We traveled from California to visit long time family friends for early Christmas celebration. 16 of us traveled and this home was perfect for us. Layout was such a good fit for 2 different families- each with 3 generations. We had snow one day and sledded down the driveway! Property is beautiful, quiet and supplied with everything you need and plenty of it. From blankets to toilet paper to kitchen supplies. Easy check in and great communication with the property manager. You have full access to the 3 car garage which was super convenient is in the cold weather. Thank you for sharing your home with us! We would love to book again!!

Perfect house for 12 women from out of town to celebrate Halloween. The house was perfect for all our needs. We loved the outdoor area and enjoyed watching it snow from indoors. This property is perfect for any large group of people. Everything is spread out really well.

We enjoyed our stay very much. Had a large family group (15) that ranged from small kids to grand parents. Everyone was comfortable. The house was beautiful with enough space for everyone to find a nice nook. To top it off, the view of the Rockies from the back windows was tremendous.Very nice!

We had a great stay at this property - perfect for our family reunion. The property manager was very helpful and communicative. Not only did the property have room for all of us, but we really appreciated how at home we felt. The kitchen was very well stocked with dishes / glasses / utensils (often we find that properties like this have very limited dishes / glasses and we are constantly doing dishes - not the case here) and there was an abundance of appliances / pots & pans so we were able to cook and settle right in. Felt at home. The property is also set up well so different groups could settle in different areas - no one was stepping on toes. Perfect for our entire family.

This was the nicest, cleanest, most spacious home we have ever stayed in...
The host anticipated EVERY possible need and made our stay there flawless.
It became a game... "I wonder if they have a blender? An ironing board? Tide Pods? A cooler? Wedding Present Wrapping paper??? Yes, yes they do.
The view from every room was perfection. the signage around the house was so very helpful.
We would definitely rent again.

My family and I recently stayed at the Retreat House for a family wedding. It was the perfect size (12 adults and 1 child) and location for us. The wedding was in Castle Rock and a lot of festivities in Centennial - we were about 25-28 minutes from both areas). There was plenty of space for everyone to come together or find a quite spot of their own. We loved the tranquil scenery, the ability to be close to all the things, yet still feel like it was an escape. We had everything we needed in the house. Love that they start you out with a few necessities (dishwasher tabs, coffee pods, etc.) Working with Cristine was wonderful. She was quick to answer any and all questions. We highly recommend staying here!

We stayed here for my son's wedding. Great location, very clean, excellent communication with the property manager and the mule deer were o fun to watch out back!! Loved this rental!!!
5.0
The house is big! It is an old style house that has everything you need and more for a big family gathering. I wish we stayed there longer. Communication with the property managers was easy and quick. The only thing guests have to consider is that the location is not central - you need to drive about 10-15 mins to the closet grocery, pharmacy, etc. It is a beautiful house surrounded by nature. Highly recommend it.

Loved this house. It was wonderful to have our family stay here for our daughters wedding! Well stocked kitchen and house. Had everything we needed (except more time to just relax and enjoy).

This was a great rental. Very clean and beautiful views. The only downside is that the 6 bunk beds had very thin foam mattresses (not memory foam and not regular mattresses). They were too uncomfortable for anyone to sleep in. The other rooms were great!

The host was fantastic, super helpful, very responsive. The house was exactly what we were looking for. Very peaceful and secluded. Saw many deer and other wildlife. There was plenty of land and space between other neighbors. Highly recommend this great Colorado retreat house!

Once again this home was a wonderful experience! This is our second time out to this property for family vacation. The home is very spacious. It is very comfortable with a beautiful view of the mountains from the back porch. Both Spring Break experience and Summer experience were great, our family had an awesome time together!

We loved our stay…we were here for softball tourney and found this house that would fit multiple families. The space in the house was perfect…plenty of room in the basement for kids to hangout and plenty of room outside for everyone to hang out and play games. The house offered several games which was welcomed plus we brought som me of our own. We cooked pretty much everyday and there was the perfect amount of cooking pots and pans and bowls! We saw deer daily on the property which was awesome to see. We will definitely try to book this house every year going forward for the next 3 summers!

We stay at the property over Easter weekend and it was truly amazing with more than enough room with 3 finished levels. Our group of 14 loved the outside deck and views and the kiddos loved hanging out in the basement during the dark hours.
I highly recommend this place for large groups!

The property is large enough to easily handle my group of 8. Parker is a very nice city with many options for food and entertainment.

I had originally booked the retreat house for my brother's 40th birthday getaway. The original booking was not confirmed and we had to look elsewhere. However, after our second booking fell through, I made another attempt to book the retreat home as I really needed a place that would house 20 people (ended up being 16 in the end). I was so grateful the second time was successful.
Cristine is a fabulous property manager. She did a great job keeping in touch with me throughout the process. Knowing we were from out of town, she even emailed me a pdf file containing sites to see, restaurants to visit and other things to do locally. It was a big help. When it came time for our trip, I had the address and code to the house in my vrbo inbox. It was a seamless process and we got to the home without issue.
The home itself is immaculate, spacious and just so peaceful. The pictures does not do it justice. You have to be there to see it. There was just so much room to roam. The bedrooms are spacious and were neatly made. All of the sheets for each of the bunk beds were packaged neatly into plastic containers. There were plenty of blankets, couches, tv's, games, movies, and so on to keep us entertained. Anything and everything we needed was laid out or easy to find. The carpet well cleaned and soft underneath our feet.
We decided to purchase plastic ware and foam plates to cut down on cleaning time but if we didn't, there would have been plenty of plates, silverware, and glasses to accommodate a large group. I can't say the same for other places I've stay at where there was a number of us. There were two refrigerators and a chest freezer in the home which allowed us to fill it with plenty of food for our stay. The grill outside on the deck had 2 full propane tanks, cleaned and ready to go.
My favorite part of the home was the back deck. It was spacious and gave you an awesome view of the Rockies. The sunny weather during our stay allowed many of us to sit out on the deck and enjoy the view. It was just tremendous. We don't get that kind of view living in Michigan.
What a great time we had. I could not have asked for a better place for us to stay while we visited Colorado. Each person that came complimented how nice the home was. I am very grateful things worked out the way they did. Thank you so much for allowing us to stay on such a beautiful piece of property.

Had a wonderful experience. The home was clean, cute decor, and amenities were great. With two living room areas, the home easily provided enough space for 16 adults for four days. And the view on the back porch is stunning.

We thoroughly enjoyed the peace and quiet. Our family had fun cooking, playing games taking walks and just relaxing in the beautiful location. The Wedding was lovely even though small! I was really happy that our side of the family could all stay together.

Our group has used this home 3 years in a row for a small local event. It is beautifully maintained, comfortable, in a great location. The property manager is very communicative. Excellent value if you have a larger group and want to have a home context rather than a hotel.
5.0
This house was more than awesome! We had a large group of 9 adults and 7 children and there was more than enough space. The game room and kids bunk room were a huge hit. The views are priceless from every side of the home. We were welcomed with a decorated Christmas tree and even a smores kit for the kids. Cristine was such a pleasure to work with, she was super attentive and very responsive, best communicator ever! My family and I can't wait to visit again. This was by far the most memorable vacation ever!

Our stay at this beautiful home was perfect. We rented this home to gather out of state relatives and the bridal party for my son's wedding. There was plenty of room for everyone and it felt so comfortable. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The property managers were so kind and easy to work with. This place has everything you'd need for a comfortable stay in almost any situation.
