Cute, clean, ample space. We were pleasantly surprised to find food basics to make cooking easier - no need to buy small items for a single use.

Great little cottage!
Loved this place! The location was quiet and secluded but still within 15 of two little cute downtowns. Everything was clean and they had all the amenities we were looking for - a grill, kitchen stuff, a fire pit, etc. we were able to pick up local bison and cook there which was nice! We did have a little utility issue but the manager rushed over right away and addressed it. Overall, perfect stay and we would def come back!

Perfect stay for our family of 3!
The property was exactly as advertised, and incredibly charming. We used it as a spring board for a few ski days at Loveland, and it was a lovely little place to come home to after a long day on the slopes. We look forward to another stay in the future.

Perfect Cabin !
This property is so cute and comfortable! My friend and I spent three nights in this little gem. It seems to be in the middle of nowhere, which we loved, however it was the perfect location to easily get to all the places we wanted to go. We enjoyed Idaho Springs (very close by) and the coffee shop at the bottom of the hill near house. We attended a concert at Red Rocks!St Mary’s Glacier, Big Blue Sky, and boulder! Great place to relax after a long day! Love outdoor spaces!!Be sure to check out mountain stream across the street’

A wonderful get away
Everything about our stay was top notch. The host was prompt and helpful. The house is perfect for 2-3 people. The location was great. We got groceries and headed up the mountain and didn't leave for a few days. Hiked local trails. Enjoy the outdoor space for meals and conversations. Talked with some friendly locals. I've stayed at a number of mountain cabin type places and this is the best.

2nd stay at the Chickadee
We enjoyed our first stay so much that we decided to book again for a ski weekend at Loveland. We love how cozy the place is, and its proximity to Loveland ski area, and restaurants etc. in Georgetown and Idaho Springs. Its a perfect home base for relaxing afternoons/evenings after a good morning on the slops. We'll be back again, for sure.
