One of the easiest places to stay. Location was great, host is amazing to work with. Don't have a single complaint about our stay. Would stay again and would recommend to someone as well.
We had a wonderful stay! Everything about the property was comfortable and thoughtfully done. The roof deck had especially great views. It was a very convenient location for downtown Colorado Springs and exciting hikes like Red Rocks and Garden of the Gods.
My 3 friends and I were very happy with our stay. The house had everything we needed. The host was very accommodating and the special welcoming treat was a perfect way to celebrate a birthday for one of usTo top it off, we were able to be on the roof to view the total eclipse of the moon.Thank you so much!

I am so glad you enjoyed the Adobe. Big bonus watching the eclipse!
Counting Stars Adobe is the most warm and inviting home away from home. Everything has been thought of that you might need and the owner responds promptly to questions. Off street parking with garage is a plus as was the rooftop observatory at night. The kitchen was not only well stocked but easy to use. The home was super clean and the air conditioning keeps the home comfortable.
Listing was clear, and the place had everything we needed. The host was easy to communicate with and provided plenty of information before and during our stay so we could enjoy our time in COS.
This property is a must-great location, clean and a no stairs master bedroom on the main level which is hard to find in Colorado Springs! The owner is extremely responsive and super helpful. Check-in is easy highly recommend.!!
From reservations to check out, our host exceeded all our expectations. The location was ideal to everything in the area. Every guest need was anticipated and provided for. Communication was timely and friendly. Beds and chairs were extremely comfortable and the linens and towels were great. The water heater seemed endless. Our host even made us a yummy welcome cookie. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.

Thank you so much for your sweet words. I am so glad you enjoyed your stay for your girl's trip!
Host was excellent to work with and was able to provide great ideas on things to do around town. We appreciated the location of the property as it was easy to get to areas of interest. The deck area with a fire pit is a great place to hang out.
We had a wonderful time! The place was absolutely perfect- clean, cozy, and thoughtfully stocked with everything you could possibly need. Highly recommend and would stay again.
This property was perfect for our girls trip! It was clean, close to everything we did. There was a garage for us to park our vehicle in and the rooftop area was perfect!
This property was amazing - the hostess thought of ever imaginable detail and our almost 3 week stay could not have been more magical. The location is perfect for hiking and sites to visit. This was a great stay for my adult children and myself to “shelter in place” over the Christmas holiday.

Our family enjoyed our spring break at Counting stars, home was impeccable, cozy furniture and we had a great time in the area. Being close to main attractions is a plus and with access to nearby stores and restaurants.
Our guest made check in and out very convenient and was accesible.

Thank you so much. We could barely tell you had been at the house you left it so picked up. I am glad you had perfect weather for hiking and time to spend with family. You all are welcome back anytime!
My husband and I love the Colorado Springs area are thrilled to be able to call this beautiful area home. We fell in love with this home immediately and decided to make it our "home" away from home and to share this unique living experience with others. The feeling you get from sitting on the roof top deck is unparalleled from most vacation lodging. We have lived all over the world and have moved many times and feel so fortunate to make the Pikes Peak Region our permanent home. We have worked very hard to make this home an unique lodging and "homey" experience for the traveler. We hope this vacation home will become a favorite lifetime memory for you and your family.
By also living in the area I am available if the need arises to help your vacation experience be the best it can be. Enjoy the personal touch of having the owner living in the area and manage the property.
