I loved this place, totally felt like a home away from home. It was nicely updated, my friend could not stop talking about how everything you could possibly need was provided, and the beds were very comfy! Christina was a great communicator, and gave us parking options because we showed up during Territory Days over Memorial. Seems like all of Colorado Springs came to the celebration. My friend and I are over 60, and this place is situated easily within walking distance of Old Colorado City. Thanks again Christina, I would definitely love to stay here again!

A Gem! 10/10!

4 adult family members stayed in this home for a wedding weekend. We had wonderful time! The house is absolutely charming, clean and comfortable. The character of this home puts a smile on your face. The backyard was private and had plenty of relaxing shade. We took many walks throughout the neighborhood and to the nearby shopping/eating area. We felt safe. Bonus that it is pet friendly. The fence is very secure and the yard is perfect for doggies. 10/10!!
