About this property
2BR♥Mountain&Lake view♥Hot Tub+MiniGolf+Pool Table
Enjoy 2020-constructed whole-lower-walkout suite for privacy, ample space, and incredible views. Includes IN-GARAGE PARKING! Near the Air Force Academy and Colorado Springs sites. This listing reserves the whole lower floor for a completely private stay; main level is owner occupied, but access is completely separated. Relax on private outdoor patio by a fire, watching the sunset over views of a beautiful mountain lake and the Front Range. Please see guidebook for much more!
Guests enjoy the full walkout lower level with a private entrance and parking. The ceilings are over 9 feet and there are oversized windows throughout—it does not feel like a ‘basement’! The entire space includes 2 bedrooms with locks, 2 full bathrooms and a spacious common area with gas fireplace, Smart TVs (Wifi included—watch via our Netflix account, or log into your own viewing App), and a pool table, plus a large furnished outdoor space with a bbq grill, ample seating around a propane fire-pit, and--best of all-- incredible scenic views of a mountain lake and the Rocky Mountains.
Please check out the Explore tab on our site at fly-by dot net.
We've named the suite "The Fly-By" because our property is situated along the path that military jets take as they fly low-altitude across the US Air Force Academy. Several times per week we enjoy the "sound of freedom" crossing over us with up-close views of our nation's phenomenal air-power. We love it, and hope you do to! Follow “USAFA Flyovers” Tweets to know when to step outside to see these amazing aircraft at close range!
Our space is not 420 friendly and does not allow smoking (cigarettes or marijuana) at any time.
Guest access:
With this listing, you will have full private access to the entire walk-out basement level.
Other things to note: One bedroom has a queen bed, the 2nd bedroom can have either a King or two twins, PLUS a twin-bunk bed. Sleep an additional person on sectional couch (NOT a pullout sleeper). The suite has a complete kitchen (fridge, stove/oven, microwave, and dishwasher). We provide the basic cookware for cooking and dining. The suite also has its own washing machine and dryer. One stall of the attached garage is available to guests--an especially good treat to yourself during winter bookings and gives valuable piece-of-mind during frequent Front Range summer hail storms.
Available in suite: infant high chair and infant 'pack-n-play'; iron and ironing board; and cooking spices you need for that special meal you want to cook.
You get the entire lower level of this custom home. One stall of the attached garage is yours to use during your stay.
We live on the upper level of the home, so we can quickly respond to any needs/issues that arrive. Otherwise, we tend to leave guests alone to enjoy their stay as a private retreat. Parking and entrances to the suite are completely separate from those of the upper level, so you can come and go as you please!
The property overlooks the beautiful lake of the "Forest Lakes" subdivision. Unfortunately, we are not part of the Forest Lakes HOA, so we cannot offer access to the lake (the scenery is free, though!).
The location is rural, so a vehicle is necessary. The neighborhood roads are gravel. Parking is ample and right next to the house.
The property is on a gravel road, and the new driveway can be slippery when wet or snowy, so please drive carefully.
The property has two driveways. Fly-by guests should enter the East drive (farther from mountains). Go around the house to the left to the walk-out basement level. Park in front of the basement's left overhead garage door on the concrete pad. Enter the suite through the left garage door (keypad is to the right of the door), or walk down the sidewalk to the entrance door under the patio.

About the host
Hosted by Jason Schott
We settled in beautiful Colorado in 2018 after 25 years of moving around the continent while serving in the military. We built our dream home here and we are excited to share this special getaway with you. We truly hope you enjoy it as much as we did building it.
We've named the suite "The Fly-By" because our property is situated along the path that military jets take when they fly low-altitude across the Air Force Academy located a just couple miles to our South. Several times per week we enjoy the "sound of freedom" crossing over us with up-close views of our nation's phenomenal air-power.
We hope you stay with us!
Sincerely,
-Jason and Emily

Why they chose this property
Situated near so much of what makes Colorado a destination for your vacation! Minutes from I-25 to get to everything you on your list of attractions. But you may not want to leave--the suite is packed with entertainment (pool table, pickleball/basketball court, ping pong, mini-golf, darts, horseshoes, etc). Relax on the private patio by the fire pit, grill up a steak on the bbq, and watch a bald eagle hunting fish on the lake. Wow!
What makes this property unique
This 2020-completed modern home is designed specifically to accommodate guests for privacy and an amazing view of the mountain lake and the Colorado Front Range mountains. The space is large and excellently apportioned with 9 foot ceilings and oversized windows in bedrooms and living room/kitchen--it does NOT feel like a basement. The property is fenced with private gates for assurance of security. We (the owners) live above the suite, but are empty-nesters and we keep to ourselves without noisy pets or children, so the atmosphere is tranquil and relaxing.
