Cozy and comfortable
Our kids didn't want to leave! The house felt like going home to visit family. Each tween got their own room and large bed and the beds were very comfortable. Great layout for family time. Plus, the neighborhood cat was sweet as can be, and entertained the kids for hours.

Very pleased with this VRBO!
We found the house to be very nice and just as described from the pictures inside and out! The furnishings and beds were very comfortable and the kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked with dishes, towels, etc. The house was immaculate and the lawn very well cared for. If we were to note anything negative it would be that the ceiling fans in the living room and dining room were not functional. That was a little disappointing due to the unexpected warmer temps that Rifle was having during our stay. Other than that, it was a great place to stay and much better than staying in a hotel.

Perfect place for family and friends to catch up
We had an absolutely fantastic time staying at this rental. My brother has lived in Rifle for years and we have never been able to find a good housing solution for our frequent trips into the mountains. The hotels are full of teenagers partying and the other rentals are too far away. This place fit the bill for us! I have 3 kids with 2 under 3 so the backyard playground was AMAZING! The beds we’re comfortable and there was plenty of space for our party of 6. There were no complicated labor intensive directions like other rentals and it was very accessible. We will definitely be staying here again!
