The host is very helpful and answered questions promptly. The cabin was amazing. It was very close to town and not too far from Denver but once on the property you would think you were in the country. It is well stocked with all you need. We loved the creek, the sitting areas outside, the family friendly layout inside.Highly recommend!

Host was very nice and we loved the property and would stay again. The advertisement said there was a gas grill but a new county ordinance prevented them from letting us use it. Also, the internet and landline were out and there was no cell phone reception which was a little I settling.Idaho Springs had a great little coffee shop and pizza place and a nice little downtown.

Excellent location. Plenty of space for four adults. The kitchen had plenty of pots and pans for cooking and baking. The hiking trail out the back was beautiful. Close to good ski options.

Arrived to a beautiful, clean and well-maintained Colorado mountain spot but we soon came to find out that on this property there are more do's than don'ts. Outdoor cameras made us feel uncomfortable as they were being observed while we were occupying the residence. Our family was excited to light up the chimenea near the serene, snow-covered flowing creek especially after reading all the reviews about how quaint and outdoorsy the fire was - a complete Colorado experience. But unfortunately, there was a tin cap locking out any wood from entering the opening up with a note that the county had a fire ban in place. After calling the Clear Creek county sheriffs office and finding out there was no fire ban, the owner told us it was the short-term rental (STR) arm of the county that disallowed outside visitors of rental property from lighting fires of any sort outdoors, including the gas grill. As pretty as the property was, as well-appointed and comfy the inside of the home was, there were too many distractions that took away from the experience you'd expect from renting a mountain cabin.
