Fort Collins, Colorado
The WestSide Cottage (Larimer Co. STR Lic #21-ZONE3177) has a lovely, rural feeling situated on a couple acres surrounded by old trees and small horse properties, yet just a short walk to City Park 9 Golf Course, Sheldon Lake and the City Park pool. Close to Old Town, breweries, The Discovery Center and the new CSU Canvas stadium, the Poudre Canyon. The Cottage is a quaint and cozy 3 bedroom farmhouse.
Enjoy our spacious and relaxing patio! There's lots of seating to enjoy an evening under the stars with the fire pit, and string lights. The large gas grill will help you attain grill master status. Dine al fresco, at the patio table or enjoy your morning coffee in the sunshade, while stretching out on the chaise lounge. We continue to work on out backyard space incorporating unique yard art, special planting areas and interesting vignettes.
The kitchen is well equipped for hosting a family dinner or friends for the game. You can eat in every night every night if you like with plenty of room to cook up family favorites or try new recipes together. We've had many families enjoy a Thanksgiving feast and Christmas dinner right here at The Cottage.
The coffee bar features flavored syrups, regular and decaf coffees, 10 kinds of tea and cocoa and natural Stevie sweeteners. Wake up and brew up some morning joe. We offer premium coffees, or relax on the living room chaise with a soothing cup of herbal tea.
The dining table expands to host 10, the patio seats 8 for meals and you can take your coffee on the covered front porch while keeping your pup plays in the large fenced yard so you'll have plenty of space to accommodate.
Frozen beer glasses await your arrival and coffee for the morning too.
Lots more outdoor space awaits you on our large front porch. The front yard is fenced offering a great space for your dog to play and get exercise.
Our beds get RAVE reviews. They are the comfiest. Our bedding is all cotton, all the time. We simply won't compromise. Not only do we believe cotton is the most comfortable, it cleans up the best, and without doubt, it helps us keep plastic out of our oceans.
You will check yourself in with the digital keypad on the back door adjoining the parking area. We are close by and available should you need a thing, otherwise, you probably won't see us.
We happily accept PET GUESTS. The cost is $75. per pet, per stay.
Our neighborhood is has a rural feel but you are still just a few blocks from City Park, the golf course, Sheldon Lake, the City Park Community pool, King Sooper's grocery, Campus West area full of cafes, shops and entertainment.

Fort Collins is located in beautiful northern Colorado at the mouth of the Wild and Scenic Poudre Canyon as well as access to Colorado Hwy 34 to Rocky Mountain National Park. If you haven't rambled the Wild and Scenic Poudre Canyon (national designation), you are missing some of the most beautiful country in the state.
Northern Colorado has abundant hiking, biking, fishing, rafting, kayaking, camping and scenery. Spring Creek, Trail, Cathy Fromme Natural Space, Poudre River Trail, BobCat Ridge Open Space, Devil's Backbone Nature Trail, Horsetooth Mountain Recreation Area and Reservoir, just above Fort Collins offers all varieties of water sports.
Fort Collins brews 70% of the state's micro brew beer including nationally renown New Belgium and O'Dell. Additionally, we have several spirit distillers such as Copper Muse and Spring 44 in the area.
We say the WestSide Cottage is "kinda country, right in town" so you may see wildlife on property...deer, fox, raccoon, bobcat, rabbit. Enjoy!
PLEASE, if you require central air conditioning, do not book our property.
We have a free-standing unit in the living room and large fans in every room. This keeps the house pretty cool however, this is not the same as central AC and you will not be able to turn it down to 62 degrees.
Since it gets very cool at night here in Colorado, windows are often opened at night even with central AC. We realize our situation does not meet everyone's needs however and want to be very clear about the situation. We would rather miss your booking than have unhappy guests.

Trip was great and the house was comfortable for my brother and I who were in town for a football game. It’s an old home that has lots of character and privacy, I wouldn’t recommend this place with kids as it would be noisy and cramped. For couples and adults, it was a great spot. Just a few miles from City Center with a country feel, no complaints and the internet and smart TV gave us no issues. I would stay here again!
Loved everything about our stay. Just get rid of the slippery rugs, without rubber backings. My brother slipped and fell with the one in hallway to bathroom.
This trip was planned with my cousin, 2 nieces, and my elderly pup. Julia welcomed us to her property, including the dog, and was quick to address any questions. We loved the cottage and the location! The fully stocked kitchen meant we could prepare some meals. The firepit and patio were enjoyable for evening wind down. It was great to have full laundry as well. I would recommend this property to other groups of women planning a trip. Keep in mind there is only one bathroom, so couples groups might not fit as well.
This was a great little place to stay while I was in town surprising my daughter. Communication was great and everything was just as described. I'll stay here again!
Great place on the edge of town. Fenced yard for the pups was awesome. Convenient location, close to everything. The house was adorable, clean and comfy. We had a great trip and appreciated such a hassle free place to stay with the pugs. Thanks Julia!
Everything was as advertised! House was clean and well maintained. Close to town while being able to feel like you're far away. I will definitely be staying there again!
This property is several miles from Old Town/CSU and en route to Horsetooth Reservoir. It is an older house. Outside landscaping was overgrown and the surrounding property is a VW bus graveyard. But do not let that dissuade you from staying. The inside was clean, kitchen was well stocked, beds were comfortable, portable AC cooled most of the house, and nice touches for guests were evident such as coffee syrups, extra toothbrush, and ample paper products. The best feature was the patio, with a nice grill, that allowed a fun gathering of friends and family. If you need space, enjoy the outdoors, and do not want to be in the hustle and bustle of FoCo, I would consider this property. The property manager is super responsive and will address any of your questions or concerns.
The house was cozy and perfect for us.., close to all the things we wanted to do but still with a country quite feel. We enjoyed the back patio and fire pit. The yard was just right for our small dogs, and we are so thankful we did not have to leave the fur babies behind. The AC in the living room, along with the fans, kept the temp comfortable. Wifi worked great which was appreciated as my cell mobile hot spot was slow and spotty. Julie our host was great and the communcation was easy. Overall it was a perfect spot for one last summer get away and we would love to come back someday!
Did not spend much time there but beds were very comfortable and manager was very responsive.
Very welcoming. Loved working with Julia.
Very positive experience. We loved everything about this charming property. We had everything that we needed and then some. Our host, Julia, was fabulous and she was a great communicator and very efficient. We will definitely stay here again.
Loved our time at the cottage, it was everything we wanted it to be.
We had a lovely time at the cottage. Will stay there again next time in Fort Collins
My friend and I stayed here for a week. The house is a Shabby Chic Cottage with lots of character. Our host made sure we had everything we needed. Best place to eat and site see! Awesome location! We were able to get anywhere we wanted in about a hour time. What a wonderful time we had here.?
My husband, adult daughter, 15 pound pug, and I were on vacation and stayed 7 days at this property. The fenced-in yard was a huge plus for us as we could let Zoey out without a leash. The beds were very comfortable and gave all us a good night's sleep. The kitchen is fully stocked. Having a washer and dryer and off-street parking were must-haves for us. We especially appreciated the quiet neighborhood. Our host was very gracious and responded to our texts immediately. The property is extremely clean which was greatly appreciated. We are very pleased with our stay.
It was a great place and location for the wedding. The owner was amazing in checking in with us and making sure all was going well. It was a great stay.
We enjoyed our relaxing and comfortable stay at West End Cottage. Julia was available via text with any questions. The outside space is great with a fire pit, BBQ, shade sail, sunshine, and stars. The inside space is very clean and comfortable. The beds were comfy. The kitchen is excellently stocked. Hope to stay again one day. For a table now would be a good time
Cute cottage in quiet neighborhood. Enjoyed the front porch and the sounds of birds. Comfy bedrooms. easy to communicate with caretaker, Julia.
The location is in a very quiet neighborhood. The home is older but has wonderful, unique decorations. We enjoyed our stay.
The owner of the home was very helpful and responded to all messages. The home is nestled in a great place, close to downtown Ft. Collins and close to access the mountains by vehicle. The downfall that friends and myself agreed upon were the house needed much work done to it. The outside of the home had landscaping needs, siding on the house needs to be fixed, and the propane tank for the gas fire pit was not very good, did not produce heat or flames on two times while we stayed. Other than a few needed update of cosmetics on the outside, the cottage was great stay.
This was a wonderful stay. Coffee bar was just one of so many clever comfortable touches. Great communication and such kindness.
Enjoyed the patio and the experience of renting a house vs. a hotel. The coffee bar was awesome!!! Quaint and cozy, clean white comfy bedding and beds. Julia was awesome when we arrived !
Wow, what a treat it was to stay here. The cottage upon entering is one, not what you'd expect from the pictures-it's better. Julia has done an outstanding job providing visitors with everything and anything you'll need for a stay. The cottage is very cozy, lots of space and has a very large fenced yard for pups to run around in. Which I had both of mine in tow. You're minutes from town, the University and hiking trails. This location worked perfectly for us as we were in town for our sons graduation from CSU. Thanks again Julia for providing such a fantastic space.
