We were a group of 7 adults (multi-generational) and we all really had a good time at this house. The great room is very welcoming, the kitchen is clean and very well equipped, all the bedrooms were super comfortable, clean and welcoming....everything in the house had been carefully selected and was of good quality. The surprize feature was the wonderful upper patio which had plenty of lounging furniture and the most stupendous views! There are incredible, easy hikes around the house, and it's just minutes away from shopping. Would we return - yes we would! ##### Bhavesh D.

We were in town for our son’s graduation from the Air Force Academy. This house was perfect for our family to gather from across the country. Everyone had their own private room and the great room allowed us to cook, eat, and socialize together before and after all of the events. The views are amazing! We took advantage and had a photographer come and take portraits with the mountains as a beautiful back drop. The grandfathers especially loved sitting on the deck to relax after a tiring day at altitude. We had some issues with animals getting into the trash the first couple of days but the management staff was helpful in cleaning it up and replaced the cans with locking ones which prevented this from happening again. We would definitely stay there again and recommend it highly. ##### Patricia C.

This place has hiking steps outside and the most incredible views of the stars And mountains. We loved this place. Very easy to sleep the group of 10. Easy cooking in the huge kitchen. There is a bit of a windy road to get to the place and there are close by neighbors. The most incredible house on the side of a hill. Thanks for the amazing stay! ##### Sarah M.

The house was everything we wanted and more for our Florida group. The mountain views from the great room are spectacular! Everyone loved hiking right from the back of the house, the second story deck was a favorite for getting some sun during the day and stargazing at night. The great room allowed us all to be together while some cooked, some watched TV and others gathered at the table to play card games in the evenings. We stayed over Christmas and were delighted to find a beautifully decorated tree when we arrived. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of pillows and blankets to go around. This home was truly everything we wanted for our Christmas holiday. ##### Rebecca L.

Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Victor T. 1 Aug 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Mountain Home We rented this home for a family vacation (6 adults, 7 kids). The pictures on the site were so enticing we had to book it. Upon arrival, everything appeared just as it did on VRBO. The setup of the home was perfect for our combination of adults and kids. The views were spectacular, both porches were outstanding, and the house had plentiful supplies for cooking, bathing, sleep, and games. While the property appears remote, it is 10-15 minutes from downtown Colorado Springs, so we had a great combination of nature plus the convenience of a small city close by. There are many attractions close by that we were able to do such as the Cheyenne Zoo (get there early), 7 Falls Park (the gate is only a one mile hike from the house), Garden of the Gods, and a tour up Pike’s Peak (we used Manitou Springs Adventures, they were amazing) among other things. We were there in the summer and the house can get quite hot, but they had very good instructions how to use the skylight and window screens to keep cool, especially at night. Check in and check out were very easy. The owners and managers were helpful and quick to respond to questions. If you like nature, this is a fantastic spot. There is a trail right outside the back of the house. We saw lots of deer grazing outside the house, and a curious bear and raccoon both walked across the porch to see what was going on. I would highly recommend this property if you are visiting Colorado Springs. We could not have asked for a better time staying here and will definitely book again if we are visiting the area in the future. What a wonderful experience! ##### Victor T.

It was the perfect spot to unwind and reflect after busy days and our family enjoyed joining us for cake and champagne while watching the sunset over the mountains. I was thrilled to walk down the street to the Starsmore Nature Center to unwind with some hikes along the cheyenne canyon ! The only regret we have- is having to leave! ##### Anne I. Stayed 8 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kyle G. 14 Jan 2019 #### Totally Perfect My family and I stayed here over Christmas and it was everything we could have hoped for. The home is as beautiful as the pictures make it seem! Check in and check out were a breeze, and the owners/managers were always extremely fast, helpful, and accommodating any time we had a question -- we felt very well taken care of. Nothing bad to say here; this was a terrific trip! ##### Kyle G. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Trina S. 25 Dec 2018 #### Stunning Home with Equally Stunning Views Book this house! We were in Colorado Springs for a Memorial for my father-in-law. What a perfect place to share memories of a remarkable man. A stunning panoramic view of the mountains, feels very secluded but just minutes from the town center. The dedication to craftsmanship is everywhere you look. Also, love the sustainable aspects of the home as well. Pictures truly do not do justice to this home. The kitchen was well-stocked with all of the amenities needed. Coffee, creamer and a fabulous state-of-the-art expresso/cappuccino machine were the first things we noticed in the kitchen (there is also a regular coffee maker.) The kitchen is well-equipped with almost anything you might need. Plenty of spices and such for cooking. The bathrooms all had plenty of hotel quality supplies in case you forgot to pack your own. Kudos to enough hot water to keep up with this large crowd, no one ever complained of a cold shower. As another traveler noted, the 6th bedroom with the bunkbeds is accessed through one of the other bedrooms. Since we had a young family with 2 small children, this worked perfectly for us. If it had been 6 couples, might have been a little odd (but don't let that stop you from choosing this place, just nice to know ahead of time.) We definitely would have slept outside on the upper deck Murphy beds had it not been at the end of November. The radiant heat floors throughout the house are a nice touch on chilly nights. The Master Bath has a unique soaking tub with a direct line of sight to the beautiful mountain views. We would definitely stay here again! Trina and the gang :) ##### Trina S.

We came from several east coast states to enjoy a family wedding at the Pinery and celebrate a 70th birthday. Six of us stayed at the house but on Friday evening and then Sunday we were able to host extended family for outdoor exploring and a meal. Every one was in awe over how wonderful this home is. The house is sizable with a beautiful open gathering area of the kitchen, dining and living area which is expanded by the deck area. One evening we were enjoying the deck and realized that we had deer within a few feet of us off the deck. The deer are comfortable in the area of Canon and Cheyenne so keep your eyes open when you drive. The bird watching was great, there were numerous birds different from what we usually see. The bird feeders and hummingbird feeders attracted lots of activity. The views are spectacular! It was so hard to leave! We were able to access the upper deck though it is still under construction. We checked it out but it wasn't until we showed it to our guests Friday evening that we realized that the hummingbird paintings at the top of the stairs showed brilliantly with the night black light. That was just one of the many personal artistic touches in the house. From the decks you can see the Broadmoor and Pikes Peak. Just a short walk from the property you can visit a Nature Center and access hiking paths. The house can sleep well beyond the amount of people that we had but just for future knowledge, the parking is limited. It wasn't a problem for us but if you are thinking of having a group of people and different cars coming and going,you may need to rethink that. Elisha and Ryan responded to our communications promptly and made sure that we enjoyed their lovely home. FYI, the view is wonderful but if you have die-hard sports fans, they might be disappointed with the access. Our Penn State fan family members spent a long time trying to access their various streaming accounts and matching laptops and streaming but eventually just had to watch the game on a lap top. ##### Paul R.

The Canon Retreat had everything we needed for family meals and relaxation. The view from the wrap around deck was absolutely beautiful. Great location. ##### Shelly F.

As if this fabulous house was lacking in positive reviews - well, here’s another! Our family of 6 just had a fabulous Summer vacation in this wonderfully designed house. The views - you could just look at the mountains all day and never get tired of looking! We loved the great room and kitchen and the bedrooms were all a great fit for our family. As one family member put it, once you are here, why would you ever want to leave? ##### Karin S. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2018
