Colorado College is also just a few blocks away and the neighborhood is home to many students attending this prestigious liberal arts school. With urban amenities so close and still offering a more quiet, suburban feel, this is a great location to spend a holiday. And being centrally located in the geographic heart of the Pikes Peak Region means that all of the primary attractions for visitors and guests to the area are all within a 15 minute drive.
