    Directions were difficult to understand, follow google maps, not what host provides. Couldn’t walk in bare feet in the cabin. No extra blankets for the hide-a-bed, just a bottom sheet. Kitchen was well stocked, very clean. Woke up to no water pressure, host responded quickly but repair person was not available till the next day. We were unable to use the bathroom shower, no drinking water. Creek was barely a trickle.

    We enjoyed this cozy cabin with great access to parks, trails, Golden and the Denver area.while in the area for a concert at Fiddlers. The cabin had all the necessities, was clean, and easily became ‘home’ away from home. I would definitely stay here again.
