Fantastic property in a breathtaking location

We stayed here for a work trip for about a week. The house is beautiful, in great condition. It's next to the trailhead for the Manitou incline- we didn't climb, but it's something we all want to come back for now that we've seen it. It was really easy to access downtown Colorado Springs and the surrounding areas. Parking was easy. The main room was amazing, complete with a fireplace. The hosts were great- we had questions and they always responded immediately. We'll definitely be back!

Manitou Springs charm

Great location, near Cog Railway, the incline and Barr trail. Would be great in the warmer weather, when one could enjoy the outdoor attractions, along with relaxing on the front porch. Also liked that we could walk down to the center of Manitou Springs, which offers many shops and restaurants, along with the children’s arcade. The house was nicely equipped. Gas grill had to be lite with lighter, and could have used some potholders. Having the electric fireplace in the master bedroom was an extra bonus especially during our February stay. Great stay! House definitely has some charm. Thank you for helping our family make great memories!

Awesome Location, Historic Home

Very pleased with the location, especially if you're taking the train to Pikes Peak, hiking Barr Trail or climbing Manitou Incline. It's a couple blocks from each. Clean, comfortable and great front porch and back patio. 10 min walk to downtown Manitou.

Nicely updated, parking a plus

We are friends who travel together each year and appreciate having our own bedrooms and bathrooms. This house has plenty of room for everyone. The photos are accurate of all areas. We enjoyed wine on the patio and sitting on the front porch watching people go by since the house is one block from the Cog Railway and Manitou Incline although we also heard the very early morning hikers going by. It was a quick walk when we went on the railway. Having dedicated off-street parking is a real bonus in Manitou Springs so we could come and go easily. Although we didn't take it, we regularly saw the #33 bus going between town and the railway. There are stairs but if you don't mind that, this is a comfortable place and well appointed.

Girls hiking trip

We loved the location and the property was great. The management was extremely communicative as well! The only thing that would have been nice to know (although it wouldn’t have affected our decision to book) was that it was $20/person/night more expensive for any guests above 6 guests. But we loved the property and would definitely stay again!

Manitou Springs Retreat

This house is just steps away from the Manitou Incline and the Pikes Peak Train. We enjoyed having enough room to spread out as well as two lovely porches to sit and enjoy the cool weather. We did not need all 4 car parking spaces but that is certainly a luxury as Manitou Parking is hard to come by. Definitely a place I would book again if coming to this area. Thank you!

Great time at the foot of the Incline!

The property was clean and as advertised! Had a little issue with check in as I forgot the message on how to check in came through iTrip and not through VRBO but that was on me. Location could not be beat. Parking is excellent in a tough area to find a spot.
