The host, Kim was exceptional in making our stay comfortable. The house amenities were perfect and the house was very comfortable for our group. The best thing is Kim kept in communication with us before arriving and alerted us of winter weather so we were prepared. Great stay.

In the middle of trees and horses! We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to this Coal Creek Canyon location! The house was roomy and well stocked. And we visited with all kinds of birds, bunnies and chipmunks! It was good fun feeding the lovely horses! A great location!

Outside of the property being amazing, Kim and Bruce were excellent hosts. They thought of just about everything and when we did need something, Kim was very swift and polite with her replies. I along with the 4 friends that stayed with me, highly recommend this destination!
We had an amazing stay at the ranch and from the youngest (3 years old) to the oldest (75 years old) everyone enjoyed there stay. Kim was a great host and communication was easy. We stayed 5 nights and would have loved to stay longer. Highly recommend to stay here.

Thanks so much for the nice review Tara, it was lovely to host your family! Be well, Kim
Everything was great. We loved the horses. We fed them all of the apples and carrots. We visited the magical hut and it was very cool. We enjoyed the pool table, hammock, and hot tub (although the water was cloudy from the minerals in the water). We loved seeing the birds, chipmunks, and bunnies. The surroundings were beautiful and peaceful. We were able to visit Table Mountain and the Walker Ranch Trail nearby. We had a wonderful time.

I'm so glad you all enjoyed your time with us! Yes, we have well water that is very mineral-laden, but I assure you we treat the hot tub and make sure it's safe between all visits. It's because of the minerals that we provide petrified drinking water and ice for our guests, but the water is safe for hot tub use! I'm glad you got to enjoy hiking at Walker Ranch and enjoyed the surrounding area as well.
Great setting and location. Clean and quiet, we found everything we needed with extras like hot tub and pool table. Friendly owner, easy to communicate. Will definitely consider staying again in the future.

Kim met us and walked us through the entire house when we arrived. The house is so spacious, comfortable and well-stocked with everything you need to cook should you choose to. Our gracious hostess, who was easy to reach and responsive, even provided goodies for us and treats to feed the horses. We enjoyed the hot tub and our grandsons played outside on the play set for hours. The location was perfect for visits to Nederland, Boulder and hiking. While we had no cell signal, the internet was very good at the house. Morning and evening walks around the quiet neighborhood began and ended perfect days at this lovely property.

Dear Liz,
I'm delighted that your entire family enjoyed their stay at our Ranch! I strive to make it a warm and welcoming space, offering something of interest for all generations.
Yes, since we are in the Rockies in a Canyon at 8000', the only cell tower up here is AT&T. So if one has AT&T, they should have cell service, however, if not, that is why I do provide guests with a Land Line to either call out from (48 mainland states long distance service included) or number can be given out for you to receive calls from friend or family.
I truly hope to welcome you all back to our Ranch someday!
Cheers,
Kim
Beautiful property the horses were great to look out almost every window to see them grazing. we had a family gathering for our son’s college graduation and it worked out perfect.

Dear Lisa,
Thanks so much, I’m so glad our Ranch worked well for your family and graduation event! Sorry the weather wasn’t nicer during your stay, but at least we have plenty of room to stretch out in. We enjoyed hosting you all and if you ever happen to be in our neck of the woods again, we will gladly extend you a “Repeaters Discount”.
Be Well, Kim
The property was easy to get to. The pictures of inside and outside are accurate. Kim supplied apples and carrots to feed the horses and she welcomed people walking around the property. Kim was very responsive to our needs. Would recommend this property to others.

Magical property and surrounding area!
The pictures don’t do this place justice. This is a very special place that must be experienced to appreciate!
Kim was a wonderful host, very thoughtful and easy to communicate with. We got to stay over Memorial Day weekend and enjoy the horses out front, the pool table inside, and the hot tub outside. The master bed was very comfortable and the chocolates on the pillow were a cute touch!
We had such a wonderful and peaceful time in the Canyon. The horses were wonderful for the kids, and the calmness was great for the parents. Home was clean, beds were comfy! Kim even had some extra dry goods and spice ready for us if we forgot anything.

This house was in the perfect location for a family trip.Kim was gracious enough to let us check in early due to a snow shower. She gave us a great list of activities and shopping. The house had everything we needed. The beds were super comfortable. We really enjoyed having the pool table and the fireplace. Would definitely stay again.

About the host
Hosted by Kim
Property Owner has been in the hospitality and travel business for over 30 yrs, has owned her own 2 successful Storefront Travel Agencies with a specialty in scuba dive tours, and has worked on a yacht B&B. In 2012, she began offering her Ranch property for vacation rentals. She knows what good hospitality means and strives to make your experience on the Ranch a good one! If you have a special occasion, please advise the Owner in advance and she'll be happy to decorate for you. Special Events available for a fee. Catering and in-home cooking classes available with arrangement prior to arrival.
Why they chose this property
This is our family home. We liked the idea that we could share our slice of heaven with others looking for the true Rocky Mountain high experience!
When the owner /s in town, the family may be on land. It's 11 acres, so there's lots of room to roam! If owners are in town during a booking, they stay in a separate, private area with a separate entrance (which isn't part of the Vacation Rental). The owners respect guests' privacy but remain available to service if needed. Otherwise, owners will never enter the main Ranch House during your stay.
Special Events; parties, weddings, retreats, etc., and catering are available for extra fees. Must be arranged well in advance and pre- approved by the Owner.
What makes this property unique
Beautiful Views, wildlife, serenity, fresh mountain air, hiking and mountain biking nearby, close to skiing, gaming, and shopping. Drive time is 45 min to downtown Denver, 25-30 min to Boulder and Nederland, and 20 minutes to Downtown Golden.
Lovely Coal Creek Canyon Community. We are away from City lights so the Stars at night from our land are truly wonderful! Most of the time you can see the Milky Way -- extra special to gaze upon while soaking in the outdoor Hot Tub!
