My husband and I stayed three nights with another couple here and what a find it was! From the moment we arrived, The owner passion for hospitality was evident in every detail, from the cozy ambiance of the rooms to the delicious breakfast spread that felt straight out of a gourmet kitchen. Speaking of breakfast, wow! Every morning, we were treated to a feast of homemade delights crafted by the owner, who also happens to be a talented chef. Each dish was bursting with flavor, and the presentation was impeccable. Overall, our first-time experience at this bed and breakfast exceeded all expectations. If you're looking for a place where you're not just a guest but part of the family, look no further. We can't wait to return!

The owners overwork they stated they have been up since 4 am and had no tolerance for teenagers and will not refund my money, I pad for two rooms and used non I wish them lots of happiness because money will not buy them that, care for your business, be less unpolite what goes around comes around you aren’t hurting me you are hurting your business.
Response from Joel on 18 Dec 2023
Patricia, thank you for your review. As is clearly stated in our booking policies, we only allow two persons per room. As you decided to have a birthday party for your teenager along with 6 other people, for a total of 9 people in one room and a quiet Bed and Breakfast. I asked for you remove your un-allowed guests. I would not refund your money as you were asked to leave around 8pm and you and your guests had already completely messed up the rooms.

Amazing
Was an amazing stay!! They allowed for a slightly early check-in to accommodate our plans, as well as making sure we knew how to get back in. The breakfast options are delicious and extra options are available to add to your beautifully prepared breakfast as well. The home feel, kind, loving service is outstanding to say the least. This bed and breakfast did not disappoint. We will be making future trips not only for bed and breakfast but brunch or tea time as well.

I had the absolute pleasure of staying at this beautiful B&B for 5 glorious days. The owners Elaine and Joel were incredibly gracious, friendly and accommodating. My room (The Anniversary Room) was even more gorgeous than the photos could ever indicate. The room was spotless, the jetted tub relaxing, the atmosphere quiet and the bed was honestly the comfortable I have ever slept on. I slept perfectly each night peacefully with no noise at all to awaken me. Each morning I enjoyed a gourmet breakfast with a fabulous coffee blend. The Scottish flare on the French toast and waffles were delightful. Sunday afternoon my daughter joined me for tea and THE MOST amazing scones, cookies and sandwiches. My daughter is a vegan and they were able to accommodate this special request. The highlight of the week was the card reading with Elaine, following our tea. She offered wonderful insights and suggestions that my daughter and I found to be spot on. In all my years of traveling, this had to be the best lodging experience with absolutely the most comfortable bed and exquisite food. Elaine especially greeted me each morning with her friendliness and a strong cup of coffee. I highly recommend this establishment for lodging and dining for weekend brunch or Victorian afternoon tea. Thank you to my host and hostess for a wonderful stay and I know I will be returning in the future.

Warm and welcoming
This place is amazing! We had so much fun and the owners are incredible people. It was clean, cozy and beautiful. It’s an old house and you can tell they are always trying to keep on top of the repairs that come with a historic house. I didn’t feel scared or uneasy once, as there is a rumor of it being haunted. We stayed in the Valentines suite. We saw a few lights in photos that were probably reflections or old windows, and a few lights flicker (old electric) and creaky noises (old house). However it was warm and welcoming and I slept like a baby! There were not many guests at the time when we came on a Sunday night and got lots of history from the owner. I would recommend this for couples, or friends looking for an adventure! Come mid week for less crowds, however, please be quiet and mindful. The owners are awesome people and live onsite. Don’t be a disrespectful weirdo. I’m an open skeptic so I don’t know if it’s haunted, what I do know is it was an amazing experience for whatever reason you come to stay. Breakfast and tea were awesome too! I don’t like spending a lot of hotels, but this one was worth it.

Great B&B option in the outskirts of Denver
My wife and I enjoyed two separate nights at the Lumber Baron Inn this November. The house is quite spectacular. The innkeepers couldn't be more gracious and accommodating allowing early check in and storage of bags on departure day. The rooms are quirky, but what can you expect from a home that was built in the late 1800's. We would stay here again.

We stayed in the Anniversary Suite. It was spacious and the appliqué wall paper on the ceiling was amazing. Some upgrades in the room would be welcome as the sink was rather old and their was no privacy in the bathroom. Jetted tub was nice (we used it twice!). Breakfast was interesting (a dish with lamb sausage!), but some juice or toast with jam would balance out the savory part. Still we enjoyed speaking with a few people and we plan on returning.

Classic building maintaining turn of the century feel with modern convenience. The room had a tiny shower and toilet, full sized sink, modern flat screen TV and AC. Beautiful wood furnishings and tile work. Fantastic renovation work has been done restoring this historic building to its former glory. Breakfast was incredible and the owners were very friendly giving recommendations to local spots. The neighbor it's in is nice and full of dog walkers so be ready to make some new canine friends if you walk the area. Just so you know there's a chance the place may be haunted, if you believe in that, but no ghosts were encountered during our stay.
