Misrepresented Property – Serious Cleanliness and Maintenance ConcernsWe were very excited for our family trip to Twin Lakes, but unfortunately this rental was not as advertised. While we understood it was an older 1880 bungalow, the condition of the home went far beyond “historic charm.” It had not been properly cleaned or maintained for quite some time.Upon arrival, we found mouse droppings in the kitchen area, a stagnant bucket under the bathroom sink, a dirty ring around the toilet, and a shower that had to be cleaned before it could be used. The dishwasher, stove, washer, and light switches were visibly dirty. There was thick dust on surfaces, cobwebs with clumps of pet hair, and grime in the table crevices. The bedding had an odor, and the mattress cover in our room had a large stain. We had to wash and clean extensively before we could use basic amenities.We also received several contradictory instructions from the property manager regarding trash, bedding, and house rules, which added unnecessary confusion.We were especially concerned about safety and cleanliness for our five year old great nephew. When he turned on the overhead fan, a significant amount of dust and debris fell from it, causing him to cough. The areas under the beds, where children naturally hide and play, were extremely dirty. This made it difficult for him to safely enjoy the space and took away from the family time we had planned.This home has a 9.8 rating, but our experience did not r

Great stay!!

We loved our stay here at Twin Lakes. What a great cabin! We loved the charm, history and little town. We had a great time ice fishing, hanging by the fire, playing games and soaking up the fresh air. We’ll be back for sure this summer! Thanks!

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.

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.
