Nearby you will also find the recreational areas of Pikes Peak and all of the attractions of Manitou Springs and Colorado Springs.

Wonderful Place to Stay

I would highly recommend staying at Miles from Anything, In the Middle of Everything. Andy is a great host who really wants his guests to enjoy their stay and makes sure you have everything you need. The house was well stocked with things in the kitchen, bathroom, and everything else. I can’t say enough good about Andy.

Colorado Springs Family Vacation

Staying at this beautiful cabin was amazing. Our entire family loved hanging out or coming home to this peaceful cabin. There were deer, turkeys, squirrels, and chipmunks seen daily. The home was stocked with everything you could possibly need - from the kitchen, laundry room, bathrooms, and bedrooms. Andy, the host, was quick to respond to any questions we had before, during, and after the stay. When we return to Colorado Springs, we will, without a doubt, stay here.

Spectacular Vacation

The cabin was absolutely gorgeous and the view of Pikes Peak was amazing. Little touches the owners thought of made it that much better. We loved being away from the towns and in the quiet hills. We would definitely stay here again.

Marvelous Matterhorn Meadows

In all reality, Matterhorn Meadows is what you would expect from a high quality VRBO in the mountains; the host, the property, the views, the location, the wildlife, the abundance of attractions within an hours drive were all phenomenal! If you are looking to stay in this area, this is the place for you!

Definite WOW factor!!

This property is located in a beautiful area, full of pine trees, with deer, squirrels, and plenty of birds that visit daily. The house felt more like a home away from home, rather than just a place to stay. It is fully stocked with everything you need for a week long vacation like we took. You only need to bring food to feed your family, everything else is provided, including pots and pans, plenty of dishes, shampoo and conditioners, towels, washer and dryer, board games, binoculars and even a telescope. Pikes Peak is visible from inside the house and the deck! The owner even provided bird food. I will definitely stay here again on our next Colorado vacation!!

Wonderful family trip

Fantastic place to stay! Everything was wonderful down to the smallest detail. Beautiful house, beautiful view and great location. It was everything we could have asked for and more. Great access to anything you could want to do. We rode horses, explored caves, rafted on the Arkansas River and visited the Royal Gorge and more. We made some wonderful memories and wouldn't hesitate to go back.

Great location, incredible view of Pikes Peak, great host

Great location for day trips to Pikes Peak & Garden of the Gods, Gold Belt Scenic Tour, Royal Gorge, Mt. Princeton Hot Springs and Spa. Great sunset view of Pikes Peak and gorgeous sun rises too! We had a full moon rising over Pikes Peak to top our trip off! And Natasha (the deer) was there to meet us when we arrived and was there to tell us goodbye. Great host, great place~

Cabin in the mountains

What a gorgeous cabin! Beautifully remodeled, with large windows that captured the perfect view of the mountain peak. It was the quiet getaway my husband and I were looking for. The cabin was warm for the chilly nights, and the kitchen was filled with everything we needed. Not to mention spotless. We will definitely return.

A peaceful get away

We loved our stay here! The cabin was clean and had everything we needed, including a well stocked kitchen, full laundry, plenty of towels, ( not always the case with other rentals! ) and the king bed was very comfortable. We enjoyed the view of Pike’s Peak from the living room and deck, and the stars at night are incredible! The are many places to hike, and we really enjoyed the Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument just a short distance away. We loved the peace and quiet, the wildlife, and the gorgeous scenery, and we hope to be back!

Oh my snow!

House was great and had pretty much everything we needed for our stay. Coming to Colorado I had the expectation of snow but wasn’t prepared for three feet on our first night! Communication was great with the Moores and they did their best to get us squared away before and during our trip. Unfortunately the snow impacted our plans but we are already talking about coming back in the summer for a redo and hope the property is available. If you’re looking to book this place you can’t go wrong.

Wonderful vacation

Our stay in Florissant was one of the most relaxing vacations we've had. Andy Moore was a wonderful host -- he communicated with us several times to be sure we had everything we needed. His home was super clean and had all the items needed for our stay. It was close to grocery stores and interesting tourist attractions that our son and grandson enjoyed. We wish we could have stayed longer. The place was just as beautiful the pictures on the website. You will be very happy if you choose to stay at Andy's home.

Beautiful!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Matterhorn Meadows. The description is spot on and the cabin is very clean and well appointed. It's a great mix of "cabin in the woods" but with all of the modern conveniences (and then some) that you could want. We are frequent VRBO renters, and the owners go far and above the typical hosts by providing many staple items. We highly recommend Matterhorn Meadows for your next trip to the mountains!

Great for Families

We loved the property from the moment we pulled up. Set away from the road and very quiet with a few neighbors that weren’t too close. The house was very spacious with plenty of room and bathrooms for everyone. Very well stocked with everything you think you might need. Andy was super easy to communicate with and answered any questions we had. Easy enough to get to Colorado Springs for the day and get back to relax.
