About this property
Close to attractions with mountain views. Walk to restaurants and shops in OCC!
Live like a local in the charming West Side of Colorado Springs. Nestled in a quiet residential area, this five-bedroom, two-bathroom home features a large dining room, a fully equipped kitchen, a large fenced-in yard, and a beautiful front porch with a swing to take in the mountain views!
There are three bedrooms on the main level of the house: one king, two queens, and a queen-size sleeper sofa in the living room. The lower level has two queen bedrooms.
The bathrooms, located on the main level of the house, have full bathtubs with showers.
The kitchen is well-stocked with everything you'll need to prepare meals. However, if you feel like dining out or ordering in, there are plenty of options close by. Just two blocks from the house, you'll find Colorado Avenue and an abundance of restaurants.
The living room on the main level has a sleeper sofa with a memory foam mattress. Downstairs features a large 50' television with a Blu-ray player and movies to enjoy a movie night when you are all tuckered out from sightseeing.
With over 100 channels, movies, board games, and books to choose from for entertainment, you can relax after a full day of taking in all of the tourist attractions.
The covered front porch and porch swing beckon you to enjoy the fresh mountain air while enjoying the views. The backyard, completely fenced in, has a large table, umbrella, a gas fire pit, and seating for an additional eight people.
You can borrow guidebooks while staying at the house, but please leave them for the next guests to use. Equipment, including a high chair, pack-and-play, and booster seat, are available for families with younger children. The house has central air and heating for comfort during all seasons.

Colorado College- 2.4 miles
Air Force Academy- 11.7 miles

About the host
Hosted by Catherine
Originally from Ann Arbor, Michigan, I have lived in many states and even a few years in Germany. I spent a few years of my childhood in Colorado Springs, and many family members have now made this area their home. My husband, from Munich, Germany, and I and our three kids and dogs love to travel as often as possible. I enjoy spending time in Colorado Springs, visiting with family, enjoying the milder climate (we live in Texas!), and taking in the laid-back culture in this area.
Why they chose this property
This house is the perfect setup for larger families to enjoy time together while offering personal space needed when traveling. The outside space offers ample seating and a porch swing to enjoy the fresh mountain air. We enjoy some of the original features but also appreciate the many upgrades done to the house. And the location... it's just perfect for vacation!
What makes this property unique
Split level with lots of space for large groups. Nice covered porch and fruit trees, including crab apple and apricot. Large dining room table to host a family or group traveling together. The quiet residential neighborhood offers the chance to live like a local.
