Best of Breck/Blue River

We are a family of 5 with 2 under two and this place was perfect! It had everything you need for little ones and perfect for a winter getaway, even if you dont have small children. We will definitely be back many times I am sure!

Spectacular

We had an awesome time staying here. The master bathroom shower has a steamer function which was a very nice touch. The kitchen was fully stocked and the views of the surrounding area were very beautiful. Highly recommend.

Far away and super-close

This place was the perfect location for our group. Blue River feels far away in the peace of the mountains, but it's just 10 minutes from drop-off at the Breck lifts. The place has everything we needed for our family and our pup. We'll be back.

Beautiful location, great space!

We loved being here with our family for Christmas. It is a wonderful location with lovely hikes right outside the door. The view from the living room is gorgeous and the the big, well stocked fireplace made the room so cozy.We used the kitchen ALOT and found it to be a very nice space to cook and dine in. All the bedrooms were spacious and the bathrooms were nice. I would love to see the porches and property in the summer. They look very inviting!

Spring Break 2024

Great place to stay with plenty of room to spread out. We had a group of 7 adults and were very comfortable from a space perspective. Kitchen VERY well supplied with utensils, spices etc. Bathrooms, utility room etc also well supplied. Master shower has a steaming device that is great after a long day of skiing. A great location. Very quiet and secluded. Not too close to town and not very far away either. About 7-10 minutes from Beaver Run parking/lifts at Peak 9. Would recommend and hope to come back sometime.

A Cool Respite from the Texas Heat

It was everything we were hoping for and more! The location was at the end of a cul-de-sac. It seemed so secluded yet was close to neighbors all around. Bounded by a cold, clear stream on the back/deck side and a protected wetland out the front windows. Lots of wildlife all around. We wanted to stay out on the deck forever. It had everything we needed in the kitchen, plus a gas grill out on the deck. We used it all!! But it’s less than 5 miles into the town of Breckinridge with too many great restaurants to pick from. I really hope we can go back next year!!! Watch for the moose! I wish they had a place that I could post the picture of the big bull moose we saw one evening!!

Great location, clean, comfortable, and lots of extras!

Our group of 7 adults were very comfortable at this wonderful log cabin home. It’s in a great location close to Breckenridge and hiking trails. Wonderful Mountain views and a nice large deck with plenty of seating. Also, plenty of comfortable seating inside for our group to gather. No one even felt the need to turn on the TV…we were able to just enjoy each other and the environment!Kitchen is fully stocked with a lot of nice extras we weren’t expecting. We were completely unaware of this area not selling plastic bottles of water so the filtered automatic water dispenser in the refrigerator was a Godsend to refill our water bottles! All the small and large appliances were extra nice and fully operational! The crank windows and unique shades were great to let in just enough cool air and light!Just a couple of negatives…the master bed and sofa bed are not very comfortable especially if you are used to a softer mattress, but the other beds were great!The owner communicated with us before checkin, was very attentive, quick to answer questions, and took care of all our needs. Overall, the house was very clean and comfortable! The extra nice furniture and decor were a plus!! We loved our stay and would definitely choose this home again!!

Not A Premium Property

When we arrived the house had not been cleaned and there was dog hair all over the unmade beds and pillows, wet towels still hung by shower from the previous renters, snotty Kleenex were still in the trash cans, you get the idea. And for what this property charges per night, it should’ve been perfect upon arrival. After several calls, the owner/property management company provided a partial refund. There’s a lot of deferred maintenance apparent with this property. The dishwasher didnt work, the garbage disposal didn’t work, the baseboards by the kitchen sink were gone leaving exposed metal staples and filth in the kitchen of all places. The bed mattresses were of low quality and uncomfortable to sleep on. The living room couches were stained and filthy. My family loves Blue River and we stay there every winter, and this house was in an idyllic neighborhood. However, I would never stay at this property again. It isn’t worth the money and there are far more superior properties for equal or less cost.

Hi Kane, we take it seriously when guests let us know we missed the mark, and we’re sorry your experience didn’t meet expectations. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:- We regret the home wasn’t cleaned before your arrival, and once we were made aware, it was resolved within the hour.- The dishwasher repair was scheduled early in your stay, but ultimately, you declined the service—this decision prevented us from completing the fix during the visit.- The garbage disposal is intentionally disabled for safety and is noted in the house instructions.- We’ve received positive feedback about the mattresses, but we understand preferences vary, and we’re continuing to make home updates, including new flooring scheduled for next month.Thank you again for your feedback; it helps us continue to improve the guest experience.

6/10 Okay

Nice house but also disappointing

This house was in a beautiful location in the Blue River valley. Views were wonderful and the deck was very nice. The master bed and couches were comfortable and we were able to check in early. Beyond that, the reasons below are why I only gave it 3 stars.The house needs a lot of maintenance and general cleaning. While the bedrooms and bathrooms were mostly clean, the kitchen needed a thorough cleaning. There were crumbs on the kitchen sink rug, general trash/junk/dirt in the kitchen drawers, old food in the fridge; and there was even a pacifier sitting out on the baker’s rack, along with broken blinds from the slider door.Maintenance items that need to be addressed:• There were lightbulbs out everywhere and the entire light fixture over the kitchen island didn’t work at all.• The bathtub in the guest bathroom, which we never used, constantly dripped, causing the well pump to run every few minutes, which made a humming/vibrating noise the entire time we were there. • The shower door in the master bathroom had a terrible leak and the bathmat was soaking wet after every shower. But the biggest frustration/complaint was that all of the digital thermostats were contained in locked covers. They were all set at 62 degrees. If you wanted it any warmer, you had to call, not text, the owner and ask to turn it up. I saw this in other, older reviews but honestly thought that it would have changed by now. Why wouldn’t you want your guests to be comfortable, and if you can’t afford the heating bills, then increase the rent! Being in a mountain home at over 10,000 ft means it’s chilly in the mornings, even in late June (when we were there); but does the owner really want people calling at 6am to turn up the heat?? It’s ridiculous! We’ve stayed in numerous vacation rentals and have never experienced anything like this. I hope that the management company and owners make some improvements. But we won’t stay here again and won’t recommend it.

Hi Karen, thanks for taking the time to review your stay. After reading your feedback, the homeowner wanted to share the following: - We apologize for the kitchen cleanliness issues. If you had let us know, we would have promptly sent the cleaning team back to address them. - We're sorry about the maintenance concerns. It was actually the toilet and not the tub that was running; it has since been fixed by a plumber, and we're scheduling an electrician to repair the main bathroom light. - Regarding the thermostat, we understand your frustration. We could have easily adjusted it with a quick call. - There are no broken slats on the shade, and the island light works correctly. Once again, we appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve the guest experience.

Excelente!, tiene todo lo necesario para tus vacaciones .. regresaría y quiero esta misma propieda.

Excelente ! , es lo que necesitas para tú viaje , es relajante, demasiado cómoda en todos los aspectos .. sólo que la limpieza debe ser más profunda ya que las telas de araña son muy visibles y es una lástima porque habla mucho sobre la limpieza que por otro lado también es digno de resaltar que toda la ropa de cama olían súper bien .. solo eso en la limpieza le quitó una sola estrella para ser perfecta. En cuanto al anfitrión :(Excelente )cumplió rápidamente con todas nuestras inquietudes . De seguro estaría reservando en más ocasiones con ustedes).GRACIAS INFINITAS
