We stayed in the Ramona in August and it was fabulous. We felt like we really "got away" even though Manitou Springs was only minutes away for anything you need. It was clean and comfortable. The hot tub was great. The hiking trail up the street was our favorite part and was beautiful. We'd love to return soon.Recommended for: Tourists without a car, girls getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway.

For starters, the location is awesome. The owners are two of the nicest people on earth. The house is adorable with charm. Wish the front window had curtains for night time privacy. The view is so awesome, the giant picture windows were stared out every moment we were indoors. The porch also provided a great view. The master bed is one of the most comfortable. Convenient to everything. We rode horses, hiked, went to a drive-in movie, shopped in town, dined out, went to the North Pole, river rafting, vineyards, Royal Gorge, you name it, we have done it. The only down side it the claw foot tub. Gorgeous, but not convenient. Most of us shower, so we all had to use one bathroom for that. Slowed us down a bit. I have recommended this place to lots of friends. We will definitely be back. I cannot say enough good things about the owners. Love Bob & Sandy. If you are considering this place, GO! You will love it too! Just take really good care of it. I want it to stay nice for my family. See you next year Ramona Cottage.Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

My Wife and I were married in Red Rock park in Denver and spent a wonderful honeymoon at the Cottage 3 years ago. The owners were very friendly, invited us up to their place, and even left us chocolate covered strawberries when we returned from our vows that night. I am starting to plan another trip up there for our 4 year anniversary. I loved everything about the cottage and location. I definitely want to explore a lot more on the next visit. The only draw back to the entire trip was the motion lights kept going on late in the evening, scaring the crap out of both of us thinking it was a bear or mountain lion. A few nights later coming back from Cripple Creek we finally saw the culprit, a fat cat sleeping on the wicker loveseat on the front porch. I still get a laugh out telling that story to family and friends. Looking forward to visiting again.Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with teenagers.

I stayed in Ramona Cottage with my wife and we both enjoyed the tranquility and charm of the place. The owners were very accommodating and the walking trails nearby were beautiful. We will be back!Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.
Owner response: We take pride in our property and make it comfortable for our guests. The favorite among our guests is the great hikes across the mountain stream and up to the waterfall for a picnic.

Our group came out for the Pikes Peak Auto Hillclimb and had a wonderful time. The owners are very helpful, the place incredibly comfortable. Well located right at the bottom of the Peak. Excellent library with lots of local information. Love the hot tub!Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2001
About the owner: Bob and I came out to Colorado in 1997 and fell in love with the mountain town of Cascade. Being close to Colorado Springs and Manitou Springs, the airport and all needed shopping areas, we felt if we were going to live in Colorado we had to be in the mountains. We purchased the B & B and then the Ramona cottage. We love entertaining and gourmet cooking.
Why the Owner Chose Cascade:
This area is a great place to view the mountains and getaway from the city.
The Unique Benefits at this Cottage:
The cottage is just a short walk to the Wines of Colorado as they offer wine tasting and great entrees for lunch or dinner,or Mildreds Cafe has great breakfasts, and homemade cinnamon rolls to die for. We are close to the drive up Pikes Peak or visiting Santa's Workshop at the North Pole.
