This rustic mountain getaway in beautiful Florissant Colorado is just minutes away from so many things, from the history and hiking of Florissant Fossil beds National Monument to the excitement of the Cripple Creek Casinos. Nearby you will also find the recreational areas of Pikes Peak and all of the attractions of Manitou Springs and Colorado Springs. A short drive south (37miles) will find you at the magnificent Royal Gorge Bridge and the heart pounding thrills of white water rafting the Arkansas River. Our 2500 sq ft log home has a dazzling view of Pikes Peak from the living room or the spacious deck. The 3 bedroom home with the bonus sleeping arrangements downstairs easily sleeps 8 adults (a Pack and Play baby crib is also in the home). A 2020 remodel brought luxury and convivence to the home with updated bathrooms and all new kitchen appliances. The kitchen/dining area will comfortably seat your entire family and then some. In 2021 An automatic whole house emergency back up generator was added for guests security and peace of mind. In 2025 we are excited to share our new remodeled and replaced outside deck. This over 600 square foot elevated outdoor space is a popular hangout with its breathtaking view of Pikes Peak. Local wildlife that almost daily visit the property is a guest favorite.

Such a beautiful cabin to celebrate our family’s Christmas! The host was so attentive and made sure to check in during our stay. We had 0 issues. Highly recommend this place if you are looking for somewhere to stay in the area.
The owner went above and beyond in every aspect with the amenities in the home, toiletries, laundry detergent (you name it) and excellent communication. He even gave us a wedding gift for our stay there on our honeymoon. Fantastic place!

Stories like yours are one of the reasons Ann and I enjoy sharing our home.. thank you for staying at Matterhorn Meadows. We hope to host you again. Safe travels and enjoy this next chapter of your life.
Clean cabin with good views from the back windows. The rooms were well kept and everything worked as expected. Zero issues checking in or checking out. The host was very open with communication and making sure the house was ready for our specific party if we needed special accommodations.
Matterhorn Meadows would get 6 stars if it were possible. We were blown away by the well maintained property, the ultra clean cabin , the gorgeous views and great location! . Andy and family were exceptional hosts and were easily accessible throughout our entire stay. I would highly recommend this property to anyone!.

Thank you for choosing to stay at Matterhorn Meadows. That part of Colorado is so much fun this time of year. We hope to host you again. Safe travels.
Beautiful views in a home big enough for a large family. The cabin feel, large property and huge deck add to the greatness of the home. We saw plenty of wildlife including a doe and her fawn. Andy is an amazing host and was quick to respond during our stay. We would love to come back.

Thank you for choosing to stay with us. I understand the feeling, often when I am there I just want to hang around the cabin and enjoy the surroundings also. But you’re right, this time of year there are many attractions close by. We hope you enjoyed all of them. Safe travels.
Just a great place. The home is wonderful, well appointed and clean, great area to visit winter or summer to escape the world. Wonderful hosts and everything was as expected.

Thank you for choosing to stay with us. We hope to host you again we enjoy this part of America also. Safe travels.
The cabin was absolutely gorgeous and the view of Pikes Peak was amazing. Little touches the owners thought of made it that much better. We loved being away from the towns and in the quiet hills. We would definitely stay here again.

We hope that you come back to Matterhorn Meadows one day ... we love to contribute to family fun memories. Safe travels.
In all reality, Matterhorn Meadows is what you would expect from a high quality VRBO in the mountains; the host, the property, the views, the location, the wildlife, the abundance of attractions within an hours drive were all phenomenal! If you are looking to stay in this area, this is the place for you!

I like the word phenomenal. I am a flatlander, and I try to get to the mountains as often as I can. Thank you for choosing to stay at Matterhorn Meadows we hope to host you again.
I would highly recommend staying at Miles from Anything, In the Middle of Everything. Andy is a great host who really wants his guests to enjoy their stay and makes sure you have everything you need. The house was well stocked with things in the kitchen, bathroom, and everything else. I can’t say enough good about Andy.
Secluded, scenic views, comfortable. Every thing we were hoping for. Well stocked with all we could have asked for. We would happily stay there again. No complaints at all.

Fantastic place to stay! Everything was wonderful down to the smallest detail. Beautiful house, beautiful view and great location. It was everything we could have asked for and more. Great access to anything you could want to do. We rode horses, explored caves, rafted on the Arkansas River and visited the Royal Gorge and more. We made some wonderful memories and wouldn't hesitate to go back.

Great location, incredible view of Pikes Peak, great host
Great location for day trips to Pikes Peak & Garden of the Gods, Gold Belt Scenic Tour, Royal Gorge, Mt. Princeton Hot Springs and Spa. Great sunset view of Pikes Peak and gorgeous sun rises too! We had a full moon rising over Pikes Peak to top our trip off! And Natasha (the deer) was there to meet us when we arrived and was there to tell us goodbye. Great host, great place~

Thanks for choosing to stay with us. Ann and Natasha and I hope you stay with us again. Safe travels.
What a gorgeous cabin! Beautifully remodeled, with large windows that captured the perfect view of the mountain peak. It was the quiet getaway my husband and I were looking for. The cabin was warm for the chilly nights, and the kitchen was filled with everything we needed. Not to mention spotless. We will definitely return.
