Little gem
Great spot on the edge of Garden of the Gods. This is a fully separate unit connected to a main house by a breezeway and inner patio. But you have the full backyard to yourself. I think the pictures are a little misleading but in a good way, meaning there is ton of natural light im the bedroom suite and the pictures feel darker than it is. Hosts are great to deal with and plenty of amenities. Close to a lot of cool sites and things to do. Will stay here again if i have the chamce.

Finding a Treasure so very close to Garden of the Gods
This property is truly a gem. Perfect for my husband and I and our two dogs. I walked every morning to the Siamese Twins stones on a trail within the Garden of the Gods in only 15 minutes. We were easily able to reach all the wonderful sites around Colorado Springs—the Cog Railway, the Air Force Academy, the Olympic Traininng facility, the Olympic skating training, breakfast at the Broadmoor, as well as many more Great Restaurants. Enjoyed this trip especially where we stayed!

Comfortable, Clean & Roomy home in a great location!!
We had a wonderful stay at this property! Walkable distance to Garden of the Gods. It was just my husband and myself, and we had more than enough room in comfortable 1.5 story home. The hot tub and beautiful, shady backyard garden was very enjoyable. I accidentally got a bad sunburn, and asked our host if she had anything in the cupboards to smooth it, and she brought me a huge cutting of one of her aloe vera plants. It was nice having our hosts right next door - we never saw or heard them unless we had questions.

A Walk to the Garden of the Gods
The check-in process worked very smoothly. The home was as it was described. We found we were not very far from the things we wanted to do--a very nice placement. We did contact the owners a couple of times and Luke was very quick to respond.

Restful spot for a getaway
Both the house and garden were peaceful and beautiful. Waking up to the sound of birds singing and a beautiful view of Pike's Peak was delightful. The location of this property to fun shops and cafes as well as an easy walk into Garden of the Gods was perfect. Grocery stores were close by as well. With all that convenience, the house felt tucked away and quiet. Debbie and Luke were warm, relaxed and friendly hosts and gave great recommendations. Debbie even brought over slices of warm freshly baked bread.

Perfect location and lovely hosts!
We had a great stay in Colorado Springs! Our hosts are located a few feet from Garden of the Gods and a 10-15 minute walk from the Siamese Twins. And also just a few minutes away from Manitou Springs and Pikes Peak. With well stocked kitchenette and a large loft bedroom, we had all we needed for our stay. Make sure to check out their amazing restaurant list! We ate at the Sahara, The Loop, Adams Mountain Cafe, and Front Range BBQ. All were very good!

Great location, space, and amenities
Great location. Kitchenette did not dissuade us from cooking. The property was very spacious with an ample room and bathroom. The hosts even lent us mayonnaise and ketchup! Our-three year old daughter loved the movies and toys, and we were within sight of the garden of the gods entrance. We did have a bit less privacy than expected, as only a hallway door separated us from our hosts. However, given it was Christmas, we understood the timing made the scenario unconventional.

About the host

Hosted by Debbie and Luke Ellington

Host profile image
We moved to Colorado after marrying over 40 years ago. We have always enjoyed awesome mountain setting nestled right up against the foothills at the base of Pikes Peak, the deep blue skies and the numerous sunny days we have here. We love hiking and the opportunities are endless here. Skiing 2 hours away. What's not to like!?

Why they chose this property

We moved here after many years of living in the mountains at 8500 ft. We were very choosy about the location of where we would live in the Springs. This home was the perfect location for us. So close to many trails and parks which we love to access. There are lots of fun festivals in Manitou Springs and Old Colorado City besides good restaurants and shops. When we need a mountain fix, we can access them easily from here. This neighborhood has old growth trees, and no two houses are the same. This is not a track home! But it is a very scenic special neighborhood.

What makes this property unique

We love the fact that we can walk up the street and be in Garden of the Gods for awesome hikes and views that we never get tired of. Down the street Amada Fonda has a really nice outdoor creekside dining area for drinks and Mexican food. Or visit the shops, penny arcade, and restaurants and bars in funky Manitou Springs. Drive to the top of 14,000 Pikes Peak in the summer. Or take the Cog Railway to the top. The 5 Star Broadmoor Hotel is 20 minutes away. Besides the great hiking in Garden of the Gods, there is Red Rocks only minutes away. Colorado Springs offers nightlife on Tejon Street, 5 miles away. Or just go 2 miles to Colorado Mountain Brewery. White water raft 2 hours away. Olympic Training Center 20 minutes, Royal Gorge Suspension Bridge 1 hr, Cripple Creek Casinos 50 minutes, Air Force Academy 25 minutes. Warm and dry in summer.
