The Neighborhood:
Our home is so close to many restaurants, coffee shops, and iconic Colorado Springs tourist destinations. It is just one block to the Olympic Training Center, a couple blocks to Memorial Hospital, a mile to downtown Colorado Springs, a few miles from Garden of the Gods, and a quick drive to all the great tourist destinations and sights that the Springs has to offer.
Getting Around:
Great places to eat and places to visit are right around the corner. We frequently walk to get coffee (Dutch Bros Coffee, Starbucks, and Switchback Coffee Roasters), China Village and Quijotes for some walkable food, and even walk to Walgreens for those last minute things you need. Just down the road, you have to check out our favorite Mexican food (Dos Santos Tacos and T-Byrd’s), great burger joints (Bingo Burger and The Skirted Heifer), and several amazing breweries (Phantom Canyon, Cerberus, Oskar Blues, and Bristol Brewing). For breakfast, you cannot go wrong with Denver Biscuit Co or the 100%-gluten-free menu at Coquettes Bistro and Bakery.
We recommend renting a car or using Uber and Lyft (ride sharing) to get around. There are also a couple close bus stops if public transportation is preferred.
Other Things to Note:
For a seamless check-in experience, you'll receive a unique code via message along with your check-in instructions on the morning of your arrival. You'll use this code for keyless entry.
We've also prepared a starter supply that includes paper towels, coffee K-cups, toilet paper, shampoo, body wash, and plush white towels! We hope these amenities add an extra touch of comfort to your stay.
We live on the corner of a high traffic street, but have plenty of free street parking on our side street and some parking in back off of the alley too!
Air Conditioning: In the summer, each bedroom has an over-sized window AC unit so you're in control of the temperature. The living room has a free standing AC unit too.
We have a full kitchen, but we do not have a dishwasher.
***We frequently drain and refill our hot tub so that it is clean and sanitary for all of our guests! Our water comes from the Rocky Mountains at crazy cold temperatures in the winter - sometimes as low as 48°. Our hot tub heats at about 6° per hour which puts the hot tub heated to 102° later in the evening when it has been drained and refilled earlier in the day. You may see the temperature in the 60s or 70s when you arrive but rest assured it is heating as fast as possible and will be ready for enjoyment later in the evening.
Interaction with Guests:
We are just a quick message away for anything you may need. You will always be able to reach our team with any issues and we are quick to respond through our messaging! You will have access to the private main level and everything in it! Kitchen, Bedrooms, Bathroom, and Living Room. The parking and backyard is also shared with our other guests. Feel free to use the BBQ in the backyard and enjoy the fire pit!
