Great place to stay in a great location. Plenty of room for us and our extended family. Close to the dam for our boat. No better way to watch the Broncos win than on the big screen on the deck. Nice and clean. Great communication and would definitely stay again.

Lovely home.

Well thought out layout. Nicely appointed. Everything covered. Be aware that after paying a cleaning fee you are still expected to vaccume, mop, and wipe down bathrooms before you leave.

Great accommodation

I stayed at My Happy Place for a weekend with friends and it was a lovely clean place. It was great for group entertainment and had plenty of kitchen equipment. One downside was the cleaning requirements on checkout including vacuuming, sweeping, mopping if necessary, and wiping down vanity/mirrors/bathrooms. These tasks were on top of the cleaning fee charged and this was not obvious to us on booking.

☆ 5 stars from us.

☆ 5 stars from us. We stayed for a week and will be back as soon as we can. House is so beautiful and clean. Everything is like brand new. Photos don't do it justice it actually looks better in person than the photos. Perfect outdoor entertaining area with a huge outdoor table that turns into a pool table, another big plus was the outdoor projector. Plenty of fridge space inside and outside which is a big plus for family's staying together. Dishwasher and air-conditioning throughout!! Beds were super comfy and the kitchen was fully stocked with cutlery and tableware no need need bring anything to cook with, and the outdoor BBQ was so nice and clean. Driveway has plenty of space also which was perfect for our boat and a few other cars. Kids had an absolute ball so much entertainment in the kids bunk room, the lawns and gardens are really well maintained outside also. We can't wait to come back. 👍
