While everything inside the home is very comfortable and great, I have to say the absolute best part is the morning coffee sits in the front porch. Great view with no morning sun and amazing temps. Would definitely stay here again when back in this area!

This house was great! We came for an overnight so we could get up early to Rock climb the Via Ferrata. The house was perfect for our family of four (mom, dad and two teenagers). House was super clean and cutely decorated. Location was great - we walked through the park to dinner downtown. Short walk. Would definitely recommend.

This property had everything we needed. It was very clean and just the perfect amt of comfort for our stay. The park was a huge bonus for us and our dog. There is a picnic table in the back with extra chairs and a BBQ grill, which we took advantage of the whole time. The location was perfect and the amenities and decor were just perfect. Thank you so much!

Easy check in. Very clean. Great backyard for our kiddo to run around in, and the park and river in close proximity was perfect for our family. We walked to town (about 10 minutes) for food and coffee. This is the perfect little spot in Canon City for families to stay!
