Great hosts, lovely property
We made reservations here as a last- minute change of plans, and really wanted to spend family time. This place was perfect for that, with an indoor hot tub, a patio, and a great family room area, where we played games, and watched a movie together. The hosts were amazing and really great at communicating. Loved it.

The Exceptional Blue Bear Den experience
I arrived a bit late due to a unforeseen circumstances but Lee did everything to accommodate me . The neighborhood is excellent with many options to eat shop and near downtown nightlife. By far the best spot I have ever stayed during my multiple trips to Denver. I recommend strongly to do your logging with them .🏔️😎😍☀️✅

Best Den in Denver!
Jackie and Lee were amazing hosts and the property was even more amazing than the photographs. A separate driveway provided ample room for both SUVs in our party. The entrance is off the back of the house and feels very private. There's a room for your skis and boots on a porch, then you enter to a staircase to foyer. Leave your shoes off, the carpet is divine!
The kitchen had everything you needed, even some water and beverages in the fridge. Jackie made some delicious cookies for us. And they custom made a sign for our trip out to see NIN!
The bedrooms all had flat-screen TVs with streaming apps. Beds were comfy with nice pillows and linens. Bathrooms were awesome and super clean.
DO NOT MISS THE HOT TUB! Such a great way to relax your muscles after a long day out in Colorado.
We enjoyed getting to meet our hosts. They were very funny and eager to make our stay as nice as possible.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Extremely clean, well-lit, excellent location with 25 two minutes away. Super cute large patio with lots of seating, firepit, and festive lights. Hot tub available in a private addition in back yard. Private yard and patio, private driveway. We received a personalized note with home baked cookies on arrival. The place is beautifully decorated, updated, comfortable, and very well-stocked with everything we needed and more including complimentary drinks in the frig!

Comfortable and Helpful Hosts
This was a great property, cozy and clean. It did not have a stove top, which I was expecting but I may not have ready the amenities closely enough. So that is on me. Super comfy beds, cozy environment.
