Perfect Spot!

This was such a cute, cozy little place to stay! The little town was lovely. The sound of the river outside my room was perfect with a quaint little place to sit outside and read as well. Penny Hotsprings down the road was a nice find!Will definitely be back!

This is a really nice, comfortable and well equipped condo. The location on the river is very peaceful and relaxing. I really enjoyed sitting out on the patio watching the river go by and also enjoyed sitting out on the front veranda watching the world of Redstone go by. The only reason that I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that the view from the condo is a little disappointing. The Crystal River is literally right outside the window but the view is almost entirely blocked by the laundry building between the condo and the river. Not a huge deal as I spent most time outside but it would’ve been perfect with a nice view of the river from the condo window.

Great base for exploring Crystal River Valley

The Villas are clean and in a great location right in the middle of tiny Redstone. We loved the lawn by the river with Weber bbq and picnic tables. Beautiful setting. Lots of great day trips can be made from Redstone. We would stay again.

Fantastic room in charming town

The Crystal River Villa room was a very delightful stay. It was perfectly clean (I have high standards) and offered what I needed. The back patio area on the Crystal River was inviting and relaxing with its abundant flowers, plentiful hummingbirds, comfy patio furniture, and absolutely amazing view of river and mountain. The room was quiet and other guests were generally not heard. The whole reason I came was to ride a horse for a day at Redstone Stables across the road, don't miss that gem! It was a relaxing stay!

Cozy & Quiet

Clean, cozy and quiet. This is the place to get away and really relax. Gotta make an effort to get connected to the internet -- so why bother? Instead, just sit by the river and watch it roll and take in the surrounding scenery. Or walk over to the Redstone Inn and have a nightcap. All the necessities for a pleasant long weekend. Great rates too!

Girls trip

No exaggeration five stars across the board! Seriously, one of the best Vrbo experiences i've had. What was advertised is what I received amd more. It was a absolute cute and quaint little town, we came a few weeks early, so nothing was really happening. But the adjacent town was booming. Now for the actual property, what a cute little arrangement. Our room was quaint and cozy. It had the basic amenities; a hot plate for cooking a few kitchen must haves and a good size mini fridge. We had a great view from the top floor of the river. It was relaxing and peaceful all hours of the day. The property itself was quiet and calm. We loved the river access right next to the fireplace. A great way to enjoy the sunshine and the views. The property has games and activities to play as well if you need help passing time or even have little ones. The property manager/host was phenomenal. I believe her name was Nicole. She was extremely nice, so understanding and very helpful. Even over the phone you could feel her energy and kindness. She seriously made the experience so easy breezy. Note you will most definitely lose service, but the property does have a landline and okay internet. With that said, Nicole was able to help when we did lose service. Made the Check-in process so easy, manageable and smooth and was there along the way to make the experience top tear. If you're in the need for quiet relaxing getaway with some cool historical facts.This is definitely the place to be.

Beautiful

Very pleasantly surprised by the property! I lived 15 tears in Redstone years ago and this property was decidedly run down at that time. Now, a thorough remodel insures quiet between the walls, WIFI, and cell service. The wood floors, decorating, efficiency kitchen, and tiled bath really upgraded the property. The studio number 9 was small but efficient and Nicole let us move to a bigger room when available. We preferred the first floor rooms. We will stay here again. It was a great value.

Overall it was good. However the listing said there was a cook surface, I was expecting an actual built in cook surface and was disappointed to find only a single burner hot plate which made it difficult to fix meals.

Lovely rental

Redstone is located in my favorite part of the Rockies. It’s easy to get to, but feels secluded. The property was beautiful and extremely well maintained. The rooms are exactly as shown. They are on the small side but have everything you will need for a comfortable and relaxing stay. Most importantly, there is wonderful outdoor space front and back of the property to enjoy. Will definitely stay here again.
