Perfect weekend getaway!

This lovely two-bedroom home in old town Ft Collins met our needs perfectly. Clean, well decorated accommodations with a back patio that suited us well for morning coffee and conversation. Checkin and checkout were simple and no need existed to call the host. We just went and enjoyed! I would absolutely book this place again. Thank you to our hosts!

Just what we were looking for

The word lovely keeps coming to mind. I just loved it. It has so much charm and is very comfortable to stay. It is an old home with lots of character, while still having lots of closet space and room to stretch out. It is so nicely decorated and the furniture is comfy. It will be our go-to place when visiting Fort Collins.The hosts were great!

Charming home

My husband, adult daughter and I stayed here while visiting my son at CSU. The location was great - we could walk to College Ave and all the great shops/restaurants there. The house was spacious, clean and comfortable & we loved the sun porch. Towels were super fluffy and the beds were very comfortable. The host was communicative and we had no issues to report. We would definitely stay again!

Weekend Getaway in FoCo

The house was clean and comfortable with a nice, updated bathroom and comfortable beds. Lots of windows made it bright and airy. It is close enough to town that we were able to walk. Shannon was great to work with and really made an effort to make sure everything was great, and it was! I definitely recommend this house to anyone visiting Fort Collins.

Love this historic house and neighborhood

First off Shannon the owner is amazing. She left us treats and fresh fruit. The house has everything thing you need and is very clean. We had an extra special bonus, baby hummingbirds still in their nest in the pine just in front of the door! You can also walk to Butterfly Cafe for breakfast:)

A perfect, cozy and welcoming place

We were so pleased with our four nights in this century-old home. Such a great location and a quiet, restful setting. Much attention to thoughtful details made it so easy to immediately feel at home. The bed was very comfortable, the towels thick, the kitchen carefully stocked, great coffee provided for the coffee maker, and some snacks provided. The dark makeup wash cloths, extra blankets and abundance of windows were additional features. We will welcome a return visit for sure. Parking was so easy and convenient.

First time booker, user for an out of state visit with daughter at school.

What a truly wonderful experience for the first time using/booking/staying using Vrbo! Traveled from Pa to visit a few days with daughter at Colorado State. The ease of viewing & booking our rental with Vrbo was top notch! The home was adequately reprented online, was extremely clean and our host, Shannon, was in constant communication via email with me during our entire stay, in case there was anything needed. Check in/out instructions were provided 24 hrs prior to arrival/departure. Rates were extremely comparable & staying in a rented home vs a hotel was a much more enjoyable experience overall! All appliances in working order & host installed new AC unit due to excessive heat in the area prior to our stay. Hubby & I couldnt have asked for a more positive experience and we will definitely be back! Thanks again!!!
