Great Walkable Location with Lovely Backyard and Hot tub.

Really loved our stay here. Parking and super walkable to downtown. Neighbors were quiet and it was a very clean and safe spot. Great amenities, pet friendly and a lovely backyard patio. Rental manager was super communicative and the owner of the property even said hi and let us know if we had questions he’d be happy to help! Would rent this spot again!

University community

It's great location if you like to be near the college community and all the things that come with it. Which we do. Many of the things we enjoy were a short walk or a couple minute car ride. The facility was well maintained and very comfortable spend time in.

Old bed and $2 pillows

The location is great, the yard area is beautiful, the space is well appointed, and cute... however: the mattress was old and extremely uncomfortable. The bed seemed more like a full than a queen. The "pillows" on the bed were AWFUL. They were thin and cheap. I won't stay here again because of the bed and pillows. I'm in FoCo several weeks out of the year, and this is by far the most uncomfortable place I have stayed there.

Great location

Spent 3 nights at this property. Location was great- walking distance to CSU and Old Town. Property was clean though lacking a few amenities that you might find at other VRBOs (no box of tissues, clock, dresser, bath mat, full length mirror). I was concerned when I saw ear plugs available on the bedside table- could hear neighbors chicken a little in the morning and train noises at night, but nothing terrible. Space was nice with outdoor patio area. We arrived at night and there was no patio lighting on so we were a bit in the dark getting into the property. That being said, this is a clean property in a great location. We have stayed at others in Fort Collins that we have liked more from an amenities/ upkeep perspective.

Cozy Getaway

This place was wonderful! It is within walking distance of the downtown shops & restaurants in a very quiet, well kept neighborhood. A cute, cozy space with plenty of smartly designed outside area for relaxation.The apartment was well kept, comfortable king bed and great bathroom space with large shower. With no stove just a hotplate & outside grill, the cooking options are limited but that is stated in the listing. The property host was very accommodating and easy to work with & responded quickly to our questions. All around it was a very nice space. We would definitely stay again!
