We had our wedding party stay with us the days leading up to our wedding May 23rd 2026. We also had the wedding on the property! It was beautiful and such a perfect place for a large gathering of our wedding party in addition to a full wedding. The house is beautiful and has so many sleeping options. I can't think of a single issue pre- during or post stay! I am so blessed to have found this place and have it as our venue. Thank you Darcy for everything!!
10 / 10Outstanding·May 2026
A wonderful VRBO! Listed for venues and family gatherings. Our time here was for a family gathering. Our family, 13 of us here for family memorial service. Fit us all comfortably. Plenty of kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and gathering spaces with everything you need. From towels to kitchen ware to bedding and seating. It was an emotional 3 days and staying at this incredible and historic VRBO gave us the peace we needed during this time. The owner was amazing to work with, instant replies always to any questions we may have had. All around 100%. If you're looking for charm and serenity and room to relax this is the place. The sprawling landscaping on acreage was so quiet, deer and elk were seen and birds greeted us each morning with our coffee. If you’re looking for a modern whirlwind kind of place, this isn’t it and I’m sure many will appreciate this is not “city” crazy place. We will be back for our next family gathering. Thank you!

WOW! this place was great for our family. Plenty of room, plenty of bathrooms, well stocked kitchen. The views were amazing! We were visited by a herd of elk most mornings when having coffee on the deck. We had a wedding at The Pines, dinners at Charthouse, pizza at Guidos. Close to Highway, easy drive to Golden and Denver. super convenient. The home is full of historic antiques and cool artifacts. Darcy was great whenever I had questions. What a wonderful host. We had absolutely everything we needed. I forgot to mention that this place is absolutely magical at night, the entire property is filled with fairy lights and the star views from the balcony were beautiful, too!

Loved the venue for my wedding! However I wish the owner would clarify all of the rules and restrictions of the venue clearly on the description.
