The Space:
Get ready for all your Instagram-worthy, modern cabin dreams to come true as you take in this gorgeous property surrounded by ponderosa pines and spruce trees. This hideaway is made of wood and glass, allowing guests to feel like there’s barely a barrier between themselves and the stunning forest environment. The driveway can fit up to 3 cars, so no need to park on the nearby winding streets.
The bedrooms are spread out among the two floors of the house, with the master bedroom on the top floor that shares a bathroom with the public area. The other three are on the lower floor all with access to a walkout patio, which lets in bright, beautiful light during the day. Each bedroom has been adorned with plush cushions, cozy blankets, and decor that suits the mood of a deluxe mountain cabin.
This evergreen oasis is brightly lit thanks to the unique design of large glass sliding doors and windows that line the north-facing wall. There is a spacious patio where guests can take in the surrounding beauty while enjoying a barbecue dinner, or hot cuppa joe in the morning. The eat-in kitchen with mountain views will make cooking uber-enjoyable, while the living area will only enhance a cozy night in with friends and family.
Two living areas create a comfortable space for up to 10 guests (and 2 dogs!) with one on each floor giving you and your loved ones the freedom to do what you please. Whether you’re reminiscing about the day of adventures, or preparing for a night of drinks and games, cozy couches and a natural ambiance will set the tone for your uniquely Colorado vacation.

The Neighborhood:
This one of a kind cabin is located in the mountains just 15 minutes up Ute Pass, just west of Colorado Springs: a vibrant and historic city full of exciting sights, shops, galleries, festivals, and more. Meanwhile, the location in which this property was built is a historic resort community that has a number of quaint, local spots to eat and visit.
Nearby is the Black Bear Distillery — good news for whisky lovers — as well as some great restaurants like the Mucky Duck and bars in the village that will satisfy your culinary cravings. Woodland Park, a slightly larger community, is located a short drive north of the property, which has more options for food and shopping.
For folks who like to explore the outdoors, you’re in luck. The cabin is a stone’s throw away from a number of hiking and biking trails leading into the Rocky Mountains. It’s also only 5 minutes to the famous Pikes Peak Highway, the North Pole amusement park, and just 10 minutes from Manitou Springs.
Getting Around:
Although there are plenty of restaurants, bars and outdoor recreational opportunities close to this property, we recommend that you have a four wheel drive car to access the property, especially in the winter, when traveling in the Pikes Peak Region.

The Wandlerlust Lookout was perfect for our Colorado trip! Close to many activities, tourist spots and great restaurants. The view from the house is beautiful!! The layout with the upper and lower spaces made for a great stay. The house was stocked with everything we needed during our weeklong stay. Host responses to messages were timely and helpful.
We have enjoyed our getaway. The place was absolutely stunning with scenic views and perfect location.

Thank you for the feedback Liliya! We are so fortunate to live in such a beautiful part of Colorado and can’t wait to have you stay again in the future! - Hoste
Location was great. It’s close to all the hot spots. We were right in the middle of every tourist activity we wanted. I enjoyed the huge deck and that there was a grill provided. The roads were a little tricky but the owner explained that in description. The owner was quick to reply to my questions.

Thank you! We're glad you enjoyed the location, the deck, and the grill—and we appreciate your kind words about our communication. We'd love to host you again!
This house was perfect for our family of six! Plenty of space for my four sons to chill and relax in the lower level while my husband and I enjoyed the peace, quiet, and views on the outside deck.It was a great location to go visit all the must-sees, like Pike’s Peak, Manitou Springs, and Garden of the Gods! Also quick access to Woodland Park for groceries (like a bottle of wine while enjoying the scenery on the deck). I absolutely recommend this!
The place was very nice with great views from the balcony. The entire process was smooth from booking to check in / check out process. Very accommodating

It's fantastic to know that the booking and check-in/check-out process went smoothly and that our team was accommodating. If you ever decide to visit again, we'll be here to assist you. Thank you for choosing to stay with us!
We have been here 2 times in 6 months. Will always come here. Perfect location. Close to things to do. Manitou Springs is cool little town. 20 minutes away. We love this place.
What a find! This house was so great. Mid-century style with an expansive view through floor to ceiling windows overlooking the hills. We had a spring snow storm while we were here which made it all the more cozy. The host was extremely responsive and proactive with communication and check in and check out was seamless. We have rented many houses around the world and this one stood out for being so unique. Would definitely return!

Thanks so much, Meredith! We’re thrilled you loved the vibe of the house and the views, even with the surprise spring snow. Glad the communication and check-in went smoothly—that’s always our goal. It means a lot to hear this stay stood out among your travels. We’d be excited to welcome you back anytime!
Great location close to all the sights in the area
Our first time to Colorado. Check-in was seamless. House was very clean. Wonderful views. We were 15 minutes from entrance to Pikes Peak. Less than 30 minutes from Garden of the Gods, Seven Falls, and Colorado Springs. 10 minutes from grocery store. I would stay here again without hesitation.
The house is perfect for the most beautiful Mountain View. We really enjoyed getting up every morning, having coffee & breakfast while looking at the most beautiful scenery. We were 4 adults (grandparents & parents) with one 6 month old, so having the downstairs area/den with the baby was so convenient. Overall the house is very cozy and the location was great for our agenda. I would definitely recommend for families!
My only complaint would be water pressure being poor, but I understand it is mostly due to altitude of the location. House was large enough for 2 or maybe even 3 families, though it was just 4 of us. Fire place was great, balcony was amazing with a good view. The drive to the house was initially scary coming from plain, flat Kansas roads but after a few trips we got used to it. Location is 10 to 20 minutes from most types of restaurants and stores as well as pikes peak and other various destinations.

Thank you for your kind words about the spacious home, fireplace, and balcony views. We appreciate your understanding about the water pressure and are glad you enjoyed the location and nearby attractions.
We had a wonderful stay at your place. The coffee pot should be replaced for next guest so they don’t have to struggle with it. I sent a email with pictures of the master sink with towel under it because it was leaking water . Also sent pictures of squirrels that are using stuffing from back porch cushions to makes their nests with. Other than those items it is a very nice place to visit.

Hi Kelly!
Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate your kind words about your stay and we have addressed the issues you mentioned to ensure a seamless experience for future guests. We're glad you enjoyed your visit overall and hope to welcome you back soon!
Was very comfortable. A few ishes that the maintenance said he would come back and fix but never showed. The light didnt work in the kitchen so we had to bring a lamp from downstairs to see at night and the plug for the TV didnt work. Other then that everything was very good. The views are wonderful and all the beds very comfortable. We would definitely stay again.

Hi Deb. We're glad to hear that you found the stay very comfortable and enjoyed the wonderful views and comfortable beds. However, we apologize for the issues you encountered with the light in the kitchen and the TV plug. We appreciate your understanding and feedback, and we'll work to address these issues promptly to ensure a better experience for future guests. Thank you for your patience, and we look forward to hosting you again on your next stay.
Overall, the place was great. We loved the views and the fireplace was used every day. The house offered plenty of space and was very comfortable.
My suggestions would be first (and I say this at every house I stay in)...more storage...more shelves, hooks, cabinets, drawers. And second, it was pretty chilly during the first part of the week that we were there and the house could get cold and drafty. The fireplace was a huge help, but maybe consider some thick curtains and electric blankets to help offset the chills.
Thanks very much!

Disliked: Communication
We left an expensive suit behind and contacted the manager within an hour of leaving the property. We were going to be back in the area a few days later and could have picked up the suit. But after countless communications, the manager told us they could not find the suit.
If you're looking to relax a bit in the mountains and get away from the city this house is perfect. 4 bedrooms could of fit both our families but it was just us. The setting is perfect. A big balcony and a big patio under. Kitchen was open with living room with a nice wood burning fireplace. Heating worked very well in the house. Hot water could of been a bit warmer but I think we might of been doing 2 showers at once and that could of been my problem. The host was very responsive with all my questions. And there is a Walmart pretty close. Only thing I wished they had firewood I had to buy some but if I knew I'd brought an ax plenty of wood around. Overall the house is perfect for a Pikes peak getaway! And no actual complaints from us we had to leave early because of a family emergency and the host was very responsive and caring.
Thank you all for the stay. We will be back
