The Neighborhood:
Old Colorado City is one of Colorado Springs’ most desirable neighborhoods, for both locals and visitors alike. Established in 1859, its tree-shaded streets are lined with many of the city’s older homes with storied pasts. It also boasts a lively collection of unique restaurants, shops, galleries and museums. You’ll find similar offerings, but with a more contemporary vibe, in Downtown Colorado Springs, just 7 minutes away by car. In the opposite direction, just 3 minutes away, you’ll appreciate the charm of Manitou Springs, an artsy, walkable little town.

You’ll find so much to see and do within a 10-minute drive or less, you’ll have a hard time choosing. It’s worth noting that the famous Garden of the Gods Visitor & Nature Center, where awe-inspiring rock formations tower overhead at 300 feet, is just 2 minutes away. The Garden of the Gods allows dogs on-leash, and also provides a wide-open off-leash area.
