Cute and comfy!
Everything about our stay was fantastic! Kristine, our host, thought of everything, down to restaurant and activity recommendations. The accommodations are clean and comfortable, with a manicured yard and lots of spaces to enjoy the outdoors or curl up with a good book. Definitely planning a return trip!
We had a wonderful stay at this property. It had everything we needed as a family of 4. Property owner, Kristine, was amazing. She checked in to see how things were going and made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. I would stay here again and highly recommend to others.
We had an amazing time & so thankful we found this home. Kristine was very pleasant and helpful prior to and during our stay. The home was extremely clean & adorable. Our family had no concerns or complaints. We were very happy with our stay!

Lovely!
Gorgeous home with everything you need! This house is nestled in a quaint little neighborhood right next to downtown. Hosts were gracious and generous! We would stay here again anytime we come to Colorado Springs!
Enjoyed every moment at this very clean, comfortable, well-located house with every amenity we needed. Loved the walkable neighborhood close to several restaurants, trails and parks.
Fireplace and fire table especially nice for our October stay. Kristine went above and beyond by mailing something I forgot. Hope we can return.
Gorgeous property with everything you need. House is nestled into a quaint little neighborhood right next to downtown. Super gracious and generous hosts. Don’t pass this one up!
I can honestly say this is the nicest property we have stayed at in Colorado Springs. The location was fantastic, the communication with owner was great but most of all the house was amazing. Everything was perfect. The property is so well thought out and every space is used to its fullest extent. I would most definitely stay here again and again. Thank you for allowing us to use your property, it was amazing!
The owners were fantastic from the start! The house was very clean, great location and comfortable. Any possible amenity was included. We received some cookies and wine as a welcoming gift. The information booklet was very helpful also! The house decor was outstanding. The outside decor was a whole other level

Our vacation was absolutely amazing! We can not say enough about Kristine and her hospitality to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. She provided a detailed booklet about the house and all the things to do. This was the perfect location for day trips all within an hour or less and only minutes from downtown.The house was immaculate and loved the back yard with fresh tomatoes and herbs ready to pick and the beautiful flowers.Thank you so much Kristine!
This house is wonderful. Great location, exceptionally clean and filled with every item a family might ever need! Kristine is one of the most incredibly communicative owners I have ever encountered. The "Welcome Book" is beyond helpful and informative. EVERYTHING is covered and we always knew where to go, what to do, and how to get there. We will be back - excellent home - one of our faves!
This home is extremely clean and well equipped. Location was very central … close to downtown yet situated in the suburbs. Property owner was genuinely concerned about our comfort, and checked in with us to ask if we needed anything else. What I especially liked was the manual onsite. Every detail for this house was spelled out in the manual … from how to operate the TVs to how to use the Bluetooth speaker. Luv’d this house … thank you so much!
This is one of the nicest VRBOs we have stayed at. Very clean and comfortable with more amenities and extras than I can list. Kitchen clean and well-stocked. Furniture and beds very comfortable. Window seat, outdoor lighting, fire table on front deck all fun extras. Backyard view of Pike’s Peak, deck and seating, and landscaping all added to our stay.
We loved the location, close to Memorial Park and Prospect Lake, Shook’s Run green space, several restaurants and a coffee shop, and even Walgreen’s. The owner’s manual was very readable and helpful.
Last but not least communication with Kristine was welcoming and appreciated. Planning a return visit!
This place was awesome! Lots of outdoor seating areas. The house is clean, warm and cozy with lots of things to do in close range. The hostess is the mostess. The owners of this property are very thoughtful, and very attentive. I would recommend this property to everyone!
We were presently surprised to see an older home totally renovated as an upscale property. It was very comfortable and had many neat electronic features which made our stay much more enjoyable. It’s close to downtown COS and to I25 making it easy to come and go quickly.. you want be disappointed with this excellent home!
We have stayed in a lot of VRBO homes over the years and this one is definitely one of our favorites. It was exactly as described, the yard was precious and the outdoor spaces were really well done. Inside it had every thing we needed and more. Kristine was excellent to work with and very attentive to us. We have visited COS many times; we love this neighborhood and know it well so it was perfect for us! We will definitely stay here again in the future.
This home was clean, comfortable and quiet. It was perfect for two married couples. The owners were thoughtful and great helpers since we had never traveled to this area. I recommend it!
This home was perfect for our family of four. There was plenty of space for us to feel like home but quaint enough for us to spend much needed time together. The card and board games were a nice tough for family time! The location was perfect for getting out and about in the area and just minutes from downtown. Communication was some of the best we've ever had and much appreciated for ease of travel. The owners did such a good job making us feel at home away from home. We plan on coming back to Colorado Springs and have no doubt we will stay here again!
We stayed here for a week in July 2022. I have stayed in many vacation rentals over the years and this is definitely in my top three. The HopHay family thought of literally EVERYTHING you could need during a stay here in CO Springs.
Kitchen: It was clean and extremely well stocked. We cooked several meals and there wasn't a single thing we needed that wasn't available. The knives were even sharp!!
Bathrooms: Again, all very clean with towels and paper products provided.
Bedrooms: Spacious, clean, comfy
Indoor living spaces: Everything we needed, clean, comfortable
Outdoor living spaces: There are a wide variety of outdoor spaces that truly double the size of the house.
I am so happy we chose to stay here and would return in a heartbeat. A big thanks to the HopHay family.
