Access to the house was easy, the kitchen was well-appointed, every room was clean - what more could you want!We made breakfasts and packed lunches in the kitchen each day, and found everything that we needed for that. The bedrooms/beds/bathrooms were clean and comfortable. While it wasn't at the top of our list for this home and this stay, we did find the TV in the living room to be great! (It is football season, after all!) We enjoyed meeting the yellow lab Charlie, the welcoming committee for the Moon House. We are all dog-lovers so was fun to play catch with him and just see his happy face when we drove in!All in all, it was a wonderful stay! ##### Rob W.

Quiet area, but close to the wineries & restaurants. The house has a considered touch - if we wanted to cook, the kitchen is well stocked, the bathrooms supplied with oft forgotten incidentals. The lavender epsom salts were a perfect addition to a much needed soak in the tub at the end of a long hot day! The beds were comfy with soft sheets. 10/10 would stay again! ##### Joan N.

We so enjoyed staying at the "Moon House!" As the name suggests, there were little "moon" touches throughout the house from pictures, to a puzzle of the moon and a "Shoot the Moon" game. And, if you wanted to, you could view the real moon through the house telescope. What fun! The hosts, Chadwell and Carissa, were responsive and timely and clear in their communications. They made us feel so welcome without being intrusive and their dog, Charlie, welcomed us and checked on us daily. We hated to leave to come home. If you are looking for a comfortable, quiet place to stay for a few days, look no further. We would definitely stay again! ##### Twyla J.

It's a big home, plenty of room and everything you need. I did not hear any highway noise, just the sprinklers hitting the siding one morning. Well stocked with condiments. We went to the Black Canyon of the Gunnison NP and it was only 30 minutes to the north rim. Don't miss it. And such few people, at least on a Tuesday. Great hike on the rim. The telescope for the moon was so cool. The owners told me about the Farmers Market on Tuesday night in Paonia and that was fun and delicious to take part in. Convenient grocery stores in Hotchkiss and good places to eat. I wish the bedroom had some black out curtains but the home was everything you'd need. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David M. 25 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place to stay Great place ##### David M.

We had a great stay! Kitchen seemed ready to cook in, although we didn't (we opted to enjoy the great local restaurants!). Very clean. Great communication from the hosts. Definitely would stay again. ##### Kristen V.
