We have absolutely NO complaints about our stay at this absolutely beautiful property (inside and out)! Our entire stay was quiet and peaceful. The cottage was spotless upon our arrival, and absolutely anything we needed was provided - and then some. We will definitely be visiting Castle Rock again next year, and when we do, we will literally plan our visit around availability at Ryan and Matt's place.

Great location, close to Mountains, Denver and the airport. Quiet neighborhood, close to shopping, restaurants. Hosts are THE best owners of any vacation property we've ever stayed! They thought of everything, down to disposable slippers near the shower....no joke. They should write the book on how to set up a vacation rental!

Simply amazing!

Pictures simply do not do this place justice. Clean & incredibly comfortable. All of the little extras (snacks, an abundance of bathroom products, VR, coffee bar, fire pit) made this such a wonderful stay. Excellent communication and care from hosts! We would absolutely come back if we are in the area again.

This was one of the most carefully and well-equipped VRBOs I've stayed at. I cooked a lot and virtually every spice, condiment and cooking utensil I could have wanted was there. The towels and amenities in the bathroom were high quality and plentiful. The views of the Colorado front range are stunning because the house is at the very edge of a large subdivision and sight lines are unimpeded. We were there for a week in the winter, so didn't get to enjoy the beautiful patio.The pull-out futon in the living area is really only suitable for a child, but the two bedrooms are beautiful with great linens and tasteful decor. I drew the short straw and didn't have a bedroom so I slept on the couch, which was surprisingly comfortable. I would definitely stay at Ryan and Matt's again if there were only two beds needed.

About the host

Hosted by Ryan

Host profile image
We have lived in Colorado for 21 years. We moved from the greater Denver area to Castle Rock to be slightly more remote, have incredible views, and have a walk out basement that has allowed us to share our beautiful location with visitors for the last 5 years. Even being more remote, we found it's a faster drive into downtown Denver than our last home that is fewer miles to downtown. We love lounging on the deck, seeing the various animal visitors and beautiful sunsets. We get up into the mountains to camp, hike, and ski whenever possible.

What makes this property unique

We are uniquely located between Denver and Colorado Springs, giving great access to all the sporting events, shows, and shops of the bigger cities, but having a quieter, more scenic place to relax and unwind.

Our basement apartment doesn't feel like you're in the basement. It is on the same level as the back yard. The open living room and work desk areas have full sized windows, and the kitchen area door is mostly glass, all looking out to the patio, the yard, grassy fields, mountains and sunsets. High ceilings also give a comfortable spacious feel in these areas.

The bedrooms have egress windows and don't have any views, but they can either let in lots of light or can be blocked out with the thick light blocking curtains. Only the smaller queen bedroom has a lower ceiling.
