We have a large crew with kids and their partners and grandkids and it is hard to find Western Canadian / mountain VRBOs for 10 people. This place was fantastic for an outing to spend some time in Golden but also spend time directly at the location. The owner was really good at communication and checked in on progress, how things were going, small questions. The property is really fun with a very large green space that has a fire pit in it but the young kids could also ride their bikes in the yard freely while the fire was in another area and yet another group playing cornhole. The structure of it is also perfect for multiple couple or families together as there is a self contained suite adjacent to the main suite that sleeps a decent amount of people so in our case if we wanted to put some younger kids to bed in one spot and socialize in the other, no problem. Highly recommend.

Great communication from Dave. Awesome house in the mountains for our group of 9.

We were very well served by Dave and his home. It has everything that you need… even crocs for going to the hot tub. I would agree that it is a bit tired but very homely and suited us perfectly. It’s in a quiet area a few minutes drive out of Golden with deer all around.

Our stay at Dave's vacation home was a mixed experience. Safety was a major concern due to the slippery, ice-covered paths which caused injuries to our group members. Even with Dave's friendly assistance, this dangerous condition was a letdown. Additionally, the much-anticipated hot tub was a disappointment. Struggling to navigate icy paths to the hot tub, we found it cold at just 30°C, and efforts to heat it failed despite Dave's remote help. The water's excessive foaminess also raised hygiene concerns. Dave’s hospitality and willingness to help was commendable, but safety concerns and the hot tub experience detracted from the overall enjoyment of our vacation. We hope Dave can address these matters for future guests.
