Wonderful location and hosts
We stayed 4 nights and we can highly recommend this apartment. The location is perfect to explore the old town. Just a 10 minute walk from the train station but Brigitte and Christian so kindly picked us up from the train station on arrival and took us back on departure. We felt so comfortable staying there. Everything was sparkling clean on arrival. We particularly enjoyed the garden area in the quiet of the mornings and then later in the day.

Cozy Colmar Retreat
Maison Bleu is right in the heart of the old town, yet the lovely patio on the canal helps you escape and recharge. Brigitte and Christian's home has everything necessary for a great stay. It offers you the ability to dine in or easily explore the many wonderful restaurants nearby. We were able to see all the sights by foot and by the easy Kutzig bus to the charming villages in the valley. The personal touches were above and beyond, from the ride to and from the train station to the welcome basket of goodies, complete with Brigitte's jam! We are grateful we found this delightful home to rent.

A delightful stay in a fairytale village!
Brigitte and Christian welcomed us to their lovely VRBO by picking us up at the train! Their apartment is in the best location in Old Colmar, with charming , comfortable furnishings, a well equipped kitchen, and it is tight on the canal, with a picturesque bridge very nearby. Old Colmar is an intriguing, beautiful ‘trip to the past’, with medieval architecture, winding streets with shops, museums and restaurants, and the landing for a boat ride on the canal is around the corner. This stay was truly amazing, I highly recommend you reserve here.

I enjoyed every moment of my stay. It is right in the heart of Colmar, but still quiet. Loved walking to everything, especially the covered market. Enjoyed the private patio. The apartment is very clean and comfortable. Absolutely would stay here again.

Beautiful apartment right on the canal in Colmar. Brigitte and Christian are perfect hosts. Picked up and dropped us back to the train station was a plus. Colmar and the surroundings of the apartment are superb, Christmas markets at the door as are restaurants and within walking distance to sights. A very happy stay was had. Well recommended.

A little bit of magic!
La Maison Bleue is in the middle of Colmar’s Little Venice and at the very center of a magical experience. With the boats moving by in the canal with visitors marveling at this and the surrounding homes, there is a great feeling of comfort in knowing that this special place is your home for a short time. The old city is quite beautiful and this home’s character in the center of it all is extraordinary. Brigitte and Christian could not be kinder. The apartment, on the first floor of the house, is well equipped, even including homemade marmalade. The Kempfs had us drive to their home so that they could guide us through some city construction to the apartment. They were available any time if needed. It was simply 10 days of magic.

Fantastic location. Incr double hosts and wonderful authentic timber house
We loved our stay. Brigette and Christian are the sweetest two people we have met. Their home is ideally located in the Petite Venice part of Colmar. The house is authentic, on the canal, and one of the many photographic sights of Colmar. The house is as pictured but exudes so much more charm and personality than a photo can convey. The location is close to a hordes of restaurants. The house provides a soothing haven from the tourists without leaving the center of activity. I wholeheartedly recommend this home. You will have an excellent stay. Thank you Brigette and Christian for everything- the pickup snd return to the train station, and the goodies you left for us. An excellent stay with outstanding hosts.

Brigitte and Chris are friendly and nice and go out of the way to help you enjoy your stay. We had an issue with a train strike and they came to our aid like close friends would. The location is ideal, right on the canal in Petite Venice with a large patio and garden to enjoy your coffee, meal or drink. The clean snd sparkling home has everything you need to enjoy your visit. Everything is available; there is no running to the store 5 minutes after arriving to get some necessity. Next time we visit I want to stay a month. Thanks Brigitte and Chris.

Brigitte and Christian's place is perfect! It is right in the old town of Colmar - we could watch the children sing Christmas songs in their barges on the canal right from the kitchen window! An easy walk to everything. Very clean, very cozy, very pleasant. Plus Brigitte and Christian were kind enough to pick us up at the station and explain how to work things at the apartment.

I could write a long list of all the wonderful treasures received from our stay at Maison Bleue, creating sweet memories of our vacation. The house was magical, perfectly located. Open to the canal, but private. Decorated in the custom of the area. Thoughtful amenities, everything you would want for a comfortable stay. Very clean. Our host and hostess were gracious and kindly picked us up at the train station and took us there when it was time to leave. If you are looking for a fairy tale holiday, this is it.

A BEAUTIFUL FAIRYTALE HOUSE.
My daughter and I fell in love with Maison Bleue. Brigitte and Christian were all smiles when they picked us up at the train station. They drove us right to the house. At first we thought it was just a hall plus a bedroom and bathroom...but no...Christian led us into a sitting room with TV and then a little office with a door and view of the charming patio...lastly the kitchen with a view of the bridge over the river. The bridge was decked out in red geraniums which were mirrored in the water below. The perfect photo spot especially when the swans swam by. Brigitte had home made jam for us for our morning bread. Yummy too. They were both helpful in suggesting the hop on and hop off bus to some of the outlying towns along the wine road. They pointed out a couple of good restaurants too. At the end of our stay they came to collect our luggage and keep it till we were ready to catch the train to Paris. They were right on time to meet us at the station. They are a lovely couple who did everything imaginable to make out stay extra nice and comfy. We hated to depart but if we ever go back to Colmar we will stay at the Maison Bleue! Next time we would like to be there when it is warm enough to enjoy the pretty patio over looking the bridge and river. We both highly recommend Maison Blue. It was like staying in a fairy tail book story. Merici beaucoup d'avoir rendu notre etat si agreable. Pat Cunningham and CeeCee Stussi

Highly recommended - great property in ideal location!
I stayed in Colmar for 5 nights in early June and couldn't have been happier with my choice of rental flat. Brigitte was incredibly responsive and helpful in our messages before my trip, and she and Christian were generous enough to offer to pick me up and drop me back off at the nearby train station at the start and end of my stay. The property itself was spacious and as described in the listing, and I was perfectly comfortable during my time there. The bed is comfortable, the bathtub was wonderful to have for a soak after long days filled with walking, the kitchen was well-appointed. But my personal favorite (and main reason I chose this property) was the private garden patio directly on the canal. I never used the living room in the apartment because (except for one day with bad weather) I spent the majority of my waking time at the apartment sitting outside - having coffee, reading, eating, or just soaking up the surroundings. It's a beautiful private setting, and you can watch the boats and ducks go by. Outside your front door - what an ideal location if you're interested in spending most of your time in Old Town Colmar! The picturesque bridge is steps from your front door, and there are countless restaurants and shops available within steps. The covered market is just a couple blocks away, and there's a Casino grocery a few minutes further. Keep walking and you find even more streets filled with more shopping and more delicious food options. As a female solo traveler, feeling safe is incredibly important and I always felt secure at this property. There's a locked door at street entry, and another key for the apartment. The windows are secure and there's a gate you can lower for the back patio door. And even with the canal, bridge, and a couple of restaurants right outside/next door, it was never too noisy or intrusive when you were inside. For a solo traveler or small group, I can't recommend this property strongly enough! Again, Brigitte and Christian were wonderful hosts and I was perfectly at home in the flat. If I ever travel to the Alsace region again, I'll definitely check to see if I can stay here again!

Amazing Place
We had the best time staying in this gorgeous apartment. The location is amazing. You literally step out the front door into the cobbled streets. You have a lovely little courtyard which looks out onto the beautiful old houses and bridge. Bridgette was very helpful. She saved us a car park and we found is really easy to get a park when we went out. I couldn’t recommend this place more highly. It really exceeded our expectations.

A great home away from home
Not only is this apartment in a perfect location for exploring Colmar on foot, it has a special feeling that reflects the town's spirit and ambience. And what made our stay even nicer was the wonderful hospitality that the hosts, Brigitte and Christian, showed us--picking us up and dropping us off at the train station, leaving treats for us in the kitchen upon our arrival, making the booking process as smooth as possible, and answering our questions before and during our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in the apartment and on the patio, exploring and dining in Colmar, and sightseeing on our day trip along the Route des Vins, despite some cooler weather than we expected. All in all, our stay was everything we hoped it would be, and we thank Brigitte and Christian for helping to make our visit so wonderful. We highly recommend this apartment to any couple that plans to visit this enchanting town and area.

La Maison Bleue Is an authentic Alsatian house, Both charming and convenient
If you are looking for an authentic experience, la Maison Bleue is the place to come. The home has modern conveniences, especially the kitchen, yet when you sit on the patio by the canal, watching the boatsand swans float by, You will feel you’re in a time gone by. Everything is clean and well cared for in the house, the garden is beautiful, and the cherry tomatoes delicious. Brigitte is helpful and picked us up at the train which is, however, only about a 15 minute walk to the house. Next-door is a good restaurant and another across the canal. The bathroom is not quite modern as the tub is too high, but the shower works well. Momoprix is a good grocery. From the train station, You can catch a bus to the villages, but get a schedule at the train station first to figure out the times. You can hop on and off the bus for one fare, so you see more than one village. This was preferable to us for two reasons: 1. no car rental needed 2. buses drive all around each village, so you can see them. Riquevihr also Has a little white tourist train that takes you into the vineyards above the village – splendid views. In Colmar you can walk everywhere in the Old town and Petite Venise. We are an active retired couple but were able to navigate this trip without a guide, tour, or a car. One week is enough time here in Colmar and the villages. We flew into Zürich from the US.
