, not only did she have a iron and ironing board, but she had a steamer (this received a 'this place thought of everything' from my mom ).

A Great Stay at a Great Place!

Beautiful and spacious home in the perfect location for us as we participated in and enjoyed USAFA commissioning and graduation week events! Located in a quiet neighborhood with friendly neighbors and panoramic views of the USAFA campus. Couldn't have been a more convenient location to serve as "home base" for visiting USAFA. The home had plenty of space and Vivian provided us with everything we needed to feel right at home from the minute we entered. Moreover, Vivian was great to work with throughout...including helpful "tidbits" while we were there! And, folks we had over during the week were equally impressed! Thanks again, Vivian!

Warm welcome!

From the moment that you walk in the door everything in this home says Welcome, have a wonderful stay! Lights are on, notes of welcome and half and half in the fridge for your coffee (Keurig) the next morning! A well stocked pantry and kitchen with an invitation to use anything you find, shampoo and conditioner in every shower and cozy throw blankets in every sitting area! This was a delightful home in a beautiful area, with many deer sauntering past windows in the morning. You will be glad you stayed here!

Beautiful home, beautiful area!

This is a beautiful home. We enjoyed it very much! The owners were so easy to work with. There were little homey touches everywhere.....anticipating anything you might need. We loved the ping pong table, the fresh flowers, the porch, the walking trails close by, the beautiful view, the big leather sectional in the basement, and the well stocked kitchen. Lots of restaurants close by and not too far from any of the tourist spots we visited. We would definitely stay again if we are ever in the area!

Great place to stay

Our group was so impressed with this home. It was very clean and we felt so welcomed. There were well laid instructions and some treats. Plus there were many condiments and coffee and items already in the kitchen ready to use which helped to cut down on our cost of groceries. It was nice to have a place to be able to make some food to offset eating out. Vivian was so helpful prior to coming to address our questions and concerns. The beds were comfortable and the sheets were high quality. The bathrooms had lots of extras and the showers were great. There was a lot of space to stretch out even if you have a large crowd. There was alot of games, cards and a ping pong table and pool table. They had alot of movies to watch and the TV had some many channels to choose from. Not that we had alot of time to watch since we were outside enjoying the beautiful scenery. There was a nice outdoor patio. It was lovely in the morning to sit outside and enjoy a cup of coffee, talk or listen to the birds. I highly recommend this place. The owners go out of the way to accommodate you and your needs.

Great house for USAFA Families

Nice house close to USAFA for cadet families. House was spacious and very clean. We had plenty of room and it was a very nice break from the normal hotel stay. Our cadet could rest in peace and quiet. Nice neighborhood for walking - trails were close by. Convenient location for shopping and other services. Thank you for a great experience.
