Clean, quiet and private. Well-situation near a lovely lake and good food/drink options. Easy drives to hikes, sports venues, and a vibrant downtown scene. Colfax is a bit sketchy, so I wouldn't recommend walking in that direction, especially after dark. But the neighborhood on the lake-side of Colfax felt safe and comfortable. The apartment itself is basic, which is totally fine if that's what you're looking for. We knew we would only use it to sleep and shower, so it suited our needs very well. Nick is a great host.
