We stayed at this property for 5 nights at Christmas, and it was the perfect setting for our family. We had 5 adults and 4 kids for the stay. There was plenty of room for all (1 family had the whole downstairs to play in). It was supplied with all that we needed. The host was very quick in response to all my questions, and even put up a Christmas tree so we could really celebrate the holiday. Close to North Pole/Santa's Workshop, Pike's Peak, Garden of the Gods, and shopping. Some of the adults hiked the trail that was across the road, and got some beautiful views of Pike's Peak. The rest of us just hung around enjoying the deck and view.
This is the 2nd time we have stayed at this property, and both times it was perfect. Communication is fast. Checking in and out is simple. The house is huge with absolutely beautiful views. We have 2 more visits to C. Springs in the future and are hoping that this property is available so we can stay here again.
We had a great stay. Beautiful views from the wrap around deck, we loved hanging out there. Enjoyed seeing all the different birds and deer. Great place for our family reunion/vacation. Convenient location to get to various attractions and to Woodland Park and Manitou Springs. Comfortable beds, plenty of pillows and bedding. 2 kitchens which came in handy. Hot tub was perfect. Communication with Mr. Laggart was great, very quick and responsive. We recommend staying here.
Gorgeous mountain views and very comfortable! We would definitely stay here again! The location was excellent. We enjoyed many evenings and mornings sitting on the deck!
This house is very family friendly. My 7 month old had plenty of room to crawl around and it was very baby safe. My 5 year old loved how she could go outside on the deck and watch for wildlife and go walking in the woods. Very comfortable stay and beautiful views. Very easy to get to just about anywhere. We would definintly stay here again.
We stayed with 12 family members total. Everyone loved the gouse and views. Close to fishing for some and city for others.I will say its bot a 5 star resort...dont expect that. We loved it though!
We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home. The location is beautiful and the host was very easy to work with and quick to respond to messages. Highly recommend!
The view from the deck was beautiful. We were close to everything we wanted to do. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of room for all of us.
Great property. Definitely a mountain property so no trails or hiking available at the location but a great place to stay in the Colorado Springs area.

I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. The Mount Esther trail, aka RTP trail head is about a quarter of a mile to the east on mountain road from the house. It is only a 5 minute walk from the house.
Absolutely loved the house, the view, and the quiet coziness you get for the price. Its nestled near Manitou Springs, Garden of the Gods, The cave settlements, and the Cave tour where you can visit the location, tire yourself out then in less than 10 mins be back at the house to take a nap to recharge. Just be mindful driving through the neighborhood there was a lot of deer roaming in the area.
It was very spacious for all 14 of us and it was very nice and affordable with a mountain view.. would definitely rent this property again in the future
Plenty of room for the three family units with kids! Nice suite downstairs. All very quiet, large rooms. Many fun hikes to do with kids a short drive away. Great communication with owner
The home was great for the two of us and would be absolutely perfect for large groups. The views are stunning, the hot tub is a fantastic bonus and the garage is great. The bed was comfy, and the couch was great for relaxing. Super easy check in and check out.
We enjoyed the house it was very spacious and plenty of room for our big group. The road is very curvy and the driveway is downhill with 3 vehicles was a bit of a challenge at first but we figured it out. The views from the back deck were beautiful.
Plenty of room for everyone, comfortable beds, open floor plan makes it really nice for hanging out together, large kitchen, laundry facilities were great, hot tub clean, and barbeque grill! Nice view of the mountains off the deck. Spent many mornings and evenings on the deck!

Thank you very much for coming out. Double thanks for helping with the situation that came up. Being out of state now, makes it hard to respond to that.
Love the spaciousness of home. It was perfect for our family. Enjoyed the wildlfe. 3 deer were busy eating and resting just below the deck every day. And the beautiful birds came to the bird feeder everyday.
Would definitely stay again.
The place was very nice. It had a lot of room. The views were awesome. Everything we had plans for was very close. The owner supplied a lot of extras for the house stay. Would diffently recommend it.
