Perfect home to celebrate USAFA graduation

This was a beautiful, private location to celebrate USAFA graduation. The home was perfect for our large family and a short distance to the academy. Gwen was an amazing host and made our stay seamless. She provided everything we could possibly need. The entertaining area, both inside and out, had spectacular views and was perfect for spending time together. We hope to return to this special home again.

Amazing views & an Amazing Owner

Our family met together with 8 adults and 6 kids. The owner had enough booster seats and pack n plays for the littles and board games and video games for the older kids. Plus the kitchen was packed with everything needed and a little more. Lots of local hiking. Great location. I guess the best word for this place is WOW!

Fur- Ever Bach Party

We had the most fun staying in this beautiful home for my daughters bachelorette party. From the beautiful snow to the sunny days...this house was perfect! The space was wonderful for the 13 of us. Perfect space for the girls and the their fun moms! I have booked many VRBO homes for family events and this is by far the most well stocked, guest friendly, and "host thought of everything" home! Book your stay today!

Beautiful House

Such a wonderful house! Gwen was a gracious hostess and so easy to work with. We had the unexpected gift of snow and our grandkids loved it!We were coming to Colorado mainly to go to a Broncos game but we wanted to see some of the other sights while we were there. The location of this house was an easy drive to Denver(Broncos game, Golden, Red Rocks), Pike's Peak, Colorado Springs.We hope we get to stay here again someday!

Wedding week for our daughter!

We could not have picked a better location/house for this week. The beauty and openness of the home worked out perfectly for 8 bridesmaids and both the moms to get hair and makeup done for the wedding. We were only a quick drive to Spruce mountain ranch, the wedding venue. We were able to have the rehearsal brunch at the house. For a very reasonable fee we were able to use all the owners, tables, chairs and tablecloths. All the beds were super comfortable which made it all the better. This week could not have gone more perfectly and I would highly recommend this property to anyone who would want to stay! We made so many great family memories… it will never be forgotten ❤️

I can't say enough good things about this house - the pictures are exactly as you will find it. The property the house sits on is a dream - so quiet and relaxing. The real gem is Gwen though! She will go above and beyond to make your stay perfect. We were hosting a small rehearsal dinner and forgot to bring cloth napkins for the event. Gwen went out of her way to bring us some to use. The event was perfect and all our guests could not stop talking about this house! Again - 5 stars!

Second Time and Won't Be the Last!

This is the second summer we have spent a week at Gwen's property in Larkspur. We love everything about this house. The master being on the top floor (great privacy being grandparents), the main floor and it's expansive kitchen/family room leading out to the balcony, and the bottom floor - a perfect set up for our married children and their children. Gwen has an attention to detail in every area of renting from her including a nicely stocked pantry, toiletries and cleaning supplies. Can't wait to go back next year.

Perfect Getaway

The house was gorgeous and equipped with everything we needed and more. The view from the porch was amazing any part of the day. We relaxed by the firepit and had a drink while listening to music. We had a great time watching the wildlife roam the property and even saw a double rainbow off the back porch. Gwenevere was very helpful and responsive with any questions we had. Would definitely stay here if it is available.

Stunning home - will be back.

We were overly satisfied with this home- absolutely would stay again. The amenities were awesome - felt more like a home than a VRBO. Everyone fit comfortably in the five bedrooms and we had more than enough space in the kitchen for everyone to comfortably interact. The deck and surrounding views were gorgeous. The outdoor furniture/fireplace area felt like an additional room off the kitchen- indoor/outdoor living! The bunk rooms were spacious and had more than enough room for teenagers. The mattresses were comfortable throughout the home and bedding was soft. Gwen checked in on us during our stay, we felt very taken care of.

USAFA GRADUATION STAY

Gwen's house is beautiful. It comfortably housed our large group, and the views are stunning. The house has everything you need to cook and serve a large group. It also has several gathering spaces to allow your group to spread out. It took roughly 20 minutes to get from the house to the main campus. Entrance from the North Gate was extremely easy as the exit for the academy puts you right at the gate, and not much traffic is coming from the north. On a side note, if you are coming for graduation, staying the night on Monday is highly recommended. The Superintendant's reception on Monday was a highlight of our week. Also, being there early helps you get settled in before what will be a very busy week.

Simply Spectacular!

Gwen is an amazing host and we enjoyed every minute of our stay! The house features a great floor plan with plenty of room to spread out. The house is also fully stocked with all sorts of kitchen equipment and spices to easily prepare a great meal and tons of board games downstairs to keep kids entertained. We enjoyed exploring the trails up the hill, hanging out on the deck listening to music, and lounging in the hot tub watching the snow fall. This is truly a special place to spend quality time with family or friends!

Our wedding day was perfect here!!

Our stay was AMAZING! Gwen had everything I could have thought of (including a fully stocked pantry). We got married on the property with our micro-wedding and it was everything I could have dreamed of. It genuinely made me sad to leave, the house is adorable and was great for our wedding party & family to stay with us, and the pictures definitely don’t do the scenery justice. We went to Sandstone Ranch open space for private vows and it was perfect because it was only 5 minutes away. The property had everything I dreamed of for my wedding day and hopefully we can come visit sometime again! We also had a 6 point buck come up to us during our wedding reception which we thought was super awesome. My husband also loved that he could go for a hike in the back yard before we started our big day. 10/10 recommend
