Great location in Twin Lakes village
I was very happy with my solo stay at this historic home. It had everything I needed -- especially good wifi for work. The house sleeps four and has one bathroom. Staying alone, I was obviously fine. Loved the location. If I had one suggestion, it would be brighter light bulbs in the kitchen, but that's obviously minor. Easy process and great stay - highly recommend!

Excellent overnighter before climbing 14er
This is a cute, clean property. It was easy to find directions from Google Maps. We stayed here overnight before climbing Mt. Elbert, which the South trailhead was just a 7-minute drive from the house. The host was very responsive to my questions and I was all set when I got there. I recommend this place.

We stayed in order to access Twin Lakes for ice fishing. The location was stunning and perfect for access to both lakes. The home was very comfortable for my husband and I. We appreciated the King bed and wood stove at the end of the day

Comfortable home in beautiful location
I stayed for 2 nights while visiting friends in Colorado. The house had everything I needed. The view of the mountains from the front porch is beautiful. The house is within walking distance of the restaurants and shops in town. I especially appreciated that the beds are comfortable. I was well rested. I would definitely reserve this house again if I am in the area.

What a great little gem!
Booked the bungalow for a father/son fishing trip. Lisa was patient answering my questions and provided us some great local tips. Dinner at the Surf Hotel was amazing and a nice refuge from cooking trout every night! The house was clean and well appointed with everything we needed. I highly recommend this property for anyone wanting to explore the Twin Lakes area.

Cozy Cottage
We are repeat customers and have stayed in this lovely house about three times now. It is very convenient to the store and restaurant, within walking distance. It is so nice to take a walk early morning and evening and take in the views. We enjoy barbecuing and this time used the coal cooker. The house is stalked with just about everything you need. We enjoy sitting on the front porch after a long day of fishing. Will come back because we just love Twin Lakes.

Great Getaway
We really enjoyed our stay at this bungalow...it was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Really great place! Not sure if the plumbing is simply tricky or if a roto-rooter could help, but we had to use the plunger A LOT. Also...many of the pots and pans are damaged and scratched (could use replacing), and please consider using fragrance-free (or lightly scented) laundry detergent on sheets and towels. Overall, this is a great place and we really enjoyed our stay.
