Exceptional property. They aren’t exaggerating about the calm, Zen atmosphere. After a whirlwind of wedding activities, it was healing to return to this home to chill and relax. And the hot tub was the icing on the cake. Had a bit of a glitch with the tub, and Gregory the owner could have more prompt and helpful in rectifying it. Would definitely recommend and will probably return.

We had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful Boulder home! Four of us stayed here while attending yoga training, and it truly felt like a modern Zen retreat. The space is absolutely gorgeous—thoughtfully designed, peaceful, and incredibly comfortable.The beds and linens were so cozy, and the bathrooms—with their rain showers—felt like a spa experience after long training days. One of our favorite spots was the sunroom-style seating area, surrounded by windows where we could relax and watch birds gather around the lovely water feature. It created such a calm, grounding atmosphere.The location was perfect—close to hiking trails, easy access to roads, great restaurants, and not far from downtown Boulder. Even though the home is in a neighborhood, we were pleasantly surprised by how private and secluded it felt. The hot tub was a highlight in the evenings—such a peaceful way to unwind.Thank you so much for sharing this incredible space with us. It truly enhanced our time in Boulder, and we would absolutely love to return!

CU Boulder Graduation Weekend

Our family stayed here with us for our Buff's graduation and there was plenty of room for everyone. We really loved being able to use the backyard patio, as we had a few meals and snacks outside with everyone. The beds were comfortable and Greg and Jewel were quick to respond to any questions and were able to accommodate our request for an earlier check in. Beautiful home and location and would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful Boulder Getaway

This was a wonderful property to stay at with my family over the holidays! The house is beautiful and spotless, with plenty of room to relax and all the comforts of home (and then some!). The kitchen was great and we were able to make a variety of holiday meals. The neighborhood is very quiet and convenient, and close to both downtown Boulder and wonderful hiking options. Would absolutely stay here again.

My girlfriends and I were looking for a relaxing quiet space to stay in between hikes, shopping, dining, etc. Jewel and Gregory provided the perfect space for this.

My husband and I spent a lovely 2 weeks in this peaceful, beautiful home to celebrate the holiday season with our son and his fiance, along with our granddaughter.

Graduation weekend

Beautiful property and great location. Several seating areas for everyone to spread out. Bathroom downstairs is tight but manageable for most. If not ,it is nice that another full bath is on the middle level. More steps then I realized from reading the listing which is good to know when having older relatives but the railings on the steps really helped. We really enjoyed our stay and your beautiful home.

Lovely stay!

House very clean and comfortable. Peaceful back yard. Neighborhood very quiet. Easy access to local shopping and restaurants. Quick drive into central Boulder. IMO not suitable for young children due to art pieces and live plants. Might be difficult for someone with mobility issues are there are several stairs and uneven stepping stones.
