This was our first time in Colorado and it def didn’t disappoint! Location was perfect. Walkable to shops and restaurants in Golden. It was an easy drive to Vail and Breckenridge to explore those areas. We also went horse back riding in Estes park and hiking in RMNP. And saw an amazing show at red rocks! The rental had everything we needed esp a comfy bed after our days of exploring! The host was super easy to communicate with and we would stay here again!

Great Golden location

This place met my top 3 criteria: clean, good bed, and quiet. We did a lot of cycling and the local path ran right next to the house. And the Golden Mill is a very cool place to grab a drink.

The location was great for visiting DT Golden. The area has many shops, restaurants, etc. Most attractions were within walking distance. Communication with the host was great. Some items within the home needed replacements, attention (bedroom ceiling fan, toilet). In all, it was a good stay as the home was clean and had all the necessary amenities.

This location is great and the price is right. We enjoyed the retro vibe. A booklet of instructions for tv, stove, ac, etc would be helpful.Patio was a delight but the weeds did detract.

The Retro Retreat is an adorable 50’s retreat and so close to downtown Golden. The Golden Mill was super close. A very short walk. I loved the 50’s decor, especially the prints in the bathroom, the toaster, the refrigerator, and the lava lamp. All so fun! Kendra was so easy to contact and the door was super easy to open and also secure. The bed was very comfy and we slept well in our cozy abode.
