Family-friendly vacation rentals in Boulder

Two words - dream home! Tassi & Larry were very responsive and made us feel right at home. I was in awe in every single moment of my stay. The place offers great views, a cozy environment, and the hosts are very friendly. 10/10 will be coming back to Idledale to catch a beautiful sunrise and sunset! To be honest, I did not feel like leaving, but that just goes to show that it is a wonderful place for your getaways! Tassi & Larry, I can't thank you enough for letting us stay at your wonderful home.

Joel was great! He sent a list of recommendations before we arrived. I wish we had more time to explore, but the backyard was perfect for us to hang out at. Very easy instructions for check in and check out. I’d definitely stay here again!

Our stay was great. The place was perfect for my boyfriend and I. The bed was really comfy and cozy. I really appreciated the small details, like things we might need around the studio. For example toiletries, small snacks, maps, etc. There isn't a "kitchen" but the fridge, microwave, and water kettle were perfect for what we needed. We didn't get a chance to check out the hot tub, because we were too busy exploring the surrounding areas. The location was perfect for day trips to surrounding open spaces, Estes Park, Rocky Mountain Nat. Park, Boulder, and Idaho Springs. We even saw a Moose and her baby on our way home from dinner only about 10 mins from town. Nederland is a cute little town with shops and restaurants. Our hosts were so friendly, and made great recommendations. We also thoroughly enjoyed meeting their lovable dog, Amen. We loved saying hello to the chcickens and ducks on our way in and out of the studio.Definitely recommend this studio to anyone traveling to the area.

Do not pass up this hidden gem! If you want peace and quiet, beautiful surroundings, and love fishing and water activities, book it now! Our hosts were amazing and the lakehouse was everything we wanted for our staycation. Every day (our stay was the end of May) we saw moose, blue heron, deer, humminbirds and a variety of other wild birds. The hot tub was perfect and the house has everything you need to cook your own meals, grill and just relax. We will most definitely be back!

Gorgeous cabin in a peaceful, beautiful area. We saw wildlife right from our bedroom window and enjoyed the peace and quiet in the hot tub. The apartment was cozy and had everything we needed. The local recommendations really helped. 30 mins from downtown Golden, 20 mins to Nederland, and 35 mins to Red Rocks.

This cabin exceeded all expectations. Upon arrival, we were welcomed by an impeccably clean space, thoughtfully stocked with numerous amenities including a full set of dishes, an iron, makeup wipes, soap, shampoo, and conditioner. The view was truly exceptional—we were delighted to wake up each morning to elk grazing just outside, along with sightings of other wildlife. The setting was remarkably peaceful, free from the noise of traffic or loud music. Its proximity to the Stanley Hotel and downtown ensured easy access to dining options and local attractions. The host was exceptionally friendly and accommodating, contributing greatly to the overall positive experience.

Michelle was an extremely gracious and responsive host! We will definitely stay here again if the opportunity presents itself. The view exceeds expectations.

A stunning mountain retreat on the top of a hill, with breathtaking views of the surrounding peaks. The home is extra clean, spacious, and feels brand new. The host was incredibly helpful, guiding us throughout our stay and promptly answering all our questions. The experience of being on top of the mountains was truly amazing, with elk roaming freely in the area. Located just 20 minutes from Boulder via a shortcut—be sure to ask the host about it. Highly recommend this place and would definitely stay again.

I was in Boulder for a fitness retreat and if I were to return for another, I would definitely see if Susan and Keith’s Airbnb was available again. They were terrific hosts—so kind and caring. The amenities were perfect, and the description was exact. Such a peaceful neighborhood. Their space was so wonderful to come home to each day. Thank you so much!

This is a precious Airbnb in an adorable neighborhood. The location is close to downtown and the actual area is beautiful, safe, and has so much to offer. We would absolutely stay here again if we are in the Longmont area!!

Michael’s place was wonderful. We came on short notice to visit our grandmother in the hospital. He even offered an early check in to accommodate us.

Bright comfortable space in an excellent location. All we needed for a 4 day stay in beautiful Boulder.

Amy’s place was just as described, so close to the Flatirons and a really beautiful neighborhood!

This is a real gem of a place. It was super cozy, clean, well stocked and an excellent location. The queen bed was very comfortable and the claw foot tub was a nice addition after a long day on our feet. We also love the locally made art and quirkiness of the space. Aaron was really helpful and clear with instructions and we felt right at home.

Fantastic stay and would gladly stay here again. You have access to what I’ve always called a “mud room” that leads downstairs to your private basement. It feels super cozy and the hosts were fantastic. Lovely stay.

We didn’t spend much time at the Carriage House, we primarily used it for sleeping because we had relatives in town. When we were at the Carriage House for a leisurely moment we were comfortable and didn’t feel restrained. We notice an interesting selection of books to read and plenty of board games. We would stay again.

Great location and communication with host! Will stay again if we return to Winter Park.

This was our second time staying here, and it was just as wonderful as the first! Quiet and cozy and the beds are just like sleeping at home. Highly recommend this location when needing a large home for a trip. Our two families of five each had a great vacation here. Each level has its own bathroom and living space and plenty of room for all your gear. It is easy to walk to the ski lifts and base area, or drive and drop off skiers in just a couple minutes. The property manager is very responsive and addresses any issues promptly.

Clean, convenient to slopes, nice size rooms. Highly recommend!!

The location was perfect for my family. We took the Amtrak train to and from Fraser. The local bus system was super convenient from the station to the condo, grocery,and winter park for skiing. We also enjoyed convenient access to the pool, hot tubs, and laundry facilities.

Great condo and great location! The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, and the pool was a huge perk. I appreciated Roger’s great communication, always sending tidbits before I needed info—for checkin, for pool access, etc. I would definitely recommend and stay again!

we did a girls trip and stayed 4 days. this was the most peaceful location. Meg and her family are amazing and super friendly. the animals on-site are the sweetest babies to have as a bonus. the location is great as you are 20 min drive to Denver. I loved the view and the total experience. I will definitely be staying again

Our stay was great for our needs and short time in the Denver area. I would highly recommend Dean’s place if you are looking for a clean, safe, comfortable and affordable place to call home for a quick stay or a few nights. I have zero complaints. I especially appreciate the reasonable cost and convenience. No cleaning fee was a bonus! I think if I had my own Airbnb similar to Dean’s, I would also be willing to offer a great space for a realistic cost with realistic expectations. Thanks, Dean & family. If I am back in the Denver area again, I will gladly look you up 🙂

These cabins are about as close to Rocky Mountain park as can be, yet are still close to restaurants, coffee shops and Estes Park. The staff are friendly, and we definitely enjoyed the pool and hot tub after hiking. Highly recommended for a cosy cabin stay!
