Our host, Megan, was incredibly accommodating and helpful before, during, and after our trip.The property's location is ideal, being very close to the Garden of the Gods, allowing for easy access to hikes. It's also conveniently located just 15-30 minutes from the attractions and activities in the area.The property itself was fun and retro, and it was fully equipped with everything we needed, from cooking supplies to amenities for a relaxing night in, and comfortable spaces for resting and recovery after long days of hiking.We absolutely loved our stay and will definitely choose this property every time we visit Colorado Springs! I would highly recommend it.

great location wonderful property

We spent 4 nights with my dog and several family and friends at this property. It worked perfectly for what we needed! The kitchen was very well appointed with all necessary spices and appliances. The batrooms were functional and attractive, the bedding was comfortable, and the living spaces were comfortable and welcoming. I especially loved the turntable and vinyl albums. The location was amazing as well; near the downtown Manitou Springs and Colorado City areas. I would stay here again!

Everything we needed. Kitchen was well stocked, house was clean, beds and living room were comfortable. There is an outlet in each of the bathrooms and the water stayed hot through many showers. Google and Alexa speakers were present along with Roku on the TV. Wifi was present and good for phone use.

Great home for family get-together!

I chose this house because of the perfect location (4 blocks from the Garden of the Gods) and for the bedroom locations which allowed space for everyone to gather yet have their privacy. The kitchen had everything you needed to cook PLUS snacks such as water in the frig, popcorn, candy, marshmallows and graham crackers (for the fire pit). Nice touches all around, and Megan was very quick to respond to any questions. If you like to sleep in, you'll definitely want the downstairs bedroom as the morning light shines in through the high windows in the upstairs bedrooms. Short walk to the Buffalo Bicycle Lodge for music and both Manitou Springs and Old Colorado Springs were fun to visit. (There is a great bus system for Manitou Springs so you don't have to find parking.) Would definitely come here again!

Great Choice for Colorado Springs

Let me start by saying this was probably the cleanest home I have ever been in. The kitchen and bathrooms were spotless. That's a big +++ from my perspective. I have stayed at a couple dozen properties over the years during our travels and this home is without question in my top three for overall attention to detail by the owner. The kitchen was very nicely stocked and all of the cookware and dishes were organized and in the proper quantities. I highly recommend this property for your family. The mid-century modern feel was cool and all of the other furniture and beds were in good condition and comfortable. It was in a good central location to all of the sites and activities that we were planning for our trip, so everyone was pleased and happy with our choice. Thank you for sharing your home with our family.

We greatly enjoyed staying here. The house was very clean and the kitchen contents were all we needed. The neighborhood was quiet and had very little traffic. Manitou Springs was an easy 10 minute, or less, drive away. Megan's communication was great and she quickly responded to any questions I had before arriving. She also gave us directions to two different trail heads into Garden of the Gods, each just a short walk from the house. One of which we probably would not of found on our own. This was our first experience renting a house instead of using a hotel and we were not let down. We hope to book this place again in the future.

What a cool set up! Megan thought of it all. From the record player to the cozy corners and perfect linens, we loved all the details. Space for everyone to unwind and my boys loved having their own patio outside their bedroom. Lots of Stargazing!

Megan is an excellent host. Very quick and clear communication. The location is superb - walk to Garden of The Gods, see deer in the front yard, and walk to a live music venue. The place is very cozy and clean with all amenities and great toiletries. The beds are very comfortable and the pillows are like clouds. This place lives up to the positive reviews.

Walk Into Garden of the Gods

This house was very clean. Communication with the host was easy and pleasant. The home had some recent updates and the host did simple nice gestures such as food items in the cupboard and a bottle of wine in the refrigerator. The best feature of this house is the fact that you can walk down the dead end street into The Garden of the Gods. This was a very special thing to do early in the morning and in the evening for sunrise and sunset. We thought the pictures of the house and especially the covered patio were misleading and not an accurate presentation. From the pictures online, the description and the cost paid, we were expecting a higher quality home.

Excellent VRBO Home!

We stayed for five nights in this lovely home, centrally located with quick, easy access to the Garden of the Gods, Manitou Springs, and Pikes Peak. The house was very comfortable and spacious. Megan is an excellent host and provided a well-stocked and clean rental home. The modern architecture of the home is very appealing. The street the house is on is ideal for quiet, relaxing walks and takes you right into Garden of the Gods (a nice, 7-minute walk). This is an excellent VRBO rental, and we highly recommend it!

Amazing

The house was everything advertised. An accessible walkout balcony from either upstairs bedroom and a nice seating patio downstairs with a gas grill and fire pit. Easy five minute walk to a Garden of the Gods trail (climbing on the rock formations was a favorite for the kids and it’s FREE)! Easy access to everything you want to visit. Nearby horse stables come by the front with all the daily tours. Kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms were all very clean and stocked. Megan was GREAT at communicating quickly any time we had a question! Check in was a breeze! I would highly recommend this house if you are visiting the area!!!

The house was clean and well stocked with all the usual shampoo, soap, etc and things I consider extra and very nice like sunscreen. The kitchen was well stocked. The location was an easy walk to Garden of the Gods and a short drive from Manitou (Pikes Peak and hiking). This was my first VRBO experience and the owner was very helpful and responsive to my questions.
