Great weekend

We were there for our daughter’s gymnastics meet at University of Denver. We loved this location because it was close enough to everywhere we needed to go and close enough to everywhere we wanted to go! The home is beautiful! Thank you for having us

Great Family Retreat With Amazing Views

Perfect property for our family vacation. The house is well stocked for cooking, including seasoning. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of towels for our entire group. Great location to take in rafting, hiking and gold panning. Communication was over and above.

Family Gathering

Wonderful location, peaceful surroundings, wildlife, and beautiful creek sounds. Property large enough for a family of 10 to have their own space and privacy. Friendly owners who graciously answer guest questions. Homey and ready for family gatherings.

Great week at 3 Owls Retreat

Beautiful property, well laid out for our three generation family, allowing us space to all be together and private space when we wanted some. Located just 5 miles up the Mount Evans (Mount Blue Sky) Highway from Idaho Springs, close to all the attractions/activities the area has to offer. Teenage grandkids, 40-something kids and we had a wonderful time.

Amazing place!

We loved our stay at this property. The property was even better than advertised and is close to so many outdoor activities. We saw lots of wildlife around the house and enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere. Close to the town of Idaho Springs with lots of good restaurants and shopping. We will definitely be back!

Lovely retreat in a great location

This house was immaculate and so spacious for our group of 16. We had a wedding at Black River Ranch and so the location was perfect for what we needed. Super peaceful and wish we could have stayed longer, it was truly an oasis!

A wonderful getaway!

The cabin is just as pictures depict! A roomy cabin on a beautiful property. The location is remote enough to be away from town and near the mountains, but still a very quick drive into Idaho Springs. We even saw a fox through the living room window - it was awesome!

Perfect Hidden Gem

This property is the perfect blend of easy to get to and out in the middle of nowhere. Our family of 12 stayed 4 nights and found ourselves very comfortable and well accommodated for a group our size. Love the backyard, deck, and kitchen. Definitely would go back again!

Cozy mountain retreat

The house is amazing! There was plenty of space for everyone and purest areas to all hangout together. The wrap around deck is so enjoyable and the yard is equipped with fire pits and yard games. We had the best time.

Peace & Quiet yet close to Idaho Springs

Loved this property and all its amenities. Beds are comfortable, kitchen is VERY well equipped, and lots of space to spread out. The outdoor living area is beautiful and enjoyed watching the Stellers Jay from the deck. The host is very responsive and answered all our questions.

Family Vacation

Loved the location of the rental as you have a lot of options for activities. The house was well stocked with household items. Rooms were wonderful and great for a family vacation for 10. The only negative that we found was the oven seals were terrible. We had to turn up the heat to allow for leakage, Other than the oven issues, the accommodations were outstanding. We would recommend this location to others! We had a great time!

Gorgeous home

We have an amazing time in this beautiful mountain home. We loved cooking in the large kitchen. Rooms were comfortable and our group had plenty of space. We would all stay there again (especially if a hot tub is added). They had fun clues to solve a puzzle around the house which added an extra layer of fun.

Extended family get together

We came in town for a family wedding at the Blackstone Ranch a mile down the road. The location was wonderful, Idaho Springs is an 8 minute drive to wonderful Breweries, coffee shops, and restaurants, and grocery store. But being up in the mountains you feel like you are by yourself. The bedrooms and bathrooms are large clean, and well stocked. Beautiful outdoor space and lots of room to spread out around the home. We enjoyed our trip and recommend this place for large groups or a family vacation.

Simply Lovely

I can’t say enough about this cabin. It was incredibly private and spacious. The kitchen was wonderful and truly designed for those that love to cook. We were a large group and the layout of the cabin was ideal. The steam sauna was also a huge hit. We had great communication with the host. She was very quick to respond and her place was just as described.

Perfect Mountain Getaway

Our group of 11 adults had an excellent stay at Liz’s cabin and more than enough room to spread out during the day and night. Liz was responsive before and during the trip and answered all of our questions. The cabin feels remote and has a beautiful view of the adjacent wilderness but was easily accessible from Denver. We enjoyed lounging by the wood burning stove and cooking in the well-appointed kitchen. When we wanted a change of scenery, the restaurants and stores of Idaho Springs are just a few minutes drive away, as well as many excellent hiking trails. Our group is already talking about a potential return trip!

perfect family retreat

We really enjoyed our time at this cabin. The cabin had everything we needed to make our meals in the kitchen. We enjoyed being able to hook up our phones to the sound system that plays on all levels. The 12 people we had slept comfortably. The views in the morning were amazing. Downtown Idaho springs is like 10 minutes away. It has a yard that the kids played in, very rare for a cabin.The host was a great communicator and reached out to us prior to our visit and responded promptly when I had questions. We highly recommend this place.
