Great for family stay with sons wedding.

Great history and amazing antiques. Water ok to drink, but did have bad taste, the owners did have bottled water availible. Was clean except for dishes in dishwasher. If we had a smaller wedding would be a fun venue.

Comfortable and beautiful

The property has disc golf which was enjoyed by kids and adults alike and a bonus was visiting with the neighbor’s horses and being visited by elk several times.The home is beautiful with the western decor and the master was spacious. Plenty of beds to sleep our entire crew without needing the pullouts.

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.

Beautiful Fall Wedding

We rented this place for our October wedding and it was beautiful! Darcy was a wonderful host and even went beyond to help our vendors set up when we had a scheduling issue. The rooms were beautiful and comfortable. My Husband and I stayed there along with some of our family and our wedding party. We had more than enough space for everyone to be comfortable. This is the perfect place for a mid-sized wedding!

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!

Cool venue for weddings

We had a wedding with 80 people here and the venue itself gets 5 stars. Exactly as pictured, with lots of space indoors for family. If you are considering having an event here, ensure that you read the fine print as there is a fee per person for the event as well as for the porta potties. The tables, chairs, and tents that are included are a definite plus. A very cool property for weddings.

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.

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.

Great stay & great place for our small wedding!

We had a small wedding of about 50 people at this VRBO, and it was great! We also rented out the small church across the street for our ceremony, which worked out perfectly. At the house, they recently upgraded the porta-potty bathrooms, which was great! The house is beautiful, and all of the rooms feel secluded, which made it extra cozy for everyone who stayed here! We rented a tent for our reception, which worked out great on the property and the gas heater & fire pits provided a good amount of heat on the porch! We also had a food truck (High Society Pizza) which was the perfect solution for this type of backyard wedding. There's plenty of parking as well. Overall, we had a super special wedding weekend with our family and friends, and would totally recommend this property to others!

A great week in Golden

First time in the area so we rented a large home to accommodate the kids flying in (with 2 little grands as well) from different parts of the country. The house was a great size for us all. Had fun just sitting on the large porch playing cards all night. Coming equipped with the little things (like shampoo! - large bottles!) is great so you don't feel like you have to bring or buy everything. Great location - we went into Golden, Estes Park, some kids did gliding, skydiving, Coors tasting, golf and more. Was a great and relaxing week and we enjoyed everythign. Darcy provided lots of info as to activities and ideas as well. She even helped us when the neighbors dog visited :) She was very responsive to our text messages. Great experience all round.

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

Loved that there were enough spaces for people to get away for private moments if needed, but also large enough for gathering together. We loved our time together. Thanks for everything!
