An Old Town Oasis

About host

Tessa Lapray and Shannon Folster

Hello! We are Tess and Shannon, two best friends who met in 2018 during Peace Corps service in Myanmar.

In 2020, we moved to Colorado together, got bartending jobs, and wove ourselves into the Old Town community.

In 2023, Tess lost her beloved dog, Sydney, an Australian Shepherd. She had boundless energy and a spirit that brought the wild out in all of us.

As the wild women we are, a year after her passing, intuition for change hit. We quit our jobs, flipped the home into a business, and took off into the world to fulfill a dream of slow travel and intentional living.

The dream meets reality as we learn the ins and outs of running a business from the road, trusting our team on the ground, and balancing the awes of travel with the commitment that each guest have a five star experience.

Book a stay, follow along,  tell a friend!
