We had 6 adults and 2 kids, age 2 and 4. We loved being close to downtown Manitou, and we loved having spaces where people could congregate - parlor, dining room and family room. Mostly we loved the patio area with the lovely water feature, and we enjoyed several visits from deer during our week-long stay. The weather was pleasant, and there were plenty of fans, so it wasn't a problem not having air conditioning. The only disappointment was the playground area in back. One of the reasons I booked this place was because of the backyard playground for the kids. But some of the equipment was broken and unusable (seesaw), and the other equipment was pretty weathered and surrounded by tall weeds. There were also some broken chairs, etc. in the very back area. So we took the kids to the park instead.
