Fun spot in a great location

This place is a great place to stay when visiting the Garden of the Gods. Nice neighborhood to walk a dog around as well. It is a little tricky to find at night, so try to get there before sunset.

Little Getaway

It was a quiet area a short drive to a lot of nice places to visit. Clean and comfortable with the exception of limited air conditioning. We would have rated it a 5-Star if the air conditioning had been better.

Met our needs

Good for what we needed. We had a few issues at first but the owner was quick to work on the fixes. This was our second stay here mainly because of the ability to bring our dog. We did bring extra fans because in the summer it gets uncomfortable inside without central air conditioning.

Great location

This was a very central location in a fairly quiet neighborhood. The neighbors have chickens and couple roosters. The first morning the roosters woke up around 8, the next day though, I didn't hear them, so not a nuisance in any way. Perfect for our quick weekend stay!

A good place to stay!

Close to everything we wanted to do. Close to hiking trails and prime 25 (if you stay here go eat there. It’s AMAZING) there were issues with the remotes but easily figured out. Like that this place was dog friendly but seemed like it doesn’t get thouroughly cleaned after each visitor. Since we have dogs we felt right at home though lol. Over all a great stay and a great place.

Quaint and close to family

This quaint little place is blocks from my sons house, which makes it very convenient for us. We had some challenges because it had been downpouring all day and night during our first day and I really stressed over containing mud. We ended up bringing two entry rugs in. Overall very quiet and quaint.

First time VRBO guest

Our getaway to visit with family and friends included our first time experience in an VRBO property. We were not disappointed, the accommodations were just as described and met our needs perfectly. We were able to travel with our small pet and he was comfortable too! Communication with our host was free-flowing, accurate and pertinent. The DACK app for check-in and amenities was very helpful. Through that app I located a nearby massage therapist…… Another great experience! The price point for this property was spot on. It was a great location with close access to freeway travel, shopping, and tour spots. Thank you Lloyd and staff for hosting us and making it all possible.

It’s decent

The space is very cute! It had everything we needed for our 4 night stay with our two fur babies. The kitchen is well stocked and there were plenty of paper products, towels and soap for our entire stay. The downfall was the cleanliness of the floors. We could tell as soon as we walked in they hadn’t been swept or mopped. There were cleaning products available so I did that part on my own. There are also a ton of cobwebs and spiderwebs all around the entrances. This place is very adorable and we would recommend staying there. I’m sure the owner would have taken care of the cleaning had we asked, but it was easier just to handle it on our own.

Great stay!

I really had no complaints about the property or home. There are some folks that note it is kind of hard to get to, but if you realize it's a duplex and the driveway to the back half of the property goes through a little alley way, then it makes more sense. There are postings and arrows to guide you in, so that really helps. The home is a duplex and has a shared wall. We didn't really hear any noise from the renters in the front. We heard their dogs bay (not bark) from time to time, but it wasn't an issue at all. I would say though of note that there is a fence on both sides of the house that separate the yards and each fence has a gate that is accessible from both sides. The kitchen was a bit small, but it more than made up for it in cookware and spices. Blender, crockpot were also available. You won't need for anything in this kitchen to cook with at all. It was extremely well stocked. The house was super tidy as were the yard spaces. Outdoor seating in a few locations was nice too. We did not use the grill, but it might be worth mentioning that it is propane, so you won't need charcoal. A big bonus was being able to see the hot air balloons during the Labor Day balloon festival taking place sailing by the window. The neighborhood had some great restaurants in a close distance. The living spaces are well lit with lots of natural light and just very comfortable. The bedroom was super roomy as well and had a desk space as well. Thanks for the stay!

Started rocky and got worse.

The mixup with checkin. Then walked in to a cat pee smell that never went away (let the host know and they did say they would get a cleaning company to come out mid way through the stay). Cleaning was needed. Circuits popped and the electrical box was definitely not up to code. I asked the family what they would give it for a rating and no one gave it above a 4 out of 10. Lots of potential but nowhere near the previous Vrbo stays.

The first 24 hours there were many problems.

There were many issues that could have been avoided had someone informed us. 1. The house is in a good location geographically, but getting to the actual house was strange and difficult and we didn’t feel safe (probably because of all the tiny turnoffs to get into the driveway.) 2. When we used a hairdryer in the bathroom it would trip the breaker and shut off power to that part of house. You need to know the breaker box is behind the bed in the little closet thing. 3. The power outlets in the kitchen don’t work!!!! Except for the one beside the refrigerator. We waisted a hole crock pot meal on the 1st day (because it didn’t cook) which was very inconvenient since we got home late from a long day out. 4. Check the kitchen table chairs before you sit in them. My mother almost fell because the legs were so loose on one. 5. The living room table top slides right off the bottom if you bump it or push it. So be careful what you put on the table. 6. It’s really hot there during the summer. We had to go buy another fan and an air mattress so we could all sleep closer to the window unit which is only in the bedroom. 7. There was no lock on outside trash can so we had to pick up trash in the mornings that was drug out by animals in the night. I will say we adjusted to the house after the first terrible 24 hours, and these things could have all been avoided if things had been communicated beforehand. Many of these issues can be easily corrected as well. I want to give some positives too. Check in was easy, the house does cool off during the summer starting around midnight, The house was stocked well with sheets, and towels. The washer and dryer are small but work great. The refrigerator and kitchen appliances were clean. The house looked clean. The decor is decent and we enjoyed the smart tv in the living room so we could watch Netflix. The house was in a very quiet, inactive neighborhood, and it was so close to so many great locations. I would recommend a stay in this house I think, but just be aware of the problems others have experienced so that you are prepared.

The Best Hidden Haven in COS!

My daughter and I really enjoyed our three-week stay at the Blue Haven. The place was spectacular, and the listing pictures do this cozy place no justice! The property manager(s) were so caring and accomodating when our power went out during a wind storm, and the owners were just as kind and truly cared for our wellbeing. We were able to witness a true miracle during the windstorm while at the property as well. We were able to enjoy so much that COS has to offer here. Owners did check in on us during our stay a few times and communication with everyone was 5-star worthy. Thank you for an amazing rental experience in COS!

Colorado Springs moving stay

The property was fine for our needs except that there is no dishwasher. We however experienced two issues. There was no cable TV as listed. We had wifi access and we had to stream shows, using our personal streaming accounts. The washer leaked the first time we try using it. The owner try to fix it but couldn’t. It took to have it repaired but this didn’t work either. He finally installed a new washer, but his was day eight of our ten day stay. Because of these issues, there was a clear lack of privacy as the owner came in at least four time and a tech from infinity also came once. The owner was trying to correct the issues but wasn’t very successful. He gave us a $20 gift card but I believe we should be entitled to a bigger compensation.

Great Location

Loved our stay here; great location and very clean. Came with everything we needed for a short stay. Only experienced two issues - could not open the door when we arrived and could not get in contact with someone for several hours - better instructions for entering might be helpful and better information on who to contact with immediate issues would be helpful. No one ever answered our phone calls despite the message saying they would return a call w/in an hour. However, as soon as we 'gave up' and emailed, we received an immediate response. We had a small issue with the tubing on the A/C - it came loose which was putting hot air in the room. We (with mgmt approval) purchased duct tape and fixed the issue so we wouldn't have to wait for a repair. Overall our stay was great and despite the two issues we would stay here again.
