Amazing property and kind home owners

The view from the house was so pretty and it was very open. Everything was nicely set up and easy to find/manage. The drive to Colorado Springs and Falcon was cool because you can spot a lot of wildlife along the roads and even some mule deer were just outside the back porch. The garage was a big help when it started to rain, and was also helpful when we unloaded and loaded our luggage. The home owners were easy to talk to and left a great information binder.

Not thrilled

On the positive side, the location of the property was great, it was out of the main hustle and bustle of the town but close enough to run to the store and grab something when we needed it. My daughter was able to park her camper on the property which was a big plus for our family. There was also a very large garage connected to the house that we enjoyed sitting in to escape the heat of the sun and enjoy the fresh air, and the house was spacious and well stocked and the view was beautiful. However, there were many things that made my children and I uncomfortable about the home. The first would be the cleanliness of the house, especially the kitchen and bathrooms. There were dead moths on the kitchen windowsill that had been there for a while. The sinks in the bathrooms were gritty and the master bathroom shower had dried hair on the wall and black debris that came out from under the shower door. The bedrooms were mostly clean until I discovered a stain on the master bedroom sheets which made me feel as if I were sleeping in a dirty bed. Secondly, there was a ring camera at the front door of the home and a camera above the garage door that were not disclosed to us before our arrival and made us all feel watched and listened to. This feeling of being watched was then reinforced when we removed a piece of tape covering from the outdoor garage lights to turn them off for the night. We returned to the house after an outing that same night with the lights turned back on and the tape replaced. Many things in the home are labeled with rules of what can and cannot be touched, the light switch, however, only had tape and no label, so we saw no harm in just turning it off during the nights of our stay. Lastly, the house is dated and in need of a handful of repairs and maintenance. We found out that the washing machine was not in working order just before our stay. The owner did reach out to us to say that they were not able to repair it until after we left. This is understandable but that is one thing we certainly counted on having. In the end, the owners did apologize for the inconvenience but offered no compensation or real solutions for the discomfort that we felt and some of the frustrations that we faced. My overall experience was mediocre and disappointing.

Quiet and peaceful

Traveled to Colorado to spend a week with family and attend a wedding. This property was very close to where we needed to be. The home was spacious, clean and very quiet. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for daily meals. We enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this property.

Close to Peyton

Great property. Location is good for visiting family that live in the Peyton/Calhan area, since there are no lodging options. Also directly north of the town of Falcon for shopping convenience. Very clean and spacious house, and a garage to park in.
