About this property

This elegant historic house is steps away from Old Town Fort Collins and the beautiful Colorado State University campus. Best location in town for proximity to CSU and Old Town! Old Town is a charmingly preserved downtown area that includes over 80 restaurants. The picturesque area was the inspiration behind Disneyland's "Main Street USA." Fort Collins prides itself on the plethora of restaurants and outdoor activities, a vibrant downtown and of course, our beer. Fort Collins is always full of things to do, no matter the season.

The property is meticulously maintained, fully remodeled in 2017 and is furnished with everything you need from napkins to soap to dishes and everything in between!

The house sleeps 4 in two Queen beds. There is a lovely gourmet kitchen, a washer/dryer and a front porch to watch the passer-bys and enjoy the vibrancy of Old Town. Also included is a back deck overlooking the garden for all your entertainment needs:))

There are two separate units in this historic house. There may be another guest staying in the upper unit during your stay. If so, the backyard and parking area are enjoyed by both. Also, there might be some noise transference between the floors...the charm of creaky stairs in a house built in 1903!

About the host

Hosted by Harriet Fox

Hi, I'm Harriet! I have three grown kids and now want to share my love and respect of the history of Fort Collins. Sometimes, when I sit on the porch, I can visualize the horse and buggy's riding down the street in front of the house. I feel like a steward of this piece of Colorado history!

I love to cook creatively and have a gourmet kitchen which is well suited to food prep and dining as are the kitchens in my short term rentals:)
The five things I can not live without are my grown kids, my family and friends, my enthusiasm for life, my garden, and outdoor living. My life motto is: Success in life is not getting what you want, but wanting what you get!

Why they chose this property

My college years were spent in the fabulous Fort Collins, and since then, the town has done nothing but grow and incorporate all the fun things that Colorado has to offer! This house is respectfully remodeled with all the modern amenities sophisticated renters would enjoy! Relax inside or venture forth to the vibrant day and night life, just steps away.

I have multiple short term rental properties on the same street. If this one is occupied during your desired dates, or if more space is needed, please check out our other offerings: VRBO #1234331,1171258,1171631,1238392, 1238440,1234330,1239774,1237525
