We stayed over Christmas and absolutely loved this place. They had a Christmas tree, so first time our family was gone over Christmas it felt like a home away from home. Owners were great with communication, everything was easy, we are definitely coming back.

I wish I could say that we got to stay. But the wind storm knocked out power in the area and our host reached out to us the morning we were supposed to leave to say she had to cancel. She worked with me on getting a refund and we were able to find another place. I can’t wait to visit this place in the future!!!

From the Great Lakes to the Continental Divide

Clean, well appointed property, Quiet. A mother Moose and calf wandered by as we stood on the deck. We took a hike from the house into the Roosevelt National Forest. We fished and caught a couple of nice trout in Snowline Lake.

Gilpin County retreat

House and hot tub were great. Kiffany was very responsive with check in communication and after check out. I hope they liked the way we left the house and that we were good guests.We did not let them know about the dishwasher. probably have already replaced the filter and it is fine. We just decided to hand wash. That was our choice. I would stay there again if in the area.

Fun Spring Break stay

We loved staying at the cabin, especially enjoyed the hot tub after skiing. The huge windows in the living room were fun to watch the stars and falling snow. Pretty amazing to watch a large moose grazing from the hot tub.

Best place to stay while scoping out areas to move.

This place was paradise after a 2 day drive. It was a great place to come back to after a long day of scoping out areas we are considering moving to. It had everything we needed, and more. The peace and quiet was an added bonus. Very clean, plenty of space, comfortable temperature, all the necessary amenities!

Peaceful Mountain Break

This wonderful house is tucked away in a quiet neighborhood down a path from mountain trails and easy drives to National Forest highlights. At the home, we enjoyed the stars from the deck and the comforts inside. Mountain towns nearby gave us plenty of dining options. The hosts were great with quick responses and helpful information. We'd love to go back!

Perfect for Outdoor Lovers

If you are an outdoor enthusiast and would love the chance to see wildlife and enjoy some mountainside solitude, this is the place for you!! There is a great hot tub and the additional downstairs area is great for kids space vs. adult space. We only stayed for two nights but my gang was thrilled to see a young moose right outside the window. The kitchen was stocked with plenty of basics and cookware. The host is a great communicator and though there were a couple of issues, they were dealt with promptly and courteously.

Peaceful and relaxing and there really are moose.

The house is lovely with lots of big windows that let in the natural light. The community is a bit out of the way, but it's very quiet and the hiking trails were a nice way to start our mornings. The new hot tub was a nice for relaxing at the end of a busy day. We saw several moose, including a mama and two babies in the lake as we were coming back to the house. Also had two young males trot through the property as we were enjoying the hot tub. Communications were easy and questions were answered very quickly.

Escape in the woods

We had an amazing time in this cozy cabin. It was comfortable and had everything we needed to cook meals. I loved the location and fishing in the trout pond. Our college daughter and 6 year old daughter shared a room. Our high schooler and 7 year old sons bunked up. It was a perfect fit and it was large enough to escape each other by utilizing the extra downstairs living room. My only criticism would be the beds and pillows. They weren’t the most comfortable but it did the job. Thanks for sharing your home! We would 100% book again!

Roomy cabin in the woods

The house was roomy, and beds were comfy. We did have some issues with the washer not working, but the property manager was very responsive to the issue. Also, we had to buy toilet paper, paper towels, laundry detergent, and I had to ask the property manager for trash bags and dishwasher detergent, after we discovered there was none. The owner explained that they think the last people to stay took many things from the house. It was frustrating that the house was not well stocked, but I was thankful that the property manager was responsive and apologetic. We loved the location and the hot tub was great too!

Displeased and disappointed

A Beautiful mountain view, tranquil atmosphere and lovely family vacation RUINED! Falsely advertised that the home is “fully stocked” I had to take a 30 minute drive to town to purchase items like toilet paper and trash bags. After I checked out the host shamefully accused me, my 16 and 12 year old daughters of doing drugs because of bloody tissues in the trash and a “white powder substance” that was found in a drawer. Floor to ceiling windows with no curtains or blinds. It’s cooler outdoors in 85 degree weather than inside the house. No duvets on any of the blankets. Skin and hair from other people are on YOUR bedspread. Ummmm … Of course there will be trash in the bins after a one week stay with a family. Of course we left some items in the sink; the dishwasher was full and we ran the cycle to be helpful. The grill was dirty and not usable. Cabinets of “stocked supplies” are unorganized and full of outdated items. Green SLUDGE in the hot tub. ZERO lights outdoors to feel safe and keep animals away. HOT HOUSE. “A+” for the scenery. “F” for guest bedrooms, stocked supplies, being blamed for garbage that was left from the stay before, working functions of the home and the rudest host. I actually left 1 full day early (we didn’t feel safe or comfortable) and she still had the gumption to charge me extra for cleaning and not refund the extra day. This VRBO is a joke.
