About this property

Waltons Mountain Lodge with large HOT TUB

Nestled on over 100 acres in the foothills of Pikes Peak, our lodge with hot tub is great for memorable small family reunions and relaxing vacations.

Fully furnished 3 story 7 bedroom (6 Queen beds, 1 King bed) / 3.5 bath lodge + 2 bunk room(s) with two bunk beds in each bunk room. Large hot tub with mountain view.

***Important Booking information***
Please notify us during booking if you do not need access to the bunk rooms which sleep 8 and we may provide you with a discount per night depending on the season. Bunk rooms will not be accessible to you during your stay. If bunk rooms are not used, max guests in the house is 14. Only 14 towels will be provided, etc. Please feel free to ask me if you have questions or have 14 adults and 1 or 2 children that will sleep in their parent's room. I am always willing to discuss options with you.

Be advised that Waltons Mountain is adjacent to rugged national forest. Wild animals frequent the area, including bears, mountain lions, and bobcats. Do not leave food and trash outside. After putting trash in the dumpster, make sure you replace the bar lock and screw to hold to bar lock in place. Be on guard while hiking in the area. Stay in groups and do not let children run around without adult supervision.

Pac'n'play provided upon request. Limited availability, not guaranteed. NO SHEET PROVIDED.

There is a 22' tall rock fireplace in open high ceiling living room. There is NO central air. There are ceiling fans in every bedroom (except the bunk basement rooms), there are box fans in most closets and there are a few portable AC units in the house.

The large full kitchen is open to the dining room and the living room. The kitchen is fully equipped with stove, refrigerator, microwave, pots, pans, dishes, silverware and oven.

The basement has a ping pong table and a foosball table and washer/dryer.

If your party rents both the Lodge and Cottage, do not remove anything from the Lodge and take it to the Cottage. These are two separate properties, help us keep each well stocked for the next guests.

The Walton family has lived on this 100 acre property for three generations and have enjoyed the beautiful views and endless outdoor activities that life on the mountain provides. We are passionate about sharing the beauty of our property with others who wish to experience the beautiful Manitou foothills and look to provide quaint comfortable accommodations for any and all looking to explore the Manitou Springs and Colorado Springs area. We spend time sharing our mountain home with our growing families and making updates, both big and small to the property. We try to keep the property as updated as we can to provide a great experience for all our guests. Thank you for your feedback and continued support of our small family business.

Our property provides a unique experience to those looking to visit the area due to its location on nearly 100 acres of private property. This gives our guests plenty of privacy and security while also being located just minutes away from downtown Manitou Springs. Both our Lodge and Cottage provide a feeling of being secluded in the mountains of Manitou Springs allowing for our guests to spend their days down in the city, and when that becomes too much, they have the option to retreat back up the hill to the privacy and quiet of the foothills. In addition to the Lodge and Cottage, there are three other homes on the mountain. **The green house, located slightly northwest of the Lodge and Cottage (up the road) should remain unbothered during the entirety of your stay. That is private property and any hiking should be done away from the green house. Do not trespass or enter their property at any time. Do not bother the tenants of the Cottage which is located in front of the Lodge.** Please drive slowly and carefully through the narrow streets in the neighborhood up the mountain road.

Manitou Springs is just minutes away for world-famous sights such as the cog railway, Garden of the Gods, the Manitou Incline, and the Cave of The Winds. Easy access to shopping, restaurants, and arcade that make downtown Manitou Springs famous. Nearby is the Adventure Out West Ziplines: where all Waltons Mountain guests receive a discount.

We love our property because it sits on nearly 100 acres of private property. You may see zip liners behind the Lodge, other cars belonging to the three other houses on the mountain and some trucks that use the city water road that is on our land. You will see and enjoy wildlife on the mountain. Deer, foxes and bears! PLEASE BE BEAR AWARE and know what to do if you come across a bear while hiking on our property. Please lock up the dumpster as this helps us keep the bears away!

TV is Samsung TV with access for the basic channels that come with Samsung TV plus ability to access your own accounts through apps like Netflix, Disney+, YouTube TV, etc. Dish/Cable TV not provided. Don't forget to log out of any personal accounts you log into during your stay.

There are times when the hot tub has an issue after someone's stay, we do our best to remedy the issue as quickly as possible but there are times we have to wait for a part to arrive and install it. Unfortunately, these problems arrive randomly and are out of our control. Refunds will not be issued if these very rare issues happen before or during your stay and affect your use of the hot tub.

Please check out our video in the video section, and photos.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! We look forward to hosting you!

Fantastic Family Reunion!

It is a great property, very comfortable, well-equipped, lots of space for eating and general seating. We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub- which is actually hot! The seven private bedrooms and two bunk rooms were perfect for our family. We had plenty of linens, pillows, blankets, etc.. Everyone in our family would like a future stay!

Great space for family reunion

Wonderful location, great accommodation. Our family ages ranged from age 9 through 78 and all were extremely comfortable with private spaces. Loved having 3 bedrooms on the main level for the less agile guests. Kids enjoyed the games and large space in the basement. Kitchen was well stocked and the hot tub was wonderful!

Cabin

Thank you for letting us stay at your beautiful cabin. The house was plenty big enough for my family and friend. The kitchen was plenty big enough for 4 to 5 people to prepare dinner. I also like that you can talk with others that are in the family room. The outside of the house was so peaceful and beautiful. I would for sure recommend staying at this cabin.

Family reunion

We had a really nice time playing games and loved the ping ping. There was plenty of space for the 16 of us to spread out. Several people enjoyed the near by zip line( the zip line company gave us a nice discount). There were a few maintenance issues that we had to deal with but it didn't ruin a good time.

Family Reunion

This was an amazing property for my family to have their annual family reunion. The house was very spacious and accommodated all of our needs. We were able to play games in the yard and enjoy the views on the back deck. The kitchen was fully stocked with every appliance you could need to make an Easter dinner. The host responded quickly to messages and was very informative. Everyone that came to the cabin had a great time! We will definitely be looking into this property in the future for other family functions.

Family Reunion/60th Birthday Celebration

I have never stayed at a property so well-equipped as Waltons Mountain Lodge. It had really anything and everything that one could imagine, as far as the kitchen goes, including crockpots, 2 different types of coffee makers, plenty of dishes, mixer, utensils, etc. They even had 2 card tables in the basement, which came in handy for our family euchre tournament. Even though there were only 3 full baths and 1 half bath for 19 of us adults, we never had any problems with sharing the baths. This is a great home for such an event as ours, which I would highly recommend to anyone looking for such a venue.

Thanksgiving vacation

This was the third time our whole family spent at Walton’s mountain lodge for thanksgiving. We come from Iowa and Colorado. We all look forward to coming every other year, even the youngest children. The lodge is idea for our large group and this year we rented the. Outage as well. Having an extra two bedrooms and kitchen was very welcome. The host, David Walton is extremely helpful and very accommodating. The fooseball and ping pong tables inspired some very competitive games. The hot tubs were a big hit, too. We highly recommend staying here.

The location was amazingly and the lodge/cottage combination fitted our family reunion perfectly. The three main floor bedrooms housed first generation (age 88-94)with easy access to kitchen, living room and back deck. Our host purchased a commercial wheelchair ramp to accommodate a wheelchair and two walkers. Everyone had a bed to sleep in! The four restrooms ensured that there was always one available for the 21 people staying and 5 extras who came for dinner. We made good use of the grill and hot tub. We had a wonderful time together.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about this house and owner! We brought 19 family members to CO from MS for a family vacation and this house was perfect for our family! We ranged in ages from 4-70. The kitchen had everything we could have possibly needed. We ate many meals together in the house, and enjoyed the grill and back patio. Everything was super clean and organized! The beds were so comfortable and the showers were amazing! We enjoyed the game tables in the basement, and had several family corn hole tournaments in the front yard. The owner was so quick to respond to me anytime I had a question about anything!

We absolutely loved our stay at Walton’s Mountain Lodge. My large family all got together for a reunion and have nothing but great things to say about this property. Everything was as advertised, the host was incredibly responsive to my 1000 questions and the location was perfect for my adventurous family.

About the host

Hosted by Caitlin Esau

Host profile image
Our family has enjoyed Waltons Mountain Lodge and Cottage for many years. The owner and his family live in Arizona. His three daughters “grew up” on the mountain when they were younger, living at the Lodge for 3-4 weeks during the summer and most Christmases. Although we are all grown with families of our own now, we all continue to visit the mountain and stay at the Lodge for a few weeks each summer so our children can experience the same joys we did on the mountain. When you send questions, inquiries and booking messages in the VRBO app, you are communicating with Caitlin who currently lives in Arizona with her husband and two children.

Why they chose this property

The Walton family has lived on this 100 acre property for three generations and have enjoyed the beautiful views and endless outdoor activities that life on the mountain provides. We are passionate about sharing the beauty of our property with others who wish to experience the beautiful Manitou foothills and look to provide quaint comfortable accommodations for any and all looking to explore the Manitou Springs and Colorado Springs area. We spend time sharing our mountain home with our growing families and making updates, both big and small to the property. We try to keep the property as updated as we can to provide a great experience for all our guests. Thank you for your feedback and continued support of our small family business.

What makes this property unique

Our property provides a unique experience to those looking to visit the area due to its location. This gives our guests plenty of privacy while also being located just minutes away from downtown Manitou Springs. Both our Lodge and Cottage provide a feeling of being fairly secluded in the mountains of Manitou Springs allowing for our guests to spend their days down in the city, and when that becomes too much, they have the option to retreat back up the hill to the privacy and quiet of the foothills.
