We spent the Christmas holidays at Sam's. Denver did not provide snow for the holiday, but Sam provided a small tree and a tin full of candy, in addition to the hot tea and nuts that were waiting for us when we arrived. Sam was so gracious and available to answer every question. He gave us a thorough tour of the house so we knew where everything was and we felt like we were home. If we go back to Denver, we'll look for Sam's place first. It was a great experience!
