Kit Carson Cottage in fall.
We had a weekend tent camping trip planned, but Mother Nature made us reconsider. Luckily, this little 'cottage' was available with short notice! We enjoyed our stay even though the weather made it difficult to enjoy outdoor activities. The Kit Carson Cottage was clean, warm and quiet. Communication with the host was great. He contacted us quickly when there was an issue. (It was related to hurricane force winds- no fault of the property owner.) Thank you!

Just what I wanted
When I was looking for a place to stay during my Colorado vacation, I wanted something quiet and outside the city. This place was perfect! The cabin was clean and tidy, and had everything we needed. The beds were comfy and the shower was hot. It was centrally located so we were able to make day trips to Boulder, Denver, Golden, Red Rocks, Estes Park, and Rocky Mountain National Park. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a quiet place to enjoy nature!!
