The Property

Facility was updated nicely. Plumbing issue on Sunday morning. Worked 3 hours with it and could not fix. By noon checked out. Felt no plumber would show on a Sunday afternoon. The property did not mention steps when researching. If recall accurately after paid message received that mentioned steps on the outside for access. When arrived there were 2 large sets of steps to climb. It was not conducive to elderly people or those with medical conditions. No issues outside of the plumbing and the 2 sets of long steps to climb.

A bad time

I personally had a number of issues which I feel other people might want to be warned about before staying here which I will innumerate below: 1. There are cockroaches in the kitchen 2. The screen door is broken and doesn’t close or latch properly and one of the windows doesn’t open so there isn’t really a way to properly ventilate the property to cool it in the mountain air at night which is the primary way of cooling. Also two of the ceiling fans are very unbalanced and they squeak constantly if they are left on so the nights were hot with just one very small square window open to vent the house. 3. Outside is a carpet of dog poop behind the property like it hasn’t been picked up in months. There’s trash on the ground, old rugs, a literal pickup bed full of trash bags our whole stay, broken appliances etc. Gross stuff. Literally nowhere to step to relieve my pup without stepping in poop. Also he was surrounded and nipped by the three German shepherds and lab who live on the property who bark constantly at you every time you descent the stairs or walk past the property. The dogs are very much not friendly to other dogs and not leashed or in voice control at all so other pet owners beware! 4. The bed sucks. As others have mentioned. 5. I’d think they could spring for more than 1 ply toilet paper, kleenex, and provide coffee filters (which we left) but no luck there either. I guess the good stuff: the communication with the host and the check in process were great.

Outstanding mountain location

This is a very comfortable studio with neighborhood access to some fantastic backcountry skiing and hiking. As part of my stay I did a 5 mile ski tour out the back door, up to over 11,800 ft with a return down St. Mary's Glacier. Next time I am looking for a place to stay with the family in this area, I will be looking for availability of this studio.

Great Location

The best part is definitely the location, and it's worthwhile to book just to be in such a beautiful, remote location, so close to St. Mary's Glacier. We thoroughly enjoyed the drive to and from the unit as well. As other reviewers mentioned, this third floor unit gets warm, even on cool nights. There are fans throughout but it is challenging to keep it cool. The kitchen was nicely stocked. The unit was very clean. It's a bit more dated looking vs. the photos on the listing.

Wonderful

Great location! The area is secluded and in/surrounded by the most beautiful mountains. The smell of the pine trees is divine and the stream nearby is the only sound that can be heard. The property is very nice and carries the essentials. Since it is located on the 3rd floor, it does get warm inside (even though temps get in the 50s) but with the fans help cool it down. Highly recommend and we will be back!

No power

The house was very nice and clean and the description was accurate. Unfortunately, we arrive to the Home at 8:30 in the evening and there was no power. Mind you it was 27° in the mountains and snowed approximately 8 inches, so very cold weather for May 31. I had a hard time getting a hold of the property owner but finally was able to and he informed me that there was to be a scheduled power outage for quite a few hours over the night, he did not make us aware of this stating he only found out a few hours before. We could’ve received a call or an email but no communication had happened. When we called the power went out

Fun Mountain Spot

Had a great time staying in this unit over the weekend. For those looking for more of a remote experience and to explore the Saint Mary's area this is a good choice. The unit is located 20mins from Idaho Springs and significantly higher in elevation. Be prepared for the weather to be totally different in the Saint Mary's location compared to Idaho Springs. In our case it was in the 40's and snowy at this property and near 20 degree warmer and sunny in Idaho Springs.
