Quiet and Cozy
I stayed on this beautiful property with my sister and daughters. The swing overlooking the view with my morning coffee was just what was needed to unplug. The bed, the sheets were so so comfy. The views are fantastic. The hosts are super nice and helpful. I highly recommend choosing this home for your next stay.

We had an amazing time. Alan and Stephanie are great. The house is clean and well stocked. Sitting on the porch swing and looking out over the valley and mountains was a great way to drink coffee every morning. I will miss the view.

Beautiful Property in a gorgeous location
From check in to check out, all was taken care of quickly and with no problems at all. The property is overlooking a beautiful view of the valley and has outdoor chairs and tables so you can enjoy your evening. The property is well appointed with very comfortable chairs and couches to relax in. The bedrooms are very comfortable, one having a queen size bed and the other having a king. There are windows throughout looking out onto the view, yet plenty of window coverings to ensure your privacy. The bathrooms are large with plenty of room. Everything was clean and in excellent condition. The property is well away from any noise, yet very easy to get to. The owners worked to make sure we were well taken care in all aspects. We thoroughly enjoyed out stay there and recommend this property without any reservation.

No clothes
Great place, beautiful view. It had no washer/dryer and the owners were clearly hesitant to let us use theirs on the second level. Pretty disappointing to spend that much money and not have access to a basic need. The laundromat was 10 minutes away and 1.5 hours of time away from my family and guests. Won’t stay there again as beautiful as it was.

Beautiful, quiet getaway
This property was absolutely amazing. The neighborhood is very quiet, the views from the patio are beautiful, and the location is super convenient for getting out of the city, but within an easy drive to south Denver. The interior is so clean and comfortable, we felt like it was as close to a home away from home as you can get. The hosts thought of every detail to make this a truly special place to stay. There were extra bathroom essentials, a basket of s'mores ingredients for the firepit, and a very well stocked kitchen. My wife and I are looking for an excuse to escape to the mountains again so that we can stay at this beautiful property.

Family get together
This beautiful lodging fit the bill for a visit with our niece and nephew as well as a family dinner ending with s’mores attended by our oldest daughter and her family. The view is amazing and the patio with the large table and the fire pit was playing games and visiting. The interior is well appointed with many thoughtful additions in the bathrooms and kitchen. We highly recommend this property.

Rocky Mountain Adventures
We absolutely loved our stay at the property. The pictures do not do justice to the majestic views from the porch! Alan is a rockstar! When a huge snow storm dropped over 2 feet of snow, he made sure the driveway was cleared and that we could get out. The house was centrally located to all our Colorado adventures. The house is far enough off the beaten path that we were able to enjoy the peace of the country but close enough to all the amenities Colorado has to offer. Would absolutely recommend this property to anyone and look forward to a return visit!

5 Star
Views Galore is an exceptionally beautiful property inside and out. The view from the patio is really that stunning! Inside is just as wonderful and everything you could possibly need is provided. It’s very clean, the beds are comfortable, the kitchen is a joy to cook in if you don’t feel like going out and the patio with grill, heaters and fire pit were exactly what we were looking for to have a peaceful, comfortable vacation. It’s close to many outdoor spaces for hiking and taking in the mountains and nature. The hosts are friendly and easy to communicate with, they are also 5 Star! We would absolutely go there again and are checking into summer dates. We really can’t say enough positive things about the hosts and property!

The view was beautiful. The space was very well furnished. The rental is the basement of the main home that the owners live in. We could hear footsteps and the dogs upstairs occasionally but it wasn’t problematic. Spices, bathroom supplies, and snores were provided.

Comfortable
Great open space for hosting/visiting, very comfortable fit for 4 people, two and two staying in the bed rooms. Location is off in a little neighborhood that makes you feel like you are no where near the city but indeed at a getaway. Owners live upstairs, which was a bit of a surprise, but they were not a distraction of any kind, only a handful of times would we hear their dog run around at 9am with some whimpers. If I found myself in the area, I would stay again.

Great owners, beautiful space and location, but not completely private
We wanted to write this very honest review about our stay in Views Galore. Alan and Stephanie are very nice, lovely people. You can tell they really enjoy meeting new people and sharing their home. There are pros and cons to this VRBO. The space is beautiful and cozy. With amazing views of the valley. It says it sleeps 9, but only has 3 spots to sit and eat inside. During the winter months that doesn't really suit 9. We would stand and eat so we didn't make a mess in the living room. That is written in the listing but you have to go through it very thouroughly to know this. However, I wouldn't say it's completely private. They seemed quite aware of our coming and goings. You have to communicate with them to take the trash out. Which isn't a problem unless you want to be totally alone. They live in the house. They work daily, so every morning we were woken up very early when they got ready for work. The dogs were so cute, but would cry for hours when they left which left us pretty sleepless. Comically, its like living in Mom and Dad's beautifully finished basement. Now, the ammenities were so nice. Probably some of the nicest I've seen in a VRBO. They have super soft comforters. Brand name bathroom products. Top tier coffee and tea bar. Even a smores kit. All the goodies for your dog if you bring them as well. AND the wild animals were a huge plus for us.
