From the moment we drove up, we knew that this was going to be a very nice place in a beautiful location and it was! Very clean, nicely appointed, just offered a fun and cozy vibe. Communication was always quick and very helpful - we loved it and would definitely recommend the place and the town. Lived up to its name; an absolute gem!

This was truly a gem! Our family stayed 3 nights and could not be happier. The house was clean, comfortable, and roomy. The kitchen is fully stocked, the beds are comfortable and the view from the back y cannot be beat. We loved watching the sunset and stars from there. This is a must stay if you can snag it!

We enjoyed the quiet location with beautiful views of the mountains. The house was clean and had everything we needed. The beautiful decor made us feel comfortable and the natural cleaning products and bathroom equipment was a plus. Was very happy with the policy allowing us to bring our dog.

Peaceful house, great location and well stocked place. Enough room to place a large dog kennel next to the kitchen table.Neighborhood is really quiet which is exactly what we needed. The crestone book was an interesting read and recommended perusing. Only suggestion is to add a deck of cards, uno, skipbo like games to the collection of games.

Awesome place. If possible would give them a 7 star rating. Modern luxurious interior with everything you need and more. Great communication and various small touches like having ice ready and bottled water in the fridge. Highly recommended!

Have you ever wanted to check in to a rental and be greeted with fresh flowers and have every possible thing you could ever need, including a bundt pan!?! Then this is the place for you!You can tell the owners put a lot of thought and attention into the design and details for this cabin. Everything feels new and high-end, including fancy soaps, coffee, and shampoo! I normally feel the need to wipe down and disinfect most rentals, but not this one because it was so clean. Even the dishes were spotless. Bonuses:- Filtered water was delicious to drink- Lots of dishes so you aren’t having to wash the same 6 plates over and over- Beautiful, live plants in the cabin- Portable speaker- Electric fireplace that can put out heat- Lots of games and puzzles- New, great-working appliances- Recycle and compostThis cabin truly has everything you could possibly want, and I would hesitate to stay here again! Hoping to in the future!

This house has the best stocked kitchen of any short-term we've stayed in. The home is newly remodeled, spacious and very clean. The beds were firm and comfortable. There were ample towels and blankets throughout the home. There was a side yard where we could let our dogs run around, and that was great. It's a very quiet location with deer around, and million dollar views of the mountains. Each room had its own thermostat, so you can dial in the temperature. The smart tv allowed us to watch a couple of movies. The owners left some eggs and fantastic coffee beans for our use. Just a wonderful stay. We will rent this house again next year.
