Loved the location, outside the town but close enough if you needed to shop or get something to eat. Home was perfect, big area to get together and talk at the end of the day. Everything was in great working order!

We loved it! The views the peace and quiet. Yet, it was not that far away from everything! The space was wonderful. My whole family absolutely loved Glenwood Springs.
Rustic cabin was just what we were looking for. We spent lots of time outdoors enjoying the views and peace and quiet. They had all the amenities that we needed. Great way to relax and rejuvenate.

We had an excellent time at this cottage! The location was beautiful and the home had enough space for us to sleep comfortably. The kitchen was a bit lacking as far as dishware and cookware goes, especially with a full house, but that wasn’t a huge issue. The view was gorgeous and the lack of AC wasn’t an issue at all even mid-July as it cools off plenty at night. We would definitely return if we are in the area again.

Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy
The cabin was rustic, and we were prepared for that. It was exactly the vibe that we were seeking as a family. The house itself was quite functional for us and the location was amazing. our primary complaint was that we were not sent arrival instructions, and therefore did not have the door code. This was remedied by discovering at the back door was unlocked. The host was quite apologetic when we finally made contact – and otherwise our stay was wonderful!
Nice place! Clean and comfortable. Would love to stay again!

The location of the property tucked in the side of the Colorado mountains was awesome. The view and wildlife were amazing to see. We saw and heard several elk, mule deer and little critters during our stay.

Very quaint cabin, quirky and unique in all the right ways. Plenty of space for our family of 7. Loved laying around playing games in front of the wood stove on chilly evenings. Felt very at home.

This lovely mountain home with its alpine views and vintage decor was perfect for our family ski trip to Sunlight Mountain Resort and the Glenwood hot springs. Also, Monique is a great host with excellent communication and a willingness to assist, as needed. Thank you!

Great to hear that you enjoyed your stay at our lovely mountain getaway! We're thrilled to know that you appreciated our vintage decor and the alpine views. It was a pleasure hosting you and your family for your ski trip to Sunlight Mountain Resort and Glenwood hot springs. Thank you for your kind words about my communication and willingness to assist. We hope to host you again soon!
It was a rainy weekend when we stayed (pretty rare for Glenwood), so some of the time we couldn't enjoy the views. It's a nice rustic cabin in terms of the location. Some of the seams are showing a bit (sticky doors, creaky floors). If that stuff is not a bother to you, great place to stay and probably great stargazing.

So relaxing, perfect spot to get away from the hustle and bustle.
We came to the Roaring Forks for a family wedding. I made, froze and then brought cookie dough from home to bake in CO for the wedding dessert table. All of the baking needs were available, the house had ample work space and provided excellent views during down time. The one mishap we had was a critter, maybe mouse, ate through a ziploc bag to eat my daughter’s airplane snack bag and the bag of powdered sugar left on the kitchen counter. Overall we loved this spot. Had a moose family visit on our last morning staying. We would come again.
