Great property if you are needing something for a large group. The fenced yard was a great place for grandchildren and adults to hang out when we weren’t out exploring. The property was very well stocked with essentials.

Beautifully restored historical house with an amazing family history. Spacious enough for a large family with comfortable beds and plenty of room and large, well-equipped kitchen. Large fenced yard for pets, outside eating and firepit. The Gowdys are super friendly and accommodating as are their son and daughter-in-law who own the High Altitude Adventures. They will definitely be our go-to for future visits. Thank- you, Gowdys for an amazing family vacations!

The Bonnie Rose what is an ideal location for my family and I to enjoy the Lake City ice Park. The accommodation was tastefully renovated in early 20th century style, but had modern facilities and comforts. While only four adults stayed at this location. It could easily handle twice that many people with the three bathrooms available and roomy dining room/kitchen. It was a pleasure to work with Jim Gowdy, the host, his prompt and detailed responses to my inquiries were much appreciated. We liked that the kitchen was well stocked with all of the pots pans, and some pantry items such as spices. Of special interest was the beautifully restored Hotpoint electric range that worked fantastically, considering it’s 50+ years old. The entire house was nicely cleaned, and there were plenty of cleaning supplies, plus a washer, and dryer, and all the minor accessories that you would expect in a home being rented. The linens and towels were in good shape and everyone enjoyed their individual bed. Considering that Gowdy Properties has many options in the Lake City area, I’m sure most VROB clients will be able to find a rental property that suitable for their trip. Highly recommended.

This home was large enough for our family and was centrally locacted in town. This allowed a short walk in town to see the sights. We had deer in the yard an outdoor fire pit and great views. We would highly recommend this property. Jim was wonderful! He was friendly and easy to contact. The property was very well stocked with the daily needed items!

Wonderful historical house, high ceilings, more than enough room for our 10 people & our vehicles with trailered ATV’s. We enjoyed the outdoor fire pit every night after our rides. Lake City has old town charm & trail head access from town. If we make it back, again, we will definitely look to the Bonnie Rose.

Our stay was just as expected. An older home with lots of history. Jim was a fantastic host and was great at communicating and fixed a leaky shower ASAP! We had plenty of room for our family. It was a quick walk downtown and a there is a school with a fabulous park (and basketball court) across the street. A great stay, we will likely return.

We had a great time while we was in Lake City. This was our first time in the area and we loved being there. The property was great! Jim had great communication about any questions we had. It was clean and comfortable couldn't have asked for a better place to stay while we was there. I hope that we can come back again next year!!

Everything was so easy. The house was immaculately clean. We used the pub area a lot. It rained the whole time but not the house’s fault, but there was plenty of room to play games inside. The backyard was huge and the fire pit was a nice touch. Watch out for the deer poop! I left my wedding rings at the house and Mr Gowdy quickly went over and found them for me. He kindly got them to the post office and sent them back to me immediately. I highly recommend staying there if you want to stay in town! If I had to add a critique it would be the issue of hot water down stairs. Thanks for everything.

Pros: it was clean, the beds were nice to sleep in, the kitchen had all new appliances and the property was very convenient to where everything is. Cons: It looked like there was a few unfinished carpentry projects. A tour group came by while we were sitting outside around the fire and stared at us for a few minutes. The guide, as he was leaving, told us the house was haunted. That disturbed a couple of my friends who had a hard time sleeping that night.

What a great experience. The Gowdy’s are excellent hosts, the property is in great shape, well-located, and just as described on the site. The decor and atmosphere of the house make you feel like you’re in the heyday of mining era Lake City, but also offers all the creature comforts expected by modern travelers (ice-maker, microwave, coffee and fixins!). Family of five with three teens, and we were extremely comfortable (and there was room for prob 6-7 more people) We’ll definitely be back. Thanks for being great hosts!

Perfect Guy's Trip

Perfect Guy's Trip

We had a great guy's trip, fishing and hiking a couple of 14ers. Jim was a great host and very responsive by text. The Bonnie Rose fit our needs well. The 5 bedrooms gave each of us our own room. There was plenty of space to spread out. The huge yard with corn hole and a fire pit was a bonus. The hosts have done a nice job restoring and decorating this historic home. The next time we come back to Lake City, the Gowdy properties will be at the top of our list.

Lake City is an amazing playground for hikers, mountain bikers, fishermen, and many other activities. We planned to hike in the area and found this gem in town. It is like living in a time travel through the 1900s with the comfort of our modern life. The outside firepit is a token as we could enjoy the stars at night. Wake up in the morning to see wild animals just in the backyard. We loved the house and would stay there again! Jim is an outstanding host!
