Excellent Visit!

Very fine and well cared for home, splendidly located and outfitted. The roads are quite narrow and curving, as one would expect in a mountain setting. Good nearby restaurants although parking can be challenging. We brought our small border terrier and she too had a fine time. Top recommendation.
Atop Whiterock Mountain. Wonderful views. Really recommended.

Wedding at Old Edwards

The house was a perfect size for 5 adults attending a wedding at Old Edwards. It was clean and had everything we needed for our weekend trip. It's in a great location, close to downtown and the venue space. Our host checked in with us on the first day to make sure we were doing good and had everything we needed. We'll definitely save this home for future stays!
