Stay in Golden

We came to Golden for a wedding. This home was perfect for our needs. Communication with the host was great. We liked having the use of a garage. The home is about a 10 minute drive from downtown Golden.

A bit of a miss

Overall ok enough. Location was where we wanted mostly, the house is bare bones effort on decor, if I had to describe it, goodwill sheek.. Tge house reeked of cat urine upon entering and lasted.. come to find out, the washing machine was completely disgusting with animal hair, human hair, crusty grime- and the urine smell was also coming from it. The toilet paper holders were at the floor in every bathroom. Zero throw pillows, most of the mattresses were worthless and need replacement. Sheets miss matched, towels need replacement and are musty. The shower curtains, stained.. the floor boards need a complete overhaul. Kitchen lacks decent pans and such. Plenty of silverware. Front and back doors no such privacy, open large windows on each with no curtain to provide privacy. No curtains at all in home. Dust/hair balls everywhere. I ended up cleaning out the washer so it could be usable. I also had to clean out the disgusting bathroom sink drains, too clogged up with hair and chunks of idk what. Bed pillows and blankets were old and not in good shape. Tv and stereo covered in thick dust. The owner had messaged about meeting before and after our stay which we all found very odd, he also messaged about the garage door being open during our stay, it appeared to have a little glitch and opened (or was opened ) while we were out. This could be a great place if it was clean and updated a bit. Overall I wouldn’t stay again unless it’s overhauled

Great layout and perfect location for us.

The house was in a perfect location for what we needed. The layout of the house was terrific. The kitchen could stand to be stocked a little better, especially with silverware and dinnerware. Plenty of cookware, even had a crockpot, which came in handy. We had a lot of game nights and the dining table was perfect! We also were able to park in the garage, so that was a big plus!

Wonderfully Spacious & Well Equipped Home

This is a beautiful and spacious home, with a nice sized fenced back yard - great for me, my husband and our dogs. It would easily & comfortably accommodate more people, and everyone would still have space for privacy & to relax. The kitchen and linen closets were well stocked. We had every comfort. And it was just minutes from Colorado School of Mines, which was our main reason for visiting the area. Tom was the perfect host.

Golden stay

Spacious! Every room was large. Main area was open, with cathedral ceilings. Well-appointed kitchen. Very nice sectional in living room. Might want to consider adding a couple of side chairs or recliners. Being able to park in the garage was a bonus. Tom responded quickly at check-in and check-out, and there were no problems during our stay.

This is our second visit. We are from NH and have adult daughters in Colorado. The house has comfortable beds, nice bathrooms and kitchen. A fenced in back yard for dogs. A large driveway for 3-4 cars plus a garage if you choose to park inside. Close to the highway and grocery and other shopping.

Bright, spacious, safe, close to restaurants and stores, close to hiking trails

My husband, myself and my granddaughter (age 7) stayed at this property to celebrate Thanksgiving with my son and fiance. The house was bright, spacious, warm, and clean. We had everything we needed to make a wonderful Thanksgiving; the kitchen is well-stocked, even a slow cooker, which came in very handy. Tom was easy to communicate with and obliged an early check-in and late check-out. There are grocery stores and restaurants in close proximity to the property and a lovely hiking trail right around the corner. Tom also permitted my son to bring his dog. Overall, a great stay and we would stay again!

Enjoyed our stay

My family and I stayed for a little over a week before my daughter moved into her dorm at CSM. The house had plenty of space for our family of six. The beds were comfortable, and the internet was fast allowing me to work remotely for a few days. It is a ten minute drive to CSM campus. I would gladly stay again.

Cute house, but had flaws

This house was super cute, however many things were missing and misrepresented. First of all, it was advertised as being in Golden, and while it was close to Golden in miles, the actual neighborhood was way more junky than the quaint Golden, proper. It was obvious that the bare minimum was given in relation to the furniture, decor, and cooking utensils....there was art with broken glass, a coffee table that was flimsy, and many not-so-gently used, cheap dishes etc. Also the kitchen drawers were dirty! In fact, the whole house seemed like it needed a good deep cleaning, which is a far cry from the professed luxury that was advertised. Also, it was advertised that all the bedrooms were spaciously spread out over the house, but in fact two of the bedrooms were right next door to one another. The bedspreads were cheap blankets, with no formal comforters. Within day 2 of our 4 night stay we ran out of toilet paper, and the soap dispensers were dilluted with water which squirted everywhere. Some of the good qualities: the house itself had a spacious master suite, there were plenty of windows, and it also had a nice big back yard. The property has huge potential, but was definitely missing many of the luxury touches that would be expected for the price.

Clean and comfortable house

The house was spacious and clean for five adults, three small children, and three dogs. The fenced backyard was perfect for the dogs, too. The beds were very clean and comfortable and I liked that there were portable fans in each bedroom, too. Tom was there to provide any information or supplies that we needed. Overall I was very satisfied with my experience.

Great Stay in Golden

We had a wonderful stay in Golden! Tom was a great host. Quiet neighborhood, a very comfortable and clean home. Beds were very comfy! All the linens and towels you would need too. The home was perfect for our Denver family and visiting family to spend time together and prepare our meals in a beautiful and modern kitchen. The fenced yard was a plus for our grand kids and puppy. Thank you again for sharing this beautiful home. We will definitely be back!

Perfect location for Red Rocks adventures!

This property is perfect for Red Rocks adventures and more. It served as a great home base for all of our activities, including a day trip to Mt. Evans. It’s one mile from the Colorado Mills mall, with lots of stores and restaurants. Tom was way to communicate with and even though he was next door he gave us lots of privacy. I highly recommend and wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.
