The decor is fantastic, the scenery is astounding, and everything is within close proximity. The home is wonderfully stocked. We will also be purchasing some Turkish bath towels when we return home.

When we arrived, there were complimentary snacks, detailed instructions, recommendations for places to visit, instructions on how to properly get things delivered, and the home looked incredible. Everything was clean, easy to access, user friendly, and very cozy. My partner and I were impressed. Also, the communication was stellar. The property owners were not only timely, but extremely flexible in every way. There were a few hiccups on our end, and the property owners were extremely helpful and friendly. I truly recommend this location to anyone wanting to stay in the greater Colorado Springs area!

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.
