Hummingbirds, deer, fox, and Black Bear just to name a few.

The place was very clean! The host was very nice, respectful, helpful, and very responsive. It was really nice having an open line of communication with a host. You don't really get that type of service. He went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed, and was able to get us anything else we requested. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed, from essentials to cleaning supplies. I truly appreciate everything he did to make this trip so special for us.Thank you so much for being such an amazing host!

We stayed at this property for 5 nights at Christmas, and it was the perfect setting for our family. We had 5 adults and 4 kids for the stay. There was plenty of room for all (1 family had the whole downstairs to play in). It was supplied with all that we needed. The host was very quick in response to all my questions, and even put up a Christmas tree so we could really celebrate the holiday. Close to North Pole/Santa's Workshop, Pike's Peak, Garden of the Gods, and shopping. Some of the adults hiked the trail that was across the road, and got some beautiful views of Pike's Peak. The rest of us just hung around enjoying the deck and view.

This is the 2nd time we have stayed at this property, and both times it was perfect. Communication is fast. Checking in and out is simple. The house is huge with absolutely beautiful views. We have 2 more visits to C. Springs in the future and are hoping that this property is available so we can stay here again.

Memorial Weekend

This house is very family friendly. My 7 month old had plenty of room to crawl around and it was very baby safe. My 5 year old loved how she could go outside on the deck and watch for wildlife and go walking in the woods. Very comfortable stay and beautiful views. Very easy to get to just about anywhere. We would definintly stay here again.

Convenient location to get to various attractions and to Woodland Park and Manitou Springs. Comfortable beds, plenty of pillows and bedding. 2 kitchens which came in handy. Hot tub was perfect. Communication with Mr. Laggart was great, very quick and responsive. We recommend staying here.

Great property. Definitely a mountain property so no trails or hiking available at the location but a great place to stay in the Colorado Springs area.

I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. The Mount Esther trail, aka RTP trail head is about a quarter of a mile to the east on mountain road from the house. It is only a 5 minute walk from the house.

This place should be your first choice

Absolutely loved the house, the view, and the quiet coziness you get for the price. Its nestled near Manitou Springs, Garden of the Gods, The cave settlements, and the Cave tour where you can visit the location, tire yourself out then in less than 10 mins be back at the house to take a nap to recharge. Just be mindful driving through the neighborhood there was a lot of deer roaming in the area.

We enjoyed the house it was very spacious and plenty of room for our big group. The road is very curvy and the driveway is downhill with 3 vehicles was a bit of a challenge at first but we figured it out. The views from the back deck were beautiful.
