About this property

Rock Rest Eco-Cabin on 2 acre forested lot. Mins from Wolf & Wildlife Sanctuary.

Rock Rest Eco-Cabin was built by the owners in 2018. It is thoughtfully designed with modern lines and rustic textures. Lots of special features. The bedroom has a queen bed and a suspended bunk bed. The back balcony overlooks the valley with farmland beneath the Pikes Peak mountain range. The bathroom is a perfectly clean and efficient space. The shower has a unique stainless steel surround with a polished river rock mosaic floor. With our new water well and tankless water heater you can always have a long hot shower. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to make a nice meal. The appliances are stainless steel and the counters are custom made with inlaid polished stone and fossils. The living room has a custom built twin XL daybed. A Smart TV with Netflix, Bluetooth sound bar, HD DVD player, industrial and rustic furniture. The HUGE Sliding glass door addresses the large deck with a twin XL swing and the beautiful forest and meadow where the deer frequently graze.
We are located less than a mile from the Wolf and Wildlife sanctuary. You can often hear them howling at the moon. Sometimes they will respond if you howl at them.

Quaint, Rustic and Quiet
We had a change in plans and had to take the kids. If you are staying longer with a family, this might not be ideal for families unless the goal is to break away from technology. The place is very quaint, rustic, quiet and overall nice. It is more of a romantic spot than a family spot in my opinion.

Peaceful stay
My experience was quiet and peaceful. The snow fell and I could hear the wolves howling from the sanctuary down the road. Very cool.

Maybe better for a solo trip or couple ...
With all the outstanding reviews our family was excited to venture down from Rocky Mountain National Park area to Colorado springs for the last few days of our vacation but found this house to not be the best fit or experience for our family. We found the house to be tidy ( things were in their place)but did not seem to actually have been cleaned - hair and residue in shower, toilet not cleaned, hair on sheets, and in need of a thorough vacuuming, and the fridge and freezer were full of items many of which were long expired. The pictures and description of the home lead you to believe you'll be a bit more secluded than reality, just off the main road we heard car noise and saw headlights consistently throughout the early evening and early morning. While the bunkbed over the queen in the bedroom is so cool it was not a practical choice to sleep for our younger kids as it has no guard, rail, etc and is a steep ladder climb in someone needs the bathroom during the night. An air-mattress was provided but the linens were not clean and there is not much room to set it up. No one in the family slept well at all and we decided to leave after our first night unfortunately.

Clean and Rest
We spent a week camping and needed a place to rest up and shower before the 13 hour drive home. We got just that!! Thank you!
