Overview
Bennett House is a 4-bed, 3.5-bath Victorian home in downtown Glenwood Springs, Colorado, listed under Permit #20-001. The property spans more than 3,000 square feet across three levels and sleeps up to 14 guests, making it well suited to large family gatherings, reunions, or groups traveling together. It sits just a few blocks from the town's dining and shopping district in what's billed as the "Most Fun Town in America."
Amenities & Recreation
The home is built for group entertainment, with dedicated game and movie rooms, a cozy indoor fireplace, and a generous outdoor fire pit for evening gatherings. Additional comforts include air conditioning and heating, a private patio and balcony, an outdoor grill, and in-unit laundry with a washer. The smoke-free property also provides free Wi-Fi and free parking, useful for groups arriving with multiple vehicles.
Kitchen & Dining
A gourmet kitchen equipped with a full oven/stove, microwave, and standard cookware allows guests to prepare meals for large groups on-site, a feature multiple reviewers specifically highlighted when cooking for 14 to 16 people. Beyond the home, downtown Glenwood Springs offers a dense cluster of dining options within a few hundred meters, including New American, Italian, steakhouse, brewpub, and pizza restaurants.
Location
The house is within walking distance of downtown shops and restaurants, and it sits close to public transit, with the Glenwood Springs train station about 509 meters away and two bus stops (Grand Ave + 11th St, and 9th St + Colorado Ave) both under 450 meters away. It's also minutes from the World's Largest Hot Springs Pool, Sunlight Ski Resort, and Hanging Lake, giving guests easy access to major regional attractions. Aspen/Pitkin County Airport and Eagle County Regional Airport are both roughly 36-53 km away for those flying in.
Best for
This property is best suited to large families, multi-generational reunions, and groups of friends who need space and shared amenities, given its 14-person sleeping capacity, game and movie rooms, and gourmet kitchen for group meal prep. Its downtown Glenwood Springs location within walking distance of restaurants, shops, and public transit also makes it a strong fit for travelers who want to explore on foot while using the home as a home base for regional outdoor adventures like Hanging Lake and Sunlight Ski Resort.
Travel tips
Because the home is downtown, most dining, shopping, and the Glenwood Springs train station are within an easy walk, so a car isn't strictly necessary for exploring town, though free on-site parking is available for those who drive. Guests heading to Sunlight Ski Resort, Hanging Lake, or the World's Largest Hot Springs Pool should plan for a short drive, as these attractions are described as minutes away rather than walkable. Travelers flying in should note the nearest commercial airports, Eagle County Regional and Aspen/Pitkin County, are both over 35 km away, so renting a car or arranging transport in advance is advisable.
