• WOW! Gorgeous property and with incredible view!!

  5/5

  Fabulous property with amazing lofted view of valley. Truly stunning vista for a mountain vacation with close proximity to Idaho Springs and Evergreen... and Denver if your prefer shopping. Well stocked property. Nice deck areas (main and lower level). Nice private outdoor hot tub. Very spacious! Foosball and pin pong table were a hit as well. Spacious garage for 2 cars and a large driveway.

  Highly recommend hiking to St. Mary's Glacier and Rafting the Clear Creek! Tommyknockers brewpub also a hit downtown Idaho Springs!

• Great Location!

  4/5

  This was a beautiful place for the family to have a peaceful retreat! We enjoyed our stay! We experienced a couple of issues, but overall it was good! It smelled awful in the kitchen upon arrival. We figured out that it was the garbage disposal which had food left in it. The utensils were not clean. Many had food particle stains and was not properly cleaned, so we went to buy plastic utensils. It wouldn't hurt to update some of the pots and pans, hand towels and face towels. The bath towels were in great condition. Several of the burners on the stove did not come on at all (back ones). The ones in the front would not work consistently. We had to turn them off and on several times to get the burners on, which caused it to smell of gas pretty badly. This is not normal for a gas stove. The gas grill was really dirty, even after we cleaned it we were unable to use it. It still caught fire at the bottom so we had to take the food off, shut off the propane and put the fire out. Many of the lights and light bulbs on the property (front, back and inside) were not working and need to be replaced, the most concerning lights that were not working were the ones where the jacuzzi was located. We got in the jacuzzi just before dark and was not able to see very well into the nearby thicket. There was gravel in the jacuzzi bottom. It was hard to relaxing while trying to keep a sharp eye out for yogi the bear. We emailed management about the lights. The smoke alarm was beeping all night long which was a bit annoying. Our first morning the coffee maker had old coffee in the filter, and was not working, so we were not able to drink the much needed caffeine. The front door was jamming and was difficult to open. We called the management team. The response to the coffee issue and smoke alarm was great and in the early afternoon they brought a new coffee maker, replaced the battery for the smoke alarm and left some much appreciated treats! This is a beautiful house in a perfect location with spectacular views! Maintenance is key to keeping it this way. My recommendation is that if the renters are going to be responsible for cleaning and putting up the dishes, etc., in addition to the cleaning fee charged. There needs to be an inspection, before the next party arrives to make sure all these things have been properly cleaned and taken care of and also make sure everything noticeable is working properly.
