First of all…loved Golden! Perfect location on the Front Range and only 20 minutes to downtown Denver. Easy access to many wonderful hiking trails including the Clear Creek walking trail which was accessible by walking into town from the home. Golden provided us with all the culinary, café and brewery experiences we could hope for. The home itself is a beauty. Set up with every conceivable convenience as well as special touches of luxury with a classy and higher end decor. Peter and Carma, the hosts, are lovely people and very available for any questions or requests. There was a vegetable garden on the property which yielded a plethora of ripe and ready vegetables and required no attention from us as far as watering, etc. That was a real unexpected treat. All in all…a perfect Golden month!

Everything about this property was perfect. The owners, the house, the amenities, the location......it was just what we wanted. The house was so organized and it had everything and anything we may have needed. The furnishings are top notch and the kitchen had more gadgets and appliances than I have at my own home. Peter and Carma are delightful. We received 8 inches of snow and they had the sidewalks and driveway shoved by 9am!!! We will definitely be back.

I'm really not kidding when I say this was literally the best VRBO I have ever stayed at. My boyfriend and I spent about 30 days here and we were almost in tears having to leave so soon. Pete and Carma (and their son) were amazing hosts and ensured a completely stress-free stay for us. It felt like we were at a 5-star resort and we knew if we needed anything, Pete was just one text away and would be there in a heartbeat. The house itself was immaculate. Before you even entered the house, there is a beautiful garden filled with ready-to-eat vegetables including tomatoes, chard, carrots, cabbage, massive zucchini, basil, peppers. rosemary, and so much more! We definitely made use of the garden everyday and it helped cut down on grocery costs ha! Inside the house, you will find that it is extremely clean and it's completely stocked with everything that you could ever need. In the kitchen, there's new appliances (gas stove, large refrigerator, microwave, food processor, blender, etc). and tons of cooking supplies, pots, pans, plates, cups, glasses. Enough plating for a large family! In the closets there were tons of extra sheets, blankets, towels, and everything that we needed. The house is super spacious with 4 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms and tons of living space and space for activities. There is also a 2-car garage with bike storage which made it very convenient for us. The location is also right in the heart of Golden. Walking distance to downtown, hikes, trails, running, biking, Golden creek. Everything you needed was only a 5-10 minute walk away. As I am writing this review, I am reminiscing on living in true paradise this past month. We wish we could go back. If you are interested in staying here, please stop reading and just book! Pete's place gets reserved extremely fast and it's no surprise. Hands down, the best stay we've ever had and I look forward to staying here again anytime I am in town!

Loved it.

I'm hesitant to write this review because I want to keep this gem of a home all to myself... But since it's the holiday season , I'll share the wealth and let everyone know that this is an absolutely incredible place to stay !! From it's impeccable furnishings to its beautiful location nestled below the Golden foothills, this house has it all. We spent a wonderful month here and lacked for nothing except for more time to stay . We've already booked our next trip back and can't wait to return! Thanks so much , Pete and Carma !

The whole stay far exceeded our expectations. You can never be sure you will get what you see in the pictures but I can assure you with this house you get more! The bedrooms were all very comfortable and the kitchen was perfectly stocked. Our favorite feature though may have been the fenced backyard with a grill, outdoor dining table and sitting area around a wood chiminea with great views of the surrounding hills. On top of that, Pete was a wonderful host who was flexible with our check in and check out, always responded quickly to messages and without us even asking brought over outdoor toys for our kids, fairy lights for the table outside and what seemed like an endless firewood supply for the chiminea . The house is also wonderfully situated within walking distance of the downtown area as well as the college. There are also countless hikes and other outdoor activities in the area. We cannot recommend this house (and the city of Golden) highly enough!

We harvested from the garden, sat in the backyard, used the BBQ and entertained by using the well equipped kitchen . Peter and Karma couldn’t have been more gracious. They lent us tubes and set us up to host brunch. The house was a great place for visiting friends and family. We couldn’t have been happier or more comfortable. Thank you Peter and Karma!

This house is perfect, my guys absolutely loved it. The owner spared no expense on the details of this home. It is layed out perfectly, just the right amount of open space and privacy all in one. The neighborhood is quiet and safe and the views are spectacular. We can’t wait to use it again! The owner is very attentive to any needs and takes a lot of pride here! Thanks again for everything!
