This is a spacious home in a stunning setting. The views are spectacular, especially from the tower rooms. We loved the deck and the front porch. There are many beautiful details in the house, such as unique doors and lovely woodwork. We love that there is such a variety of things to do nearby. Everything was clean. The accessibility gets an A+ Nancy was quick to respond to every question and request.
Here are some things that need improvement: The dining room table seats 8 adults, too small for a home that sleeps 12. The two showers upstairs only dribbled water. The floors need to be refinished. One of the downstairs bathrooms needs a door. We found the house poorly lit and had trouble reading or doing a puzzle with the inadequate light. Directions for the A-V system would be helpful.
House was beautiful and as described. A lot of nice touches to make you feel at home. Kitchen and bathrooms alerted fully stocked so we did not need to worry about things like toilet paper and paper towels. Wish we could have stayed longer!

The house
Overall, this was a nice place, but on a couple night the house to hot. the guest had to sleep on the floor to keep cool. the water didn't come on upstairs bathroom. The mattress cover was very dirty. We left some product on the kitchen count that can have. The house is on a beautiful place to see and visit. Love seeing Colorado!
Our family of 10 had a lovely stay at the property. There was more than enough room for the 10 of us to spread out an enjoy our stay. Nancy was quick to answer all of our questions, and their family had a great story!
The house is absolutely lovely! Each room feels like a lot of thought and effort went into making the home comfortable and unique, and it felt like every time we opened a door or turned a corner we found a new space to explore. The kitchen is well stocked (huge fridge, which is perfect for 8 adults who like to cook), and the deck has some incredible mountain views. The owners Nancy live next door and were very helpful and welcoming. We’ll definitely be back!
Spacious well loved home with a well equipped kitchen and plenty of room for everyone. Amazing views and wildlife. Owners were wonderful to deal with. Loved having our family and hosting an early Thanksgiving and Christmas. Special time and place
After not seeing some of these ladies, for over 30 years, fancy pants was the perfect place to get together for some relaxation and fun. There was plenty of room for all of us. There was also several sitting areas to choose from. We were able to go on hikes around the house and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. The kitchen is very well stocked so we were able to cook meals and eat in, and also found restaurants not too far away to eat out. This house definitely has lots of fun character.
We all loved the stay there versus staying at a local hotel. This was my first experience at a VRBO and we would do it again. Well decorated house and comfortable beds and furniture. Loved the outdoor patio in the evenings. Definitely recommend.
Our family enjoyed our stay in Woodland Park at Fancy Pants Manor. Nancy was very helpful and communicated well with us. We were all adults, a party of 7, and had lots of space to spread out. The deck was perfect for enjoying the beautiful sunsets, and coffee in the morning.
We had a great time in this huge mountain house. Well equipped with everything. Owner lives nextdoor so very available. We would have appreciated some more written instructions on how things worked, what was required from us on check out, etc.
We had a family get together with 10 adults, and there was plenty of space for everyone with room to spare. The location was perfect, out in the country but within 15 minutes of stores and restaurants in Woodland Park. All the activities in the Colorado Springs area was only half an hour away. The hosts live on the property and were very helpful. If you need a place for a large group, don't hesitate, this place is great!
As everyone stated this cabin not only offers the best panoramic view of the Pikes Peak but also has everything you need to enjoy your vacation. The property is huge with ample space, cozy rooms, library, 360 degree tower room view of the mountains, heated mattress, big patios, grill, decks and much more. But what makes the difference is the hostility and kind behavior of the owner- Nancy!
She is just amazing in addressing all our questions and concerns. Our cars got stuck in the middle of a sudden snow storm and they helped us to get to the cabin safely. Offered us multiple rides back and forth to get our stuff from our cars. Can’t thank them enough for the help they offered us at night we reached Colorado. I would also mention about other neighbors who offered help as well.
If you have a large family and want a cabin in Colorado Springs/ Woodland Park, CO, then look no further. This is the cabin you want to be in!
This place was amazing, 360 views from the tower, perfect for families with kids or the kid in all of us. Nice quiet location with all the amenities needed for a great vacation. We truly enjoyed our stay at fancy pants manor!
House is amazing, the owners were awesome, and we highly recommend! It’s outside of Colorado Springs but super easy to get to all of the attractions, and the mountain setting is amazing! We were just four adults, but can see where a larger family would have a wonderful time, with cool bedrooms for all! I made it a point to read my book in ALL of the cozy sitting areas. Wonderful to come home to after a full day of exploring the area! Can’t say enough about this property! Thank you for sharing your home with us!
Beautiful property just outside Woodland Park with easy access to I 24. And local hiking Easily sleeps 12 or more. Would be great for a reunion getaway. Host Nancy was readily available to answer questions. Very relaxing weekend. Thank you.
I highly recommend Fancy Pants Manor and owner Nancy Medlock when considering your next vacation to the Colorado Springs area.
The home is in Woodland Park, only a short 30 minutes from Colorado Springs, AND WORTH THE DISTANCE/DRIVE!
We had a large family vacation, with 4 families getting together for a 6-day trip. The home is HUGE, comfortable, and provided us everything we needed to have a successful vacation. A large kitchen, with all cooking supplies to save money and eat at home. The bedrooms were large, comfortable, and most had connected bathrooms.
The view is INCREDIBLE! You step out the door and are immediately hypnotized by the beauty of Pikes Peak, staring directly at you. Large patios gave you the space, peace, and quiet to really take in the beauty that the property provided on all sides.
The home has several living areas, comfy couches, clean, and spacious.
The owner, Ms. Nancy Medlock was incredible to work with. Her communication was prompt, friendly, and accommodating.
I plan on returning to Fancy Pants Manor next summer, and that's saying a lot, as I travel often, and I'm very critical of the places I stay and spend my money and time on. This vacation was exceptional, and it really started and ended with this home.
We loved our time there. House was charming. Plenty of movies in their library if wanted.
Fishing was fantastic at North Catamount Reservoir(trailhead was 7 minutes from the front door.) The 1 day we fished, each of us caught 15-20 trout a piece on white Rooster Tails, Mepps, Panther Martins, gold spoons, and the Flies recommended by the South Platte Fly shop in Woodland Park.
We loved seeing the mule deer around the house each morning and evening. Turkeys were in the area too calling each other! We also saw 3 Elk!! A trip to Buena Vista was BEAUTIFUL! Garden of the God's, Glen Erie Castle, and Focus on the Family in Colorado Springs were all winners. So much to do, so little time.
Be aware of the altitude. A couple of us felt off during the week. We drank extra water. Though for some, I think the altitude brought on decreased appetite and periodic headaches.
Great stay and relatively secluded location. A definite winner!
This property absolutely exceeded our expectations. The owner was very responsive and the house is decorated beautifully and is so warm and inviting. We had more than enough room for the whole family. The beauty of the snow covered mountains was unbelievable! We loved the mule deer family that came to the front porch to visit every day. I would definitely stay here again.
The home is beautiful with multiple open spaces that facilitated our gathering of people coming from various places. Kitchen is very well stocked so it made it easy to cook everything on site. Location is cozy in the mountains but close for easy access to Woodland Park. Our group hopes to return in the future!
Nancy's property was perfect for our large group - plenty of space for everyone. The location was gorgeous although I recommend having AWD or 4WD if visiting in the winter. You could see Pike's Peak out the front and more mountains in the back. The property is on a large piece of land and it was very peaceful. The county/city did keep the roads plowed and well-maintained, which was much appreciated. The kitchen was well stocked and we cooked most dinners at home while there. The bathrooms were clean and also well-stocked with towels, toilet paper, soap, and shampoo. Nancy herself was a great host - very responsive and even gave us inside tips on events going on while we were there. I couldn't recommend her place more and we're hoping to be able to visit again during a different season!
Worked perfectly for our three generation family gathering including handicapped grandfather. House is unique and homey and was wonderfully decorated for Christmas.
Everything about the property and our stay exceeded our expectations!

Hosted by Nancy Medlock
Hello, We are Gary and Nancy Medlock. After years of raising children and almost empty nesters, we are renting out our home. We've always loved vacationing and taking our own brood all over the country but also loved returning home. We'd like to share both of those sentiments with you, the sense of being at home while also getting to explore some place new. We hope you enjoy our home and make new memories with your family. So come, kick off your boots, stay awhile, and remember: ya'll come back now, ya hear.
