The cottage is exactly as pictured/described - cute, cozy, clean, well-appointed, and spacious. We enjoyed making use of all the little touches the host provided: coffee and snacks, the patio fire pit and zero gravity deck chairs under the stars. Really couldn’t imagine a better launching pad for our foothills adventures, or any more comfortable place to come home to!!

Loved the mountain home location. It’s on the way to Mt Falcon. Beautiful location coming from a big city loved the serenity and country living, very peaceful. The cottage looked fairly new, was very neat, very clean and perfectly and comfortably decorated. Everything was perfect and our host was very accommodating.

This is an amazing property in every aspect. The cabin is adorable and very well appointed. The location is excellent for hiking, Red Rocks, or just general exploring. What makes this property stand out even more are the hosts. Quick responses, accommodating, they loaned us seats for Red Rocks and even messaged us at one point to let us know there was an elk grazing in the yard. We will be back!

Remote not too far away

Fully equipped kitchen with everything and more. Day one woke up to deer in the woods with gorgeous view. Red Rocks venue close by and borrowed padded stadium chairs. More local trailheads 1, 2, 8 miles for excellent hikes minutes away than we could complete in our 5 day stay. Even went to downtown Denver in 30-45 min.

Loved the woodland cottage, it was one of my favorite VRBO’s so far! It was decorated beautifully with so many wonderful little touches throughout and came stocked with everything we could possibly need, including snacks, games, even a stocked medicine cabinet. We even borrowed some stadium cushions for the shows at Red Rocks that we were there for. The location was so convenient and the surroundings were gorgeous! We loved sitting on the deck watching the deer (and I think I saw two foxes!) pass through the yard. Thank you for an amazing stay! We’ll definitely be back when we’re in the area.

About the host

Hosted by Joe Mellberg

Host profile image
Hello! My name is Joe and I am from Morrison, CO. I love to travel, mountain bike, ski, hike, and explore the outdoors. I also have lots of memories of listening to Red Rocks concerts from my parent's rooftop deck in Morrison. With these experiences, I hope to offer others the same opportunities and a fun and comfortable place to stay while exploring or relaxing as well as providing input on places to go and things to do.

In my spare time, I am also a volunteer firefighter and EMT, so if I pull out of the driveway fast and speed off- I'm just responding to a 911 call.

Why they chose this property

I grew up biking and hiking in Indian Hills at Mt Falcon, Lair O' the Bear, and other trails in the area as well as fishing in Bear Creek. I knew from a young age that I wanted to live here as it is close to my home town, but a little further into the mountains. It allows me to live in a small, quiet mountain town, but work in downtown Denver. It truly is the best of both worlds.

What makes this property unique

A few years back my wife and I sold our house in Morrison and bought our lot in Indian Hills. I have always had an interest in architecture, so my wife and I designed our dream home- something totally unique with a space to share with others. What was supposed to take a year and a half- only took 4! Who knew building a house ourselves would be that hard?! (Everyone but us.) But we did it, and we are thrilled to welcome guests to sit on the deck and stargaze or enjoy the view of the trees, mountains, deer, turkeys, birds, and occasional elk that bring us joy. (As I am writing this, there is a deer laying down 10' from me enjoying the shade under the deck.)

Our property is in the middle of hiking and biking trails, totally removed from the noise and congestion of the city, but close enough to pop in for all that Denver has to offer. We have several parks within a 2-7 minute drive, as well as a parkour gym and playground that you can walk to from the cottage.

The cottage itself is also unique. It is an octagon, which was a compromise between myself and my wife who loves circles. Though it is next door to the main house, we have it set up for privacy and we are committed to making you feel like you've got the place to yourself. The benefit is we are close by and ready to help if you need anything at all. Need to borrow something? Want to chat about fun things to do in the area? Just come on over! We are always available, but will not interrupt your stay. You won't hear from us unless you reach out first.
