About this property

"Outpost Cottage" mountain retreat in Manitou Springs—style, views, location

Outpost Cottage is a stylishly updated historic cottage overlooking the charming town of Manitou Springs in the shadow of PIkes Peak, all within a short drive of bustling Colorado Springs. This thoughtfully restored 1920s bungalow features a new kitchen, tile bathroom, and all new furnishings. With huge views, outdoor living spaces, and fabulous location, it's the perfect home base for the traveling professional, seasonal visitor, digital nomad, writer, artist, or anyone seeking a peaceful change of pace. This cozy 550-square-foot bungalow was built in the 1920s as a summer getaway for wealthy families from the East Coast seeking the clean air of the Rockies and the healing waters of Manitou's famous natural springs. Today it's the perfect home base for the traveling professional, seasonal visitor, digital nomad, or anyone seeking a peaceful change of pace. Walk to trails, restaurants, galleries, the legendary Manitou Incline, Cog Railway, Miramont Castle, and more, all just steps from your doorstep. Or stay home to soak in the sweeping mountain views right from your old-fashioned back porch (with porch swing!) and expansive deck, complete with Adirondack chairs and a porch swing. With thoughtful touches like a dedicated workspace (with inspiring views!), smart tvs in the living room and bedroom, washer-dryer, local art, outdoor living spaces and peaceful style, Outpost Cottage is the perfect basecamp for your next chapter.
