Al and Nancy have been hosting short-term rental guests for about 15 years. They have also hosted guests at their Breckenridge home in the past. They have a huge family with 8 adult children, their spouses, 18 grandchildren, and one great-grandson, so they know what it means to create a home that works for real people gathering together.

Al is a former Air Force Academy boxing coach and Air Force retiree. Nancy is a longtime real estate investor and licensed real estate professional. They live very nearby, genuinely enjoy meeting visitors from all over the world, and are happy to help if anything comes up during your stay.

If the timing is right and you’d enjoy it, they’re always glad to say hello in person too.

This is the kind of Colorado Springs location guests come back for: quiet, safe, scenic, and close to everything that makes the west side special.

Set on a beautiful corner lot with views of Pikes Peak and Garden of the Gods, Retro Retreat is just a short walk from charming Old Colorado City, where guests love the coffee shops, restaurants, galleries, boutiques, and neighborhood feel. It is the kind of location that makes it easy to spend the day exploring, then come home and settle back into the house without feeling removed from the action.

The home itself is part of the experience. This custom ranch-style house carries the spirit of mid-century design, with brick exterior details, stacked stone, picture windows, and the simple, stylish character that makes the era so memorable. It feels like a trip back to a time of cool furniture, community gatherings, and real family living, while still giving guests the comfort and convenience they want today.

You are also just a short drive from Garden of the Gods, Red Rocks Canyon, Manitou Springs, The Broadmoor, Pikes Peak activities, and many of the best parks and attractions in Colorado Springs. The real advantage is the balance: mountain views, neighborhood calm, and easy access to everything.

Set on a beautiful corner lot in a very safe Old Colorado City neighborhood, this ranch-style mid-century home is full of the kind of character guests remember: brick, stacked stone, picture windows, original wood floors, warm gathering spaces, and hand-selected period-appropriate details that make the house feel personal and distinctive.

There is a true sense of memory in this house. Every room carries the fabulous 50s and 60s spirit, with retro-style decor and furnishings that make the home feel like a real time capsule rather than a themed rental. The solid oak flooring, spacious living and dining area, and large picture window with views toward Pikes Peak and Garden of the Gods give the home a warmth and presence that guests feel right away.

Morning starts best on the covered front porch or sunny west-facing front patio with coffee, cool air, and the mountains in view. Guests may spot native deer moving through the neighborhood, watch the light shift across the Front Range, then head out for Garden of the Gods, Red Rocks Canyon, Old Colorado City, Manitou Springs, The Broadmoor, or a full Colorado Springs adventure day.

Inside, the home balances retro character with an easy, practical layout for groups. The ranch-style design and main-level living make it especially appealing for families, multigenerational stays, and guests traveling with grandparents or kids.

Out back, the lovely covered patio is the home’s signature evening scene. Guests can soak in the private hot tub, grill dinner on the large grill, enjoy the outdoor fireplace when conditions allow, and even watch the patio TV from the hot tub. It is the kind of setup that makes people want to stay outside just a little longer and creates the kind of nights families and friends talk about long after the trip is over.
