  Very comfortable, quiet, clean cottage that was a fantastic home base for our stay. Walking distance to great restaurants and shops. On street parking right in front was never a problem. Lots of movie channels to surf when we had worn ourselves out! Washer and dryer in the kitchen. Back porch is adjacent to an alley, but we never saw a soul during our stay. Tiny fenced back area made us wish we had our dog along on the trip. Mark was very welcoming.

  About me: I lived here with my wife and dog for 3 full months while on business. Location: Great. Walked to work, walked to the bars. A nice little cigar shop on the way home. Sonterra Southwestern Bar and Grill has a nice happy hour, friendly staff and good atmosphere. Amenities: It has just about everything to make your life convenient (except a dispose-all... hint-wink-nudge). Furniture is aging a bit. Everything is in the kitchen, but the kitchen isn't built for serious cooking (not something you have to worry about unless you're staying a really long time). Backyard for the dog, yay! (...sorry about all the potty) Cleanliness: It's old. Not dirty, but not clean if you're used to living in a newer apartment complex. Pet hair on old hardwood isn't fun. This facet really put my wife off, but it didn't bother me too much. Owner: Mark is awesome. Extremely friendly and helpful. We had some plumbing and weather related internet issues and he fixed them quickly even if we called him at inconvenient times. Conclusion: If you're checking out the Springs for a weekend, it's got everything. Eat out or keep your meals small and oven friendly.

  Recommended for: Pet owners, tourists without a car.

  Owner response: Wow... I'm sorry you weren't totally pleased with your stay! This is a lovely cottage and we strive to make it as wonderful for any guests as we possibly can. We've had other guests who stayed even longer than you did and they loved the location and amenities. I guess you can't please everyone all the time.

  Perfect location, especially since we were on a road trip and did not want to use the car to get to resturants etc. Close to Garden of the Gods, a must see! Size was perfect for 2 of us though the pull out couch was not a good substitute for a bed. (only one bed and 2 women who didn't want to share) Everything else was lovely. Dishes and all the details were great and well thought out. Parking was easy right in front of the house. The building was more like a cottage, but perfect for a few nights. I would love to go back. We had 2 dogs that the owner was happy to let stay. Lots of site seeing you can do with dogs. The place is kept well, clean the perfect size for 2 or a small family. Very sweet.

  Our stay at the cottage was wonderful! We had a couple requests and Mark very graciously met those requests. We took children ranging in age from 1-8, and we are slept and lived comfortably for five days. We loved having all the amenities we have at home. It made the stay with children so much easier. The place was very nice and exactly like the pictures show. This was way better than any hotel room stay would've been. It was nice to be mintues from away from so many things. Anytime I had a question Mark responded in a timely mannor. Loved it and would highly reccemend it.

  My husband, three dogs, elderly mom and myself enjoyed our stay at the cottage. It is in a very quiet neighborhood and close to the downtown area as indicated. It has all the amenities of home. The owner's have it tastefully decorated and very comfortable. The only two complaints that we had was that somehow the floors were not cleaned after the previous tenants left so we had to mop the floors ourselves which were very dirty and loaded with dog hair. However, the landlord was very gracious and apologetic, along with compensating us for this being overlooked. Also, we were not able to let our dogs use the backyard to do their duties as there was nothing but fine dirt out there and this made our three white dog's paws turn gray and sooty which tracked into the kitchen so we had to leash them and bring them out on the streetside where there was some grass and leaves. So if you have a longhaired dog, this may not work for you. It was alot of work leashing our three dogs everytime they had to go out and this was one of the reasons I chose the rental because of the fenced in backyard. Overall, everything else was neat and clean, but as indicated, a very small bathroom which you had to walk through the whole house to get to from the bedroom, so if you need to use the bathroom during the night, this is an inconvenience. Otherwise, it really is a nice place and we probably would have enjoyed it more had we left our dogs at home!

  Our vacation was really nice and the house was exactly as described. The property was really quiet and relaxing. Virtually everything you could need during your stay is furnished in the house. We were really impressed with the hygiene and cooking items that were there. The sleeping arrangements were adequate and the entertainment that was provided was great. I highly recommend staying here and would do so myself again. The home owners were very helpful with all the questions and concerns that we had.

  The cottage is as advertised. Small, clean, comfortable. Owners were helpful and responsive. For a basic place to stay in Colorado Springs, this worked well.

  We stayed at the house for one week with two adults and two dogs and it was perfect. The bed was delightful to sleep on and while the house is not huge it was the perfect size for us. There was off street parking, wireless internet, full size washer and dryer, grill, and a nice tv with cable in the main room. There was everything we could ever want! We were located just off downtown and we walked to dinner and ice cream several times as it was an easy walk. We enjoyed the Phantom Canyon Brewery as well as Josh and John's Ice Cream as well as the walk itself. For dogs it was about ten-fifteen minutes from several dog friendly areas including our absolute favorite Bear Creek, trails in North Cheyenne Canon Park and Garden of the Gods. Also a very short drive to the Olympic Training Center and pretty easy to get on several highways which take you to Canon City (Royal Gorge and white water rafting) as well as Florissant (fossil beds). The owners were wonderful and very easy to work with(even after we got lost trying to get to the house!) while providing everything anyone would need to stay in the house. The listing description was accurate and everything was exactly as it was pictured. I would highly recommend the owner and the property.
