It was in a great location, 1-2 blocks to Old down town Arvada and 1-2 blocks from a beautiful trail along a creek. The home had all that we needed, it was clean and cozy.
I stayed here with family this weekend. The space is clean with great attention to detail. The host was kind and very quick to reply when needed. Would love to stay again!
Plenty of amenities in and around the house, everything was spotless, hot tub was great.We had some odd people knock on the door within the first 12 hours but we brushed it off as oddities and the rest of the week long trip was great.
This was my first time in Arvada and I'm glad that I chose to visit the town. The area was great and we all loved the house! It was really nice with lots of space.
I was in town for work. The house was in perfect location. Fitted out with everything you need to cook. Close to Old town easy to walk great to restaurants and breweries. The host was great the check in and check out process was super easy.
Great backyard, cozy set up & good customer service from the hosts
We stayed here while hiking through Colorado. This was our first stay & our favorite out of our 9 days in Colorado & 4 stays. The hosts were prompt at getting us the check in information, with questions & even provided complimentary snacks for our stay. 10/10 would recommend & would stay here again.
We came out for a few days to visit our kids
The house had everything we needed. A beautiful place , very clean. Plenty of room
The hosts were very courteous and sent useful info. They responded quickly to any needs
We would definitely stay here again
My friends and I stayed here while we were in town for a concert. The location was perfect for easy walking access to places to eat and shops. The home was clean and slept four adults comfortably. Plus dog friendly so out furry friends could stay with us! We will be back.
Excellent house, perfect location, Julie was fantastic!
The house was so cute and perfect for our family stay. It was clean and well kept, the location was ideal and the neighborhood was cute, quiet & convenient. Julie was communicative and responsive to our needs and questions. We would absolutely stay here again!
Perfect location for all the things we wanted to do in the larger Denver area. Easy driving distance to many local attractions and then quick walk to Olde Town in the evenings when we didn't want to cook. Beautiful yard outside space was perfect for traveling with our pup. Thank you!
We had a very nice time, property hosts were great and very responsive. It was a 2 minute walk to Olde Town Arvada shops, restaurants, and bars. The house was very comfortable and they had nice "extra" amenities. We really enjoyed the fire table and seating area in the back as well as the spa outside!
We'd highly recommend this property!
Loved our stay at this extremely clean, updated home. The backyard and hot tub are awesome, too. It was nice to be able to walk to local restaurants and shops, and at the same time the neighborhood was quiet and felt safe during our visit. We also hiked at Rocky Mountain National Park and saw Garden of the Gods, which were each about a 90-minute drive from the house. Would stay here again!
