Historic retreat with panoramic view walk to downtown
About this house rental
Situated in Central City, this attractive house for $250 per night is a fantastic choice for your next trip. This property was built in1869 and was the St. Luke’s Hospital for a short time. It was in terrible shape when we purchased it so unfortunately nothing could be salvaged in the interior of the house but most of the exterior is original. We purchased the home in 2003 and completely remodeled the interior with all modern conveniences. There are three comfortable bedrooms. The bathrooms are one full with a claw foot tub and a half bath off the master bedroom. The kitchen is fully equipped that any cook would enjoy. The large patio outside has a great sitting area to relax and appreciate the view or you can sit on the front porch among the Aspen trees. The house is located on a quiet dead end street but you are only a 5 minute walk to the Casinos or Opera House in Central City. There is off street parking which is a huge plus since the roads are narrow and steep in places. Loveland and Eldora Ski resorts are a 30 minute drive. But be sure to see if Central City is having any of their fun festivals going on by just going to their website for a calendar of events and you can walk down to them and enjoy with no driving hassle. Please be respectful of our home. We have beautiful antiques and want your stay to be amazing. It is not at all a party house and we have neighbors close by.

We came to visit our college aged son and stayed at this house! The place was spectacular, from the cleanliness, comfort of furniture and how well the kitchen was stocked!
We will be back!!

The house was exactly as the listing shows. The roads to get to the house are very steep and basically one lane. They were plowed at any sign of snow so it was no big deal. It was just a little scary for this weak one. It was very beautiful with the snow. My only compliant is the heating and its not really a compliant. The first night the bedrooms didn’t warm at all even though i had the thermostat set to 70. It was 60 when we woke up. We lit a fire in the living room and it warmed the house up. I would suggest maybe getting a couple of space heaters just in case. I think it was too cold outside for the floor heaters to keep up. Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely recommend this place to others.

The house is inviting and cozy. The front porch and the patio were perfect for sitting and drinking coffee in the morning then sipping wine in the evening. We actually decided to spend an evening just watching "chick flix" because we were enjoying the house so much. The beds are comfortable with extra blankets if needed. The streets are very narrow in Central City and getting to the house made me a bit nervous so I would recommend getting there before dark when you arrive. No problem once you are more familiar with the street. So much history in the area and the locals are very inviting. It was a great away weekend for just the girls.

This was a lovely, comfortable home — well equipped and with a spectacular hillside view.

Very comfortable, much more spacious than I thought it was from photos. Mornings out on the patio with a cup of coffee were my favorite times. A great rental for our small family group, and loved all the cute antique touches. Only issue we had was navigating the narrow roads and parking with our F350 - luckily a neighbor stepped out to help us. If you're looking for an alternative to the casinos while you're in Blackhawk, this is a great option.

Amazing!
This property is why you VRBO! The detail taken into this property is far beyond what I expected. It was like staying in a museum - yet comfortable and cozy! Stunning property. Great location. If you love history.. then this is the place for you! It was amazing. I don’t know where they found all of the trinkets and historic items that around the house - and if you look closely there are little trinkets hidden all over and even outside. My favorite being the tiny flower pot by the entrance. Communication was excellent. Check in was seamless. We had a wonderful time for my husbands 50th birthday trip. I would not suggest people with small children stay here as there are many historical items that I am guessing are irreplaceable if broken. Again - great property. Great location. If I find myself in the area again - I will definitely stay at this property!

The property was nice, and we would rent it again. Other than we ran out of T/P (only one roll per bathroom and no spare rolls anywhere!) and no foil or saran wrap, the home was relaxing and plenty spacious enough for our family. This is a small town, with no large stores nearby. Overall, our stay was a good experience.

I booked this property as a last minute surprise trip for my parents and the listing lived up to everything that was listed and then some. The claw bath tub was a nice surprise. The views from the two patios was great and my parents would wake up early and sit on the porch watching for new birds. The property is close to all the casinos and there is one just down the hill. All in all I would highly recommend this property and the owner was very responsive. I will definitely look and booking here again if I'm in the area. The only con if there is one is that I could see it being difficult getting to the property in the winter but I could be wrong as I don't know how the plowing is there.

This was such a nice house to stay in. We immediately felt home-y vibes, and the antiques throughout added a fun touch. A great place for friends and family to stay (not the best place for kids however).

I can't say enough good things about this place and the owner Tracy. WOW!! She was beyond accommodating and responsive to our needs especially during Snowmaggedon 2021 when our flights were cancelled twice and we had to scramble to make arrangements. She went above and beyond. When we finally were able to make the trip, we were greeted by a beautiful historic home, VERY clean, comfortable and inviting. The view from the porch is amazing! Pictures don't do it justice. We got up early several mornings to watch the sunrise. We also saw a red fox pass by several times just outside the patio door. It snowed every day while we were there (March 21-24) but the roads were plowed regularly so no problem getting in & out. We loved everything about the home, the antiques, the history books, and the wood burning fireplace. Thank you Tracy for sharing your family's home with us. We will be back again in the future.

Interesting Historic Property
The property is located on a hillside and the roads are a little tricky on winter days but quite manageable with an SUV. The house itself is very well furnished and has a lots of objects of historical interest. You could spend hours indoors just looking through all of their collection. The rooms are beautifully furnished and decorated. The main bath has a clawfoot tub which can be challenging for older people-just something to keep in mind if you are travelling with seniors. The town is just a short walk and has many historical properties and the casinos are a draw as well. I would love to visit this home again in summer.
