Cute and Quaint
The description of this property is definitely spot-on: cozy and comfortable. While the bedroom and bathroom are tight, the living area layout and kitchen make this place seem larger than it is. In the warmer months the front porch and back patio expand your living options. There is an authentic old-time miner cabin feel to the house but, other than no dishwasher, the appliances and other amenities are modern--I loved the coffee grinder and whole beans provided and this is a very well stocked property! The view out front and the well-forested mountains beyond remind me of a Kentucky coal town out here in Colorado. There are a surprising variety of restaurants and activities within walking distance but if you do walk to town you will have to walk a couple of blocks back up the hill to get home. We were here to ski Eldora and it was very convenient by car. Be aware this is a house and there is no HOA so you may have to shovel the porch stairs and walkway in the winter, but it's not much of a chore. Also, the neighbors are pretty close and while there are plenty of windows to let in lots of light, you may not want to change in the bedroom without drawing the curtains! Our host checked in with us shortly after we arrived to make sure everything was as we expected, which it was. When we left, I forgot a pocket knife with sentimental value and contacted Darren about it. He located my item and shipped it back to me--thank you Darren and thanks for allowing us to enjoy your place!
