Positives first:*Canon City is beautiful and has alot to offer!*We requested a Christmas Tree be placed in the house since we were celebrating in CO!Negatives (ALOT):*Location of home is close to the Department of Correctional Facility. *Home is way smaller than mentioned and pictured.*Home has alot of repairs needed: kitchen countertops (knife marks and scuffs), kitchen cabinets (old and doors/drawers wouldn't close properly), hole in floor/no flooring (this was covered by a rug), base boards missing (the whole entry/laundry area/parts of kitchen).*No utensils to properly cook. The one spatula there was burnt and melted (not usable). I had to buy utensils so we could cook meals. Pans are also missing, 9x13 sheet pans, and baking pans for lasagna or cassaroles.*Nails sticking out of the floors. My children were playing and their clothing or socks got caught on the nails. We went throu 3 pairs of socks in 5 days.We only slept at the location, had to reschedule our Christmas to another house due to the size of house. We stuck it out but, will not book here again when we return.Thanks.of Correctional Facility.

Hi Cozett, thank you for taking the time to leave your review. The homeowner would like to address your concerns:
- We did put a Christmas tree up as requested, and while it was artificial to avoid any issues with pests, we hoped it added to your celebration.
- Regarding the location, the home is near historical prisons, which are a part of Canon City's history.
- The home's photos were professionally taken to reflect the property accurately.
- The kitchen and home furnishings are used by many guests, and we apologize if any cookware or utensils were missing during your stay. Unfortunately, we weren't made aware of this during your visit, or we would have been happy to assist.
- There are no nails sticking out, as the floors were recently installed. The rug in the entry area covers an access point for maintenance purposes and is there for convenience.
We appreciate your feedback and will use it to continue improving the guest experience.
Shopped downtown.

The beds were very comfortable. The shower was nice. The front yard was nice for the dogs the back yard they had to be on a leash. Cute little place. The neighbors were so nice and the location was perfect. Close to everything we wanted to do.

We were in Cañon City for 2 nights to visit our mom. The price of this house was very affordable, but it was kind of rough. I am hoping it is a work in progress, but it doesn’t seem like the improvements are being done that well. The beds and couch were comfortable, which was important. The appliances in the kitchen were updated and I loved the cute coffee cups, but the kitchen was not outfitted with many essentials and the cabinets and countertops were ancient. The bathroom was clean and I had no issues with anything there, although it was tiny. All in all, the house was just ok.
This is an old house in need of restoration. The internet and subsequently Television did not work. Property manager reacted swiftly. Provider came promtly, replaced cable and Router but still didn't work. Bathroom was small but clean. There were no wash cloths on site. Beds were clean and comfortable. Exterior of house needs remodeling and landscaping left a lot to be desired.
