Why this property?
As proud owners who designed and built the house, we are incredibly biased and to avoid embarrassing ourselves with overly grandiose comments we have pulled the following comments from our guest book.
"We get the symphony part of your name, each morning before the kids were up demanding what we were going to do each day we would set outside with our coffee and relish the peace of your mountain symphony, the gurgle of the little stream, distant waterfall, and wind in the pines"
"Our favorite experience was the hike up the falls. The trail begins up the street from the house. Pretty easy climb that switchbacks to the top of the falls and a beautiful meadow where we found wild strawberries and a magnificent view of the town. We met hikers with fishing poles who said that they were continuing on to the Pikes Peak reservoirs further up the trail"
"What a lovely village, it reminds me of the simple little villages in the Alps that I remember from my youth. Three quaint restaurants, a lake with steep mountains rising up each sides dotted with summer cabins. The least commercial place I have been to in in Colorado"
"Walked to the town center this morning for breakfast, took us about 30 minutes as my 5 year old son had to continually check the stream for fish. Across from the lake we had the best breakfast I can remember, really! Cinnamon Bread toast, how can you go wrong with that. It’s popular so get there early or late morning"
Can’t say enough about this house, better than the photos, location on the road to the falls was perfect, mostly hiker traffic and a view of the mountain that the falls come down from".
"Perfect location minutes from Manitou, Cave of the winds, North Pole amusement park, if you have kids the penny arcade in Manitou is a must visit that not everyone knows about"
