Please Read Before Booking:
This is a quiet, respectful property shared with your hosts, who live in the main house adjacent to the cottage. We warmly welcome travelers, visiting parents, professionals, and outdoor enthusiasts seeking a peaceful, well-located stay. However, if you’re looking for a party space, social hub, or romantic getaway, this won’t be the right fit.

We do not offer Instant Book. Please send an inquiry first so we can ensure a good fit before confirming your stay. We enjoy hosting respectful, low-impact guests and are happy to answer any questions you may have.
About the Cottage:
Our light-filled cottage is privately situated at the back of our property, just behind the main house where we live. Featuring vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, and abundant natural light, it provides a cozy and thoughtfully curated space for medium-length stays (up to 40 days maximum).
Inside you’ll find:
- Comfortable double bed with quality linens in a cozy sleeping nook
- Full kitchen with fridge, oven/stove, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, tea kettle, and cooking essentials

For the comfort and safety of all, only guests listed on the reservation are permitted on the property at any time. No additional visitors or gatherings are allowed, indoors or outdoors, including the patio.
Host Presence:
We live on-site in the main house and are regularly outside maintaining the yard, mowing the lawn, hanging laundry, and caring for the property, including the areas around the cottage. We personally greet guests upon arrival to welcome you and point out helpful details in the cottage.
If you are seeking complete privacy and no interaction with hosts, this may not be the ideal choice, as we maintain an involved and friendly presence.
Important Notes:
- Maximum stay: 40 days
- Quiet guests only — no parties, events, or smoking
- No student rentals or third-party bookings
- Check-in is between 4 PM and 10 PM
Parking Information:

Summary: I was in Boulder to be near son/grandson and this spot was great. Close to hiking. Bed very comfortable. Bathroom chilly on cold days (below zero) lots of sun in the kitchen. Loved the resident cats!
