About this property

Adorable Artsy Small House in Prime Location for Solo Travelers or Couples

Short Term Vacation Rental Permit Number: A-STRP-24-0724.
My ideal guests are couples or solo travelers with excellent reviews. This is Not a guesthouse, there are No owners living upstairs or downstairs and you don't have to enter through an alley. This is a historic, quirky house with a throwback feel. This cozy and private place is 124 years old; it's on a wide and quiet street lined with trees. It's in a great location: 4 min. from downtown, 3 min. from Old Colorado City, and 6 min. from Manitou. It's where you want to be to visit the main attractions in Colorado Springs.
There's a fan and a window AC in the bedroom; a window AC in the living room, a fan in the dining room, a ceiling fan in the kitchen, and a mini fan in the bathroom. There's over-the-air TV (antenna), Netflix, WiFi, table games, and VHS tapes to watch, and a Wii with games, among some other things.
The kitchen has everything that you need to make yourself at home, including a gas stove. There's a full size washer and dryer and laundry detergent.

Dogs are allowed and they love the fenced in backyard. Humans love it as well, especially when the weather is nice. There's a hammock, a hanging chair, a fountain, and flowers.
You can bring a maximum of 2 dogs. When you book this house, enter the number of adults (1 or 2) and check the box that says "I am traveling with pets." Vrbo will add a fee of $40 for 1 or 2 dogs for the whole stay.

This Little House was built in 1899 and it is considered a miner's house. It's in Old Colorado City, a historic and quiet neighborhood with a lot of character.
The neighborhood is very desirable because of its charm and prime location.
Fun fact: a house in this neighborhood was chosen for the 2017 movie "Our souls at night" with Jane Fonda and Robert Redford. The house is three blocks away from here on 12th and Pikes Peak (a green house in the corner).

Quiet, clean, and quirky

We were only here for a quick one night stay and were not able to take full advantage of all this property has to offer. It's a great place, quirky in a good way, and we would definitely stay again!

A Little Slice of Heaven

Everything in the description of this property, and all the current reviews are exactly what we found. We were so pleased with the neighborhood, and the yard is beautiful (even though we were there in winter). It is easily apparent that a lot of loving care has been put into the home. From the time we first walked into the front door we knew we had made a good decision. It felt like stepping into a very tasteful eclectic art gallery! House was very clean, kitchen had everything we needed and more, and the bed and sofa were both very comfortable. The fenced yard was perfect for our two dogs, and we really appreciate that Andrea didn't care they were large breeds. So many places put a weight limit on pets, it was nice to find someone who knows just because a dog is large doesn't mean it is not well-behaved. Andrea was very accommodating when we had to cut our stay short for personal reasons. The decor in the home is amazing. We love an eclectic style and this house is full of wonderful and thoughtful artistic pieces. We loved everything about it and will definitely stay again given the opportunity. Highly recommended. One of the best places we have ever stayed!

Just What We Needed

It’s so clear that this space is loved, full of memories. We had a comfortable weekend away, close to restaurants, easy to get food delivered, 15 minutes from Manitou springs. Record player Wii and VHS tapes! That we loved watching :) thank you and hope we can stay again soon.

Small Gem in Quiet Neighborhood

Cozy and quaint just as described. My husband and I loved the artsy setting and comfortable surroundings. The little treats and welcome note left for us was a nice surprise.Our dog enjoyed the convenience of the fenced in backyard and we were sorry the weather did not warm up enough to spend time out there. I cook when we travel and the kitchen worked well for me. The neighborhood was quiet during the day as well as at night. Definitely a place we would stay again.
