traveler reviews for this glenwood springs house rental

Expectations Far Exceeded

Siblings & Co. (Chicago, Il)
Review submitted: October 7, 2009   Date of arrival: September 24, 2009

I completely agree with the other reviews that I had read on the site prior to booking the guest house. Pictures are not able to do this property justice. The well cared for house and its surroundings are dramatic. The floor plan works extremely well for families and other groups. The location feels private and secluded but the town is still close enough that we could easily do the things we wanted (and get the things we needed) without a lot of driving. We loved that house isn't visible at all from the road yet still offers incredible views. One practical suggestion, if you are driving in from Denver and are Costco members, consider making a stop at the Gypsum warehouse on the way. We were able to get much of what we needed for our large group in one quick trip.

Glenwood Springs and the Roaring Fork Valley are hidden gems with all the natural beauty and year round recreation opportunities of other Colorado tourist areas but with far greater value. I highly recommend staying long enough to take in all that the guest house and surrounding attractions have to offer. I can't recommend enough the guest house, it's owners and their local hosts.

Recommended for: adventure seekers, age 55+, families with young children, people with disabilities, families with teenagers, sight seeing

Owners response: We love your practical suggestion to stop at Costco in Gypsum on the way up from Denver. There are also 2 grocery stores in Glenwood Springs for last minute items, but Costso offers the best selection and price for large groups to cook meals at home in the great kitchen at the Sunshine Ridge Guest House.

Absolutely beautiful!

Review submitted: March 17, 2011   Date of arrival: February 11, 2011

We are a Collegiate Nordic Ski Team and we have now stayed at the Sunshine Ridge Guest House twice and we always try to reserve the house when we are there for our races.

It is absolutely beautiful and extremely good sized for a large group. The kitchen is well stocked and has the best pots and utensils of any vacation rental we've rented.

We routinely stay in vacation rentals and this is one of the best!

There is plenty of space and great entertainment, pool, ping pong, air hockey, Tv's etc.

One of the best things for us is the huge garage where we can wax our skis for the races.

It's a wonderful place to stay and we highly recommend it!

Sunshine Ridge Retreat

Review submitted: March 17, 2011   Date of arrival: March 11, 2011

"Sunshine Ridge Retreat"

Sunshine Ridge Guest House works perfectly as a weekend retreat site for a group of 17 participants. The accommodations are quite spacious and offer sleeping options of all types for guests. The kitchen is generously stocked with dishes, flatware, glassware, utensils, and pots & pans of all types. The hillside setting is so scenic, it may lower productivity for those who are there to accomplish specified goals by the end of the weekend. Actually, the scenic view must have energized our group because, in the end, there was an extremely high level of goal completion. Both the owners and the caretakers were consistently helpful, friendly, and accommodating. Hoping to return for another event!
