Memorial Weekend

This house is very family friendly. My 7 month old had plenty of room to crawl around and it was very baby safe. My 5 year old loved how she could go outside on the deck and watch for wildlife and go walking in the woods. Very comfortable stay and beautiful views. Very easy to get to just about anywhere. We would definintly stay here again.

This place should be your first choice

Absolutely loved the house, the view, and the quiet coziness you get for the price. Its nestled near Manitou Springs, Garden of the Gods, The cave settlements, and the Cave tour where you can visit the location, tire yourself out then in less than 10 mins be back at the house to take a nap to recharge. Just be mindful driving through the neighborhood there was a lot of deer roaming in the area.

Would recommend

Great location, great views, easy check in process. We had everything we needed as it relates to pots and pans, seasonings and toiletry items. This is very rare. Only problem we had was assuming the additional rooms included a bed and a pull out couch as I read it. It was enough space but the beds were not comfortable for some. Otherwise would recommend for all of the other great features.

Beautiful Property, Incredible Views

The home was great for the two of us and would be absolutely perfect for large groups. The views are stunning, the hot tub is a fantastic bonus and the garage is great. The bed was comfy, and the couch was great for relaxing. Super easy check in and check out.

We enjoyed the house it was very spacious and plenty of room for our big group. The road is very curvy and the driveway is downhill with 3 vehicles was a bit of a challenge at first but we figured it out. The views from the back deck were beautiful.

Fabulous views

The location has fabulous views and we all loved seeing the wildlife so close up. There were a few things that we felt should have been a little cleaner, but overall, not near as bad as some motels/hotels we have been to and here at least we had plenty of space. My grandkids have already asked me if we can come back!

Great views

Great home for a large family. Loved the deck, hot tub, and open kitchen. We forgot many mountain cabins don’t have air conditioning yet many windows open for fresh breeze. Richard was responsive to our needs. Would have liked a few extra blankets, so make sure and ask early for those to make sure they are on site. Some reported beds were not very comfortable. It was clean. Great location to many activities. Loved the Blue moose Tavern.

Great house for large group

We had a great time on our trip and if you are looking for a solid place to stay with a big group, this is a good option. These are the overall pros and cons of this rental for our group. I find this helpful when reading reviews. :) Pros: - Size of house, great for big groups- Location is great. Just enough of a mountain vibe, but close enough to get to things as well. - Value of rental/price was great. - Comfortable beds. - Two kitchens are great for shared family vacays. - Good amount of bathrooms. - Owner was quick in responding/great communication. - Fantastic views off the deck.- Easy check-in process. Cons: - Not enough bedding for all beds (specifically for use of sleeper sofas) and not a lot of extra towels for a larger group. There is a washer/dryer though, which was definitely a pro. - Upstairs fridge was not working properly (but I believe this is getting fixed after our stay). - Downstairs kitchen unit not stocked with cooking supplies, utensils, etc. - One of the downstairs bedrooms did not have a door. Might not be a big deal to all groups, but would be nice to know for planning. We ended up hanging a blanket lol. Overall, our group really enjoyed this house and it fit our needs. We made some great memories!
