About this property

The GLEN - Luxury Retreat on 7 acres! 2 Cabins, Spa, Sauna in God's creation.

“I lift up my eyes to the mountains. Where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.” Psalm 121

WELCOME TO THE GLEN IN WOODLAND PARK, COLORADO
Some places are made to be an escape. The Glen was made to be your return. A return to stillness, mountain air, and the goodness of God’s creation.

Just minutes from downtown Woodland Park, The Glen sits in a private seven acre mountain valley framed by aspens, pines, and granite rock formations, with living spring water moving through the property. Guests describe it as the perfect mixture of seclusion and serenity, and a place where you can truly appreciate God’s creation. This is not a neighborhood cabin. This is your own private aspen valley.

FIVE STAR STANDARD, BUILT BY FAMILY
The Glen is family built, family owned, and family operated. We are hands on, detail focused, and intentional about delivering a stay that feels effortless and elevated. Guests regularly call the property immaculate with attention to every detail, and describe the experience like stepping into a custom built home. Many say it is the nicest vacation property they have ever stayed in, and that the hosting raised the bar and set a new standard.

THE RETREAT PACKAGE
You are booking two separate cabins together with the entire seven acre grounds as one private retreat.

OVERNIGHT OCCUPANCY
Maximum overnight guests: 7 total, with up to 6 adults.

STAY LENGTH
Two night minimum. Seven night maximum.
Seasonal exceptions may apply. Message the host anytime with questions before booking.

A RETREAT FOR EVERY SEASON
Spring and summer bring wildflowers, bright green valley views, birdsong, and crisp mornings. Evenings are made for slow dinners outside, firelight under the stars, open windows, and mountain sleep.

Autumn brings golden aspens, crisp air, and the kind of Colorado stillness you feel in your chest. Perfect days for hikes, scenic drives, and cool afternoons. Perfect nights for a hot spa, a steamy sauna, hot chocolate, and smores by the fire.

Winter turns the valley into a private snow covered wonderland. Soak in the hot tub as the snow falls. Step into the panoramic barrel sauna and watch the trees go still. Come back inside, warm up by the fireplace, and let everything slow down.

CHRISTMAS AT THE GLEN
A favorite season to visit from November 25 through January 25. The Glen is transformed with designer holiday decor inside both cabins and throughout the outdoor spaces. Thousands of outdoor white lights wrap the property and create a glow across the valley that guests call unforgettable. Guests have called Christmas at The Glen magical and an unforgettable memory.

THE CABINS

ASPEN HOUSE, 1,200 SQ FT
Aspen House is the heart of the retreat. Spacious, warm, and designed for comfort.

Includes one queen bedroom, bath with shower, wet bar with microwave, fridge, and ice maker, plus an electric fireplace.

Sleeping in Willow House
One queen bedroom and one twin sleeper pullout.

HOT TUB, SAUNA, FIRE PIT, AND OUTDOOR LIVING
This is where The Glen becomes a memory. Unwind year round in the four person Viking hot tub. Recharge in the panoramic barrel sauna with views into the valley. Gather around the fire pit under Colorado stars. Guests talk about listening to the wind in the trees while relaxing in the hot tub, and soaking under the stars while the snow fell as a highlight of their stay.

A STAY WITH HISTORY
The Aspen House bedrooms are located within the original homesteader cabin, one of the earliest buildings in this part of Teller County, built in the late 1800s and carefully rebuilt and preserved as part of The Glen experience. Real history, thoughtfully restored to modern comfort.

MODERN COMFORTS AND A SMOOTH GUEST EXPERIENCE
The Glen is peaceful, but it is not primitive. Everything is set up to feel effortless.
High speed Starlink WiFi. Streaming TVs in both cabins using Roku guest mode. Interactive QR code how to videos throughout the property. Complimentary coffee and thoughtful amenities. Board games, Colorado history and photo books, and a classic record player with complimentary records.

ALEXA
An Alexa Dot is located in the living room of both cabins for music and information. It can be turned off anytime by pressing the microphone off button.

SLEEP THE WAY A RETREAT SHOULD SLEEP
Queen beds are hypoallergenic and feature Zinus Green Tea memory foam mattresses with pillow toppers, feather down duvets, soft and firm pillows, and extra blankets. Twin beds feature Zinus Green Tea memory foam mattresses. Guests often mention how comfortable the beds are.

OUTDOORS AT THE GLEN
Multiple seating and gathering spaces across the property, including porch rockers, lounge swings, bistro tables, benches, and a seven person outdoor sofa on the lounge deck. Aspen House includes a gas grill and outdoor dining table.

Weather permitting, the private North Trail takes you around the hillside, through granite rock formations, with views toward Pikes Peak, and back through the valley.

WILDLIFE AND NATURE
This is a living valley. Regular sightings can include mule deer, foxes, rabbits, chipmunks, squirrels, hummingbirds, migrating birds, and black bears. With springs and wetlands, you will also see butterflies and dragonflies in warmer months. Guests often mention deer visiting the property, sometimes nightly.

WHY GUESTS COME BACK
Because it is private and peaceful, yet close to town. Because the two cabin setup is rare and perfect for families and friend groups. Because the spa and sauna feel like they belong here. Because the details are handled before you ever think to ask. Because a true retreat gives you your breath back.

To maintain extremely high standards for comfort and cleanliness, The Glen is a no pets, no smoking, no vaping, and no drug use property. Outdoor burning is not permitted. No large gatherings or parties without consulting the hosts in advance.

Awesome views, relaxing and peaceful area, great hiking and just an overall great experience. The cabin was so clean, updated, and inviting and the interior design was perfect and the exterior perks are amazing. Our kids (7, 9, 13, and 16) all loved it. The only complaint from anyone in our family was that we could not stay longer. From the personalized snacks and greeting board, to the follow up from Matt and his family, they made it a perfect escape for our family and was just what we needed. Highly recommend to everyone!

Perfect property

What a beautiful property! This was perfect for our family with both the Willow and Aspen houses a few steps from each other. The kids enjoyed the trail on the north side of the property and the hot tub and sauna were a great bonus! A short drive to great trails and an easy drive to Colorado Springs for day trips. I highly recommend this property if you like peaceful mountain vacations.

Perfect Mountain Getaway

Hands down the nicest rental property I’ve found through an app. The home itself is as beautiful as the landscape around it.Having two separate buildings for guests to stay in was very unique and makes for an interesting stay; perfect for families and friend groups.The amenities were wonderful. The sauna and hot tub worked perfectly. Instructions on how to operate both the outdoor amenities and appliances inside were clear and accessible at all times.The host was communicative and kind, always offering to assist us during our stay.This is genuinely a perfect mountain retreat for anyone, any time at all!

Where Memories are Made

The Glen provides an unparalleled get away experience. The location is fantastic—a peaceful retreat in the midst of nature with quick access to shops and restaurants. The interior is spacious and beautifully decorated—a warm and welcoming atmosphere for family to gather, play games and listen to music. The exterior is peaceful and serene—a luxurious three level deck with spa, sauna and fire pit. Be sure to walk the North Trail as the views of Pikes Peak are breathtaking. To borrow from John Muir, The Glen is a place to “lose your mind and find your soul.”

Weekend at The Glen Colorado

WOW! The Glen Colorado is an oasis of serenity in the Colorado mountains. The two houses are beautifully designed and outfitted and the attention to detail is like stepping into a custom-built home. We LOVED it! The amenities also beckon you to RELAX. The outdoor sauna with windows to the valley, the firepit at the top level of the deck and the hot tub just outside the houses were all great and so tastefully built into the hillside. If you are looking to be rejuvenated, we highly recommend The Glen Colorado!

Far exceeded our expectations!!

We spent Christmas in the mountains in the perfect place with our family. The 2 separate cabins was the best setup since we traveled with my in laws. They had their own place to go to and we had our own place with our kids. The spa and sauna were enjoyed by all. Matt (the owner) made sure our stay was above our expectations. He gave each of us our own stockings and the house was decorated so beautifully for Christmas. He also gave us great recommendations for places to eat in town. I wish I could give this place more than just 5 stars. We all talked about how we would love to come back in the summer to see the place and surrounding area another time. We will hold on to our memories forever of our Christmas in the mountains!!!

Just like the listing describes and more. From the moment you arrive, you are dropped into a slice of paradise tucked back in nature but surprisingly, so close to everything you could ever want to explore or do. The main house is beautiful and comfortable and is bright and light with nothing but God's creation to look at out of the many windows. The spa and hot tub were amazing to use, morning, noon or night as was the top deck and fire pit. I spent each morning having a coffee while sitting in the hot tub and enjoying all of the surrounding beauty in quiet repose of the awakening day. I spent each night in the sauna in the quiet dead of night. The host, Matt, is one of the most responsive and friendly hosts I've ever encountered and he was the most accommodating for sure. He was available via text or to drop by at any moment where needed. There is plenty of space for friends to hang or a family to relax and enjoy all that this area has to offer. The location is amazing as you are close to Pikes Peak, Garden of the Gods, hiking, restaurants and shopping, yet you are so far away from it all when you stay at The Glen. This was one of the most relaxing places I've stayed in all my travels and using short-term rentals. The only thing I regret is not being able to stay longer. I will definitely stay here again if ever in this area again.

10 year anniversary/vow renewal

Wow! Where to even start! Our family made the most memorable stay at the Glen. We chose Colorado to renew our vows after 10 years, along side our three kids and close family. We didn’t know for sure where we hold our tiny celebration until upon arrival- Right when you pull in, you see a beautiful large wooden cross on the hill- right then we just knew it would be at the Glen. The separate cabins, hot tub, sauna, hiking trails and views were impressive!! Having two separate cabins (each with their own living spaces) fit perfect for our family of five plus two extra family members. It was equipped with a gas grill, all the utensils, linens, washer and dryer. You’re only 10-15 minutes from town, which had plenty of stores and restaurants to chose from. You will feel right at home and won’t want to leave. Matt was always quick to respond, referred us to all the great locations to check out.

Home Away from Home

Wow! Where to even start... from the moment we booked the reservation to the time we pulled out of the driveway, the hospitality that was shown to us was remarkable. Let's start with the house. We were welcomed with a few of our favorite treats that the hosts had inquired about before our trip. Such attention to detail. The house itself was more perfect than the pictures can do justice. We spent most of our time looking up all of the decorations and things on Amazon because we all wanted to replicate it exactly! It was adorable and beautiful. The accommodations were so great for our girls weekend that we ended up cancelling dinner plans both nights so that we could all just relax and be with each other. Overall, I cannot wait to find time in the future to visit again!

An amazing immersion into God’s creation

The Glen is, without a doubt, the best VRBO property I’ve ever stayed at. It has the perfect mixture of seclusion and serenity. A place you can truly appreciate God’s creation in its entirety. The sounds of the leaves blowing in the wind, the wildlife all around, the views. . . It’s definitely something you have to see firsthand because the experience is indescribable. The Glen was perfect for my family of 5 but could even accommodate more if needed. My wife and I stayed in the cozy Willow House while my 3 daughters stayed in The Aspen House. Enjoying the hot tub under the stars and while the snow fell was the highlight of the stay for 2 of my daughters and going into the sauna after the hot tub was a great way to fully unwind. My other daughter loved seeing the deer that would graze through the property each morning. The quietness and immersion into nature is awe inspiring and spending time on the different decks gives you a great chance to truly draw closer to God. My family and I are truly blessed to be able to stay at The Glen and will DEFINITELY be back again!

Perfection!

“Glamping” to a whole new level. No detail was without care. Luxury in the mountains. Everything from the fun/adventure of the marked private trail, to the comfort of beds- all was amazing. There is nothing they didn’t think of. Immediately felt like the owners genuinely want to share their piece of heaven with their renters. The vibe is so peaceful, yet lighthearted and fun. Even a real record player and all. We had the most relaxing, fun, quick vacation. Cookware was on point, chairs were so comfortable, linens were high quality (took screen shots of brands so I can purchase for my house😆). The owners provided quick, friendly communication with any questions about the area we had. This property is going to sell out fast. We are very grateful we found it when we did. Our only compliant is we couldn’t stay longer!

Mountain Hideaway Retreat

The Glen Colorado was everything I was hoping for. Encircled in trees and mountains, it allows for ample privacy, yet it's located within 10 minutes of town to allow for activity, shopping, and dining. This was a birthday trip for my teen daughter and her friends, and they were thrilled to have Aspen and its amenities in which to celebrate! I cooked full meals in the kitchen, and was grateful the owners had thought of everything. The mountain landscaping, ponds, fountain (and soon to be waterfall) lent themselves to a gorgeous back drop. There is solid WiFi, streaming TVs, and music on site. The videos and pictures online, while inviting, don't do the experience justice. It exceeded our expectations. We saw deer, chipmunks, birds, and a gorgeous gray fox in the first few hours after arrival. The observation deck/fire pit area with Colorado's starry skies and the hot tub were the perfect way to end the night. I slept in Willow, and it was very comfortable! We will definitely be back and HIGHLY recommend! Can't wait to come back! .

Magical Experience in the Fall

We’ve been using VRBO for over a decade to find unique luxury properties all over the world. The Glen is by far the best little slice of heaven thus far. The hosts were extremely accommodating and kind. Everything was so clean and beautifully designed both inside and out with absolute attention to every little detail. We were just in complete awe the entire stay and felt incredibly spoiled on top of all of that with the spa area and fire pit. Aside from the property and cabins, our favorite part was watching the aspen trees in their full fall color palate, while glistening in the wind. We were also blessed to have the most adorable family of four mule deer’s visit us nightly at dusk for dinner as they grazed in the front yard. Overall, everything at The Glen was so spectacular that we didn’t even want to leave to drive into town a short couple of miles away. Or outside the city limits within the 30-90 mile radius between Woodland Park to Denver, Manitou Springs, Colorado Springs and Cripple Creek. Thank you for the best trip in our travels yet. We really needed to unplug and now we know where to each time.

Peaceful, relaxing and fun

The property is nestled among the trees and hills of the mountains. It provides peace and quiet and there's nothing like listening to the wind in the trees while relaxing in the hot tub. The deck wraps around the house allowing easy access to any part of the property and there's always somewhere to sit in the sun or the shade, whatever you feel like. The sauna provides the opportunity to detox, while the satellite Internet allows you to stay connected or you can disappear for a few days and pretend you are completely disconnected. The trail provides a nice short hike but reminds you of the beautiful surroundings and the wildflowers during the warmer months bring color and wildlife. I peeked out the front window one evening to have a deer looking cautiously back at me about 40 feet away and make his way off into the trees. It was a much needed getaway for our family to forget all the chaos of busy schedules and work for a few days The house is very well thought out with small details like hooks in the shower for hanging up wet bathing suits, all cooking utensils, beautiful wood and tile floors and separate temperature controls by rooms. The owners were available and so kind to offer any assistance needed. We never needed a thing, but it was great to know they were there to make sure we enjoyed ourselves and weren't in need of anything. Beds were all memory foam style mattresses and very comfortable. It's a great place to stay and we definitely plan to return.

About the host

Host profile image
Hello, we are the Cockroft Family! Owners, Operators, and Neighbors of The Glen!
We enjoy the Rocky Mountains and being in God's Creation! We Enjoy caring for The Glen as a family and as parents, we pray that one day we can pass it down to our Children!
We Love the Glen & we think you will love it too!

Why they chose this property

Aspen Hills is our neighborhood! We have lived here since 2007 when we built our home just up the road. The Aspen Valley that is now called The Glen, has always called to us through the years, and in 2021 we were blessed with the opportunity to purchase it and start the 3 year renovation transformation. Turning it into The Glen and share this Amazing little valley with the public to enjoy for years to come!

What makes this property unique

It begins with intention.

The Glen was not created as a rental. It was designed as a retreat, thoughtfully built with the guest experience at the center of every decision. From the cabin floorplans, materials, amenities, to the smallest detail, all was made around comfort, peace, and the kind of experience that helps you truly unplug and reset.

It starts with the land. A quiet seven acre mountain valley surrounded by mature aspens, pines, spruce, and willows, with granite rock formations, living water, and wildlife all around you. There is a calm here that is hard to explain until you feel it. Guests often say it feels grounding, peaceful, and almost like stepping into another world.

Then there are the cabins. Two of them. The Aspen House and the Willow House. Each one was carefully crafted with warmth and comfort in mind, right down to the details. Having two cabins gives you space to spread out, privacy when you want it, and togetherness when it matters. It works beautifully for families and small groups.

One of our favorite parts of The Glen is the spa, sauna, and lounge decks. If you have never experienced a barrel sauna, this alone is worth the stay. Soaking in the hot tub under the stars, or sitting in the sauna while watching the trees move and the seasons change, is something guests talk about long after they leave.

And then there is the trail. We have our own private trail system that winds through the property. The North Trail is open now and is a guest favorite, especially for a quiet morning walk or a peaceful evening stroll. The South Trail will open soon, adding even more to explore.

At the end of the day, The Glen is not about one feature. It is about how everything comes together. The land, the cabins, the quiet, the care.

The rest is something you really have to experience for yourself.
