So pleased with our stay at the Prickly Pear
Our family was so pleased with our stay. The home really enhanced our weekend stay in Colorado's wine country. The place is beautiful and clean. We loved the backyard courtyard and the modern design of the home. It had easy and convenient parking and a large storage room for our bikes. The check-in process and communication with the owner were excellent.

Beautiful and modern home
We had a great time. The house is just perfect. Modern, super cute, and clean. The house is stocked with anything you could possibly need down to pool bag and pool noodles. We loved the private back yard too. Great place for dinner. Highly recommend!

Modern luxury in the desert
Our entire group had positive things to say about this beautiful rental. The whole space was clean, functional, and thoughtfully set up. There were towels for the pool, so don't worry about packing those. Would highly recommend!

Great place to stay
The Prickly Pear is a very nice place to stay. For us, it was close to local family and shopping/restaurants, but also in a quiet neighborhood. The place seemed fairly new and was very clean with a great layout. Check-in was very simple. Overall, a great visit.
