Summary: I truly can’t say enough about how amazing this property was. This was my family’s first time visiting Colorado Springs and we went back and forth between staying in a hotel downtown and renting a house. I’m sooo thankful we chose the house! It’s in a perfect location, very close to Garden of the Gods and Manitou Springs as well as Colorado Springs. We had tons of room for all of us to relax (it was me, my husband, our four kids and my mom). We enjoyed coffee on the patio every morning and watched a sweet family of deer trot back and forth right in front of us. We relaxed after long days exploring the beautiful areas around the town by playing cornhole each evening. The views of the mountains and the city down below were just breathtaking. Joan was amazing with her communication leading up to the trip and while we were there. Bryan gave us tour of the observatory that wowed our kids (and us!). If you’re contemplating renting this property, just go for it - you will not be disappointed!! We just got home and already can’t wait to go back again.
