This is a cozy and private location

We are former residents of Colorado Springs, so we knew this is a great neighborhood. We especially appreciated being able to travel with our dog. We spent a lot of time on the secluded patio.

Comfortable, convenient and charming. Love the gas fire pit. Would definately stay there again.

It rained every day but the overhang on the house provided great shelter. Was able to have a fire every night nonetheless. Comfy bed, great kitchen, totally charming.

Sweet little cottage

We stayed at the property during our honeymoon in Colorado Springs. We chose the location because it was close to most of the places we wanted to go. It was easy access and we loved the location! We enjoyed the patio for dining and used the firepit a couple of nights (it was 90 degrees most days or we would have used it more!).

Fun visit, a homey place to come back to at the end of the day

We had a great time staying for 3 nights at the cottage while visiting friends, Manitou Springs and the Olympic Museum, and riding bikes and the cog railway. The location was perfect and the neighborhood was safe and quiet. The cottage looks just like the photos and was very well equipped throughout the unit. I would suggest adding a few items in the kitchen (dish drainer for sink, wine glasses, a recycle bin, pencil sharpener for the pencils included with the note paper, an acrylic/plastic cutting board instead of wood for food safety, a pair of scissors), batteries for the clock in the living room and curtain pullback hardware for the north windows (similar to the ones on the east side bedroom windows). Another suggestion would be to consolidate some of the kitchen items in the cabinets so that guests have some cabinet room to store shelf stable food instead of leaving it all on the countertop. All in all a fun visit, a homey place to come back to at the end of the day. Carol the owner was always very prompt and cordial in all her communications with us. Thank you!

The cottage was clean, well-lighted, private and quiet. It had everything we needed for our 3-week stay. My dog loved the yard, and we both enjoyed walking the neighborhood. I felt secure there. The owner graciously accommodated my awkward check-in timing. I would enjoy staying here again.

Vacation in Colorado Springs!

The cottage was very cozy and clean. Carol provided a lot of personal touches to make it feel more like home. The location was in close proximity to the attractions in the area. We would stay again when we return to Colorado for vacation.

The property was wonderful. Clean, comfortable, safe, welcoming, well stocked with all the amenites.

This was our first trip to Colorado and the Rocky Mountain area. The stay at Ref and Carol's cottage was so welcoming to my husband and I as well as our doggies. We hope to come back again. I loved the location in Old Colorado City because after our daily adventures we had the ability to park the car at the cottage and just walk a quick 5 minutes to one of the many restaurants in the area. The gas fire place and fenced yard were added bonuses! Thanks so much!

Cozy cottage. Nice decor. It had everything we needed to come back to after all day excursions.

Nice, quiet neighborhood. Loved that it was close to the things we wanted to see such as Pikes Peak, Garden of the Gods, Seven Falls. The local dining scene was good. Pizzeria Rustica and Edelweiss were two of our favorites.

Colorado Softball Sparkler Vacation

We loved the location of the cottage. So close to the downtown shops and restaurants. Loved Dat’s Italian and their lasagna. We had a deer walk by the cottage early one morning while we had coffee. The cottage is cutely decorated and perfect for two people. So glad it had a portable air conditioner since we were there during a heat wave. We had a great time!
