Amazingly Accessible with an Incredible Deck

This cabin is incredible. We stayed for 8 days and it met all our needs. Amazingly Accessible! The beds are already on lifts, all doors are 36 inches wide, there is a ramp to the front porch entry, and both showers are zero-entry. My son is in a wheelchair and needs help transferring for everything. We have stayed in a lot of VRBO rentals and are always nervous about whether the photos truly depict the rental. It met our needs perfectly. You also can't beat the dual-side fireplace. Sitting out on the deck in the evening was amazing. You can trust Debra, and you should definitely stay at this cabin.

Beautiful house in a beautiful setting

It was a fun place to stay. We had family over for dinner one gray evening and it all worked out great. The kitchen is well stocked with everything and easy to work in. The deck was a fun place to hang out. It is a very comfortable house. Thank you.

Perfect

Close enough to everything but not in the busy city. We stayed for a long weekend. The house was exactly what was described. We have stayed in numerous VRBO’s and it’s always the little things that impress me the most! Coffee and creamer provided, to go cups made our early checkout so nice. Laundry soap provided, great to come home with clean clothes. Shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. It was so sweet they even had a bookshelf with books offering you to take one home if you weren’t able to finish. My ONLY disappointment was the fireplace didn’t work but the family was out of town and unable to assist us with the issue. I will stay again on our visit next year to CS!

Best winter vacation spot!

This house was amazing! Six adults and we fit comfortably. We were able to cook a few large meals in the well stocked kitchen. Very clean and quiet. Got to see deer almost everyday. After it snowed someone came and cleared the driveway. We can’t wait to go back!

Adorable cottage in a beautiful and quiet location. Nicely updated with plenty of room for a family of four. Wide doorways and walkin showers(no lip) made the cabin extremely friendly for my 86 year old mother with a walker. A family of deer visited us daily. All in all it was the perfect location and accomodations for our needs.

Everything you could want!

This place was perfect for our vacation. Peaceful and relaxing, and close enough to anything you could want to do while in Colorado. Also, be sure to eat at the Mountain View Cafe. We at there nearly every day and there is not one thing on the menu that wasn’t amazing. The house itself had everything you need or could want. Toiletries, kitchen & cooking items, fireplaces, gas grill, and the list goes on. Deer and other wildlife would walk through or play in the backyard daily. We fell in love with the mountains and the property. If we come back to Colorado Springs, we would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful Stay in Colorado Springs

We had such a lovely stay in this home just outside the hustle and bustle of the city. The views of the mountains and the deer that walked through the backyard were a wonderful treat! The spacious bedrooms allowed for comfortable sleeping for our family of six. Owners were beyond accommodating during our stay! We would absolutely stay here again when in the area!

We really enjoyed this cabin - perfect layout with a master suite on either side and sliding doors from each suite that affords access to the deck. The deck has ample seating and quaint lighting during the evening. The cabin was extremely clean and the host provided hiking and eating tips that were great. Location was easily accessible.

Fabulous Cabin

This cabin was amazing. It was close to everything we wanted to do around Colorado Springs, but in the woods which allowed for that secluded vibe we wanted. There was wildlife galore to watch from the huge deck. This cabin is comfortable and has everything you need to either relax, or entertain a few friends/family. The host was easy to contact when we ran out of something and very accommodating. This cabin is a must stay if you're in Colorado Springs!

Amazing Homey Gem

This is hands down our favorite space thus far! We arrived late and all the homey little details make it feel like you're walking into a cozy abode. The location is beautiful, the area is easy access to COS, USAFA, hiking, exploring, shopping, without the noise and hubbub. The Hosts are outstanding and the description is accurate- the cozy cabin in the woods overdelivers on the experience, setting, comfort, and every aspect of the stay. We will be back a lot, and plan to bring friends to stay at the other cabins on site as well when our son graduates! Thank you for this amazing better than home - away from home!!
