You will have the entire top floor to yourself. Please note the backyard and laundry amenities are shared with the neighboring unit.

On-site parking is available for your convenience. You'll be a short walk away from local restaurants, coffee shops, and the vibrant downtown district.

Sunlight filters through tall Victorian windows as you settle into a peaceful retreat just steps from downtown Colorado Springs. Set in the upper floor of a historic 1888 duplex, this home blends vintage charm with modern comfort, offering a relaxing space for both quiet evenings in and adventurous days out on the trails. Whether you’re here to hike, explore waterfalls, or discover the city’s art and dining, this is a space where you can recharge in comfort.

Living Space
The heart of the home is a bright and welcoming living room, where natural light fills the space and vintage details highlight its historic character. A comfortable sofa invites you to unwind after a day of exploring, while the 55-inch Smart TV with Wi-Fi, Netflix, and YouTube makes evenings cozy and connected. Just beyond, the updated kitchenette is thoughtfully designed with stainless steel appliances, farmhouse-style cabinetry, and everything you need to prepare meals. Start your mornings at the eat-in nook with a fresh cup of coffee before heading out to nearby parks and trails.

Sleeping Arrangements
Two serene bedrooms provide restful retreats, each with a queen-size memory foam mattress, premium linens, and plenty of natural light. Room-darkening shades and extra blankets ensure restful sleep at any time of day. Whether you’re traveling with friends, family, or as a couple, the layout offers comfort and privacy for all.

Bathroom
The bathroom carries the home’s Victorian character with its clawfoot tub and shower combination, complemented by a freestanding vanity and decorative mirror. After a hike through Garden of the Gods or a day in nearby Manitou Springs, soak in a hot bath to ease tired muscles. Towels, shampoo, conditioner, and soap are provided for your convenience.

Outdoor Living
Step outside to a shared, fenced yard where you can relax under the open sky or let your dog enjoy some fresh air. The space is pet-friendly with a small fee, though guests are encouraged not to leave pets unattended. A laundry area, accessible through a separate entrance, makes it easy to keep clothes fresh during longer stays or post-adventure cleanups.

Perfect for...
This home is an excellent fit for couples, small families, remote workers, and outdoor enthusiasts who want to stay close to both city life and natural beauty. Downtown Colorado Springs is just minutes away, offering dining, cafes, and historic Old Colorado City. For those seeking adventure, Red Rock Canyon, Garden of the Gods, and a range of hiking trails and waterfalls are a short drive.

Neighborhood Highlights
Colorado Springs offers a unique blend of small-town feel with big-city amenities. Within minutes, you’ll find coffee shops, restaurants, bike trails, art galleries, and museums. Popular attractions like the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum, Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, and Cave of the Winds are all within easy reach, making this location ideal for both leisure and exploration.

Cute and very clean

This location was super clean and very cute. Location worked well for us. The Air Conditioning isn't spectacular (a window unit in the living room) but after the first afternoon the weather improved so we did not need it as much.

Convenient walking distance to shops and restaurants.

Good location, easy walk to restaurants and shops.Also easy drive to route 25. Nice to have McDonald’s across street for quick coffee and breakfast sandwich before heading out in the morning. Very clean. Beds comfy. Bathroom a bit tight but functional! I do wish there was seperate climate control from the main floor apartment. Also would have liked to have had wash cloths provided. Overall would stay again

House is centrally located in Downtown Colorado Springs

This place was nice for up to 4 to 5 people . Everything was within a hour of the property so it made it very convenient. We visited Royal Gorge, Garden of the Gods , Pikes Peak, and we went River Rafting in Canon City . I would totally stay here again . It also is close to many restaurants within 3 miles and some walking distance . I truly loved this place and hope others enjoy it as well . Thank VRBO for making our vacation a great experience.
