Amazing Place in Laramie

This property was an amazing rental in Laramie. We visited our oldest son on campus, took our youngest son on a college tour, and skied a few days in the mountains. The house was clean, well stocked, and fit our needs perfectly! The owners spent a lot of time with the details of the puzzles which made this rental even more special! You can tell that this property means a lot to them! My boys are already asking when we can stay here again!Thank you so much for a great space to rent! It truly is a unique and special property!

We had a fantastic time at this beautiful home! The house was cozy, well-stocked, and very clean. What made it extra special were the cleverly placed puzzles throughout the house. It was such a fun and creative way to engage everyone in our group, adding a unique twist to our stay. The location was perfect for nearby attractions. Highly recommend for a memorable getaway!

The most magical stay

The home is spectacular. The details throughout the home are beautiful, thoughtful and FUN! Each time we wondered if they had this or that, we would open a drawer or cabinet and there it was. They have thought of everything. The beds were really comfortable as was the entire home. The host was an excellent communicator and we just loved our stay. We can’t wait to return next year!

Puzzle House

One of the most unique houses we have ever stayed in. While we didn't think it was clear in the description, this house has 2.5 bathrooms. Very clean and well stocked. The perfect house for our football weekend in Laramie and in a great location in town. The art and fun puzzles to solve were the icing on the cake.

Great Stay

We had a great stay here while we were in Laramie! Laramie’s hotel options leave a lot to be desired so we always end up in a VRBO. Our usual option was booked so we ended up finding the “puzzle house” and I am so glad we did! It was clean, comfortable and fun! Everything in this house was well appointed and thoughtful— from the extended cords to plug in phones on night stands, to the coffee and tea bar, to the spare makeup remover wipes and toothbrushes. We had so much fun with all of the puzzles, thoroughly enjoyed our stay and can’t wait to come back!

Like a second home

We’ve stayed here many times. It almost feels like a second home. The puzzles are so clever and fun to solve. Very clean and well appointed. They’ve thought of everything. The only puzzle we have yet to solve is what haven’t they thought of!!

Beautiful upstairs bedroom and bathroom and two bedrooms, one bathroom, and laundry downstairs. Friendly hosts that reached out on check out today to make the road closures did not mess with our plans. Thank you for checking on us! We hope to stay again! It is definitely a beautiful welcoming place! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

"Inntriguing", Comfortable, Well Appointed, and Ultra Clean Home

The Inntrigue Puzzle House has earned the well-deserved number one spot on our list of favorite VRBO properties we’ve stayed at from coast-to-coast and from the far north to deep south. Ultra clean and very comfortable are just the beginning. Our hosts demonstrated their incredible thoughtfulness, not just with the unique and interesting decor, or quality bedding, linens, and towels, or the well-stocked bath supplies and paper products, or kitchen life support (a wide selection of coffee and teas – and even a couple selections of gelato in the freezer!). But also with fascinating clues that had our young-adult daughter and teenage son roaming the house for hours. I could go on (and on, and on), but will end with this. The Inntrique is truly one-of-a-kind! We will be back!
