Mapleton Hill - Artists Colorful Apartment in Welcoming Home
About this house rental
Situated in Boulder, this attractive house for $165 per night is a fantastic option for your next trip. Coronavirus Update: Reservations cancelled due to this pandemic are fully refundable, until the CDC fully eases restrictions to travel, etc. Susurro is cleaned per local and state recommendations with 1 day vacant between guests. Please note Susurro is entirely independent of the rest of our home, meaning that there is no shared ventilation, which makes Susurro an even safer place for you to stay. We welcome any and all suggestions for keeping you healthy during your stay. Update: January 25, 2023 - we have replaced our beautiful antique stove ( truthfully - that was a challenge to cook on) with a new contemporary inductive electric stove (with convection and air fry oven) due to recent research documenting the health hazards associated with gas stoves and replaced all stove related cooking utensils. We replaced the living room sofa with a Room and Board sleeper couch that is very comfortable. Additionally we will be solar powered with the installation of photovoltaic panels towards the end of February 2023. We have installed an EV charger (Level 2 ChargePoint 48amp) that is fee for the first time use as well. Welcome to Boulder, Colorado...everything you want from a big city, yet it feels like a small town; world-class restaurants and shops, a major university, an abundance of cultural events, a plethora of year-round outdoor activities and lots of music from around the globe. Minutes from downtown Boulder, walking distance to excellent coffee and tea houses, restaurants, bakery, shopping, well equipped grocery store, trails and more. Our artist’s home is located within a quiet, historic residential district known as Mapleton Hill. 'Susurro' - our sunny and light, very private garden/walk-out apartment has a separate entrance and is part of our recently eco-remodeled home originally built in 1910. Our 750 sq. ft. apartment is colorful, eclectically furnished, with hot water baseboard heating, solar powered, all domestic water filtered, cork floors, lots of light, antique cooking stove, custom trim, open layout, split level (with two steps) - living room/dining room/kitchen, hand painted floor, and mosaic tiled bathroom floor. Our home is a “come and borrow a cup of organic sugar” kind of home. Please note - Susurro is exceptionally well insulated however, we live upstairs, we are very quiet and we do not wear shoes inside our home. If you need total silence please reconsider - you will hear soft footsteps but never voices and in eight years we have had only two complaints. 'Susurro' is two blocks away from the foothills of the Rockies with great hiking trails, and the continental divide only a thirty-minute drive away. We are a 30 minute drive to Denver; 30 minute drive to Eldora Mountain Resort, 60 minute drive to Rocky Mountain National Park, and a 1.5 to 2.25 hour drive to Loveland, Winter Park, Breckenridge and Vail ski areas. Boulder has year-round sunshine. The winter season usually brings brief snow storms followed by beautiful sunny days. It's not uncommon to have warm weather in the high 60s-70s in February and March. Late spring and summer offers warm days, wonderful thunderstorms and few airborne pests. Falls are warm with cool nights and some of the most amazing displays of light and color. Well cared for and behaved dogs are welcome. Inspections and Safety: City of Boulder Short Term Rental License RHL-0000634 There have been legitimate concerns raised in the national and international media about the safety and lack of regulation of short-term rentals. Rest assured that: Susurro is up to date in all required inspections (per City of Boulder rental license regulations); has a current rental license (see: http://gisweb.bouldercolorado.gov/agswebsites/pds/rentalinquiry/ - any property with a color-coding has an up to date rental license); has commercial property insurance from American Modern Insurance that covers short-term rentals; and Susurro includes functioning carbon monoxide and smoke detectors as well as fire extinguishers. In addition, each bedroom has City of Boulder approved egress windows and two door exits, in the unlikely event of a fire. Your safety is important to us.

So thankful for this beautiful jewel. From the moment I walked through the gate and down the path I felt like I was in a secret garden! Warm, welcoming, filled with light🌟 Exactly what my daughter and I needed for the week. Dealing with the host Bruce was a joy. He was quick to respond and very helpful when i found out I had a last minute change of plans, needing a one night extension. I would love to stay here again sometime and would highly recommend it to anyone needing a peaceful, clean, quiet place rejuvenate! Dr J

The property was exactly as described and met all of our needs quite well. The bed was comfortable and the rental was clean. The host is an excellent communicator and the check-in/check-out process was easy. The location is excellent. It's close to hiking trails and not far from the downtown area. There was plenty of street parking and we were always able to park in front of the house. The neighborhood felt very safe and we felt safe walking to the downtown area. Highly recommend.

This is a lovely home in walking distance to amazing restaurants and shops on Pearl Street. The home is welcoming and clean with everything you need for a relaxing vacation. It is located on a quiet street in beautiful Mapleton. Bikes can be rented nearby, so we didn’t even need a car for our 10-day stay. The beds are really comfortable, the kitchen is fully stocked, and the outdoor eating area is the perfect place for a morning cup of coffee along with a good book. We definitely plan to return!

Daylight basement surrounded by green!
This place was just as we had hoped: private, comfortable and clean. Tucked into pleasant old Boulder neighborhood. Safe and friendly. Four block walk to Ideal Market grocery and nice local pub. Half mile easy walk to Pearl Street.
Fuss-free. We will be back.

Very nice. A small table, for drinks, between the chair and the sofa would be nice. The stove was a challenge. After the first night, we cooked at our daughter's apartment.

Property was exactly as shown in the listing, and came well stocked with thoughtful extras. Bruce’s communications about the property and check in procedure was thorough and easy. Loved walking to old favorites (Moe’s Bagels, Ideal Mkt, Pearl Street) and new (Santos).

Loved staying here! Great neighborhood, within walking distance to Pearl Street and Whole Foods. The apartment is thoughtfully furnished, with fun bits of art and decor everywhere. Cozy, but enough space, and most things that you need in a kitchen. Despite being partially a basement apartment, it didn’t feel overly dark and there were plenty of windows and lights. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!
