*Check out all our reviews on other platforms to see how happy everyone has been staying here!*
*5 STAR* I’ve stayed at quite a few places in Colorado and Sarah’s place takes first place by a mile. Felt right at home as soon as I pulled up. The inside is decorated perfect, it’s clean as a whistle and everything is well planned out. The amount of detail put into her place really made our stay pleasant and comforting. The best part of it all was how responsive Sarah was during our stay. She also gave us great recommendations for near by restaurants, stores and activities. I highly recommend her place to all. Can’t wait to come back!"
*5 Star* “I don't think it could get much more peaceful than this! We had such an amazing time on the lake with the paddle boards and Kayaks. Your cabin is amazing!! Thank you for letting us stay in your mountain oasis. We can't wait to be back!”
