Nestled between the historic charm of Manitou Springs and the vibrant Old Colorado City, this freshly remodeled 2-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the ideal gateway to Colorado’s most iconic attractions.
Step out the door and find yourself within walking distance of Garden of the Gods and Red Rock Canyon Open Space, two of Colorado Springs’ most popular destinations.

The Pikes Peak region provides endless opportunities for horseback riding, hiking, and outdoor exploration. Unwind in this charming, light-filled, vacation rental, which boasts all the comforts of home and more.

Inside, the fully equipped kitchen is ready for your culinary creations. Stainless steel appliances, sleek cabinets stocked with dishware, and a chic center island make meal prep a breeze. Enjoy a home-cooked breakfast or family dinner at the sunlit dining area.
After a day of adventure, retreat to the cozy living room. The traditional fireplace adds a warm, rustic charm, while the large flat-screen TV has cable and streaming capabilities. Gather for a family movie night, or break into our board game collection!
At night, rest easy in one of the two well-appointed bedrooms. The master suite features a king bed with a private bathroom, dressing area, and dual sink vanity. The secluded downstairs bedroom features a queen bed and ample closet space and easy access to the updated bathroom. The loft provides additional accommodations, including a sleeper futon and access to the upper deck. Additional sleeping arrangements include an air mattress and Pack 'N Play for your convenience.
Whether you're here to hike Garden of the Gods, conquer the Manitou Incline, explore the charm of Old Colorado City, or simply relax and enjoy the natural beauty of the Red Rocks, this home offers the perfect base for your Colorado Springs getaway. Book your stay today and make unforgettable memories!

Marcia and Brian create the best experience from the moment you walk in the door. They have curated every detail with intention with the priority being fulfilling the guest's needs. The decor is fantastic, the scenery is astounding, and everything is within close proximity. The home is wonderfully stocked. We will also be purchasing some Turkish bath towels when we return home. Highly recommend and would return again!

Location was excellent, walking distance from Garden of the Gods. Quaint little home, perfect for my two teens, husband and I. Enjoyed the well kept and organized manner of the home. The owners also left personalized letter with snacks for our arrival, very kind. They have a wine fridge which is fully stocked and they ask you leave 10 if you take a bottle, excellent for those wine enthusiasts. Hands down recommend this place to anyone looking for place outskirts of Colorado Springs close or Garden of Gods and Manitous Springs.

About the host

Hosted by Marcia or Brian

Host profile image
We are from the midwest but have lived in Colorado long enough to consider ourselves semi-natives. We love Colorado's climate boasting an average of 247 days of sunshine a year, the mountains, hiking, skiing and the great outdoors with all Colorado has to offer!

Why they chose this property

This property is located in a quiet rustic area with a country feel, privacy and a relaxed setting.

What makes this property unique

You can watch the horses go by from the yard. A short walk to Garden of the Gods Park! Close to many attractions including Manitou Springs and Pikes Peak. It's not unusual to see wildlife.
