How do I even start this review honestly? This house, and its location is magical. Every single second of every day spent here was amazing. We woke up and saw rainbows, snow falling miles away on the peaks, heard and saw wildlife and farm animals, saw the milky way galaxy, all while feeling right at home in this beautiful house. It is well furnished, looks great, and is comfortable for the entire family. The beds are nice and the showers and hot tub are fantastic. Overall, pretending to live on a ranch in Colorado is a 100% must do, and staying at Josh's house is my number 1 pick out of ALL of Colorado. People in the surrounding town were friendly, and even the people who take care of the house were extremely nice and friendly. Love this house, love the ease of getting in touch with the host, and love the location. Book here and don't look back. You will thank me and yourself. ##### Jalesa R. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Colleen L. 6 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful home in the mountains Our stay here was excellent! A great place to stay to feel like you're off the grid but with all the modern comforts. Downtown Fairplay was only a 15 minute scenic drive away for supplies. Check in/check out was a breeze. The house was immaculately clean and had a lot of nice touches throughout. The kitchen was fully stocked with supplies to make meals and the beds were very comfy, probably the best sleep I've had in weeks. Our group loved this property! It was very private, the only neighbors were the cows grazing in the morning. We enjoyed the stunning sunset walks, and amazing star gazing at night. The area has everything you need for a day outdoors - lots of nearby trails, rivers, and lakes for hiking, kayaking, and fishing. There's a great fly fishing spot right across the street at Tomahawk. The kids in our group want to come back every summer and it was an awesome and much needed escape from Denver, it was very hard to leave. Highly recommended! ##### Colleen L.
