Mapleton Hill - Artists Colorful Apartment in Welcoming Home

Please note: The City of Boulder limits short term rentals to a maximum of 29 days and thus we can only offer rentals for 29 days or less - thank you for your consideration.

Coronavirus Update:
Susurro is cleaned per local and state recommendations with 1 day vacant between guests.

Please note Susurro is entirely independent of the rest of our home, meaning that there is no shared ventilation, which makes Susurro an even safer place for you to stay. We welcome any and all suggestions for keeping you healthy during your stay.

Update:
January 25, 2023 - we have replaced our beautiful antique stove ( truthfully - that was a challenge to cook on) with a new contemporary inductive electric stove (with convection and air fry oven) due to recent research documenting the health hazards associated with gas stoves and replaced all stove related cooking utensils.

We replaced the living room sofa with a Room and Board sleeper couch that is very comfortable.

Additionally we will be solar powered with the installation of photovoltaic panels towards the end of February 2023. We have installed an EV charger (Level 2 ChargePoint 48amp) that is fee for the first time use as well.

Welcome to Boulder, Colorado...everything you want from a big city, yet it feels like a small town; world-class restaurants and shops, a major university, an abundance of cultural events, a plethora of year-round outdoor activities and lots of music from around the globe.

Minutes from downtown Boulder, walking distance to excellent coffee and tea houses, restaurants, bakery, shopping, well equipped grocery store, trails and more. Our artist’s home is located within a quiet, historic residential district known as Mapleton Hill. 'Susurro' - our sunny and light, very private garden/walk-out apartment has a separate entrance and is part of our recently eco-remodeled home originally built in 1910. Our 750 sq. ft. apartment is colorful, eclectically furnished, with hot water baseboard heating, solar powered, all domestic water filtered, cork floors, lots of light, antique cooking stove, custom trim, open layout, split level (with two steps) - living room/dining room/kitchen, hand painted floor, and mosaic tiled bathroom floor. Our home is a “come and borrow a cup of organic sugar” kind of home. Please note - Susurro is exceptionally well insulated however, we live upstairs, we are very quiet and we do not wear shoes inside our home. If you need total silence please reconsider - you will hear soft footsteps but never voices and in eight years we have had only two complaints.

'Susurro' is two blocks away from the foothills of the Rockies with great hiking trails, and the continental divide only a thirty-minute drive away. We are a 30 minute drive to Denver; 30 minute drive to Eldora Mountain Resort, 60 minute drive to Rocky Mountain National Park, and a 1.5 to 2.25 hour drive to Loveland, Winter Park, Breckenridge and Vail ski areas.

Boulder has year-round sunshine. The winter season usually brings brief snow storms followed by beautiful sunny days. It's not uncommon to have warm weather in the high 60s-70s in February and March. Late spring and summer offers warm days, wonderful thunderstorms and few airborne pests. Please note - we do not use pesticides or insecticides in Susurro, so you will occasionally find spiders. If this is a problem please make other arrangements. Falls are warm with cool nights and some of the most amazing displays of light and color.

Well cared for and behaved dogs are welcome.
