Pleasant stay with beautiful garden
We stayed here while we were visiting Denver for a concert, and we brought our dog along. Coming from a high-plains desert, we don't have any grass; this backyard was our pup's first time running around in grass without a tether on! She loved it so much, and it made us so happy to see her happy.
The carriage house was well-kept, and I felt that we were safe, even while being centrally located in town! There's lots of cafes and restaurants to visit within walking distance, and the abundance of trees along the walk keep you cool even when it's warm outside.
We spent most of our time away, but the time that we spent at the VRBO was very pleasant. Thank you for a great place to stay, it really made our trip!

The Art Studio was just as advertised and very clean. The bed slept great. It was nice to have our own private space to hangout outside by the fire pit or sit on the porch swing. Check in/out was a breeze. Will definitely consider booking again the next time we’re in the area.

Second time staying here - will be back
We had stayed here a few years ago and had a good experience so when we were coming back to Denver, we quickly agreed that we wanted to stay here again. Thankfully the dates were available. Once again, it was a wonderful stay. Centrally located, ample parking for our rental, quick-to-reply host, etc. We travel a lot and this is definitely one of our top VRBO stays.

A Dream
This property was the perfect place, and I have nothing negative to say about it. Perfect cozy space inside, and a backyard of our dreams that was the best chilling spot. Tonia came over to show us how to use the gas fire pit and asked me through the app if we needed anything at all. Wonderful host, and I would definitely stay here again (longer next time!!)

Awesome place for pets!
We had a great stay! I rate my stays based on three things. 1. Good for pets. 2. Location. 3. Cleanliness. This place is 5 stars for all. This is such a unique place and we feel lucky to have found it. The owner is awesome and super attentive. The yard is perfect for dogs and it is a great place to walk them. It has nice landscaping so not a great place for unattended dogs, but for me it was the perfect place. The neighborhood is really neat with a ton of entertainment and dining nearby. This is a great place if you are going to a game at any of the near by sporting venues. Ball arena is like 5 mins away. I would absolutely stay here again.

Artistic, atmospheric, beautiful and clean
This is perhaps the first VRBO I've stayed in, in which the actual space and property and communication with the owner exceeded my expectations.
Tonia has created an artistic haven with all the ammenities. Despite being in the middle of a snow storm, the space was well heated and cozy. I look forward to coming in the spring to see the beautiful backyard. Tonia was available to help me with a few things: an extension cord, TV set up. She is entirely comfortable to be around. I highly recommend this artistic oasis.
