About this property

Imagine yourself on a private mountaintop with an enormous view, larger than Rhode Island. Then add a luxurious apartment with walls of glass to take in the scenic outlook views. You will gaze upon the actual "purple mountains" and "fruited plains" that inspired the writing of America The Beautiful.
This is a very unique property, located on a cliff, about 800' higher than the city with a 360 degree view. It consists of a fully private, nicely decorated luxury apartment located on the lower level of the house (owners live on top floor) with 2 private entrances (it is not a basement). There are actually 2 suites divided by a common hallway (like 2 hotel rooms across the hall from each other), One suite contains a master bed/bath, full kitchen and the living area. The other suite has 1 bedroom, a full bath, and a living area with a queen sofa bed. Sleeps six. Altogether there are 2 bedrooms with queen beds, a queen sleeper sofa (full thickness matress), and 2 full baths and over 1600 sq. ft. of living space. Amenities include free Wifi, 55" and three 32" TVs with Roku and cable, DVD, full kitchen, Keurig Kcup and drip brewers, master suite, carport, outdoor patio table, charcoal grill, hair dryer, iron and ironing board, W/D, and many more. There is also a Level 2 EV charger available
You will be within 5 - 10 minutes from the Broadmoor, Ft. Carson, the world famous zoo, Seven Falls, the World Arena, and the beautiful Cheyenne Canyon where you can drive or hike through gorgeous alpine country. There are 2 grocery stores, plus Sam's and Walmart within 2 miles. Also, the Air Force Academy is 20 mins, away.
Please note that my wife and I live on the top floor of the house and we are available 24/7 to make sure that our guests have a first class, trouble free experience while staying here. 420 friendly.

Great base for exploring the area.

This was our first visit to CO, so first visit to Colorado Springs, too. This property proved to be a great launchpad for exploring the local area and also driving further out, with good access to the mountains. The host was communicative and helpful, onsite (floor above) too, so very accessible. Perhaps a little unusual (but clearly stated in the listing), the hosts live in the 2nd floor and part of the VRBO is a share access corridor which is used to move between to spaces on the ground floor. The hosts were very respectful of that space during our entire stay. We only saw them when we needed to see them, aside from discreetly heading out to just get on with their day-to-day. We stayed over the Xmas period and the host went above on beyond by providing an Xmas tree and festive lights. Dedicate parking, full kitchen, our teen boy having his own bedroom, bathroom and TV lounge...and the great views from the elevated situation of the property, all contribute to a successful package.

Location & views cannot be beat!

This home is everything that is advertised in the listing. The location is wonderful and is within 15-25 minutes of all major sites you'll want to see here in Colorado Springs. The views of the mountains during the day & views of the city lights at night simply cannot be beat anywhere!! Host & his wife are wonderful and we felt very much at home during our stay. We would definitely stay here again.

Great place for a family

We had a great stay at the Cliff House -- loved having three bedrooms and two baths, and the views from the house were amazing. The house was also close to many amenities and hiking areas.

A Little Slice of Heaven

Gary and Janet have the most beautiful home. The view in the evening is breathtaking. Its true they are upstairs but you never hear from them nor see them. Everthing about this house is perfect and it was perfectly located for all of our adventures.

Hi, I'm Gary and this is my dream home. I built the separate apartment to be my own space when I can't do stairs anymore. Meanwhile it has been used for family or rentals.
Janet and I occupy the upper floor and are available 24/7. I am a retired physician, originally from Dallas, Texas
We will be delighted to suggest sites to visit and answer any questions about our beautiful city.
