Good spot for us!

We were out and about most of the time hiking and doing the Glenwood Springs thing. Tina was very responsive and put our comfort up most important when we had some problems with the AC. Great communication! House was great and we had a great time while we were there. Thanks!

Perfect family holidays getaway

We had such an amazing time at this place. The host was very helpful and very quick in response. They were able to accommodate everything we needed. The house is well equipped, especially for whose who plan to cook. The location is a bit remote, it takes about an hour to get to ski resorts, and half an hour to get to hot springs. Overall, it was a great family getaway. Thank you to the host and the owner of the place for our wonderful stay!

Cozy and comfortable

Our kids didn't want to leave! The house felt like going home to visit family. Each tween got their own room and large bed and the beds were very comfortable. Great layout for family time. Plus, the neighborhood cat was sweet as can be, and entertained the kids for hours.

Perfect place for family and friends to catch up

We had an absolutely fantastic time staying at this rental. My brother has lived in Rifle for years and we have never been able to find a good housing solution for our frequent trips into the mountains. The hotels are full of teenagers partying and the other rentals are too far away. This place fit the bill for us! I have 3 kids with 2 under 3 so the backyard playground was AMAZING! The beds we’re comfortable and there was plenty of space for our party of 6. There were no complicated labor intensive directions like other rentals and it was very accessible. We will definitely be staying here again!

Very pleased with this VRBO!

We found the house to be very nice and just as described from the pictures inside and out! The furnishings and beds were very comfortable and the kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked with dishes, towels, etc. The house was immaculate and the lawn very well cared for. If we were to note anything negative it would be that the ceiling fans in the living room and dining room were not functional. That was a little disappointing due to the unexpected warmer temps that Rifle was having during our stay. Other than that, it was a great place to stay and much better than staying in a hotel.
