About this property

The Historic Blue Bird Cottage

Enjoy your stay at The Blue Bird Cottage in Colorado Springs. This home was constructed in 1891 and offers an old-world theme throughout. It is centrally located just minutes from downtown, Garden of the Gods and Ute Pass. I have added a flower garden for enjoyment in the Summer and sleds furnished for fun in the snow in the Winter. Umbrellas available for walks in the rain. Pets are welcome. There is a $75 pet fee applied. We ask that the pet is not left in the home alone. Also, prior to checkout, we ask that all pet waste is disposed of in the outside toter located off of the alley.

Your stay will be just like a home away from home with stocked kitchen utensils, coffees, teas, fresh linens, towels and so much more. The back deck is welcoming and has extra lighting for nights out on the deck. Easy access to the rear of the property if you want to park in the back off the alley.

Handicapped accessible. There are metal ramps that can be placed over the front stairs for wheelchair access to the home. Please request if needed.
Access the entire home which includes a Sunroom, parking on the street in front of the home, living room areas, 2 bathrooms, (one upper and one on main level), three bedrooms, (2 upstairs and one on main level), laundry room, (main level), back and front yard. Covered parking in the rear for up to two cars if needed, dining area and stocked kitchen fit for the culinarian.

We are just a phone call away for any questions or needs. We live and work just minutes away. Rita and Ken.

You will love this quiet historic neighborhood with all its amenities. Walking distance to a variety of restaurants and a brewery at The Roswell. The guidebook will assist with nearby venues that are on, "must-see" status.

Rental bikes are also at The Roswell. The bus stop is close by or simply park your car in front of the house. Parking available directly in front of the home and covered parking is offered in the rear of the home via alley for up to two cars if needed.

Main doors are with coded entry.
Quiet after 9pm. Smoking is allowed outside only. Please use and clean the provided ash tray. You may park in the front of the home/back yard and to the side of the apartment complex. Please avoid parking in front of neighboring houses. We want the neighbors to have easy access to their homes. Be courteous of the surrounding neighbors and keep music and noise to a minimum. $75.00 charge for pets. We require that pet is never left in the home alone and that the pet is house broken. Please remove all pet waste and place it in the tote found off of the alley prior to your departure.

Beautiful home, convenient to everything
Our group of four friends gathered to celebrate a bachelorette weekend in this beautiful home. The owner was so kind and thoughtful. She stocked the home with coffee and everything one would need in the kitchen. There were plenty of towels and a washer and dryer. The beds were super comfy and the backyard was lovely. We will definitely stay here again.
