Amazing place! We have been in Manitou several times over the years and this is by far the best Vrbo we have stayed at. Easy walk to the Incline but still just a short distance from food and shops.

The Winter St. house was in the perfect location for easy access to hiking. We were able to reach several trailheads with just a short walk from the house, which made it incredibly convenient. Jean was also a very responsive host, making communication smooth and easy throughout our stay.

House was very unique, clean and accommodating. Only issue was a strong sewer odor on second floor. I had seen this issue on several reviews but thought it would not be an issue. They really need to have it addressed. My take is it is a sewer line vent problem.

Response from VrboOwner on 2 Sept 2026
For future guests: This perceived smell has been addressed. Because the toilets are low-flow efficiency, it is important to make sure that the levers are held down for an entire flush. Additionally, a new top of the line LG washer/dryer combo has been installed.

We really enjoyed our stay! The location was perfect for us, especially since we were in Manitou Springs to hike the Manitou Incline. Being able to walk to the Incline without worrying about parking or taking the bus was a huge plus.The house was very clean and comfortable, as was the hot tub. We especially loved spending time on the front porch, listening to Ruxton Creek and watching the people and traffic go by.Having a full kitchen and laundry was also incredibly convenient. The house is older with an interesting history, yet beautifully updated.Jean was wonderful, and her communication was excellent! We felt very comfortable and wouldn't hesitate to stay at this house again if we return to Manitou Springs someday. Highly recommend, especially if you're planning to hike the Incline!

One of the small things that stood out from other rentals, was that this host provided plenty of "essentials" like hand soap, trash bags, dish detergent, etc. So many times hosts only provide sample size items. It's nice not to have to go to the store to buy enough of the little essentials to get you through the stay. We had two daughters with us, ages 15 and 12. They loved the house and especially the trails behind the home. Everything was clean and easily accessible in the house.
