This adorable 900 square foot Cottage is located in scenic and serene Cheyenne Canyon, just a 10 minute walk from the renowned Broadmoor resort. A fenced backyard is great for small to mid-size dogs and especially private for patio dining. Wraparound windows in the master bedroom feel like sleeping in a treehouse and the nearby creek and chimes from Will Rogers shrine will lull you to sleep each night. Three hiking areas are walkable from the house, and downtown is a short bus ride away. A gift certificate to nearby Sacred Grounds Cafe is included!

A few notes about my quaint and cozy cottage. (It's a bit quirky because it was built in 1909.)
The driveway is handy, but small. 1 large car or 2 compact cars max.
Dogs are welcome—first dog is included in base rate; $25 additional per dog. Please take advantage of the towels at the back door if they are coming in wet or dirty. Dogs may not be left in the house alone. Clean up after the dog, inside and outside. Fine may apply for pet damage or messes.
Coffee, (regular and decaf), cocoa, and tea are in the cupboard above the coffee pot.
You’ll find a gift certificate to the coffee shop/cafe up the street on the kitchen bulletin board.
Should you want to (take a bubble bath and) enjoy TV in the evening, you can access all streaming apps with your credentials, or watch loads of free Comcast and Peacock streaming. Just use the small remote to control the TV.
There are 11 steps (narrow and turning) to the upstairs. No large luggage advised upstairs. Beware the top step landing—it is quirky. HOLD THE HANDLES when you are going down the stairs, and if you're sleeping in the "office" be especially careful as the landing is smaller than you would expect coming out of the door. PROCEED WITH CAUTION. Guests who are slight of foot should sleep downstairs on the comfiest sofa bed in the city. Sofa bedding is in the living room coat closet. For the best sofa bed experience, lay the 3” memory foam mattress topper on the mattress, followed by sheets, blankets, and pillows. Futon bed is also fitted with a 3" memory foam topper. Sleep tight!
This home does not have an air conditioner. There are fans in the master bedroom closet (and a space heater).
If you are staying over a Tuesday night, please take the trash cans to the curb. Green is recycle (single stream); brown is trash. Trash/recycle is collected throughout the day on Wednesday, beginning as early as 7:30am. The bungee cords must be used, due to snacky raccoons and bears.
The garbage disposal is operated by the on/off switch on the power strip under the sink.
The fireplace is cozy; the flue opens by pulling out toward you. OPEN THE FLUE before lighting a fire and close the flue after the fire is completely out. This keeps the heat from escaping through the chimney and the smoke from pushing out into the house. A duraflame log is provided, and additional wood may be purchased at the nearby Safeway. The chiminea outside also takes a chill off cool evenings. Matches are on the mantle.
