A Relaxing Oasis

Property exactly like pictures. Cozy, comfortable and quiet. Loved the turkish towels in bathrooms. Kitchen fully stocked with ample pots and pans, dishes, utensils and more. Easy drive to Garden of the Gods, Old Colorado City and the Cog Railway to Pikes Peak. Royal Gorge about 1.5 hrs away. Host provided binders that listed atttractions and places to eat. Very helpful. Got to meet host, Marcia, in person. Very charming lady. Saw two mule deer walk by, enjoyed seeing the trail riders leave the riding stable across from the property. Special bonus was an assortment of snacks upon arrival. They were pretty much demolished by the time we left. We didn't want to leave and would return. Highly recommend to others.Cindi and Colleen (Missouri)

Family Reunion/Vacation

My husband and I came from IN and my brother & his friend from Florida to visit our Aunt and Cousin who moved to CO 50 yrs ago. This home was perfect for our stay! It is a lovely place, and our host provided such special perks. Everything we needed, including fans in the closets. I fell in love with the makeup remover clothes! Everything was great and when we visit the area again, I hope this home will be available so we can stay here again. Thank you for your hospitality!A place to stay and so convenient to everything we wanted to see.

Great spot steps from Garden of the Gods

A very comfortable, well appointed half of a duplex. Across the street from horse stables and a half mile from the entrance of Garden of the Gods. Very clean and well supplied, with free snacks and water bottles, and wine for a small donation. Plus, we asked for a high chair and they delivered it almost immediately at 7 or 8 pm.

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

Wonderful cottage, very clean and nice. Well located to Garden of the Gods. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The host does an excellent job with all the amenities, even wine for a nominal donation. Highly recommend. The only thing that was a little surprise was the smell of the horse stable when we arrived and periodically during our stay. Would recommend and would love to stay again!

Friend Reunion Weekend

This was an amazing property and location for our trip! We ziplined with nearby Adventures Out West and had a blast, hiked Garden of the Gods, window shopped, and dined at nearby restaurants. But honestly it was hard to leave to do anything because this was such a relaxing spot! The views are wonderful and outdoor space is private because the home is located on a private drive. Highly recommend for any group, unless you can’t do stairs. We can’t wait to come back!

Everything we needed was in the unit. The owners live very close and can respond quickly with any issues. The unit has also been well cared for. There is a horse stable near by, so if you do not like horses that might be an issue. The location is unbeatable for seeing all the things in and around Colorado Springs.
