It was a great location to many outdoor activities, everything was clean and the kitchen was stocked with all the essentials you would need. We enjoyed the property and would stay here again!
Everything about our stay was amazing. The property is a cozy place and very welcoming. Hosts are very generous with amenities and provided everything needed
Location was excellent, walking distance from Garden of the Gods. Quaint little home, perfect for my two teens, husband and I. Enjoyed the well kept and organized manner of the home. The owners also left personalized letter with snacks for our arrival, very kind. They have a wine fridge which is fully stocked and they ask you leave 10 if you take a bottle, excellent for those wine enthusiasts. Hands down recommend this place to anyone looking for place outskirts of Colorado Springs close or Garden of Gods and Manitous Springs.
My wife and I stayed here for our anniversary and it was amazing! If you like hiking and the outdoors this place is a no brainier! Walking distance to Garden of the Gods and a short drive to everywhere else. Would stay here again!
Characterful property, felt right at home there. Well equipped kitchen and quality furnishings.Peaceful spot with easy access to Garden of the Gods, Pike's Peak, OCC and Manitou Springs. Lovely attentive hosts were very helpful and supportive after we had a bad car accident.
Loved the place. Great location, nice property with everything we needed. Easy to get to Garden of the Gods, Colorado Springs, Manitou Springs, you name it. Quiet neighborhood too. Had one small issue and the owners squared away within an hour. 10/10 would stay again!
This lovely property is located in a quiet neighborhood, yet is close to everything Manitou Springs has to offer. Staying here made an already pleasant trip so much more relaxed and enjoyable.
Perfect location to everything we wanted to do. The attention to detail made us enjoy our stay. Love the personal touches. Amazing food near location. Wish every vrbo was exactly like this one!
This place was perfect for our visit. Such a happy surprise to see all the Christmas decor and lights at the property. Location was excellent, as well. Close to everything important! Will definitely stay here on our next visit to the Springs. Thank you!
Everything was clean, wonderful, and as described in the listing. The mountain views and easy distance to all the natural attractions, especially Garden of the Gods, was our favorite part.
Great location. Clean place. All the amenities you’d ever need. Kids loved visiting the horses across the street and we loved seeing all the mule deer.
We wanted a nice, clean, relaxing place for our vacation that still offered plenty of things to do. This place was perfect! Beautiful, exceptionally clean, and centrally located to all we wanted to do. Watched horses, does, and numerous bucks every night. Wish we could give this place and owner more than 5 stars!!!
numerous bucks every night.
This Vrbo is nestled right in the mountain with amazing views and wildlife. It is also right across from a horse ranch, which I highly recommend visiting, so even on the mornings we’re deer are scarce you can see the horses
