About this property

~ Central Boulder Gem - Walk to CU/Folsom - 20 acre park out the back gate ~

Welcome to GreenGate—your sunny Boulder retreat with mid-century charm and modern comfort. Tucked on a quiet lot and powered by the sun, our home is full of character, soul, and spaces to kick back, connect, and recharge.

*Living Room
The heart of the house! Sink into the big, comfy sectional for movie marathons, game nights, or lazy afternoons. You’ve got fast Wi-Fi, YouTube TV, PBS, and Prime Video—plus plenty of light pouring in through oversized windows.

*Dining + Patio Vibes
Our dining room is a bright, happy space for sharing meals, playing cards, or sipping coffee in the morning light. Slide open the doors to the screened-in patio—your private nook for unwinding with a book, spotting squirrels, or stargazing in gravity chairs.

*Bedrooms
Each of the three bedrooms has its own personality and perfect sleep setup.
The primary suite has a Cal King bed, ensuite bathroom, and a cozy loft office that leads to a private deck (hello, mountain air!).
The purple bedroom features a queen bed and sweet, calming vibes.
The third bedroom has a comfy full-size bed and is just right for solo travelers or younger guests.
All rooms come with their own AC units for cool summer nights and uninterrupted Zzzs.

*Kitchen & Baths
Love to cook? You’ll find a fully updated kitchen with modern appliances and everything you need to whip up a meal or make your morning brew.
Both bathrooms are stylish and fresh, with thoughtful updates and spa-like touches.

*Backyard & Park Access
Step into the garden and feel the stress melt away. Glide on the swing, listen to the birds, or follow the squirrels’ antics. Out the back gate? A 20-acre park playground, splash pad, and Olympic-size pool are waiting for you—just bring your sense of adventure.

*A Personal Touch
GreenGate is our personal home, lovingly lived in and full of thoughtful details. We ask that you treat it with the same care you would your own—enjoy it fully, respectfully, and joyfully.

About the host

Hosted by Eric Kloor

Host profile image
That's us - getting married in our backyard in 2014! Shanti's a teacher, Eric's an entrepreneur, and we're intrepid travelers. We've used VRBO and other rental and house exchange websites for years. This is our home, so we hope you'll treat it with great respect.

Why they chose this property

Boulder is a remarkable town in every manner, and being in the middle of town with a country-like feel to the backyard is pure delight.

What makes this property unique

Our guests say it best:

Truly great house.
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed staying at this lovely home. It’s in a great location (central to just about everything), it is immaculate with everything one could want from a vacation rental. It is very well stocked and comfortable. It has a great solar radiant heating system throughout that keeps the house at a perfect temperature 24/7. Eric and Shanti were very helpful and super easy to deal with. We were there looking at CU Boulder for our daughter. If she ends up going there, we will definitely try and stay at this house again when we visit.

This house is super comfy and clean. Everything is how it should be to make a guest feel at home. We also loved how convenient the location was, with direct access to the highway, neighboring creek trial, and proximity to downtown. A perfect choice.
