Winter in Fraser
House is nice proximity to Fraser & Winter Park. Easily accessible. We had 3 couples & 2 singles. Property manager is easy to reach with any questions or concerns. Host was easy to communicate with. The only negative is we could not get the heat adjusted properly to a comfortable temperature. We found it to be too hot or too cold . I’m sure it was just our inability to adjust the nest thermostats. All in all it accommodated our needs !

Fabulous home in perfect location - homely with plenty of room for our family reunion of 12 adults. Very clean, fully stocked with everything we needed. Beds were comfortable with warm, good quality duvets. Owner was very responsive both prior and during our stay - nothing was too much trouble! Would have no hesitation recommending this lovely home.

Fantastic for Families
This was one of our best rental experiences. The house was "as advertised" with abundant room for our group of 4 adults and 3 kids. The property had numerous activities for the kids to be outside, and the location was very convenient to Frasier and all of its amenities.

Family Gathering
Five grandchildren were completely exhausted by the end of the day. There were so many activities right on the property for adults and children, including the walking trails. They were also a nice "get-away" for those times when quiet times were needed. The location is excellent, as we were able to do three fabulous hikes, all within a twenty minute drive. The Continental Divide Trail allowed us to see three alpine lakes, and we hiked down to King Lake. We were also able to take in an outdoor concert in Winter Park. There were six adults, (eight for a couple of nights) and five children, We would most definitely return.

A Fabulous Family Reunion
The property was more remote than the listing made it appear...something that delighted us (but it was still only 5 minutes from the grocery store). The house was beautiful, but we delighted even more in walking around the woods and visiting the teepee and seeing some deer.

Colorado Christmas
My family of 12 people traveled from Texas by van and stayed in this amazing home for five days between Christmas and New Years. It was our family's Christmas Celebration. The house is beautiful! Enough beds for 14 to sleep on and plenty of couches and seating for us all to gather and eat meals. The kitchen has so many dishes, utensils, pots and pans, and a large coffee maker that brews 14 cups at a time. Every detail has been thought as far as the accommodation in the house!! We had lots of snow while there and the driveway and walkways were kept plowed and shoved during our stay. The house is about a 15 minute drive to Winter Park resort for skiing and a five minute drive to the grocery store. Our family loved the privacy of the property and the proximity to all the winter activities we chose to do. We highly recommend this lovely home and will for sure stay there again on future trips to Fraser, CO area!

Christmas at Blue Ranch
This was a very comfortable , older home that accommodated our family of ten very nicely! It was close to the ski areas as well as tubing and we especially loved the acreage for the kids to play in the snow❣️The property caretaker was great and all of our needs were met cheerfully in a timely manner. I would definitely stay here again with a large group.

Thoughts on Fraser Property
Pros~ always had hot water, Daisy was very personable and unobtrusive, enjoyed deck and games to play, location is close to town, trails are nice, well stocked kitchen, hot tub was nice Cons~ no air conditioning and some rooms did not have windows to outside and were warm, felt like Daisy's kids were watching us in hot tub several times, brick around decorative stove in kitchen area was a hazard...7 out of 11 of us hit a toe on it more than once, 4 AM train whistle, less privacy on grounds then led to believe with pictures (other house nearby and caretaker (and family) lives on the backside of the house Feedback~ Would recommend a garbage disposal, be clear that 2 twin beds are in an alcove with no door, would be sure guests are able to lock up house (we never received a key and were not able to lock doors, when asked about it we were told that it wasn't a concern) *Overall we had a good trip and the house worked for us, but would probably try out a different property next time. Thank you!

Stayed here with 8 friends for a long weekend of golfing and outdoor fun. This property is in a great location and has plenty of room for outside games and relaxation. Kitchen was the best stocked (pots, pans, cookie sheets, utensils, etc.) that I have ever seen. Beds very comfortable; great owner and on-site host/caretaker. Would recommend.

If you have kids aged 5 to 11 this place is for you! We stayed here and there was 5 adults and 4 kids and it was a blast. The property has lots of character and plenty of space for imagination. The house might be the best hide and go seek house I have ever been in. The observation tower was also a favorite for the kids. Overall, this place exceeds our expectations. Great place..... would totally come back! Beds were great and kitchen had nice plates, cups and cooking needs. Bathrooms had plenty of towels and were clean. Again..... this house was great!!!!
