House With a Rooftop Jacuzzi

This Fort Collins Airbnb puts you so close to the attractions of Old Town that from your front door, you’ll be able to smell the hops being processed at the nearby breweries in the morning. It’s only a few blocks to reach the hub of Old Town and from there, if you want to extend your exploration, you can rent bikes from New Belgium Brewery.

The rental itself is a three-bed, 2.5-bath that eight people can share. This is a sleek unit with industrial vibes, but it’s run on green energy and is almost completely carbon neutral. Wind energy powers all the appliances and lights you see, as well as the rooftop hot tub, shared with the one other unit in the building.

Two of the bedrooms have queen-size beds while one bedroom has a king-size bed. The master bathroom has a dual showerhead, one of which is a rain shower that everyone will want to use. The second full bathroom has a double vanity for extra elbow room, and there is a half bath off the living room.

Home With Rustic Italian-Style Kitchen

This home’s unique feature is its kitchen, and from that comes the design for everything else. The brick accent wall is complemented by an adjacent stone-facade backsplash. Stained hardwood floors throughout the rest of the single-story home enhance the rustic aesthetic. The kitchen is plentifully stocked with cooking tools and basics. There is a gas burner stove top and barbecue utensils in case you want to use the grill outside.

There’s plenty of space to park in the driveway or yard, which will be very important if you’re planning to host an event here during your stay.

Modern Condo Next to Old Town

This townhouse radiates good vibes. Ten-foot ceilings, wide street-facing windows in the living room, and plush, inviting furniture are intentionally cultivated to create a positive experience that exceeds guest expectations. Cohost Kelly is your primary contact while staying in this condo rental in Fort Collins, and she can answer any questions or make recommendations if the welcome binder full of information doesn’t already have what you need.

There are two bedrooms with memory foam mattresses; one is a king-size mattress, and the other a queen. Both rooms also have blackout curtains so that you can enjoy sleeping in on your vacation. There is additional sleeping space on the pull-out sofa, which becomes a queen-size mattress. Altogether, there’s plenty of space for six guests. 

The two shared bathrooms are stocked up with things you might have forgotten at home. You have access to a washer and dryer during your stay, so you can have fresh towels every day.

Quirky Guesthouse

This bright blue home is situated a little south of Old Town and a couple blocks from the University Center for the Arts. The guesthouse is at the back of the hosts’ property and shares the yard space and basketball hoop with them.

The kitchen is in two parts: a prep space inside and all cooking surfaces in an outdoor addition, per city regulations. There is a coffee maker in the prep space as well. The stove, microwave, toaster oven, and grill, along with a set of pots and pans, are all found in the addition.

The upstairs bedroom spans the length of the dwelling with a queen-size bed on either end tucked behind some furniture for a little privacy. There is one shared full bathroom with a step-free shower. A small laundry closet holds the washer and dryer, iron, and ironing board. What makes this one of the best Airbnb rentals in Fort Collins is how prepared the space is for small children. A pack ’n’ play crib and room-darkening shades make nap times easier, and the large yard gives kids a space to play.

Remington Carriage House

Possibly the most beautiful entry on this list is this guest suite vacation rental in Fort Collins. The entire home is lovely and idyllic, and the guesthouse is no exception. From a private exterior staircase, you round the corner to the semi-private deck. French doors open into the dining room and full kitchen. Further on is the living room. Soft gray furniture breaks up the mostly black-and-white interiors, and the pullout sofa makes extra sleeping space.

The two bedrooms each have queen-size mattresses and slanted ceilings. The shared bathroom has a small shower, and the hosts warn that, although up to six are welcome to stay, it will start to feel crowded with that number. It’s the perfect amount of space for a small family trip, though, and even the youngest members of the family have been thought of in the amenities, which include room-darkening shades, a high chair, and a washer and dryer.

There is a space on the street in front of the property to park your car, and the hosts will be ready with parking permits on the day you arrive.
