About the host

Hosted by Robyn Haddock

Host profile image
My husband, Rob, is a native Coloradan who built our home next door over 30 years ago. He purchased this property in 2002 - just for the stunning mountain views and sunsets.

The property was listed on VRBO only a couple of years beginning in 2003. It was then used as a private guesthouse and later as Rob's office until his company outgrew it and relocated in 2017. In 2018, we completed a top-to-bottom remodel so that we could offer it to others as a vacation getaway and relaxing escape to the country.

Rob's three children and their families are also part owners, and we all share in our love for the home, its tranquility and breathtaking views.

As for me, I am a native Texan, moving to Colorado when Rob and I married. (While Texas will always be in my heart, I love Colorado's 300+ days of sunshine, the mountains/scenery and drier climate!)

I serve as the "property manager", as well as decorator, supply-stocker and back-up housekeeper. I thoroughly enjoyed furnishing the home with virtually everything you might need for your vacation. We sincerely want your stay to be unforgettable.
