About the host
Hosted by The Iris House

A Chicago transit, I've lived in Boulder for 13 years now. I'm a serial entrepreneur & Branding Strategist.
Hosting has provided the freedom and funding for 2 of my Start Ups & after 7 years of sharing our home with over 500+ guests I can say we have made some amazing friends along the way.
I appreciate luxury & simplicity & have found a formula that allows for both! Our highest priority is that each guest feels like they are being spoiled, with fresh flowers throughout, luxury linens, pillow top mattresses, candles, robes, slippers and local products all provided to make your stay perfect!

Why they chose this property
We LOVE Boulder but especially the downtown area! Being within a quick bike ride to Pearl Street or local hiking trails makes our location ideal for those seeking some adventure!
And, now that CU Buffs have gone mainstream we're just a few miles from the stadium.

What makes this property unique
The Iris House was built in 1890 and is one of the last standing Farm Homestead Properties in Boulder. We are the 6th owner to live here in 130 years and love the energy and history this home is so rich with. Every person who comes through our door says the same thing, the house feels calm and healing. It's drenched in sunlight with incredible views and large fenced in yard that lends to year round indoor/outdoor enjoyment.
From mornings on the front porch sipping coffee to evenings huddled in front of the fireplace watching the Deer nap under the mature trees from the Sunroom windows, it's a special kind of peace you will find here.
