Great place

The property is close to the CSU campus and shopping dining area only blocks away. The cottage is well designed to take advantage of every space. It is decorated very nicely and is well appointed. It has everything you need and then some. The space is great for 2 people but could be right for 4 however. I highly recommend this property for a stay in Ft Collins.

Comfortable cottage in great location

A great place to stay in Ft Collins near restaurants, grocery store, coffee shops, and the university. Unit is one of three on lot but it was surprisingly quiet even during graduation weekend. Downsides: no stove/oven, spiral staircase and very high tub. Loved raincoats and bikes. Will stay there again

Cheerful and sparkly clean cottage!

This place was so comfy. The host has thought of the details a guest might need. Because we were visiting our daughter we didn't test the kitchen but we really enjoyed the sunny and restful space. Thanks for a great stay!

Great vacation rental

The place was clean, well kept and lovely. It was the perfect size for two adults and two kids (ages 8 and 10). The small kitchen was sufficient for cooking lots of simple meals. The outdoor space was perfect for relaxing and eating meals. The location was great for walking to many restaurants. We had a very enjoyable stay!
