Excellent Host & Location
Megan is an excellent host. Very quick and clear communication. The location is superb - walk to Garden of The Gods, see deer in the front yard, and walk to a live music venue. The place is very cozy and clean with all amenities and great toiletries. The beds are very comfortable and the pillows are like clouds. This place lives up to the positive reviews.

Walk Into Garden of the Gods
This house was very clean. Communication with the host was easy and pleasant. The home had some recent updates and the host did simple nice gestures such as food items in the cupboard and a bottle of wine in the refrigerator. The best feature of this house is the fact that you can walk down the dead end street into The Garden of the Gods. This was a very special thing to do early in the morning and in the evening for sunrise and sunset. We thought the pictures of the house and especially the covered patio were misleading and not an accurate presentation. From the pictures online, the description and the cost paid, we were expecting a higher quality home.

Great home for family get-together!
I chose this house because of the perfect location (4 blocks from the Garden of the Gods) and for the bedroom locations which allowed space for everyone to gather yet have their privacy. The kitchen had everything you needed to cook PLUS snacks such as water in the frig, popcorn, candy, marshmallows and graham crackers (for the fire pit). Nice touches all around, and Megan was very quick to respond to any questions. If you like to sleep in, you'll definitely want the downstairs bedroom as the morning light shines in through the high windows in the upstairs bedrooms. Short walk to the Buffalo Bicycle Lodge for music and both Manitou Springs and Old Colorado Springs were fun to visit. (There is a great bus system for Manitou Springs so you don't have to find parking.) Would definitely come here again!

great location wonderful property
We spent 4 nights with my dog and several family and friends at this property. It worked perfectly for what we needed! The kitchen was very well appointed with all necessary spices and appliances. The batrooms were functional and attractive, the bedding was comfortable, and the living spaces were comfortable and welcoming. I especially loved the turntable and vinyl albums. The location was amazing as well; near the downtown Manitou Springs and Colorado City areas. I would stay here again!

Excellent VRBO Home!
We stayed for five nights in this lovely home, centrally located with quick, easy access to the Garden of the Gods, Manitou Springs, and Pikes Peak. The house was very comfortable and spacious. Megan is an excellent host and provided a well-stocked and clean rental home. The modern architecture of the home is very appealing. The street the house is on is ideal for quiet, relaxing walks and takes you right into Garden of the Gods (a nice, 7-minute walk). This is an excellent VRBO rental, and we highly recommend it!

Amazing
The house was everything advertised. An accessible walkout balcony from either upstairs bedroom and a nice seating patio downstairs with a gas grill and fire pit. Easy five minute walk to a Garden of the Gods trail (climbing on the rock formations was a favorite for the kids and it’s FREE)! Easy access to everything you want to visit. Nearby horse stables come by the front with all the daily tours. Kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms were all very clean and stocked. Megan was GREAT at communicating quickly any time we had a question! Check in was a breeze! I would highly recommend this house if you are visiting the area!!!

Garden of the Gods
The house was clean and well stocked with all the usual shampoo, soap, etc and things I consider extra and very nice like sunscreen. The kitchen was well stocked. The location was an easy walk to Garden of the Gods and a short drive from Manitou (Pikes Peak and hiking). This was my first VRBO experience and the owner was very helpful and responsive to my questions.

Great location and property
This property was perfect for our family of 6. Located on a quiet street with easy access to Garden of the Gods, Pile’s Peak, and Air Force Academy. House had everything we needed for our stay except laundry, but there was a laundromat 5 minutes away. Great communication with owner and no issues during our stay. Would do it again!

Property was great for our vacation to visit family. Well-supplied kitchen, comfortable beds, a nice living room, fantastic shower heads all helped to make this place perfect for us this week. Also enjoyed being able to walk to the Garden of the Gods from the house. Would definitely do this place again!

Great home for short visit
This home is very welcoming! Spur of the moment trip in late October, but Megan was very accommodating and easy to communicate with. The home was very clean and comfortable with so many little touches to make it homey and included a lot of personal items that travelers can easily forget. The only negative is that there is no access to a washer and dryer for longer stays, but my experience for a 2 night stay was excellent. 5 stars!

Perfect
Our family stayed here during USAFA Parents’ Weekend. The beds were comfortable so our Doolie was able to get much needed rest. The kitchen had everything we needed to provide him with wholesome, home cooked meals. The neighborhood was quiet and he was able to get in some casual runs. Conveniently located, this property fit the bill perfectly for what we needed. Management was extremely easy to work with and accommodated our requests. Recommend 100%!

Great Choice for Colorado Springs
Let me start by saying this was probably the cleanest home I have ever been in. The kitchen and bathrooms were spotless. That's a big +++ from my perspective. I have stayed at a couple dozen properties over the years during our travels and this home is without question in my top three for overall attention to detail by the owner. The kitchen was very nicely stocked and all of the cookware and dishes were organized and in the proper quantities. I highly recommend this property for your family. The mid-century modern feel was cool and all of the other furniture and beds were in good condition and comfortable. It was in a good central location to all of the sites and activities that we were planning for our trip, so everyone was pleased and happy with our choice. Thank you for sharing your home with our family.
