Friends vacay

The place was great! We all agreed that we would stay again if the occasion arises. I had messaged the property about rafting and fishing, but never heard back from them. They did have recommendations in the book. I don’t know how far in advanced you need to book. The only other thing that was a little weird was that there were linens left in the dryer, and they weren’t dry.

The place was like something out of a Thomas Kinkade picture, surrounded by trees with a gorgeous creek in the back soothing any worries with its sound (picture provided). Inside was nicely decorated with plenty of entertainment for the stormy times. Kitchen has ample cooking utensils and plateware for a family of 6. The beds were comfy and warm offering very restful sleep. The suprises inside were the cooking ingredients already stocked in the pantry, bathroom/laundry room necessities, and the 3 fishing poles (with licenses) for some fun times out on the lakes. I only had to purchase the lures, weights, and connections from the local shops which I have left for the next visitor adhering to the place's motto of "Take what you need, leave what you don't". We even had several humming bird visits you could see right outside the dinning room. Great stay, would visit again!

Beautiful cabin!

We’ve always wanted to stay close to a running stream that we could sit by and enjoy the beautiful sound and sights of Colorado….this is the place! Our 3 year old grandson learned how to fish at the nearby lake surrounded by mountains and we even saw a moose bathing in the lake! We will definitely be bringing our family here again!

Wonderful stay!

We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful location. The house was great and included everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well-supplied so that we could cook our meals. Tom was very responsive to any questions or needs that we had during out stay. We would definitely consider staying here again.

Excellent snowy getaway

We could not have been more happy with the cabin if we had built it ourselves. The layout was perfect, and they had everything you could want including games, adult coloring books and a cozy stove. It snowed a foot over the weekend, but with the gorgeous views it was perfect.

A perfect getaway ❤️ 🌲⛄️⛰️

This really was an unbelievable retreat. Waking up with the Forest in the backyard was breathtaking. It was a quick drive from Boulder but really felt like we were home away from home. I had never stayed at a VRBO that was fully stocked like this one…I didn’t need to bring 1/2 of the supplies I had packed with me it was unbelievable. It was a perfect retreat to celebrate my daughters 12th birthday.

Very Comfortable Stay

This place was a great way to escape for a few days. Everything was very clean and well stocked. The owner has truly thought of just about everything to make people feel at home and in the best of care. It is by a main road and near a few houses. However, inside, you can hear nothing. So quiet! And when you go out on the back deck or to the fire pit near the creek, it feels very secluded, with only the sound of the running water. We walked to the trailhead for St. Mary's Glacier (only 0.4 miles from the cabin) and were able to enjoy the nature, seeing a fox and a weasel on our hikes. Overall, this was a lovely stay and I would highly recommend to others.

Unbelievable Interactions

I rented this property as "New traditions" after a divorce of 23 years married, 25 together. I had to send the property manager, Tom Meyers a message explaining we had an emergency and had to leave early and abruptly. I had sheepishly asked for a refund for the time missed, I understood that was not something I could expect. I shared our concerns: We found mold, old and expired food in the refrigerator and two bedrooms had trash on the floor. I had a used tissue in my room. The property was dusty, and the upstairs shower door did not close all the way. The wind was fierce making the doors howl. It had snowed and blew up six-foot-high drifts. We had an appointment to go tubing at noon the following day and had to shovel our way out. I then explained in the communication, that I would just create a review. His response, "Funny. I was just about to refund you. I will forward VRBO all contact with you." I felt like I was being punished and shamed by his thoughts that I was blackmailing him! His response: "Funny, if you had that dignity and honesty, my "bad behavior" wouldn't be of concern and consequence. I'll be happy to share with them." I had never had an experience like this in any professional setting. I contacted VRBO to explain my situation and inquire what the policies and procedures were at this point. Diana explained that there was NOTHING that could be done as VRBO only encourages the owners to do the right things. Many, many phone interactions later, I am still at the mercy of the owner. With no support, I am stuck trying to resolve with the very person who slapped my hands and would not work with me resolving the issues to make it a success. Once I was accused of blackmailing, customer service acknowledged that I did not do that and would support my review by not deleting it! Wow! I am amazed at the procedures I am being informed of. I have not done anything to begin this hardship. If you review the cases and correspondence, you will understand I have done nothing to cause this. The amount of time and effort your company has spent pushing me into a corner ignoring and manipulating this entire issue is unconscionable! When I spend the money I had, I expect reasonable service and support. I was positioned to be embarrassed and humiliated because I referred to my tools in a review of my experience. I wish that someone would have warned me of the immaturity and lack of professionalism that I expect.

Very comfortable beds and love how dark the rooms can be. Quiet & tidy property with a pleasant stream nearby that allows you to feel you’re away from the everyday rush. This property had pleasant and quality amenities if needed (IE- Games, books, Wi-Fi, Netflix, Dish Network along with well-stocked kitchen spices and refrigerator, basic toiletries if needed, washer and dryer.) We so appreciated the ability to have some quality family time in this space. Definitely promotes the change of attitude with the change of altitude!

Amazing property and awesome host. Tom was always in communication when needed. Due to the bears and the season he came by to grab our garbage when we needed. We had car issues and placed an order thru Amazon and they delivered it to the local post office. He Otto pick it up for us. We were able to check in early when we arrived. It was everything the listing states and then some!!! We were blessed with a moose outside the window, and mule deer. We will be back again

This place is amazing! It's very quiet and private! Lovely grounds to explore! Very clean. Probably the best amenities I've seen in a VRBO! Short drive on up the hill for a beautiful lake! It's kinda out there a ways but a perfect home base to explore so many beautiful areas! John was very kind! We had an early flight into Denver and he allowed us to check in earlier in the day! You won't be disappointed! Great outdoor space too! 10,000 ft up did it make hard for this 58 yr old to climb the steps but it was worth it!

About the host

Hosted by Tom Meyers

Host profile image
We first bought our own property in St Mary's in 2009 and quickly fell in love with the area. We purchased our current home in 2013 and also bought the lot next door, on which the previous house had burned down in 2006. My original plan was to build a carriage house, but that plan has morphed into a beautiful 3 bed 2 bath home for your St. Mary's getaway!

Why they chose this property

Newest and nicest rental in St Mary's! Truly a high end rental with all the fine finishes. All three bedrooms are on the main floor, giving you a wide open great room with vaulted ceilings on the upper level. Enjoy sitting on the deck and listing to the creek.
Convenient location right off of Fall River Road and close to the glacier hike. Walk down the road to do an ATV tour!

What makes this property unique

Roomy, brand new build with high end finishes. Close to all your outdoor activities.
