Summary:
"Fifth Street" is a quintessential family-friendly and dog-friendly home with plenty of room kids playing foosball or reading downstairs or grilling on the deck while they soak up the mountain views. Reviews highlight that two bedrooms up and two bedrooms down, the convenient location to all of old town Westcliffe.

Four bedrooms with six beds, easily sleeps up to 10 guests.

The Space:
It's a tri-level home with a half level up to the main floor where the master bedroom, a second bedroom, full bath, living room and kitchen/dining room are located. Beyond the dining area is a huge deck with views of a historic school house and a 1880's Lutheran Church... with the Sangre de Cristos in the background.

Down a half floor from the entry is a garden level with two bedrooms, a wood stove, reading room, game room with a Foosball table and a sunroom equipped with a 6-person hot tub. (Access to the hot tub is $75 per day so you do have to not pay for the extra cost of a hot tub if your group are not fans of hot tubs.). While the hot tub is separated in a sun room, a few guests have reported that their allergies limited the amount of time they spend on the lower level.

From the lower level, French doors open out to a concrete patio shaded by the deck. The back yard is fenced in by a wire-grid fence designed to keep deer out and dogs in. You are welcome to let your dog run free in the back yard.

Flat panel Smart TVs are in every bedroom and the garden-level family/reading room. Lots of board games and books - travel, history, and more...

Dogs are $60 per stay with a two dog maximum. So if you are not traveling with a dog, you are not paying for the extra cleaning time. The hot tub fee is $75 per stay, so those not using the hot tub fee do are not covering for the extra maintenance cost.

Guest Access:
Guests have access to the entire home and the backyard, which is fenced. Access to the hot tub is subject to a $75 fee. This per-stay fee includes plenty of "tubbing towels". Just download our guest experience app to opt in for hot tub or pet fee. Once approved, we will send a separate door code to provide access the the sunroom with the hot tub.
