Amazing property, my second stay in two years and I’ll be back again!

The pictures do not do this home justice. It is more beautiful in reality. Nestled on the edge of the creek, it is a magical spot. The house is cozy but we honestly stayed outside in the yard as much as we could. The water washes away all of your cares and there is even a hummingbird that will occasionally drop by to make sure you are settling in well. I recommend this property to anyone who loves to be beside water, in a lush green landscape. It is quiet, and while there are neighbors, the location of the yard makes it feel private and remote. The house is equipped with all you need in the kitchen and closets. We did need to use the fireplace at night because the temperature drops at night, even in July, so you may want to pick up some fire wood in Idaho Springs. If I return to the area I will definitely revisit the home.

This place was about as perfect as you can get! The cottage and surrounding area was amazing. And the hiking trails all around that area are great. Owners are very nice and great at communicating. Definitely staying here again!
Everything was as described. No complaints at all. Had a great time.

This was our first outing after the kids have left. We had so much fun at this little cottage. With cool nights and bright sunny days this rental provided the perfect solitude and opportunity for the two of us to reconnect as we sat outside listening to the wind bristle through the tall pines in concert with the humming falls of the creek.
