Hot Springs, White Water, and Downtown! You’ve got it all!

My friends and I spent a day in Golden tubing and enjoying the Coors brewery! We walked to downtown Idaho Springs and enjoyed the restaurants, bars, and great people! We spent a morning at the hot springs and an evening in black hawk losing all our money, but making unforgettable memories! Couldn’t recommend this place more highly as a central hub for all things fun!

Great home and fantastic backyard

The home was just as described and well appointed. The backyard was beautiful with plenty of seating, fire pit and BBQ grill. The owner was very responsive. The mattresses and pillows were some of the best I have experienced at a VRBO rental.

Very spacious, all the amenities and walkable

This house was very large and spacious. The primary bedroom was extremely large and the others were very comfortable. The kitchen and bathrooms were fully stocked with everything you could need and more. We loved being able to walk to the cute downtown with many shops and restaurants. Our sons also enjoyed walking to Clear Creek to fish. The walkway along Clear Creek is lovely and another way to get into town.

Great house in historic mountain town

The house was very unique and stocked with everything we might possibly need and then some. The house, and the town of Idaho Springs, are very conveniently located, so it’s a breeze to get in and out whether headed to Denver or the Ski slopes to the west. The house had plenty of space for our group of six and we enjoyed the private backyard area each evening.

Great property, great location

This property is great! My group of 5 adults spends a few days skiing at Loveland every year. We enjoy staying in Idaho Springs for the convenience to the ski area and the amenities in town. Jonathan’s property has all the comforts of home. Plenty of room for several people to sleep, eat and just sit around and relax. Easy access to town and getting on I-70 to hit the mountains. Jonathan is quick to respond to any questions or concerns you may have. We will definitely come back!

Idaho springs stay

The backyard and picnic table helped get the family together for dinners and card games outside. We loved the space inside. This home was a very comfortable stay for us. Location was perfect for our white water rafting trip, st marys glacier hike, & a trip into denver.

Cozy, very welcoming mountain home

We enjoyed the convenient location, size, amenities, warmth, comfort, welcoming feeling of the home. The host was thoughtful, compassionate, well-spoken, generous and kind. It snowed quite a bit and he went out of his way to shovel sidewalks and parking spots for three cars. He created a warm, memorable experience for everyone once we walked through the door. He had great games and movies. FUN, FUN, FUN!

Our stay was amazing from start to finish. The house is clean, comfortable and well stocked. It felt like a home away from home. The check in was easy and exactly as described. There is plenty of space to spread out and relax. Every detail was well thought out. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything to cook just like we were home.

This was a great place to stay for my friends and I for a ski vacation. Only about 45 minutes away from some of the best ski resorts. The place itself and a spacious living room and everything we needed for 7 people. Really cool backyard and a nice tv! Highly recommend.
