The second bedroom upstairs is delightful and spacious, with vaulted ceilings, a ceiling fan, special lighting, a queen size bed, surrounded by stuffed animals...even a rocker. The closet in this room is huge with lots of shelves. This bedroom also has a Pella slider which takes you out to the back deck with incredible views of Pikes Peak.

The house sits on 1 1/2 acres, on the side of Pikes Peak, so you have lots of privacy and will truly feel like you've escaped to the mountains!
The house is baby proofed with outlet covers, hearth covers and a locking secure gate at the top of the stairs. A full size Eddie Bauer highchair and a full size crib are included, with sheets, a rocker and changing table to make your stay super convenient. We know you need this to be your home away from home, so lots of books and toys are provided as well for those special little people.
There is so much to do in this area with wonderful quaint restaurants, hiking and a lake with a new play ground, fishing and ducks, plus the city of Colorado Springs is only 10 minutes away! To the west of us, about 5 minutes, is the awesome, brand-new Walmart. Skiing is easy, jump on hiway 24 and your only a hour and 1/2 away.
We invite you to enjoy our home-away-from-home! We love it... you will too!

Map & Owner's Profile
Huge, Custom Home W/Frpl, Rec W/Bar, Baby Ready, Dsl, 3 Acres!
Year Purchased: 1993
Why the Owner Chose Cascade
My husband and I purchased this home the year we were married and have loved it ever since! It is the ideal location...in the mountains, very private...but minutes from Woodland Park and Colorado Springs. It started as a small summer home back in 1932 and after a massive expansion over 7 years ago...it is now a huge, spacious, beautiful, custom home that "6" years of guests have enjoyed and raved about.
The Unique Benefits at this House
The location is key...our guests agree. You are minutes from a major city and shopping, yet the setting offers the peace and serenity of mountain living. You will have all the comforts of home and then some...from high speed internet, fireplace in the dining room, custom 12 jet shower...the works! You are also minutes from world class fishing, hiking, restaraunts...it truly does not get better.

I just wanted to send you a quick e-mail to thank you for opening your home up to my family. We had such a relaxing, fun vacation in Co. Springs. It was just what we needed! The area was absolutely beautiful and your home provided a wonderful get-away for us. We hope to come again in the future.

We had a wonderful time at your home. My grandchildren could not have been happier, they felt right at home with all the toys. Thank you for allowing us to stay. Maybe we can do it again next year.

Hi Nancy, We had just a delightful time in your home. Eric and I have a 16 month old named Ian and your home was just perfect for our little guy. Big Bear got his share of hugs and he loved playing with all the toys. Thank you again, we are exhausted today from a very fun time.

The house was beautiful, wonderful, spacious... did I say beautiful?!? We got some snow too! I can honestly say, there are not many places where I'd be happy to be stranded, but a mountainside house in Cascade tops the list. The trip was wonderful. I have already given the VRBO link to many family members and friends.

We had a lovely visit in your Colorado home. The house was comfortable with all the conveniences. I especially appreciated having a washer, dryer and dishwasher. So often when you rent a house they are not available. The wireless internet was also a bonus. Tracking each days practice results and the race helped keep us in touch with what was going on. My husband won the PPIHC race for his class too!
