Staci and Tricia were wonderful hosts, and made sure that we had our privacy while they were there if we needed their help. There is a large backyard for your dog if you choose to bring him. We didn’t mind the short drive to downtown, and to New Belgium Brewing. The only downside is the lack of a kitchen sink, but for the size of the apartment, value, and lovely view of the lake, it is a small price to pay! Highly recommend!
