Wonderful mountain retreat

Cozy home in the mountains. We went for a winter retreat and enjoyed the local hot springs and skiing. Close to Aspen. Great location. House was comfy and the host was super responsive and incredibly welcoming. I would not hesitate to stay again. ”

Fantastic family fun nestled in the canyon

We just had the most wonderful time in the Glenwood Canyon in this cozy and comfortable retreat. It was so special to be nesteld in the canyon. It was picturesque and quiet. Yet only a few minutes from bustling Glenwood Springs. We enjoyed a winter walk along the river and bird watching. The town of Glenwood had lots to offer as well: hot springs, adventure park, shopping and dining. We also commuted to Vail/Beaver creek, which was an easy drive and meant we got to travel through the canyon twice a day. It never got old. This place would also be wonderful in the warmer months with access to river rafting, fishing, hiking and more. The house itself was relaxing and warm. We enjoyed be cozy on the couch in front of the fire. The beds we super comfortable and plenty to choose from. It was nice to have some space in the front and backyard for the kids to play. The kitchen was user friendly and modern. The fridge had plenty of space. We are so grateful to Steve and his family for helping us make some magical memories.”

Wonderful old craftsman home with great character

Warm, cozy home with lots of character. Very comfortable with well equipped kitchen. We enjoyed the sauna and steam room. It was a great experience - thank you!”

Real west experience

I can't speak highly enough about this property or the host.The property is exactly what you would expect for a home built one hundred years ago. When we arrived we were pleasantly surprised with a nice bottle of Chianti and chocolates. The home was comfortably decorated for a relaxing week of hiking , skiing ,dining ,swimming and even a day trip to Aspen to take in the Colorado vistas. The kitchen is equipped with every possible amenity making dining in easy and relaxing. The steam shower and sauna were my kid's favorite amenities. A return trip in the future would be wonderful!”

Fantastic Location

My husband and I had a good experience at this homestay, and it was just the two of us. On the positive side, the location was fantastic—nestled in the heart of nature off the highway, offering serene views and a peaceful ambiance. The home has two nature walks along the river on both ends of the street and is a quick drive to Gleenwood. It's also a great location for day trips to Vail or Aspen. The host was friendly and accommodating, making check-in and check-out a breeze. While the home was tidy, comfortable, and had all the necessary amenities, the excessive clutter detracted from its potential charm. The primary suite in the basement stairs is a little tricky, but we are short, so it wasn't too bad once we got the hang of them. Overall, a comfortable home in a great location with a wonderful host, and it has the potential to be a cozy retreat with fewer home decor items. ”

Everything you Need...

We stayed here with two other couples over the 4th of July. The home was one of the few in this program that looks like it's lived in. The kitchen was fully stocked with things like coffee, spices, condiments, etc. and the laundry was as well. It even had washer dryer on both floors! We really enjoyed the steam shower and didn't have a chance to try out the sauna. It's in a fairly quiet location although not far off the highway for quick access to anywhere you want to go. The host was excellent, answered all of our questions promptly and made some great suggestions for the area. There is a covered front porch which we loved, early morning sun and coffee and then shaded in the afternoon for cocktails. There is also a second deck and large outdoor table that seats six. We would definitely stay there if our travels take us back to that part of the State.”

Perfect Spot to spend a long weekend!

Steve and his home was perfect! He gave me a whole list of ideas of attractions, restaurants, etc prior to arrival. He checked in with me on our check in date and was quick to respond throughout the weekend. He gave us a killer recommendation for a sledding hill! The home was just what we needed. Cozy, comfortable, everything we needed and more. There was untouched snow in the front and back yard for the kids to play in which was exactly why we came here. The steam shower felt great after a day in the snow. The home is right off the main road for easy access, but tucked just out of town, so nice and quiet. The beds were all very comfortable, the showers had instant hot water, and crisp cold water as well. They left a nice bottle of wine. Great hosts! Glenwood Springs with everything you need was 1 exit away. We loved the Gondola ride to the top of the mountain and the alpine coaster were great. We did the cavern tour as well. Endless things to do in this quiet little town. Can't wait to come back in the summer and go fly fishing!”
