We had a great time! The Mountain View’s were incredible. The house was in a great location and close to everything we wanted to do. It was the perfect arrangement for our vacation.
Very nice property. Clean. Well outfitted, turn key property. Would certainly stay again. Nice home amenities with ample room for the family and cadets to spread out and relax.
House was cozy, clean, and a beautiful view of the mountains. Perfect for a large group, nice neighborhood, restaurants and attractions close by. Home had everything we needed. Will definitely stay again when in Colorado Springs.
Beautiful house located in a great location close to everything:) This would be perfect for kids or larger families (we only had 3 people) because it has so much space! We loved the outdoor porch and two living spaces and large kitchen. Would definitely stay here again!!
Great location and beautiful home! Everything about the experience was easy and stress-free! Great communication from the property manager, and check in/check out was easy. Looking forward to staying again next year. Thanks for providing the perfect place to stay!
We greatly enjoyed our Colorado Springs family vacation! This house was in a great location and it was very convenient to access major highways and local stores nearby! It was close to everything….I can’t stres enough how convenient this location was for Colorado Springs! The house was perfect for us. It was very well stocked and they were super easy to work with. The check in and check out process was very smooth. We enjoyed everything!
We enjoyed staying at AF Academy Rancher over the Christmas break. Tony was exceptional at helping us when a member of our party had significant health problems and we needed to adjust who would be visiting the property. We notified him of a few things we found that were not in good working order and he was receptive to our communication. This property is close to shopping, restaurants, grocery stores and the Y! It also has a fabulous view of Pikes Peak! Enjoyed our stay!

So bad we left early
We arrived to a sewer gas smell in the kitchen,broken outdoor furniture, non-functioning dishwasher and garbage disposal, electric outlets. The bath towels smelled like mildew. The home has not been maintained and not as advertised. We left after one night.

Your review is a joke and a lie. There's no sewer gas smell in the kitchen. All you had to do ask us how to reset the Kitchen GFI which would have turned on the dishwasher and garbage disposal, Your nose again must be getting old as the towels don't have a smell to them. The house is very well maintained, and hopefully future Hosts see our review of you so they know what they are getting by hosting you at their home. Next time when you have a simple issue, please reach out to the property management company to ask them to fix them, instead of waiting until after you leave. Until then, we Highly Recommend you stay at the Broadmoor Hotel, until you can appreciate a VRBO Home. Have a Awesome Summer!
We had a great time in this house. The house was in a good neighborhood and was very clean. We had 11 people comfortably but had a few on air mattresses provided by the house. What looked loke bunl beds in the pictures were lofted beds so we had a few less beds that we expected. But luckily the younger guys were fine on the air mattresses. Would still rent again!
This house is very well equipped. It worked great for the part of the family that we had with us. The bedrooms are strategically located to give everyone privacy. It is located in a quiet cul de sac but it backs up to a major street which can be noisy. The house is well insulated so it is really not a problem unless you want to open windows in the back; but the air conditioner works great so there is a remedy. Would stay there again - plenty of comfortabled space (and very well equipped in the kitchen).

Unpleasant vacation
Pool table was crooked and in the worse spot. We couldn’t have access to a lot of spaces crucially needed. Outside house(front and back yard)was dirty. Found old receipts under our beds. Linen smelled of old mold. Was blamed for house falling apart and owner took our damage deposit for old damage not done by us. Refrigerator smelled gross and had to clean. Grill was never cleaned. Found old bed sheets in dryer and smelled of very old mold with an unpleasant smell. I wouldn’t consider this unit. Find something else.

You had no complaints until we called you about all the Damage Your family did to our home, that you admitted too in VRBO Messages and you even said you're "Mad at your Family" in the messages! Your lies and damage cost you a bit of money! This is why VRBO backed us a Preferred Partner and this home that has all 5 Star Views except for yours. We hope in the future that other VRBO Owners won't let you book their home!!
