Excellent property

We have rented many a home on VRBO and this was one of the best. The property was immaculate when we checked in and the host was in touch with us throughout our stay, The home is spacious and has plenty of character. If we return to the area we would absolutely rent this property again.

Beautiful Farmhouse

We had a wonderful time in CO. The farm house was better than advertised. Location was ideal, just a short drive to grocery store and dining. Dane and Megan were gracious host. They answered any questions we had and even provided us with organic eggs. Plenty of space for our family. Beautiful setup inside. There was a reading nook! We highly recommend!

Organic Farmhouse

Lovely stay in Arvada on a two-acre farm. Large house was nicely decorated and all soaps/cleaning solutions were organic. Nice patio, fire pit, and natural gas grill. Great view of Denver skyline in the distant. Host, Dane, was very responsive and pleasant. Bonus was collecting fresh eggs each morning from the friendly chickens. We will definitely look to stay again. Thank you, Dane, for a great visit.

Best stay, we asked for one extra day even!

The couple who owns this farm house was amazingly communicative and easy to get ahold of. The farm house was beyond charming. My 4 and 6 year old loved the toy closet, the fire pit and playground in the backyard, and library books to sift from! It was clean and cozy and just the right size for our family of four. We loved it so much and enjoyed the extra space that we asked for and were able to stay an extra night (instead of us opting for a hotel closer to the airport our last night). We will stay here certainly again should we come back to this area of town and will highly recommend this place to ANYone who asks!

A Perfect Spot -- Close to Denver -- Close to the Mountains

This beautifully maintained house in the western Denver suburbs provides easy access to both the city and the mountains. It's living space is spacious and inviting, its kitchen is very well appointed, the bedrooms (all three) are comfortable. And the property itself provides a little respite -- a covered patio for outdoor meals, a fire pit, and all the key elements of a working farm (a hothouse, a chicken coop). The property owners are very good communicators, very gracious (a welcoming loaf of fresh bread and a package of ground coffee) and very responsive to needs that arose during our stay. This is rental is a BIG winner.

Home Away From Home

If I could give 10 stars, I would. Best rental we have ever had through VRBO, hands down. This home was simply amazing for our family of 5. It was clean, beautifully decorated, and had an amazing outdoor space our boys loved to play during our downtime. Dane was great with leaving lots of detailed information and toys/activities for our kiddos and even left some goodies for the adults too! Super kind! I hesitate to say more because we hope to come back again and I don't want any competition! LOL. Thank you so much for everything! Can't wait to stay again! :)

Quaint, good location with plenty of room

Overall there were a a couple of hick ups, but pretty much remedied by the host. The heater went out but they fixed it timely. They don't mention the intolerance to fragrance, but they do supply detergent, so that's not an issue either, but would be nice to know ahead of time. I think it might have been in a welcome email. They also don't mention you can't get TV stations unless you hook up your accounts, again nice to know but not an issue unless you are weary of signing in. Other than that all is as presented on VRBO and we had a great time. As you can see we did give it 5 stars.

A hidden gem and a perfect place to stay!

We had a lovely and peaceful Labor Day weekend at this organic farmhouse. I was in search of a special location to relax and stay. My sister and brother were visiting from Illinois and we were attending a concert at Red Rocks. The farmhouse is a hidden gem. This very loved and well-maintained home and farm was perfect and delightful. It was beautifully decorated with a farmhouse charm… clean, fully stocked with all the essentials for prepping meals, wonderful organic products, and we admired the meaningful and creative saying and thoughts artistly displaced throughout the home. We walked and enjoyed the peaceful two-acre farm, enjoyed the sunrises and sunsets, prepared delicious meals and enjoyed them on the patio. We had magical and fun conversations around the fire pit, and we comfortably and peacefully slept. It was a phenomenal time of reconnecting and a perfect location to spend our precious time together. Dane is a lovely and inviting host and we are so grateful and happy we found this amazing place to stay.

Five stars plus!

This restored farmhouse was delightful -- spacious, clean, and well-supplied. Though located on a well-traveled road, the fence gave a sense of privacy and seclusion. Enjoyed walking in the back of the property to visit the chickens and very vocal rooster during the day (actually did not hear him at dawn). The owners could not have been more responsive, gracious, or accommodating. Five stars plus!

We had a great time staying at this unique property. Having 2 acres to yourself is very nice. House was clean, owners were extremely nice and even left us fresh coffee and an amazing breakfast strudel from a local bakery. Very very thoughtful owners and super kind.

Fantastic in every way!

We had the very best stay imaginable. The hosts were the best we've ever encountered in any stay anywhere. Our family truly loved the house, the farm, the area, absolutely everything. The kids, little ones, found their happy place from the moment we've arrived. It was relaxing and enjoyable every moment of every day - we never wanted to leave. It was a home away from home, except even better than that. I cant say enough good things about our experience.

Awesome Arvada stay

This property was awesome for our family trip to the Denver area. The location is super convenient to get outside of the city but also only a few minutes to the Wheat Ridge light rail station for getting into the heart of Denver. The house was clean and tidy and the hosts were super communicative and responsive to questions. Having farm-fresh eggs in the morning was a huge bonus! Would definitely stay here again on future family trips.

Recovery Stay

I used this home to recover from surgery and had a relative stay with me. The owners went above and beyond... left coffee for us and a few snacks including a cake! All the bedrooms are upstairs but there is a reclining chair in the living room that was wonderful for the first day and there's a no-step shower on main floor... also helpful! The home has some rules with a septic tank (which was a non-issue for us) and they let us know about a grounds person who comes to feed their chickens on the property etc... but they communicated all of that ahead of time and were incredibly easy to work with. The owner swung by to help us with their TV and brought us more water (we stayed a week) but they are PROMPT and on it! There is only one TV and was fine with us but good to know if you have other guests staying and expecting to watch TV in individual rooms for example but that's what laptops are for :) We really enjoyed our quiet stay there even with their hilarious rooster - thank you again for EVERYTHING!
