Your Private Mountain Escape:
Welcome to Creekside Retreat, a peaceful and private mountain property surrounded by the beauty of Pike National Forest. Located just 10 miles north of Woodland Park and 30 miles from Colorado Springs, this charming home offers breathtaking views of Pikes Peak and a babbling creek that runs through the land — the perfect setting for a true Colorado getaway.
Step outside to breathe in the fresh alpine air, listen to the water flow, and watch the light change over the mountains. This is where relaxation begins.
A Touch of Colorado History:
Creekside Retreat sits in a small historic settlement dating back to the Colorado Gold Rush. You’ll even find old Prospector’s Cabins nearby — a reminder of the miners who once searched for gold in these same hills. If you’d like to try your luck, you can still pan for gold in the creek!
Because the creek runs through private property, guests are also welcome to fish without a license — a unique and peaceful experience you won’t find often in Colorado.
Comfortable and Inviting Home:
The home comfortably accommodates up to 6 guests, making it ideal for two couples or families looking to unwind in the mountains.
Upstairs:
- Master Bedroom – Spacious with a brand-new king-size bed.
- Second Bedroom – Two comfortable queen-size beds.
- Third Non-Conforming Bedroom – A cozy twin bed, perfect for a child.
- Living Area – Bright and relaxing space with a flat-screen TV and comfortable seating, located between the bedrooms.
Downstairs:
- Fully equipped kitchen for home-cooked meals
- Dining area with mountain views
- Full bathroom
- Spare refrigerator and additional sink in the garage for convenience
Every detail is designed to make you feel at home while surrounded by nature.
Nearby Attractions and Adventures:
You’ll find plenty to explore in every direction — from natural wonders to family-friendly attractions:
- Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument – fascinating petrified wood and prehistoric discoveries
- Colorado Wolf & Wildlife Center – meet and learn about rescued wolves.
- Santa’s Workshop Amusement Park – fun for kids and families near Pikes Peak
- Victor & Cripple Creek – historic mining towns filled with stories and old west charm
- Rocky Mountain Dinosaur Resource Center – a hit with kids and history lovers alike
Within 30 miles:
- Garden of the Gods – stunning red rock formations
- Cave of the Winds – underground adventure and spectacular views
- Seven Falls – scenic waterfalls and hiking trails
- Manitou Cliff Dwellings – ancient architecture and cultural history
- Outdoor enthusiasts will love the endless hiking trails, whitewater rafting, dirt biking, and rock climbing opportunities throughout the Pike National Forest.
Good to Know:
- A 4-wheel-drive vehicle is highly recommended, especially during winter or after rain, as parts of the access road can be uneven.
Please note: the map location shown on VRBO may not be exact — accurate directions will be provided after booking.
The property is completely private and peaceful, offering a true mountain experience away from crowds.

At Creekside Retreat, every day begins with mountain views and ends under a sky full of stars. With its mix of comfort, history, and natural beauty, this home is the perfect base for your next Colorado adventure.
