About this property

Best location in the heart of Glenwood...see inside our BIG small town history

Stay in downtown Glenwood Springs just steps from Glenwood's best restaurants, nearly every activity is within easy walking distance. This 1500 sq ft, 2 bedroom unit built in the late 1800's is located upstairs in what was once the Palace Hotel. It has been completely renovated with some of the old things still in tact. Look at the doors; they are the original ones from the 1890's with the room numbers still on them. Doc Holiday is rumored to have stayed here. If you are coming from the Front Range consider taking Amtrak as the train station is only 2 blocks from the Watersweeper Loft. No hassles with Glenwood Canyon.

Going up the stairs you will find yourself on a great, large deck with a stone top table ,firepit and BBQ grill. Go thru the door into the enclosed sun porch and sitting area. Enter the main door and you are in the old hotel hallway. On the left is western bedroom with a queen bed. On the right is the master bedroom with a king bed occupying what was once two hotel rooms. Next is the bath and laundry. There is a Soaking tub and vanity in one room and a shower and vanity in another room. In the front you will find a complete kitchen with everything you could need and the dining room-living room area to complete the wonderful Loft with a great blend of old and new. The unit is registered with the City of Glenwood Springs and is in compliance with the short term rental regulations. Business license #9412.

Location, location!
We enjoyed our stay! Loved the old charm. Really great location, so centrally located. Just be ready to climb some stairs! Place was pretty clean, beds were super comfortable and kitchen was well equipped. Wish there had been laundry soap provided as washer/dryer were advertised. Just a pod or two would have saved us a store trip. Light on ‘extras’… so bring coffee, laundry soap and kleenex. Unfortunately, a few things broken too… bedroom door wouldn’t shut closed (hindered privacy), closet door wouldn’t open on one side, bed posts fell off both beds if touched. Could use a refresh I suppose. Unique bathroom situation, with only one toilet, but we made it work. Overall, we enjoyed the space and it was pretty great for our lil family staycation.

Outstanding Place!
We loved our stay at this beautiful place! The location was perfect for walking to restaurants and shops. The apartment itself is as charming as it is comfortable, from furniture to a well stocked kitchen. We loved staying in this piece of history as the building started as the Palace Hotel in the late 1800s. Highly recommend!

Historic Glenwood
Cozy historic property in the heart of Glenwood Springs. We loved being able to walk to most everything. It was very cute and clean. Be sure to bring your own shampoo and body wash, as it is not provided. The bathroom situation is a bit different with one toilet for the two bathrooms, but it worked fine for us.
