This place was perfect for my family of four adults. The it is laid out perfectly with all the amenities we needed. Loved the proximity to Manitou Springs, a great town to explore for several hours, it was also very close to several of our sightseeing excursions, so convenient. The place itself was very clean and very organized with everything we could possibly need. The communication with the host was quick and simple, I would definitely come back here. Thanks for the great family memories!

Perfect stay for our family. The location was outstanding. The stairs to the basement room are a little tricky but you get used to them. The outdoor area isn’t pictured but was a highlight of the property. We even had a mule deer visit.

It’s been 21 yrs since we had been to Colorado Springs. This was a great trip to reminisce and show the kids the wonders of Colorado. The home we stayed in was as close to perfect as could be. We will definitely try to book this place again in the future.
