This property was perfect for my husband and I with our Border Collie. The house was very clean and smartly decorated. The in-floor heating and thick walls, meant we didn't have to run the heater much at all. The nieghborhood was quiet and perfect for taking our dog for a walk. We loved everything about our stay and hope to be able to stay there again.
Lovely place to stay and escape the crowds. This property was very close to the trailhead for hikes into the mountains or a short stroll to the lake and businesses near it.
Property was indeed pristine inside and out. Total serenity on the patio enjoying the beautiful scenery and flowers. Inside was so clean and furnished well. Wonderful four nights stay. Granddaughter lives in same town, so definitely my friend and I will stay again.
comfortable bedding, well equipped kitchen, well designed space had everything we needed. The lake and bike trail closeby were great for cycling and kayaking. away

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The property was beautiful, well stocked and the owners were very responsive and accommodating! We will definitely recommend to friends/family and hope to get back ourselves to this hidden gem!
Enjoyed our space in Palmer for access down into Colorado Springs area. House was in great shape and even when hot outside, was cool and comfortable. Bed was great and enjoyed wildlife in the yard almost every day.
The marmot cabin was adorable and in a great location with a view - it is in a neighborhood with a lot of dogs barking. It wasn't ideal for our baby to sleep due to lack of AC and darkness, but would be perfect for just my husband and I!
Home was warm and inviting. Very comfortable and clean.

About the host
Hosted by Alyce McElhoes
A custom home builder for 30 years. This was a refreshing project that was so small and simple it was fun to build and create a small retreat just for two. It was an acre of land that overlooks the quaint town of Palmer Lake that boasts some amazing restaurants and bars. This little gem sits at the base of the famous Palmer Lake Star.
Why they chose this property
If you want to relax and get away from it all in a small private bungalow and enjoy new, clean home with all the modern amenities current with the trends. Get away to the National Forest or walk to town to visit the new train bridge, or get an ice cream cone at a local shop.
