About this property

Tucan Guest Cottage, Rocky Mountain Getaway, 30 Min to Denver

This property is a cute little cottage with style and comfort. It has been
designed for fun and enjoyment with a little flair from the
owner's love of nature and African animals.

It feels like you are viewing the valley and mountaintops from the treetops. Its cozy for your comfort but with a BIG feel......we hope you enjoy staying there as much as we had designing it.

See you soon. Please note availability is only June 1st through October 31. Come relax in the cool summer mountains.

Wonderful getaway!

We have not stayed at a lot of VRBOs but this was by far the best! The location with the view and atmosphere was extraordinary but coupled with the layout and cleanliness of the cottage made our stay even more enjoyable. Judith was very helpful before our arrival and a pleasure to visit with while we there. We definitely look at returning!
