About this property

A jewel of a cozy cottage on the stream

A lovely and convenient location for this historic house with modern comforts. The back porch sits along a stream and there are two other outdoor sitting areas to relax and enjoy the wonderful nature show. Your view will include bluebirds playing the in the trees and fantastic mountain views. The walk to the main street of town is in the 100s of feet!

This two bedroom home was built in the late 1800s so has all the character of a historic home but the convenience of a kitchen and bathroom that were updated in 2018.

Your creature comforts include two adorable bedrooms with very comfortable beds. Each room has independent heating and can be adjusted for your personal preference. A cute bathroom with a soaking tub and all the amenities to relax and enjoy after a great day of skiing, hiking, riding, walking or whatever! (It is your vacation!)
A cozy living/dining area with very comfortable furniture to relax, play games, or watch television.
A nice fully equipped and updated kitchen with soft close cabinets, appliances, washer dryer.

The drive to the nearest ski area, Loveland, is 11 miles. You feel a million miles from the city and can relax in this location while being about an hour from Denver.

The shower is in the clawfoot bathtub; a consideration if anyone in your party has a challenge stepping up.

In the summer you can open the windows a little and relax to the sound of the water running in the stream.

This is one of my favorite places to be and I hope it will be yours too.

Please enjoy and make beautiful memories!

My husband and I have been staying here a couple times a year for awhile now and we have never had a bad experience. We love that it's close to the creek and we can hear it at night. Mary is always very quick to respond when any issue arises, the kitchen is stocked with everything you would need to prep and make meals and the location is perfect as it's less than a block to the Georgetown historical district. We frequently see big horn sheep grazing in the front yards of the houses on that block. We will keep coming back!

Great stay in downtown

This was my 2nd time staying in Georgetown, and this cottage and location were wonderful! The kitchen is incredibly well-stocked, beds are incredibly comfortable, and the patio by the creek outside are beautiful. The cottage has all the charm (and quirks) of a historic house. I would love to stay here again!

Fantastic Central Stay in the Mountains of CO

We had absolutely fantastic time staying at this place with our family. It was spacious, historic, beautiful house off the creek! We went skiing at 3 diffetent mountains and they all felt central from this location. Communication, cleanliness and affordability, everything was amazing. We will stay there again. Thank you.

We absolutely loved our visit to Georgetown. The house was perfect for us and the location amazingly close to the old town square. The stream and Aspen in the outdoor sitting area were so calming and beautiful.

Cozy well equiped cottage

My husband and I booked this cottage for a weekend getaway from Denver. We have dietary restriction that makes it very difficult to eat out at most restaurants. This home had everything we needed to prepare and cook most of our meals. We also saw so much wildlife just in few days. Will definitely book here again.

Charming cottage by the stream

I’ve stayed here before & ALWAYS breathe a sigh of relief when I 1st get out of the car & hear that beautiful calming water! The home is simply charming & relaxing…nothing fancy but that is what makes it unique. I had 1 question over the tv connection & it was responded to right away!!

Just as described!

The owner planted a beautiful flower garden which was very welcoming. We stayed for 2 months to avoid the high temperatures in Louisiana and we enjoyed every minute of our stay. Plenty of towels and bedding and everything we needed in the kitchen. Thank you Mary.

Quaint home in a perfect location

We stayed here for a week for our honeymoon. The house is in the perfect location. Quick walk to all shops and restaurants. The stream behind the home is so charming. It is an older home with quirks and charm, but is the perfect place to stay if you want to get the true feel of Georgetown.
