We couldn't find a place for the family that made sense in Golden for Colorado School of Mines' Friends & Family weekend, so we decided to try this VRBO. The apartment is very well equipped, I was sad we didn't cook much more than toast there, the beds were spectacular, and it was very comfortable. We just used it as a base to go to Golden, and it felt closer than we expected. Adults had done been to Idaho Springs before, so knew how charming the town is, and had done the Argo Mine tour but not the kids. They (10, 13) loved it even more than we had! If you book this VRBP, make sure to look at the photos to see where your parking space/the house entry is, we somehow missed that and it took a half second to figure out, but that was a result of my not reading the emails.
