The perfect respite

I came to Boulder to care for my son after his ski accident surgery, and this home was perfect for our stay. Located just a block from Pearl Street, it was easy to grab anything we needed. The main-level bedrooms meant my son didn’t have to navigate any stairs, and he could comfortably relax outside on either the front porch or back deck to get some much-needed sunlight. The house is well-stocked, incredibly charming, and thoughtfully maintained. Communication with Rusty and Melissa was excellent. I would absolutely stay here again!

Amazing!!!

We were in town for a family wedding and our star was a 10/10. The property is in the BEST location! Literally steps away from everything you could want and need on Pearl Street. The house itself was beautiful and full of character yet exceptionally clean and tidy. We can't say enough great things about our stay and highly recommend it.

Perfect Stay in Boulder

The house is very comfortable and nicely adorned. Love the original wooden columns and built-ins. And with just a less than a minute walk to Pearl and a short drive to the trails it couldn't be better! Lots of restaurants with really good food. Great trip

Great Location

Great location and perfect for a weekend with friends, with just a couple of caveatsI rented this home for a weekend in Boulder with my two best friends. We chose it over a hotel so we could all stay together, and overall we had a wonderful time! The location truly can’t be beat — we were just steps away from fantastic restaurants, shopping, and everything downtown Boulder has to offer.The house itself has a lot of charm. We especially loved the inviting front porch and the bright, sunny sunroom — the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee.That said, there were a couple of things to be aware of. One of the bedrooms and bathrooms is located in the basement. While the space itself was nice (the bathroom downstairs was actually more updated than the one upstairs), the basement had an older, slightly eerie vibe typical of older homes, and none of us were particularly eager to sleep down there. It definitely feels like a basement.Also worth noting: there’s a separate third-floor unit above the main house, and we could hear footsteps overhead, particularly later in the evening. It wasn’t a huge deal, but it did disrupt the quiet a bit.All in all, we really enjoyed our stay — the house was a lovely home base for our time in Boulder. With a little awareness about the basement setup and potential for upstairs noise, I’d still recommend it to others, especially for its unbeatable location and welcoming common areas.

Boulder Beauty

We loved our time at this property. Charming and well appointed with lots of character. Having a parking space was key even though we walked everywhere. I knew the location was good but it was even better than I thought. We had dinner at Felix's and West End Tavern - both delicious - both a short walk. Also, Lolita's Market was ideal for basic groceries. Lastly, we walked to Folsom Field for a CU football game. It was a beautiful stroll along the pedestrian creek path and so much less stressful than trying to drive & park. I would HIGHLY recommend this VRBO to anyone visiting Boulder. Thank you for helping make our stay so enjoyable!
