Plenty of room for the whole family to stay. We had a nice weekend celebrating my son’s engagement. There was enough room for everyone that flew in. We were close to the airport, our son’s place, and the party location.

Honest Review

The house is exactly as pictured, plenty of space and lots of big bedrooms! We really enjoyed the home, we had 14 people for a BBQ Graduation celebration! My ONLY complaint is that the kitchen is SORELY under equipped. There were very few things needed to cook and serve 14 people, and the house sleeps that many so it’s expected the guests will cook. Otherwise the place is awesome!

Great Stay for a larger group plus pets and a baby

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great 4-night stay. We had 2 dogs and a baby traveling with 9 adults. There was always plenty of room for everyone. The backyard was great for enjoying sunny afternoons and fenced in for letting our dogs play. There is a flat walking path with beautiful views just down the road if hiking a mountain is not your speed. It was an easy 30 minute drive to Mile High Stadium for tailgating ahead of the Broncos game. We had a great stay!

Mockingbird Review

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall the stay was enjoyable even in a winter storm. The company made the booking process really quick and easy. Communication was great. Upon arrival the house was very spacious for my 8 guests and myself. A beautiful and welcoming aesthetic. The kitchen and dining room were openly connected which provided smooth transitions for cooking/ eating. There were some maintenance concerns however I reached out to a representative and they sent someone out to fix some of the issues. The cleaning was subpar (noticeable dust, stains around toilets, etc.) also more bath towels and wash cloths need to be provided. I would definitely return to this property as it wasn’t far from Downtown Denver and in a nice neighborhood with plenty of local shops nearby! Consider this property when looking for a place to stay in Colorado.

A Disappointing Experience with Unfulfilled Promises

Rating Details: The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I recently stayed at a vacation rental that sadly did not live up to my expectations. This review is not one I take pleasure in writing, but I believe it's important to share my experience for the benefit of others considering this property.Upon arrival, I noticed that the air conditioning wasn't functioning properly. Given the high summer temperatures, this was a considerable inconvenience. I immediately contacted the property manager, hoping for a swift resolution. However, the response and action taken were far from satisfactory.Despite the urgency of the matter, the property manager didn't show any sign of immediate action. They seemed content to let the issue go until day three of our stay, which was unacceptable given the sweltering heat. It was only after I exerted significant pressure that they finally took action.To compensate for this major discomfort, the manager promised a reimbursement. I reluctantly agreed, hoping that at least I would be compensated for the inconvenience. However, this promise turned out to be empty. Despite multiple attempts to communicate with them and resolve this matter, my messages have been ignored.This experience has left a sour taste in my mouth. A vacation rental stay should be a relaxing and enjoyable experience, but ours was marred by a lack of functional amenities (the theatre room is in the garage with no cooling) and poor customer service. The indifferent attitude of the property manager coupled with the failure to live up to their promise of reimbursement only added to our frustration.While I understand that technical issues can arise in any property, the way they are handled makes all the difference. Unfortunately, in this case, the property management's response was inadequate and unprofessional. This is not an experience I would wish on any traveler, and as such, I cannot in good conscience recommend this vacation rental.

As First timers not staying in a hotel, but trying out Vrbo instead. I believe we might continue to use vrbo from our experience while staying here. Family was happy with space and at home feeling they are ready to plan another trip. Highly recommend staying here. Host responded to questions quickly! Overall awesome stay!

Some potential, but too many issues

We had high hopes, but unfortunately, this stay fell short. We reached out to the host hoping they’d make things right after finding that several advertised amenities weren’t usable—but the response was basically that we should’ve contacted them during our stay for repairs. While that might work for some, we were on vacation—not looking to manage maintenance issues.The BBQ didn’t work, the fire pit was unusable, the couch’s recliner was broken and sunk in, and the kitchen was stocked with worn-out cookware and hardly any utensils. There were only 2 hand towels in the kitchen, no potholders (I almost burned myself), and a blender with no lid. The dishwasher was broken and barely worked. The kitchen sink wouldn’t stop running. We found dried contact lenses on the upstairs bed—gross.The downstairs felt like a fire hazard with blocked windows, the side gate didn’t lock, and the back door was hard to shut. Oh, and the toilet paper? One-ply. I don’t know about you, but I don’t like wiping with sandpaper.Parking was super limited—tight driveway, and the street was always packed. The house had no “extras,” just basic shelter. Honestly, for the price, my home offers more. If you just need a place to sleep and don’t care about comfort or amenities, this could work. Otherwise, I’d look elsewhere.We took photos, but it won't allow me to upload.
