If you love the outdoors and are looking for a lovely place to stay you've come to the right place! This home is on 5 acres in Black Forest, a great community on the north end of Colorado Springs. The property is private, quiet, and secluded, yet close to shopping, restaurants, movie theaters and many areas for sight seeing. It is only about 8 miles to the North Gate of the USAF Academy so is great for those visiting cadets or attending Parents' Weekend, Graduation, Induction Ceremony, hockey, basketball or football games, etc. If your son or daughter is entering the USAF Academy, why not plan a few days at our house before they start Basic Training? It would give you and your cadet time to learn about the area and to begin acclimating to the high altitude.

We are also close to Focus on the Family, Compassion International, and New Life, for those in town for missionary training or other events hosted by these organizations.

Our own home is on the adjacent 9 acres and we have room for your horses there if you are bringing them along. Please contact us for additional information on this great place!

  • When I first walked in the door the decor took my breath away. The pictures don't do justice to the beauty of the furnishing and the comfortable layout of the home. This house would be perfect for a family of all ages (my Mom is 83), especially the downstairs family room. The furnishings are beautiful, everything is immaculate, perfectly done, and the attention to guests comfort is seen everywhere: from the goody basket that welcomed us in the kitchen, to the radient heated floors in the master bathroom. We loved this home and will stay here on our next visit to Colorado Springs. The location can't be beat, central to everything and yet tucked away in the 'Black Forest' area amidst the pines to give you the feeling of being 'away' while still within minutes of anything you need to get to in the city. We were lucky enough to meet the owner, Lauri, who is an incredibly gracious host and who we now count as a friend.

  • This property is all it advertises to be, and more. Absolutely immaculate, easy access to local attractions but still have the feel of being "away from it all," and completely trouble-free. Our family of 7 would stay here again in a heartbeat -- we'll be back!
