3-bedroom private house for your stay in lovely Rocky Ford, Colorado

10/10 Excellent
"This was a good location to stop for a night, this was just the first leg of a bit longer trip. The home had plenty of space and had everything needed in the kitchen, as well as plenty of shampoo, body wash, and towels in the bathroom. It was unseasonably warm and humid in the area during my trip and while there is a window air conditioner that Maya had turned on for us before we arrived, it was still a bit warm in the home. The town was walkable and while there wasn’t too much to explore it was a very atmospheric place to walk around, especially at dusk. There was a permanent taco truck just a few blocks walk from the home that is worth a try. The coffee shop downtown was excellent, with pastries that I still think about. Though I only stayed for one night, I could see staying here just to relax and regroup for a longer period of time. Fenced front and back yard were perfect for my dogs, and I loved sitting on the front porch with coffee and a book in the morning while the dogs safely sniffed around and kept themselves occupied without bugging me or me worried about them running off. Maya’s communication was perfect and I could tell our comfort during our stay was important to her. All in all I was happy with this quick stay and would stay here again."
