The Marmot was beautiful place to stay! Alyce was responsive to any need that arose and her communications were always prompt and timely. Appliances appeared to be new - very clean. We had fun using the induction stove top. The location is in beautiful Palmer Lake and at night you can see the lighted star in the foothill right behind the house - amazing!Thank you for a wonderful stay - we would definitely book again!

Perfect Holiday Getaway

This property was perfect for my husband and I with our Border Collie. The house was very clean and smartly decorated. The in-floor heating and thick walls, meant we didn't have to run the heater much at all. The nieghborhood was quiet and perfect for taking our dog for a walk. We loved everything about our stay and hope to be able to stay there again.

Clean, well-equipped property

Pristine new construction with numerous custom features. The well-equipped kitchen, king-sized bed, washer and dryer, and walk-in shower were ideal for our needs. The owners were responsive and accommodating. Adding a handrail to the flagstone stairs and a thicker curtain for the sliding door would be nice improvements. We were fortunate to see the Palmer Lake Star lit one evening.

Family vacation

The marmot cabin was adorable and in a great location with a view - it is in a neighborhood with a lot of dogs barking. It wasn't ideal for our baby to sleep due to lack of AC and darkness, but would be perfect for just my husband and I!

Peaceful

Great little place! Comfortable! The bed and bedding are awesome, thank you so much. No bugs, flies, spiders, yay. We were there on a relatively cool weekend, but still appreciated the fans which are quiet and very pleasant. The patio is a great place for breakfast and relaxing. Patio is covered and there is a bit of grass, as well as beautiful flowers to enjoy. There is a very minimally traveled road in front of house and patio, but the house is higher up than the road and feels like it is farther away than it is. The neighbors dogs are a bit noisy at times. I know that this is being addressed, and it did not deter us from enjoying our stay. We most definitely would like to stay again.

Short summer vacation

Cute, comfortable cabin. The location was very close to restaurants, groceries, trail heads and a small lake as described. We had our dog with us who really enjoyed his first long road trip. The cabin was well suited for the three of us. I would return.

Great experience!

My wife and I really loved staying at this place! It’s a great location and the perfect size for two people to be at for some time. The property was clean and stocked with most things that you would need, and we really loved how custom everything was (warm floors too). The smoke alarm went out of battery during our stay but the proprietor promptly gave us a replacement for it the following day. There were several spiders that made their way into the house during our stay, but this is usually hard to avoid in rural areas like Palmer Lake. Overall we would definitely stay again!
