We had a terrific stay at this property in Colorado Springs. We came to town for a family wedding, and it's spacious rooms were a much better place to meeting up than hotel lobbies. We all found the house to be charming and very nicely decorated. It's in a nice neighborhood with easy access to downtown. The hostess went above and beyond stocking the house with coffee, treats, etc. It is very well-equipped (and organized) for family cooking. The hostess communicated with us before and during the stay and is very professional. There are a lot of glowing reviews for this property on Vrbo, and in our experience they are well-deserved.

Lovely Old North End property

Great location and exactly as advertised. Plenty of space for us to spread out with nice common areas to come together. We really appreciated the snacks and coffee, plus the A/C was a godsend during our summer visit.

This is the perfect place to stay when you have a lot of family in town! It's in Old North End in Colorado Springs, a quiet and beautiful area close to Monument Valley Park. The rooms are cozy and comfortable and well decorated. It's a big, old house, very nicely outfitted with lights everywhere. There's a big living room for everyone to gather and play games and a big back deck to serve and eat meals. Beth has thought of everything anyone would ever need while staying there! I've never been to a rental home or ANY home that has all things someone would need. Communication with Beth was great. I told her it was my parent's 65th Anniversary celebration and she left a card and flowers. So thoughtful! I could go on and on about this place and what a great time my family had staying there. Don't look further than the Sumac Inn!

Fantastic!!

This is by far the best rental home I’ve ever stayed in. The location is central to everything in Colorado Springs, the home was super clean, and Beth, the host, made our stay even better with snacks, treats, and coffee/tea! Plenty of room for our large group of 10! Highly recommend.

Absolutely fantastic stay! One of the best experiences I have had renting a vacation property. The owner was so thoughtful in providing delicious snacks and stocking healthy fresh items, which helped us immensely before we could get to the store and grab our groceries for the stay.The house is more comfortable and spacious than pictures could ever show. The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet. Excellent location to get around Colorado springs and see the sights. We would love to rent this property again on future visits.

Great Property and Location

This property in located in the Old Town area of Colorado Springs. It’s convenient to many attractions of the area, and we really enjoyed the neat architecture of the homes, as we walked around the neighborhood. We’ve stayed at many VRBO properties over the years, and this is one of the best for how well it’s stocked. It’s a very comfortable place, and one feels right at home during the stay.

Fantastic home close to Colorado College

We loved this home. It is spacious yet cozy with bedrooms spread over three levels and plenty of room for the 8 people in our family gathering. The house was incredibly well stocked with lots of fresh food and we were greeted with fresh flowers and a basket of treats. The owner Beth was very attentive. All in all, it was a cut above your usual VRBO experience. We hope to stay here again!

Great place and service

Whoever is reading this, book this place. Lots of room and great historic place. Beth was easy to work with and provided all info we needed for our stay. Checkout sheet was short and quick. Great neighborhood and close to many tourist places. Shopping less than a mile and medical center even closer(thankfully we didn’t need it). Five stars for the Sumac Inn.

Still the Best

This was our second trip to this property and we never once said, “It was better last time” or, “ We should have tried a new place.” Beth is the best host, bar none.

I cannot say enough good things about staying at this house. It’s a beautiful historic home in the best part of town. Beth the owner goes above and beyond. Some examples are having food in the refrigerator and freezer, drinks, and yummy snacks and fruit. We brought our fur babies and she even left sweet new toys and beds. The basement is full of fun things for kids to do also. The house was very clean. The backyard is great and sitting on the large front porch is so peaceful. Highly recommend!

Great house for a group

Great house for a group of old college friends in their 50s who'd come to town on the heels of a football game. Lots of room. Super clean. Really well outfitted and comfortable furniture. Plenty of room, too, so nobody was on top of anybody else. So nice to have snacks. And great communication with Beth. Thanks for a great stay.

Great house for USAFA graduation

We had a great experience renting this house. Plenty of room for lots of family. Downstairs basement was perfect for our teens. Front porch was the best! Wonderful, walkable neighborhood and about 20 minutes to the academy. Owner left snacks, fruit and items in the fridge for us to use. This was so nice and appreciated.

More than a house

Beth is a host in the truest sense of the word, not just an owner renting her house. She makes her house feel like a home. Interesting furniture and decor. Well stocked pantry, refrigerator and freezer. Her home has everything you could want or need and then some. Out of the ordinary snacks and gourmet breakfast items. Great location.
