Beautiful and comfortable updated house. Had everything we needed and more. Owner very attentive and nice clear instructions. Prefect comfy base camp location for Red Rocks adventures. Would absolutely stay here again.
Large house close to Golden and shopping center. Comfortable beds and basic necessities made this perfect for a family home base. Owner was very communicative and flexible with check-in/out times.
We stayed here for a college graduation. The place was perfect for our family and grandparents. Loved the main living area for hanging out together. Rooms were spacious and nice that everyone had their own space.
We loved staying at this house. Fit our whole group and plenty of space, beds and bathrooms! This house is definitely centrally located and minutes from everything you need. Definitely recommend!

Thanks. Many guest have noted the great location, close to I-70 and Red Rocks and 15 minutes to Downtown Denver.
This is our second time staying at this property and highly recommend it. Tom is great communicating and made the process easy. The house was perfect for visiting our daughter while at Mines. It’s minutes from everything in Golden and just a few blocks from trails for some easy in town hikes.

We appreciate that great review - consistent with most guests' comments and in contrast with a few. (Some people arrive with intent to do harm you know? That's just life.) The house is indeed minutes from Golden but in a quiet seemingly secluded spot. We've lived in the neighborhood for years and love it. Hope to see you again.
Tom was very responsive when booking and met us shortly after we arrived to the house to answer any questions. Clean and spacious house in a very nice and quite neighborhood. We will definitely book again!
We came to Golden for a wedding. This home was perfect for our needs. Communication with the host was great. We liked having the use of a garage. The home is about a 10 minute drive from downtown Golden.
Tom is awesome and he accommodates all your needs. The house is in a GREAT location and easy access to all your store needs.
Will stay here again 100% !!.
Thanks again Tom

It was great to have you Chris. Hope to see you all again.
Our family enjoyed Thanksgiving in Golden Colorado. The house was perfect. It’s large, very clean and well-maintained. The owner was hospitable and very friendly. Linens were fresh, kitchen dishes were available. Fantastic house and he’ll definitely stay there again!
Great house, easy access to I-70, quiet neighborhood.
This is a beautiful house that has been well taken care of. Access to I-70 is nearly immediate but far enough away to provide nighttime quiet. The property owner lives next door and is quick to respond. He worked with a small issue we had with the doggie door and it was handled within 15 minutes.The beds were super comfortable. You can sink into the couch. Full House access.
The house was in a perfect location for what we needed. The layout of the house was terrific. The kitchen could stand to be stocked a little better, especially with silverware and dinnerware. Plenty of cookware, even had a crockpot, which came in handy. We had a lot of game nights and the dining table was perfect! We also were able to park in the garage, so that was a big plus!

Thanks for recognizing the advantages of the house layout and location. The stock of silverware tends to "shrink" over time, so thanks for raising that issue. We have already taken steps to correct it.
This is our second visit. We are from NH and have adult daughters in Colorado. The house has comfortable beds, nice bathrooms and kitchen. A fenced in back yard for dogs. A large driveway for 3-4 cars plus a garage if you choose to park inside. Close to the highway and grocery and other shopping.
This home is very well maintained and was a great “home base” for my group to experience Denver and the surrounding area. The town of Golden has many wonderful things to do. There was quick access to downtown Denver, and also easy to access the trails/parks west of Denver. There are multiple restaurants and stores within 5 minutes. The neighborhood was quiet and secluded. Tom was super helpful with any questions we had and made it easy to check in! Would definitely stay again on my next visit!

Thanks for your comprehensive review. As you say, Golden itself has a great downtown area with nice restaurants, a couple of microbreweries, and a historic music venue (the Buffalo Rose), newly renovated. It's nice to be recognized for all the area has to offer.

Review of owner
Property located next door to owner. Ownet seemed a bit too nosy. Entered property while we were not there. Seemed intrusive.

What a crazy review. We entered the garage for less than 60 seconds to check on a stored appliance. We announced the entry in advance. We notified you immediately when it was done. We always respect guest privacy completely without exception. But we find that some guests arrive with an intent to do harm.
This is a beautiful and spacious home, with a nice sized fenced back yard - great for me, my husband and our dogs. It would easily & comfortably accommodate more people, and everyone would still have space for privacy & to relax. The kitchen and linen closets were well stocked. We had every comfort. And it was just minutes from Colorado School of Mines, which was our main reason for visiting the area. Tom was the perfect host.
Spacious! Every room was large. Main area was open, with cathedral ceilings. Well-appointed kitchen. Very nice sectional in living room. Might want to consider adding a couple of side chairs or recliners. Being able to park in the garage was a bonus. Tom responded quickly at check-in and check-out, and there were no problems during our stay.
Bright, spacious, safe, close to restaurants and stores, close to hiking trails
My husband, myself and my granddaughter (age 7) stayed at this property to celebrate Thanksgiving with my son and fiance. The house was bright, spacious, warm, and clean. We had everything we needed to make a wonderful Thanksgiving; the kitchen is well-stocked, even a slow cooker, which came in very handy. Tom was easy to communicate with and obliged an early check-in and late check-out. There are grocery stores and restaurants in close proximity to the property and a lovely hiking trail right around the corner. Tom also permitted my son to bring his dog. Overall, a great stay and we would stay again!
