Great stay
We stayed in the 2 bedroom 2 bath cottage. It was spacious and beds were comfortable. Location was perfect for quick access to town and to RMNP. There is some road noise during the day and early evening but not noticeable at night. It wasn’t an issue for us. There were only 2 pans available for cooking, a large pan and a skillet. Owner communicated in advance with check in instructions, location of room, parking and how to contact him for any questions or concerns we may have. We enjoyed our stay.

Clean. Beautiful area with the river right behind the property. Overall, for the price range it was very nice. There were just a few things I didn't really like or would have been nice to have known. Only 3 hangers for 2 bedrooms. 2 spoons. the remote to the tv didn't work. heating was really hard to control temperature. There were floor units with dials but no numbers or thermostat to set temperature so it was hit or miss. And there was a door right next to one bed that went to adjoining place that only had a tiny sliding lock set into the trim to separate the two area which my mom didn't like at all, so we had to set a chair between bed and door so that it couldn't open. Overall, a great place to stay if you know what you are getting. Just a few things could be changed at very low cost to owner to make it a lot better.
