Communication with the host was immediate to any response. House was extremely clean, so well stocked and organized! So much room!! We spent hours on the beautiful patio enjoying the view. This home was hard to leave. Thank you for sharing this gem with our family.

This was our first visit to Colorado and I am so happy that we selected this place! Besides being beautiful and in an absolutely beautiful location, the home was so detailed and included everything one would need. The hosts put in a lot of effort with decor and resources. Everything is labeled, toiletries and other helpful items are provided. Check-in and information was easy. The hosts are easy to communicate with and they provide you with everything you need! It was a great stay!

Host was easy to work with and made sure everything was perfect throughout the stay. We particularly enjoyed the swimming pool and the remote, relaxing location. Bedroom and bathroom layout of house is nice too. House was very clean and well maintained.

The views are stunning! Loved the rock formations. Family hiked to Pulpit Rock, swam in the pool for hours and played many games. We have chosen VRBO in the Colorado Springs area for the last 5 years. Each property was unique and we enjoyed the hospitality of each place. But Lana went far above in making us feel welcome. It wasn't just the welcome note, Memorial Day decor, flowers and a plate of cookies, which was more than enough, but she also checked in a couple of times to make sure our accommodations were okay. OH! I forgot the towel animals that delighted us all. If there are ratings for hosting, Dean and Lana are 5 star. Thanks for making our stay memorable.

Our extended family of 10 stayed at Hidden Gem to attend the graduation of our granddaughter from Colorado College. The name fits this property perfectly. The surroundings are spectacular-one of my favorite things was waking up to the gorgeous view of Pikes Peak from the master bedroom. We loved cooking in because the kitchen was so well supplied with everything we needed. We even moved the grill around to the front of the patio so the grilling chef could have the view. The bedrooms and baths were also well supplied. And it was wonderful to be able to pull the cars into the garage when we had a couple of fun thunderstorms. Lana and Dean were extremely welcoming and communicated with us so well. We’re almost sorry that our granddaughter has finished her time at CC because we would love to go back.

This was one of my favorite properties I have ever stayed at. The location was so peaceful with amazing views. They literally have thought of everything. The house is so well stocked with towels, laundry detergent, spices. Communication was excellent both with labeling within the house and with text messages from hosts. It was a perfect long weekend get away.

As the name implies, this hidden gem was close to everything yet felt worlds removed. We stayed mostly for the indoor pool, which was amazing, but also for the views. Everything was in order, easy, no challenges. A delightful experience!

The home was absolutely beautiful! Our kids enjoy swimming in the indoor pool for hours. We sat on the deck and enjoyed the $1 million dollar view for hours. It's close to everything we went to Garden of Gods, Pikes peak, just gorgeous.

The house has amazing views of the mountains and the kids loved the pool. The guys liked hiking the trail to Pulpit Rock from the house and our son loved climbing all over the rocks outside. There where 11 of us and the house was plenty big enough. Only disappointment, the house is not private despite the description. There are lots of neighbors not shown in the pictures. The master bedroom has an all glass shower and I got to watch the neighbor walk by the window while I was showering. The homeowners labeled literally everything making use of equipment & spices very easy. 😆

Each morning we were greeted with a spectacular view from our bedroom of Pikes Peak in the distance and Pulpit Rock Park nearby. A short drive gets to nearby grocery stores and restaurants. The indoor swimming pool is a particular treat and at a comfortable temperature. We and our adult children and grandson all loved it and spent a lot of time there. The heating and cooling are different from what we are used to, but all worked fine once we learned how to operate the controls. The owners kept in contact by text message and were very responsive. We will be scheduling another trip here soon.

The setting is beautiful with expansive views. The house felt like a home, with all kinds of details that made our stay easier (books and toys for kids, comfortable places to sit of the floor and play, extras in the pantry to make cooking and packing for hikes easier, easy to follow directions/signs to make sense of how the house worked, and much more). The indoor pool was great for my daily lap swimming. The location was near major grocery stores, which we appreciated (Costco, Trader Joe's, etc) while still being extremely private and remote. And, importantly, the owners were 100% communicative. They definitely wanted our stay to be enjoyable and perfect, which it was. Super easy and beautiful house to be comfortable in for 6 adults and 3 kids!

This house is everything and more than what is described. I promise you it’s worth every penny. Pictures of the views don’t do justice. Thanks for the great birthday trip.

Immaculate, very well organized, and stocked with everything we needed! We are very picky renters and there was nothing out of place, everything was labeled with instructions, and the entire home was perfectly spotless. We would love to stay here again when we return to Colorado Springs. The home is convenient to Pike's Peak, the Garden of the Gods, and the Royal Gorge. It was secluded yet close to everything. DoorDash was our friend for the week. After long days of exploring we could order and out food was there when we arrived. All the conveniences, non of the congestion. We loved this home. Thanks Lana and Dean!
Regards,
Greg

Family trip
The property fit our needs perfectly. The patio offered a great view of the mountains. It was clean. They had basic pantry items for our use. We had more than enough bath linens for our family of 8. They even presented us with a dozen roses for our 48th wedding anniversary.

Highly Recommended
The home was very clean and nice. Everything was labeled which made it easy to find things. Views were spectacular and we enjoyed our stay very much. The hosts were in touch throughout our trip to make sure all was good and they payed attention to every detail. Our flights arrived early and they were very accommodating and allowed us in early. One of the best VBRO experiences I’ve had.

BUT OH, THE VIEWS!!
Everything about this property, the location and the owners is top notch. The views are so amazing, the community is beautiful as well, and close to everything. One of the absolutely best hosts we've experienced, and we've used VRBO for many, many years. We arrived with 72 degree weather, and a snow storm blew in that night and covered us with about 14 " of snow. The owners came over the morning we were leaving and shoveled the driveway so we could get down the hill and head into Denver. They were amazing hosts. We loved everything about this trip and this stay. We will definitely stay again.

Incredible location and house
A group of 6 childhood friends (now all pushing 40) based out of this property for some hiking and exploration of the local area.
The location was incredible. Gorgeous views off the porch and hiking right out the backyard. And the house itself was one of the most thoughtfully prepared I’ve ever stayed in. Plenty of extra supplies, super organized, clean, and comfortable open space. We all slept great and enjoyed our time in the mountains.

Amazing home with gorgeous views and every comfort
This home was perfect. The location is amazing— private location in the mountains away from other people, but a quick drive to many shops, restaurants, coffee, etc. The beds are very comfortable and the home has many amenities. Our kids loved playing board games and of course, they loved the pool. Definitely recommend this home.

Well appointed and well stocked home
This home was exactly as pictured on VRBO. High on a hill it features great views of Garden of the Gods and Pike’s Peak. We have stayed in a dozen home rentals and this was by far the most well stocked home. Lots of condiments, Keurig coffees, games, towels and other supplies.

The best place I have ever stayed.
Let me start off and say the owners of this property went above and beyond for me. It was my birthday and the had decorations, a cake, cookies, and flowers. The house has amazingviews. The owners have literally thought of any and everything you could possibly need. Not to mention the warm pool INSIDE!! I will definitely rent this again next year. Thank you for making our trip that much more.

A beautiful home in a spectacular location. The owners have thought of absolutely everything you could possibly want or need during your stay. There were 6 of us on a girls trip and it could not have been better.

Amazing Place with Stunning Views
From the time we booked the property to the date we checked out, Lana and Dean were in touch to make sure everything was in order and there were no issues. We received a guide ahead of our trip to learn more about the house and things to do in the area. The views are absolutely stunning and the house is stocked with all of the essentials. We will definitely be coming back for another stay!

Our family couldn't have had a better time on our trip to Colorado Springs and having this wonderful home as our "base" made things that much better.The house itself is beautiful inside and out. The view from both balconies is not to be missed. We tried to catch the sun setting every night (if we weren't out and about). We loved the indoor pool for relaxing (as the temperature wasn't too hot or too cold). Also the hiking from the house can't be overstated. My teenage boys made their way to Pulpit Rock at least 3 times during our stay. The house was also more stocked than any house we've ever rented. There were snacks in the pantry, extra toilet paper, tooth brushes, laundry supplies, trash bags, ziploc bags, Keurig cups, straws... anything that we might have forgotten to bring was waiting there for us upon our arrival.Additionally Lana & Dean were great at communicating from the very moment we booked this home... I couldn't be more pleased with my entire experience. We had such a wonderful time staying at this home. The pictures really can't do it justice. We hope to be able to stay here again. :)

Look no further!
Stop your search because it’s a waste of time. This house is PERFECT!!! I’ve stayed at many rental homes and have never seen one so immaculately clean. The owners are beyond wonderful to work with. Unfortunately, I had a situation that required extra clean up and work for them. I felt horrible but they were incredibly kind. The views are gorgeous, rooms comfortable and location is perfect! I came with friends and can’t wait to come back with family in the future. Thank you so much, Lana and Dean!!
