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!

Visit to CSU student
Everything that we needed was on the property, the loft worked incredibly well, the outdoor spaces were inviting, the site was close to campus, the place was clean and delightful. The only glitch was that we didn't drive to the house, so we entered from the sidewalk (not the alley) and then had to contact Lynne to get directions to the property itself (instead of one of the other buildings on the site). But Lynne quickly answered our call and directed us to the proper front door.

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!

Perfect spot near Old Town
The cottage was a perfect spot for me and my wife to stay while visiting our kids in Fort Collins. Old Town and the CSU campus are both within walking distance. There is plenty of shops and restaurants nearby (the Bluebird is an awesome breakfast and lunch spot). The cottage was really clean and nicely decorated. The owners are very easy to communicate with and they truly want you to be happy while enjoying their little piece of Fort Collins. We will be back!

Lovely and Convenient!
The cottage was just as listed. It was conveniently located close to CSU campus, Old Town and plenty of restaurants. We had all the amenities we needed to be comfy and sleep well! Lynn is a great Host and easy to communicate with.
I stayed with my mom and gave her the downstairs bedroom. I slept in the loft, and was careful going up and down the spiral stairs, though they were adorable and a practical use of the space, they're not for anyone unsteady on their feet.
Overall, highly recommend this VRBO!

Wonderful stay
Perfect spot for a family of four (adults) to celebrate their brother's graduation from CSU graduate program. Very close to campus, clean, very attentive host who let us check in early, and nice to have coffee at the ready in the kitchen. This is our second stay here and I would come back in a heartbeat. Very reasonable price as well.

Excellent Stay
My wife and I have stayed in several VRBO in Ft Collins and this was our favorite place. The cottage is comfortable, clean, safe, quiet and smells good. The owners do an excellent job proving everything needed and some that we didn't consider like rain jackets, bikes, outdoor fire pit, etc. This is a perfect place for couples or those traveling with small children. The kitchen does not have a stove or oven but there's a George Forman grill, skillet, BBQ and other amenities. The location is excellent and walking distance to CSU. Also, you have your own parking space which is a premium in this community. We will definitely stay here again.
