Very nice property in a lovely setting. It was probably the best stocked VRBO I've ever rented. Plenty of toilet tissue, paper towels, even laundry detergent. The owner was very responsive whenever we needed to contact her. Would definitely stay again!

Beautiful house in a beautiful setting

It was a fun place to stay. We had family over for dinner one gray evening and it all worked out great. The kitchen is well stocked with everything and easy to work in. The deck was a fun place to hang out. It is a very comfortable house. Thank you.

Wonderful Stay in Colorado Springs

We had such a lovely stay in this home just outside the hustle and bustle of the city. The views of the mountains and the deer that walked through the backyard were a wonderful treat! The spacious bedrooms allowed for comfortable sleeping for our family of six. Owners were beyond accommodating during our stay! We would absolutely stay here again when in the area!

Best rental so far. It was clean, beds were very comfortable, and had many extras other rentals don’t include. Beautiful mountain view from deck and quiet area but close to Walmart, dining, and main roads.

Perfect little cabin

We really enjoyed this cabin - perfect layout with a master suite on either side and sliding doors from each suite that affords access to the deck. The deck has ample seating and quaint lighting during the evening. The cabin was extremely clean and the host provided hiking and eating tips that were great. Location was easily accessible. Highly recommend this cabin!

Best winter vacation spot!

This house was amazing! Six adults and we fit comfortably. We were able to cook a few large meals in the well stocked kitchen. Very clean and quiet. Got to see deer almost everyday. After it snowed someone came and cleared the driveway. We can’t wait to go back!

Chalet de cerf

Adorable cottage in a beautiful and quiet location. Nicely updated with plenty of room for a family of four. Wide doorways and walkin showers(no lip) made the cabin extremely friendly for my 86 year old mother with a walker. A family of deer visited us daily. All in all it was the perfect location and accomodations for our needs.

Fabulous Cabin

This cabin was amazing. It was close to everything we wanted to do around Colorado Springs, but in the woods which allowed for that secluded vibe we wanted. There was wildlife galore to watch from the huge deck. This cabin is comfortable and has everything you need to either relax, or entertain a few friends/family. The host was easy to contact when we ran out of something and very accommodating. This cabin is a must stay if you're in Colorado Springs!
