Square Footage: 1473

Guest Access:
You'll have access to the whole house. Our team sets out linens appropriate to the number of people on your reservation so please make sure your reservation accurately reflects the number in your party. Be aware that we charge a $30/night fee for additional guests after 4.

Check in is at 5pm and check out time is by 10am. We do our best to accommodate early check in and/or late check out requests. We offer these based upon our housekeeping team's approval as their schedule can be demanding and for an additional fee. Please note, the earliest check in time available is 2pm and the latest checkout time we can accommodate is noon.

You will have access to the entire fenced yard during your stay. Please note, we have routine lawn care & mowing every other Thursday during the Spring and Summer. Our crew will do their best to be quick and quiet as to not disrupt your stay in any way. You may see the homeowner working on the landscaping and grounds outside the property as well.

The Neighborhood:
Enjoy a 15 min walk or 3 minute drive to downtown Old Colorado City, 10 minute drive to downtown Colorado Springs and a 5 minute drive to downtown Manitou Springs. Less than 1 mile to beautiful Garden of the Gods and to the mountain biking trails at Red Rocks Canyon!

This home is located in the Westside of Colorado Springs (very close to Manitou Springs) which has a funky & quirky feel. Personally, we love the feeling of not being in a suburban neighborhood, however people have different responses to the setting. A large Apache Chief mural with headdress (added since our photo session) is viewable across the street at the boutique Apache Hotel facing the home. It is visible from the kitchen table.

Getting Around:
Colorado Avenue has several bus routes, and lots of people bike around but most of our guests bring their own vehicles.

Other Things to Note:
+ Sleep in peace on our super soft linens which were laundered in a professional facility to ensure the highest possible amount of viruses and bacteria are utterly destroyed.

+ We reserve the right to collect ID directly from our guests before allowing access to the property. This is in addition to identification you may be asked to provide to the booking platform.

+ STR-0286

Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private balcony. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.

Great getaway

Had a blast during our stay. Great location and easy access to everything we wanted to do during the 3-4 days we were there. Zoo, Garden of the Gods, Olympic Training Center and Royal Gorge. The bathroom was a bit tight and the plumbing drained slow, but overall, this place was great for our family of four. Thank you!

My husband and I stayed here for two days while visiting local attractions. The house was clean, well stocked, and wonderfully located. Had everything we needed. Communications with the owner were easy and they were very responsive to any questions we had. It was very close to Garden of the gods, Pikes Peak, and Manitou Springs downtown area. Would totally stay there again.

Property was exactly as pictured. Modern kitchen with the amenities needed for cooking. Lovely table with enough seating for six. We enjoyed using the outdoor grill and patio seating. Decor was pleasant. Check in process was super easy. We even added a few nights to our original booking. They made it very easy, just a simple text. Communication was fast so we didn't have to wait long for a response. Would definitely stay again!
