Not what we expected but it was ok

I'll start by saying i should have been more aware of the location. We just didn't expect it to be twelve miles from Black Hawk, the last few miles on gravel. That's great if that's what you're looking for. But the pictures don't show the busy highway 150 yards from the patio. There were nonstop trucks hauling up and down the steep hill, you can imagine the noise. They also don't show the neighbor across the way with the bright outdoor lights on 24x7, no star watching. However, the property is exceptionally clean. It is also very modern. The owners have done a great job making it comfortable. It's well equipped, has a nice shower, decent kitchen and great living space. Be aware, it is a downstairs unit and the unit above is also a rental. You hear every footstep. We were awakened at 4 AM by what sounded like someone packing and cleaning up to leave. Stomping feet, slamming drawers, suitcase rolling across the floor. The next people had dogs so we heard all of the toenails clicking across the floor and barking. For some of reason the bed is, no exaggeration, 3.5 feet off of the floor. My 5' 4" wife couldn't get into it and had to slide out of it to the floor. Also, the mattress is VERY hard. We hated it. I know it sounds like it was all bad but it wasn't. Just be prepared to drive a lot if you go places. Ignore the neighbor and the noise. The sauna is awesome, the unit is very nice and clean and the yard is wel maintained and had lots of flowers and some nature areas.

Great property, great location

A quick drive to Eldora Ski resort. Loved the property as it was spacious enough for the two of us. Loved the sauna as well. Would be fun to visit in the summer too!

Cozy & Tranquil

I had a great time. The place is cozy and in great shape. The property is tranquil and in short distance to so many hiking opportunities. My dog had a blast playing and hiking around the area. Lane and Maren are great hosts. The check-in and out processes was simple. They made our stay wonderful.

Cozy, Clean, and Secluded

We loved staying here! My partner and our 6 month old baby stayed here and absolutely loved it. As soon as we arrived to the property there was a duck family in the creek, and then we had frequent mom and baby moose visits, saw many chipmunks, just an abundance of views. The property is deep in the mountains; once off the main road it took 40 minutes to get to the property. It would be 70 degrees in town then 48 degrees at the property, and it just felt really nice. Also, the property was very clean and obviously well kept. Definitely would stay here again!!

Clean secluded place with nice amenities.

We had regular moose visitors. Beautiful drives to fantastic hiking and Boulder. Our favorite was right nearby at Golden Gate Canyon State Park.
