I cannot say enough good things about the host Toby or the rental. Toby was fantastic. He was very accomodating and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. He was very nice and welcoming. As far as the rental, as advertised. Great location in a very nice neighborhood. This location was walkable to beautiful hiking trails, Pearl Street was a block or two away, and an easy walk to Folsom Field if you're going to a game. Overall, fantastic trip. 5 star plus. I highly recommend this rental to anyone visiting Boulder.

We enjoyed everything about our stay at this comfortable and cozy home. Toby goes above and beyond - from fresh flowers everywhere, to a big bowl of fresh fruit, We appreciated the snacks provided, plus the wine and sparkling water in the fridge. The kitchen was well stocked for the meals we chose to make there. The back porch was a favorite morning spot to enjoy our coffee. Overall, Toby's home was clean, well stocked and communication was top notch. This is a perfect Boulder location and we look forward to visiting again.

Staying here was an absolute delight. Toby was welcoming and left us a wonderful welcome basket of fruit and wine. Very clean and well maintained. Everything was within walking distance and the neighborhood is beautifully eclectic. Hiking is only a short drive away and there is no limit to the selection of restaurants within walking distance. Great home base for a Boulder adventure.

The owner, Toby, has created a comfortable little home-away-from-home. It was just right for myself and my son for a 3-night stay for CU Family Weekend. Perfect location for walking Pearl Street, and an easy 15 minute walk to campus. Toby had the place well stocked, and full of nice plants and flowers.
Thank you,
Tom

Toby is an incredibly considerate host. We were greeted with fresh fruit, treats for my children, and a chilled bottle of white wine! The apartment is peaceful, clean and well appointed, and it’s location to Pearl Street can’t be beat. This was our second time staying here and it was just as wonderful as the first time. We love this place!!

A wonderful place to stay in Boulder with an amazing host
This may be one of the best vacation rentals I've ever stayed at!
The location of this rental is fantastic. We were able to easily walk to Pearl Street for food, shopping, and entertainment. The neighborhood is so charming and relaxing, all while being a stone's throw of Pearl Street and easy driving to big grocery stores like Trader Joes, Whole Foods, Sprouts, and Target.
The house itself is just so lovely and well furnished. Everything was comfortable and just really beautifully decorated. My favorite thing was that everything is labeled. It makes it so easy to find the item you are looking for in the kitchen when all the drawers have clear labels! The garden was also such a delight and it really allowed us to relax and enjoy a few slower dinners on a lovely patio.
Finally, Toby is such a warm and amazing host. The check in process was clear and easy, and we were welcomed in the rental by gorgeous flowers, a bowl of fruit, wine, and fizzy water. It's so thoughtful! Toby was also available for any questions and to give us a warm welcome. It was so nice to chat with him and get recommendations in town. We all also enjoyed the piano music coming from next door.
Don't hesitate to stay in this rental, the property and the host are one of the best you can find anywhere!

The property was just what we were looking for. It is just a couple of blocks off of Pearl Street in a quaint neighborhood. Great restaurants and local shopping are within an easy walk. The property is a perfect size for a couple and we enjoyed the beautiful weather and a late afternoon drink on the fenced in private back patio. Our host, Toby was very helpful with suggestions for places to eat and good hikes to try. He had a nice fruit bowl, snacks and bottle of wine waiting when we arrived. We enjoyed talking with him and he was available when we had any questions.

I wish we could give this place more than 5 stars. From the moment we booked it, Toby was a warm and welcoming host and great to communicate with. When we got there, the place exceeded our already high expectations. It was the absolute perfect place to stay for a trip to the Boulder area. We used it as the home base for time spent in Denver and Rocky Mountain National Park. We have two young children and not only did Toby go the extra mile to make sure they were comfortable but he left little check in treats for them that made them so excited to be there. It was a wonderful home away from home and we will definitely stay there again when we return to the area. You cannot beat the location and comfort. So much better than staying at any hotel. I would recommend this place to anyone traveling to the area. My only regret is not staying longer. It was so difficult to leave but we will return as soon as possible.

If I could give 10 ⭐️ stars - I would. Toby is the most gracious and warm host, setting the stage for cozy stay in Boulder. Toby welcomed us in person and with fresh flowers, wine and fruit. Conveniently located right off Pearl, we walked to restaurants and shops, and had easy gorgeous drives from Estes Park to Boulder, and to Red Rocks, Golden and Denver. The backyard is so tranquil and beautiful, and we could not have been happier with our choice!!! An added bonus, Toby is a classical composer pianist and we were lucky to be serenaded by his amazingly beautiful 🎶 music! Thank you, Toby!

The Perfect Boulder Stay
Toby was the most generous and gracious host we’ve ever happened upon. His home is beautiful with a lovely outside area in an unbeatable location and he had stocked it with fresh fruit and flowers, and other special treats, and even hid treats for my children under their pillows! Toby also gave great advice regarding places to go and things to do. He’s just a really great guy and we loved staying at this property. If I could give it 10 stars, I would.

I was in town for the CU graduation. I wanted some place close to Pearl. After searching long and hard. I chose this place. Toby was so easy to work with. I arrived to welcome notes on the door and in the kitchen, fresh fruit and lots of fresh bouquets of flowers. It was like I was visiting family.
Parking was super easy. I had a few people over and Toby offered extra chairs and tables. He went out of his way to make me feel right at home. If I ever return, this will be my first lodging choice!
