About this property

Historic two bedroom house in Old Town Steamboat Springs. Quiet neighborhood.

My wife and I remodeled the home in 2019 and is a charming vacation get away. It has two bedrooms, one on each floor, 2 1/2 baths, large entry, dining area, living room, kitchen and beer on tap. The Spruce Nest is on a dead-end street. However, near the end of the street is a trail that follows Butcher Knife Creek and leads to a dog park several blocks away. Downtown is about a 10-minute walk, leading to many stores, restaurants, and the 'Yampa River. Strawberry Park Natural Hot Springs and access to Buffalo Pass is about a 15 to 20-minute drive. You'll love the location. Quiet and close to everything.

We now have a 50-Amp Electric Vehicle car charging station for quick charging.

Have a large group or another family that you would like to spend time with? We now offer the Aspen Grove, a short-term rental attached to the back of the Spruce Nest. It also sleeps 5, has two bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths, kitchen, living and dining area and large deck. And, there is a lockable adjoining door between the two units, so no need to go outside to visit. You must book both places at the same time. You can search for VRBO # 318705 for the Aspen Grove listing.

Don't see the dates you want? Try our other listing at the Aspen Grove. You can search for VRBO # 318705 for the Aspen Grove listing.

If you are a single or single couple and only don't use one bedroom and bath, you will receive a $50 refund for our house cleaners not having to clean that area! After you leave, we will make sure nothing was used in one bedroom and bath. If the sheets and bath are unused, I will refund you $50. It's that simple.
Contact me if you have any questions.

Beautiful home, great location.
We loved our stay at the Spruce Nest! Honestly, there are a million places to stay in Steamboat, but I dont think any of them score 5's like this one. You can walk to the bus for skiing, walk to downtown for dinner, relax in a quiet neighborhood, and Tom, the property manager was super communicative. Small side note, the beds are the most comfortable you'll ever stay in. I am literally going to buy the same sheets for my room!

Cozy and close to everything!
We came to Steamboat for family fun and relaxation and Tom’s property was a great home base for both. The home is on a quiet street, with a driveway that allows 2 SUV’s to park. One bedroom has an en-suite bath with shower and the upstairs bathroom is private with an adjacent full bathroom. The kitchen is well appointed and we enjoyed cooking in.Thanks Tom, we had a great stay!

Wonderful location and very clean
What a wonderful place to nest with the family!!! This home is nestled in a small quiet community within walking distance of shops, church, restaurants, art galleries, bars and Howelsen Hill. The home is extremely clean with comfortable beds/pillows, heated bathroom floors, large round dining table and cozy den. Our family of five was extremely comfortable as we were in town for a ski trip. The snowboarders in the family were thrilled to have boot warmers on sight…and not a bad drive to Steamboat. Many of our meals were cooked in-house with a well equipped kitchen and free flowing beer through the two in-house taps provided by our host Tom. If we had any issues or questions, Tom, the host, was quick to respond and help. This is a wonderful place to stay. I highly recommend if you are looking for a place to relax or call home base for a while.

Excellent week stay @ Spruce Nest in downtown Steamboat
Lovely, well appointed house in ideal location! The home was super clean and very well stocked with cleaning supplies, kitchen spices and cooking items and everything rentals usually leave out, including Kombucha and beer on tap! Tom is a great host and very accommodating. We hope to return. We really enjoyed staying here. Spruce Nest deserves 6 stars.

Cute and cozy home
Tom’s home is perfect for a mountain get-away. It’s located in a quiet neighborhood, walkable to downtown. The home is updated but still has that mountain/cozy feel. The beds were super comfy and the heated floor in the bedrooms made it super pleasant in the chilly mornings. We’ll definitely be coming back and staying here!

About the host

Hosted by Tom Williams

Host profile image
I moved to Steamboat Springs in 1979 because of the beauty of the surrounding area, outdoor activities and good economic potential. So far, I have not been dissatisfied. My wife and I love riding ATVs in the summer, hiking and rafting down the Yampa. We would like to share The Spruce Nest with you special places to see, feel and experience. Like the Hot Springs.

Why they chose this property

My wife and I purchased this property about 25 years as a long term rental. In 2018 we decided to remodel it, yet keep the historic character. We left the two-story building intact, added and entry, master bed room and bath, powder room/laundry and dining area. We also remodeled the kitchen and added a beer tap. There is all new furniture and carpet. The exterior was also re-landscaped. It's got a great location - 10 minute walk from downtown and on a dead-end street near the edge of town. What more could be better? Come and see for yourself!

In the spring/summer 2022, we will be remodeling the back portion of the duplex for a vacation rental. It will have two master bedrooms/baths on the ground floor, with the living room, kitchen and powder bath on the second floor. A partially covered deck will complement the living space on the second floor. A carport with a covered walkway will provide protection from rain/snow from the parking area to the unit for all seasons. It should be available late summer 2022.
