Perfect Location
I absolutely loved the location. It was quick and easy to get to Manitou, Garden of the Gods and Colorado Springs. I felt safe in the home, neighborhood and everywhere I visited. I was a lone female traveler so I want other lone females to know it is a great area.
The house was very clean and had everything I needed within reach. You can tell the owners care about this property. I have been in VRBO homes where the deeper cleanings are skipped and it shows. This house had clean baseboards, blinds, doors, cabinet fronts etc. I very much appreciated that kind of cleanliness and love for the property.
Communication, check in and check out were all very easy. And I was in disbelief when a couple of beautiful deer came prancing down the sidewalk right in front of me while getting out of the car at the house. So drive carefully and slowly, especially at dusk and dawn.
I look forward to returning to the area and would absolutely rent this home again.

Fantastic communication and welcome
Property owner was top notch with communication - fast replies, info and rental was ready early even though we weren't. House is on a nice street for walking your dog. Unfortunately there are a lot of homeless people in the area/neighborhood, on the streets and sleeping on sidewalks. We had a great time visiting with our nephew. Went to Rudy's BBQ nearby for takeout which was very good. And the next day, before we left, we stopped at The Jive Coffee Shop only a few blocks away and had the best breakfast croissant sandwich and iced mocha to go. Overall, I would highly recommend this owner, we would stay here again if we came back to the area. The house was clean, cute little setup and well stocked for our needs.

Wonderful long weekend getaway
This house is cuter than the photos, it has character and I loved it! The backyard was a great place to relax and unwind after whatever adventure we may have been on. It had everything we needed in the kitchen, bathroom and bedroom, plus extra. There really are deer in the neighborhood, we came back one night and there they were right across the street! The location is absolutely perfect for anything in the Pikes Peak area. Communication with Christina was easy and clear, making check in and out a simple process. I hope if I'm back in town, it is available again!

Great Home Base for Colorado Springs
The home was as advertised. Clean, comfortable, nicely decorated and in a great location. We had a party of 4 so it worked well with the two bedrooms. The beds were comfortable and the ability to regulate the temperature in the home [to combat some of the mid-day heat] was really nice. Sometimes rentals will hard code the thermostat :)
The kitchen was perfect and had living room had just enough room for us to enjoy a late evening.
The neighborhood was quiet and we got to meet the neighbors who were very nice.
If I had to suggest any improvements it would be update the carpeting, ceiling fans and add more incandescent lighting in the kitchen and living room. These items are definitely not problematic but would be the cherry on the top of a great vacation rental!!

We had a great stay! Host thought of everything. So many more little extras you don’t see in most rentals. We brought our dog and the yard was perfect for him since it was totally fenced. Short walk to OCC Brewing Co and short drive to Garden of the Gods. We walked there every morning. This was the best place we’ve stayed yet in our Colorado adventures!

No detail has been overlooked here. Everything you could possibly need is provided. The entire house is comfortable & well lighted- a welcoming space. We stayed 4 nights during March. We appreciated the warm furnace, cozy furniture & the umbrellas. The neighbors were quiet. We were able to walk easily around Old Colorado City from this location. The host was friendly & helpful.

Fantastic!
This house is in a great location! Walkable to old Colorado City, a short drive to many different amazing hikes, and a nice quiet neighborhood a couple of blocks away from a park. Perfect little backyard for lounging in the afternoon with a drink and our dog or enjoying the cool crisp air in the morning with our coffee. Owner was super responsive and easy to communicate with. House is truly fully stocked. Can’t recommend it enough, we will definitely be back!

Great Location
House was perfect for everything we wanted to do in Colorado Springs. It’s close to walk into old town and grab great bbq,shop, and drink great beer. Dog friendly and easy to walk to a park and just stroll around a great neighborhood. Lots of wildlife around the area and was startled more then once with a big deer on front of the house. We saw black bear when we took the train up to Pikes Peak, Deer everywhere, saw a Rocky Mountain big horn sheep at Garden if the Gods. Great home don’t hesitate to book it!!!
