Great location- walked to Old Colorado City often. The fenced garden was perfect for our big family gathering. Clean, all household amenities available
This is the second time we have stayed here. We like the convenience to area attractions, the privacy in the fenced in yard. Enjoyed sitting on the front porch. The host is great, quick to respond to any questions.
This property was very nice and well maintained and stocked! The patio area was perfect! It was close to everywhere we wanted to go. The neighborhood was safe and clean. The host was very responsive even though she was out of the country. I would definitely recommend and stay there again!
The house was in a great location close to everything, very clean, well stocked, and very quiet neighborhood. The host communication was amazing and timely. Highly recommended and will be using for future travel.
overall the house is great. The 5 bedrooms worked well with our group. The outside seating is great for meals. The carpet downstairs needs to be replaced and the front porch should be cleaned between guest stays. The porch light and surrounding area had lots of cobwebs/bugs
The house was clean and well-stocked. Awesome back yard with patio furniture and a fire table. Great location within a short walk to the main strip of Old Colorado City, and a short drive to Manitou Springs, downtown Colorado Springs, Garden of the Gods, and other local areas of interest. Highly recommend!!
This home is perfect for a family vacation. We had six adults and 3 kids and were all very comfortable. Very well stocked kitchens, lots games that were fun, nice backyard and perfect location. Couldn’t have asked for a better stay!
This house fit our family perfectly! Was with in15 minutes of everything we wanted to do and within walking distance of Old Colorado City town center. Will be looking to stay here again on our next trip to The Springs.
We were pleased with this house - 5 bedrooms was perfect and the backyard was ideal. The location is handy enough and the renter was pleasant enough. definitely a good stay.

Glad you enjoyed your stay! The toys do come in handy for entertaining kids of all ages.
Don’t hesitate book this house! Checking in was extremely easy and the house is in an excellent location. We loved how the easy it was to walk to downtown Old Colorado City. There were 9 adults in our party and the house was more than enough to accommodate us! We loved the outside area especially the two picnic tables put together that we all could sit at. Watching the sunset over the mountains on the front porch was beautiful! Catherine was quick to respond and did everything she could to ensure we had a great stay. She definitely went above and beyond for a slight hiccup that was out of her control. We hope to be back!!!!
Great setup for large group. Great location for some walking activities. Shopping close, easy to get to and close to all activities. Host responsive and helpful. Outside patio perfect.
This was a wonderful property and the perfect location! An easy walk to shopping and restaurants. Tons of local attractions within a 10 min drive. Property manager was VERY prompt to reply on all of questions. Fantastic property for groups. we easily slept 11. I would highly suggest!
I went on a trip to Colorado Springs with 5 friends for a weekend getaway. The house was perfect for us as 4 of us each had our own room and 2 shared a king bed. We loved the big table in the dining room we could all fit at and the outdoor patio where we could have wine and sit by the fire. The house was stocked full of everything you could need while staying there.

Good location
The owner was wonderful to work with and very responsive. Property is a little older than the pictures in listing show but location for us was perfect. Colorado Avenue is in walking distance and has some fun shops and farmers market on Saturday morning. Very close to Garden of the Gods and Red Rock Canyon. We had a great time.

So glad you had a great stay! We agree - the property is in the ideal location for visiting all of the local attractions as well as walking to the shops, parks, restaurants in Old Colorado City. I've updated the pictures - we did do lots of updating lately, so now images are recent to how it looks. Thanks for the reminder!
Property was very clean, easy to get to and easy access. Location is very good as well. Most things were 30 minutes or less to get to. If you have a large group, it would be a great accommodation. 5 bedrooms and a decent sized outdoor area. It is fenced so great for a dog to roam as well. We would definitely recommend!

About the host
Hosted by Catherine
Originally from Ann Arbor, Michigan, I have lived in many states and even a few years in Germany. I spent a few years of my childhood in Colorado Springs, and many family members have now made this area their home. My husband, from Munich, Germany, and I and our three kids and dogs love to travel as often as possible. I enjoy spending time in Colorado Springs, visiting with family, enjoying the milder climate (we live in Texas!), and taking in the laid-back culture in this area.
Why they chose this property
This house is the perfect setup for larger families to enjoy time together while offering personal space needed when traveling. The outside space offers ample seating and a porch swing to enjoy the fresh mountain air. We enjoy some of the original features but also appreciate the many upgrades done to the house. And the location... it's just perfect for vacation!
What makes this property unique
