Quaint cabin

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Check in was a breeze.. Cabin was modernized but kept its charm. Beautiful decorated. There were a lot of nice little touches - night lights, coffee, laundry soap, etc. we would stay here again if we are ever in the area again. Great location to Pikes Peak, Garden of the Gods, Manitou Cliff Dwelling, Broadmore Seven Falls and we took a day trip to the Royal Gorge park and Bridge. This cabin was great!

Pikes Peak Perfection!

We loved this cozy 1940's cabin which has been completely renovated with modern amenities but keeping with the 40's charm! Easy to access Rt 24 for adventures but nestled on the wooded hillside. We slept so comfortably on the Dreamcloud mattresses and comfy sheets. There were plenty of towels and hot water for the four of us. We loved sipping our coffee on the front porch rockers. The cabin had everything we needed to make our Pikes Peak vacation perfect. Jim is an thoughtful host and good communicator. We hope to return someday!

Caves, peaks, and gardens.

Super clean, comfortable, well stocked, and unique. The details that have gone into this cabin are impressive. Good location to see attractions but return to peace and quiet when wanted.

Second time to stay here

We had the fortune to be the first VRBO guest this past summer. Second time around late December did not disappoint. The craftsmanship of the cabin is amazing. The cleanliness and all new furniture, new kitchen, new bath etc were exceptional. Fantastic host to boot. 6 out of 5 stars.

Beautiful Cabin!

The cabin is as beautiful as the pictures indicate. Great attention to detail and I had everything that I could possibly have expected during my stay. I am a bonehead and thought my check out time was 11 instead of 10 but was treated with patience and kindness!! Thank you!!

Awesome retreat

We needed a peaceful getaway and this was it. Accommodations 5-star. James was great to work with. It was comfortable and quiet and the bonus was the deer we saw every morning. Can't say enough good...we will definitely recommend this cabin and will be back.

Coolest Cabin Experience in Colorado

We spent 4 relaxing and family filled days in the Mountains of Cascade, just outside Colorado Springs. Jim and his lovely wife have done a phenomenal job restoring this 1940's cabin to a time capsule pristine condition.- with the exception of all new appliances, bathroom, furniture and anything else you would need. Attention to detail is amazing. 12 out of 10 stars if possilbe.

About the host

Hosted by James Wing

Host profile image
My wife, Alicia, and I (James/Jim) are long-time (25+ years) Colorado Springs residents. We found each other at the University of Colorado in the late 80s and have been together ever since. Alicia is a financial software consultant. I do information technology (IT) for the U.S. Space Force, and manage a few rental units (aka "our semi-retirement plan"). I love renovating/restoring properties and meeting people, so a vacation rental seems a perfect endeavor to keep me busy & engaged.

Why they chose this property

We stumbled upon this great property in 2019 and fell in love with it. Jim spent 2+ years restoring the cabin -- keeping the original charm as much as possible, while bringing the kitchen & bath up to modern sanitation standards. I became an expert window glazier, restoring hundreds of panes in the true divided-lite windows, but it was worth it.

What makes this property unique

We see wildlife every day. It is just far enough outside the city for serenity, but close enough for convenience.
