Beautiful Cabin
We really liked the cleanliness of the cabin and our stay was so easy because of the communication from the wonderful host. The location was awesome as well we walked to get on the train and the park was so beautiful across the street. The river was so relaxing to walk by from the cabin as well.

short Review
It worked perfectly for us and was very comfortable and was very well outfitted in the kitchen. Our only minor complaint would be the master bed with a bunk bed above. Kind of un unusual but it worked. communication with the hosts was fantastic so if you had any issue or question, you got an answer immediately.

Working in Colorado
This place was awesome. I was in Colorado working and came upon this place. I am glad I chose to stay here. For the price, you can not beat it. Nice and cozy. Just across the road from an awesome park. I walked the park every morning and it was very relaxing. I strongly recommend anyone staying in the area consider staying here.

Cute little cabin
Cute little vintage cabin in Canyon City. Walking distance to river and historical downtown. Easy drives to white water rafting and Skyline Drive. Clean house, lots of yard. Had everything we needed for 2 night stay!

Great location, cute property
It was clean and comfortable and a short walk to the river and train boarding for the Royal Gorge train. Also walking distance to Downtown Cañon City. Overall very nice place and well cared for. One note, for two adults the bunk bed setup was not the most comfortable but it wasn't awful.

Wonderful dwelling
The park/duck pond was directly across the street and we had an awesome view of the mountains. The home was nice and we especially enjoyed the dining room. The yard was beautiful with a nice set up for enjoying the outdoors as well. Great location for heading to dinner or the mountains. I accidentally left my coat behind and the host got right back to me, and I was able to go pick it up. Would definitely book here again.
