Hreat time at lake view casa

Oir family had a great time at this property. There were 5 of us who fit comfortably. It was very convenient to our rocky mountain adventure. Even with it being the 4th weekend, roads were not crowded and manageable. With the heat, the house stayed cool enough for comfortable rest. The main floor was were we hung out the most.

Fantastic getaway spot

This property is absolutely lovely and so well situated. Attention to detail throughout. Well coordinated decorative touches and so very comfortable. From the couches to the oversized recliner to the fluffy towels - it is ideal for a vacation. And what a view you get every day. Location perfect for water events and within an hour of Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park.

Family Christmas visit

We stayed for a long weekend to visit family for Christmas. Appreciated how spotlessly clean the house was, and we enjoyed the deck and views. We all went for a beautiful hike from the front door! Would definitely stay again. Had everything we needed and check out was a breeze. Thank you!

Lake view casa

This was a great property for our family. We usually camp at horsetooth, but the weather has not been on our side. There was plenty of room for all of us (including 2 babies) without feeling like everyone was on top of each other. Each room has a form of cooling (air conditioner unit or swamp cooler). The views are amazing! Shayna was extremely responsive and went above and beyond to make our stay great!

Amazing view

We checked in at night and the driveway was a little steep and scary. The house is really nice and comfortable. The decks offer a beautiful view of the water and beautiful red hills. The kitchen is great with everything we needed. The only thing that was a little disappointing was the lower level. There was no pool table as stated in the house description and not really a great place to hang out. Wouldn’t sleep down there either.

Great Lake House

We were in Ft Collins for parents weekend at CSU to spend time with our son and his friends. We did not want to stay in a hotel, so we found this gem on VRBO. The house was perfect for our family. The house is well stocked with all the kitchen essentials for cooking meals. The house is spacious has a great living room with a big tv, 3 bedrooms with comfortable beds and 2 bathrooms. The view of horsetooth reservoir from the front deck was beautiful. Our only input is the basement had a weird smell to it. Not a big deal, just an observation. We will stay here again and would recommend anyone looking for a great place to stay on the lake and near ft collins, give this house a try.

The host did inform us about the air conditioning, and all the things we had to do, but honestly if we know how hot that house was going to be we would have canceled. Also the bathtubs are so slick very easy to fall in not safe they need to make changes.

Lake vacation

We very much enjoyed our stay at the lake house. The views were amazing and the closeness to the marina was great. The kitchen was very well stocked. The 6 of us had plenty of room. The only complaints would be that there was no soap in the bathrooms for the showers and we had to buy it at the grocery store. Second- the house doesn't have central air and all the bedrooms got very hot. The free standing unit wasn't able to cool the house off. We would definitely stay again but just not in the heat of the summer.
