There is nice patio furniture to enjoy the outdoors, gas grill (you provide the propane) and world class hiking within minutes from the house. The house sits on 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!

The kids loved all of the toys at this house. The house is very close to most of the major attractions in the area and it's set in a beautiful location. Expect to see deer out the back door most days.Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, adventure seekers.

My family would like to thank the May's for opening their home to us on such short notice. We had a great vacation around the area. The home was clean, wi-fi worked well, had all pots/pans and small things we needed to get started. The views from the home were amazing! The people in the area were all very friendly, including a neighbor across the street who advised me to drink more water because I was really lightheaded from the high altitude in Colorado...We stayed for the week and there is so much to do in this area we were busy all day everyday...My son loved the outdoors and played with a cat that visited us for milk in the mornings....The process of renting was simple and easy and we had no problems with anything, once again, thank you Nancy for making our time in Colorado memorable...Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, sightseeing, adventure seekers.

My husband and I stayed at this beautiful mountain home over New Years. It was spacious, yet very cozy. The master room was exceptional with a fantastic en-suite: a large walk-in shower and bath. This home is great for a romantic break away or a family holiday. We cannot recommend it more. It was also very close to Manitou Springs- which we enjoyed visiting. Lots of little shops and a great Fondue restaurant. Tom and SaphiraRecommended for: Families with young children, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

We had a great time in your lovely home. The best part was jacuzzi in the master bathroom and in-house bar feeling :) And ofcourse the beautiful mountain view. Garden of Gods is very close to this house. Beds were comfy and house is like new.Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, sightseeing, age 55+, adventure seekers, girls getaway.

Our vacation stay was wonderful. The home was exactly as advertised. The owners went above and beyond to enable our vacation plans. Most importantly, they were honest. We highly recommend property #199390. My wife says having this home gave our kids a great and safe place to play and unwide at the end of the day and this GREATLY contributed to a lower stress level for her (which is typically through the roof when we stay at hotels). It was relatively easy to figure out how to operate everything in the house. The master shower was so AWESOME, we did not mind squeegy'ing it after every use. We are trying to figure out how to replicate that shower in our own home. Beds and couches were very comfy, making it easy to relax while we were there. The neighbors we encountered were friendly. Good location, although my wife did not like the winding highway we had to take to get to civilization, she loved our proximity to Pikes Peak, Colorado Springs, Garden of the Gods, etc., etc.Recommended for: Families with young children, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

Our family stayed in this lovely home for a week and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! It was minutes away from just about everything we wanted to do and see around the Colorado Springs area. Pikes Peak, Cheyenne Zoo, Wolf Sanctuary (a MUST SEE), jeep rides, Garden of the Gods, etc. -- all great things to see/do. The location was perfect, the home was clean and the owners were extremely helpful with the one issue we had with a couple of the windows. They took care of it immediately and were very pleasant to deal with. We have rented many homes through VRBO over the years and were very satisfied with this one also. The master bedroom/bath is incredible. There was plenty of room for the 5 of us and all our "stuff". Enjoyed the decks and grilling out a few nights. If we had to say anything regarding an "improvement", we would update the kitchen a bit. Otherwise, we would recommend this place to anyone looking for lots of room, beautiful scenery, quiet and again, a great location as home base.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, adventure seekers.

The house was awesome! I couldn't have asked for a better vacation home near Colorado Springs. It was extremely well-appointed, and close to many attractions ... including Garden of the Gods, Manitou Springs, Pikes Peak (Cog Railway), Woodland Park, Mueller State Park and Old Colorado City. The house is very comfortable, the views are incredible and the owners are very attentive! I highly recommend and hope to stay there on a future trip to the Colorado Springs area. Thanks!Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, sightseeing, age 55+, adventure seekers.

Beautiful home. Very large and set up perfectly inside for a family. There are board games even. Very clean and well maintained. Close to everything. We even saw a black bear! That was the highlight of our trip. There are a lot of stairs up to the property and my mom had a hard time. I think that is something that is important to know. I don't think this in any of the info. But, we really enjoyed our stay.Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, sightseeing, adventure seekers.
Owner response: Thank you so much for trusting us with your vacation. We appreciate the feedback.

Owner info
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.
