Holden House 1902 Bed & Breakfast Inn

Frommer's Review

Innkeepers Sallie and Welling Clark restored this storybook 1902 Colonial Revival-style Victorian house, the adjacent carriage house, and the 1898 house next door, filling the rooms with antiques and family heirlooms. Located near Old Colorado City, the inn has a living room with a tile fireplace, a front parlor with a bay window, verandas, and a lovely garden out back. Guests enjoy 24-hour coffee and tea service with a bottomless cookie jar, an afternoon wine social, and a gourmet breakfast in the formal dining room. Smoking is not allowed and pets are not permitted -- except the two resident cats, Mingtoy and Muffin.

Two suites are in the main house, two are in the adjacent carriage house, and one is in the second home. Each guest room bears the name of a Colorado mining area and contains memorabilia of that district. All have sitting areas, queen-size beds, fireplaces, CD/DVD players, and tubs for two. The Cripple Creek suite features Victorian fretwork in the sitting area, a mahogany fireplace, and a magnificent Roman marble tub. The Independence Suite, in the adjacent building, is accessible to guests with disabilities and is located in the house next door.
