Absolutely loved the kitchen and cooking for my family and friends!! The house is very modern and really felt like a vacation home. Ski Cooper is very close and I highly recommend it- less crowded, family friendly, great service.

Great property, Disengaged Property Manager
It is a beautiful industrial chic 3 level home in Leadville. No complaints on location or cleanliness. Huge kitchen and can accommodate big parties! We loved hanging out, playing games and we got a kick out of reading the guest reviews book. We did not have the best experience with the property manager. Ofcourse you know as vacationers the best scenario is when you don't need help but when you do, it's always time sensitive because your time is valuable! Pros: Andrew the property Mgr let us check in early which was great, he was responsive on text when we had a snag in understanding how the lock worked. Cons: We could not figure out how the sauna worked; personally we think it was broken. We texted Andrew 2 nights in a row (3 night trip) to ask for help and he would reply *12 hours* later when the window for using the sauna had run out and then repeat instructions that didn't work! We were disappointed and frustrated with these huge delays. Once we left and texted to say we couldn't get the sauna to function, within minutes after us leaving, he presumably had someone in person to check on the sauna! Why not send this person while we were there? Does not make any sense! Andrew- For families on vacation, time is limited, so every issue is time-sensitive. We needed you to act & follow-up and you did not. Impression made was that Property Mgmt was a 2nd job & actionable on a limited basis.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and I am glad you enjoyed the home. I strive to ensure a perfect stay for our guests at all times, and am sorry that you felt that in this instance I was slow to react. As you mentioned, on the day of your arrival I walked you through how to use the front door lock, and how to manage the heat in the home. You reached out to me later that night regarding the sauna, and I responded first thing in the morning with instructions on how to use it. (These instructions are also available in the digital guestbook) I did not hear anything from you until later that next evening, and again, responded first thing in the morning. You insisted that the sauna was broken. It was the weekend, and impossible to get an electrician or sauna contractor out to make any repairs, so once again, I tried to walk you through the instructions on how to use the sauna. When you departed, I asked the cleaner who was cleaning the home to try turning on the sauna with the same instructions that I had given you, and the cleaner was able to get the sauna working immediately. Once again, I apologize that you had issues with using that amenity, but am glad you enjoyed your overall stay!

Sweet weekend getaway
SO MUCH TO LOVE! Friends visiting from MN this was perfect! Easy to find - LOTS of space to park, walk dog etc. Short walk into town where we found delicious food (Treeline YUM! and High Mtn Pies for pizza - double YUM!) about 45 min to Vail and surrounding areas. View from the top is unreal. The inside was absolutely stunning - sunny - warm with a touch of elegance. Thank you so much :)

Excellent Property, Perfect Location
Simply stated, I would be surprised if there is a better short term rental property in the Leadville, CO area. This home is exactly what it appears to be online. Modern, clean, nicely remodeled, and well-appointed, with everything guests need to feel at home. The location is quiet, yet only a few blocks from Highway 24 / Poplar St, which is the main drag in Leadville. We used the home as our base to walk much of central Leadville, and also from which to explore Twin Lakes, and various hikes on Highway 82, towards Aspen. The beds are comfortable. We cooked a few meals and found the kitchen to have everything we needed. The rooftop hot tub, sauna & fire pit table were excellent, and very nice to have after a day of driving, hiking and exploring. The owner / manager was easy to work with. The digital guide to the property is first class and answered all of our questions. The only caveat I would share with future guests is to ensure you examine the hot tub when you arrive. In our case it was off at the nearby breaker, and needed about 24 hours to reach temp, which we wished we had discovered a little earlier in our stay. Overall, excellent experience, and we would rent again if staying in or passing through the Leadville area.

Exactly what we were looking for.
The location of this house was perfect. Walking distance to many locations and dining and shops in town. Less than a mile to get onto the trail around Leadville. This was exactly what we were looking for. The three bedrooms with three baths worked out perfectly. The rooftop deck had beautiful views, and the hot tub was fantastic. Our overall experience was excellent.

A good stay
The unit is well designed, comfortable and functional with its three levels enabling a family/ friends the ability to spread out. The minor deficiencies include the larger kitchen sink handle falls off and the electrical outlets and beside lamps in the front bedroom are all inoperable. A set of real steak knives and corn cob stickers would be nice. Overall, well maintained and worthy of repeat visits. I’d rate at 4.75.

1 block from downtown. Being next door to Moe’s BBQ was a bonus. Clean location. Tons of amenities. SPACIOUS (3 floors). Huge kitchen with everything you may need. My family LOVED the rooftop hot tub and sauna with the mountain view’s. If you are looking to stay in Leadville, you want to stay here.

Location + outdoor space + views
The location of this house is ideal and the views and outdoor space (hot tub, sauna, fire table) really made our trip! Walking distance to all the prime spots, well-stocked kitchen for big breakfasts and dinner in when desired. Check out Treeline for dinner, High Mountain Pies after a hike, Casa Sánchez for Mexican, and Blue Flower Candy & Provisions for souvenirs. We also rented e-bikes from Blue Flower and really enjoyed riding the Mineral Belt Trail. Charlie, who owns the auto shop next door was so friendly and fun to chat with. What a great trip to summit Elbert and Hope Pass, biking and adventure. Leadville is truly a gem mountain town with the nicest people. We will be back!

Best Location In Leadville
We come to Leadville once a year for the Marathon/ Heavy Half. This is the perfect rental for the occasion. 8 of us enjoyed 5 days in Leadville. The home is walking distance to everything and has the best view of town, the mountains and most importantly the race! It has all the amenities, a great kitchen and the top deck with tub and sauna was amazing. Definitely a home we would return to.

Perfect Ski Vacation Getaway
We had a fantastic ski vacation staying at Lost City Lodge! The kitchen was state of the art and the great area was fantastic for our large family to hang out together, chat about our ski mishaps and playing games. The rooftop Jacuzzi and sauna were amazing and we enjoyed them to the fullest after a full day of skiing. It was within walking distance of some incredible restaurants that we did not expect to find in such a small town. In short, we very much enjoyed staying here and hope to stay here again when we come back next year.

Great location, super clean, and excellent communication with manager when issues arose. The views were amazing and we enjoyed proximity to town and the mineral belt trail. This worked really well for our family of five. The only thing I’d recommended for the property would be rails for the bunk beds. Of our kids were younger, those top bunks would not have been an option. Definitely would consider staying again.

Perfect location!
This VRBO is fantastic! Awesome amenities, perfect walkable location, in a beautiful little town. With only five of us there was tons of space and privacy, with great living room and rooftop hangout spots together. The board games and speaker in the living room were a great little extra touch. Incredible huge kitchen too - definitely a place to entertain! Only small issues were the wifi (took a few hours of texting with the property manager and my husband fiddling with it to resolve) and the hot tub takes a while to heat up (turn it on as soon as you arrive!). Can't recommend enough!

So happy with our choice of place to stay
Very clean, plenty of towels, extra bedding and necessities. Beds were great and there was plenty of room for our group to spread out. The roof top hot tub and sauna were cleans and ready to go. Star gazing from the hot tub at night and cloud watching during the day were the best parts. Easily walkable to every spot in town you could need and a short drive to the grocery store. Location was great and house was too. Property manager was very responsive and helpful. Definitely recommend staying and will be back if ever in Leadville! For the best coffee and service I highly recommend ZeroDay coffee just off of Main Street on 7th street, a two minute walk from the house. Quincy’s had amazing steaks at unbelievably low prices.

My wife and I stayed here for 5 nights, while in town for our niece’s wedding in Leadville. The house was great!

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We have completely emptied the hot tub and will make sure we keep a better eye on it for future guests. (We did check it prior to your arrival and all chemicals were well balanced.) We will also deep clean the grill. We manage 30 properties and all of them come with high speed internet and either a Roku stick or smart television system so that our guests can access streaming content that they subscribe to at home. This keeps our rates down for all of our guests. We hope to host your next stay in Leadville.

Perfect Downtown Location
Our group came to Leadville for a ski weekend to try a local ski mountain - Cooper! The location was perfect to walk to all of the bars and restaurants on the Main Street. The house itself is just as the pictures show! It’s very modern, spacious and clean! The house had all the amenities you need and all of the sleeping arrangements are spread out which is nice for a large group. We had problems with the WiFi working and hot tub temp but the property manager was extremely responsive and offered to come over and take a look himself, which was greatly appreciated! Leadville is an unknown secrete with some amazing views and small town feels - you won’t want to leave the hot tub with the views you get from the balcony!

Great house but could use improved comfort
The house is amazing on almost all accounts! The hot tub does not disappoint at all! The kitchen had everything we needed to make breakfast every day (we ate out on other meals). As others mentioned, it is not for those who have issues with stairs since it is 3 levels, but that is fully disclosed. Leadville is beautiful! We only had 2 items that could be improved- the bedroom mattresses is one- some of the group actually slept in the bunk beds on the 3rd floor because the bedroom mattresses are so uncomfortable. Master mattress was very lumpy. The only other item that could be improved is the size/location of the TV in the living room. When hanging out as a group, it was hard to see the tv with how it was positioned. I would stay again, but for the price I would expect a better mattress for a better night sleep.

I know everyone else will say this, but the view from the third story hot tub really is amazing! We had a wonderful stay in this house. not for people who don't like stairs as it is a three-story house and there's not a bathroom on each floor. Very comfortable and clean and the owners were very Covid responsible. Just two blocks from Main Street easy to walk everywhere.
