This was the perfect short walk to downtown Manitou while just outside the shopping so still a quiet and tranquil stay. Everything we needed was provided and we all enjoyed the vacation a lot.
Cute little cabin, good walk up appeal. Easy entree, instructions very clear. walking easy to eateries and shopping. Easy drive to Pike’s Peak and Garden of the Gods!
We absolutely loved our stay at the little house by the creek in Manitou Springs. The house was absolutely perfect for everything we needed, especially the location both to downtown and Pikes Peak and Garden of the Gods. We were able to park and walk most of the week without having to take our vehicle anywhere. Loved the creekside patio really appreciate your hospitality. We will definitely be back as soon as possible.

This property is perfectly situated for hiking, shopping, and many great restaurants. The property was clean, and the property manager was in contact with us throughout our stay.
The house was clean, the bed was comfy and the town was adorable! We loved our stay and if we come back to Manitou Springs, we will definitely stay again!
The cottage is conviently located to downtown Manitou Springs- walking distance to many shops and restaurants and only a short drive to many major attractions. The house met all of our needs. We would gladly stay here again!
Really enjoyed our stay in the little blue house. Will make a point of coming back in the summer.

Great location! Very relaxing!
Enjoyed the convenience of walking to stores and restaurants. Loved the home like feel inside and relaxing outside on the hammock, listening to the creek, and seeing beautiful mountains!

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The charming house sits in the middle of prime location for shopping, dining and sightseeing in the beautiful town of Manitou Springs. We couldn’t have asked for a better location. The house was clean and were impressed with all the essentials that were available throughout the house. The owner reached out by text just to ensure we had no concerns or needs. It was perfect.
This was a super cute home in the perfect location! We were within driving distance of several attractions and within walking distance of shopping and dining. The home was comfortable and had everything we needed! Some other renters had a hard time with parking- we didn’t have any problems tho! Loved our stay!
My family absolulty loved this little cottage. It is nestled in a perfect location to so many wonderful things. It was clean and perfect. I recommend this place to anyone. I loved every minute there.
Great for a couple. Loved the location, located on one end of the long Manitou Avenue street full of small town restaurants and gift shops. To be sure, it is an old house; but if you are fine with that, then this gives you all that you need. We would stay here again.
Perfect cottage for my sister and myself to enjoy the nearby sights, hiking, shopping, and dining of Manitou Springs, as well as make the trip to Golden to catch a show at Red Rocks Amphitheater. Especially enjoyed the back patio area in the evenings, and close proximity to the Incline.
