Memorial day stay

Our family came in from 4 states for a family wedding. This home was perfect for all of us. The kitchen had everything we needed & we enjoyed the back deck for several of our meals. Our granddaughter enjoyed the swing set & we all enjoyed the game room. It was a perfect location for doing some site seeing while we were in Colorado. We would definitely recommend this home for a family stay.

Great House Near Garden of the Gods

We had a great stay for our visit to Garden of the Gods, Pikes Peak, and rafting in the Royal Gorge. The house was very well stocked with everything you could need and in a great location. The teens loved the lower level rec room that had air hockey, ping pong, and a large TV.

Love the location!

We loved the location of this home. Felt very safe for our kids and they enjoyed the backyard and the short walk to a park/ playground. The house was very clean and had great space for everyone. The only reason this home is getting 4 stars is because it was uncomfortably hot during the day because the A/C wasn’t working properly.

Great location

Very, very comfortable with a great location. Kitchen had an amazing amount of appliances, cookware and dinnerware. We didn’t use the outdoor patio because our evenings were at a relative’s nearby home and days were filled with local hiking and other activities. We had a problem with the security system but owner remedied our issue.

First trip to CO for our kids

My best friend and I brought our families to CO Springs for the first time and this place was in the most perfect location for everything we did! The house was great for families and had a fenced in backyard with a great play set that the kids spent a lot of time on in the evenings when we grilled and the adults enjoyed a beverage! The house is within 5 minutes from the entrance to Garden of the Gods, and less than 10 minutes to Manitou Springs! The kids really enjoyed seeing mule deer in the mountains behind the fence in the backyard in the evenings!!

Excellent location

The location of the house was great, minutes from everything. Wonderful house with everything you need. The kids loved the ping pong table. The beds were very comfortable. My wife and I have a king size bed but we slept fine in the master queen. I won’t even look for another place to stay, we will try to book this one again when we return to Colorado Springs. Troy and Wendy were very accommodating for all our needs. Thanks again.

Garden of the Gods Wedding

We recently stayed at Wendy's property with our family of 8 adults and two children while in town for our son's wedding which was in the Garden of the Gods, The property was very well furnished and plenty of room and conveniently located to access several sites such as Manitou Springs, Old Colorado City, Garden of the Gods, and Pikes Peak. I would suggest taking the Cog/Train up to Pikes Peak however, the drive up can be a bit stressful and slow. but very much worth the visit. Wendys has the home decorated with several of her prints of the area scenery which were absolute gorgeous. Our two grandchildren very much enjoyed the fenced in yard with its own little playground for them. Although we didnt do any meal preparations, as we were always on the go, the kitchen was well equipment, clean and spacious. I would give the property 6 stars on a scale of 1 to 5. Thank you Wendy for sharing your property will definitely love to come back soon.

Good location--some issues with house

I gave 2 stars for the good location of the home and the fact it is nicely furnished. I took off 3 stars for the rest of the issues we had. The air conditioning was insufficient and sleeping was uncomfortable. The owners left personal items all over which made it hard to feel comfortable. (27 framed family photos, used soap/razor in shower, half eaten food, gift cards/credit cards, grocery lists). The phone rang often and we had to sign for their personal package delivery as well as talk to contractors who stopped by to repair sprinkler system. All in all, it was not relaxing and I would not stay here again.

Great Location

The stay was mostly great! Large home with great space, in a great neighborhood, centrally located to all our activities. However, the hvac system seems to need an upgrade as the south facing rooms were continually hot and required opening windows and using box fans to keep cool at night. This resulted in my niece getting sick and having to miss out on 2 days of activities. The beds weren’t as comfortable as desired as all of them had huge dips in the middle and seemed more than well used. For the price I would request an upgrade to the ac system and beds. Also the jacuzzi clearly has not been used in a very long time as there were large chunks of gunk came out of the jets upon trying to use it. Most likely won’t stay here again unless the beds and hvac are updated. Great communication with the owner/very nice, however my niece getting sick due to the poor ventilation was enough to look elsewhere next time.

Perfect home for a family gathering!

The Mountain Shadows home is nestled in a neighborhood that is great for short walks. Upon arrival, we found the home to be well maintained, comfy, welcoming, clean and fully stocked for our family gathering. Perfectly located, we took lots of day trips to nearby Garden of the Gods, City of Colorado Springs(both old and new) and Manitou Springs. In the evening we played the games provided at the home and held ping pong matches in their large family room. So much fun, we wish we could have stayed longer. Overall our stay was a great experience!
