We enjoyed the space and being outdoors. We took advantage of the deck and fire pit. The view of the lake and the mountains.

We were unaware that there was no air conditioning and that all the windows needed to be opened for cool off the house. Also, it says there is a hot tub- there is no hot tub. There is a small bathroom jacuzzi for one or two small people to use. 3 bedrooms= 6 people. There is an inflatable mattress for a 7th person to sleep on. Outside landscaping needed maintenance. Private lake- only good to look at. No swimming or boating or fishing. All laundry had to be washed and dried before we left, which made for a very hectic morning. I have stayed have several VRBO's, and although the location was peaceful, the mountains are beautiful and the house was spacious and clean, this unfortunately was not one of my favorite VRBO experiences.

This home is in a great location and very comfortable. It was the perfect home away from home to get ready to attend our son’s wedding.

My family and I stayed 4 night at the beginning of June. The house has tons of space, a great view from the deck, nice and cool basement, quiet neighborhood, and has quick access to the highway in between Colorado Springs and Denver. The house has no AC if you plan to stay in the summer, but just opening the windows cools the house and makes it feel great. Overall my family had a great time staying there.

Sun would wake us up around 5:00 am during our stay. Curtains could not block the sunrise. No way to cover the sun from coming in.

Great property with an amazing view! Everything you need for a Colorado trip is here -- location, plenty of room, great basement, wifi, kitchen supplies, spacious bathrooms and more. The house is a little outdated but who cares when you're on vacation. We didn't watch any TV, but if that's your thing there are no sports channels available. Sherrie was very responsive and the folder they put together on recommendations is a great touch! We'll be back...

We had to travel to Colorado from Illinois for a funeral. This house was perfect for our family of 7. Even though we were there for unfortunate circumstances, this house was so beautiful & had such amazing views of the lake & mountains! It was very peaceful. Even though the home does not have AC, we didn't have any problems with the windows open. We also ended up needing to stay 1 more extra night, as we were too exhausted to make the long drive back home. Sherrie was so wonderful & accommodating!! I texted her & she got back to us right away. Thank you for sharing your home!!

The location was perfect as far as attractions within a 30 minute-1 hour radius. The house was well stocked, and the host was outstanding. The few text messages that i sent to her were answered in less than 15 minutes. I highly recommend!!!

The house was great, close to the Highway and stores. Plenty of room for our family of five with amazing views. The wildlife in the neighborhood was great as well, we enjoyed seeing the mule deer around the lake and near the house.

This was a great home for our stay in Monument. The house is spacious across the two levels. Lots of comfortable furniture to lounge on. The fireplace was very nice to have on the snowy, cold days of our stay. The amenities throughout the house were a nice touch.
4.9
Great overall experience. The property was lovely and spacious, easily accommodation 8 people (2 children). It was conveniently located close to the Air Force Academy. My only advice is if you are renting in the winter and have a rental car, upgrade the car to all wheel drive. The roads were a little treacherous after about a 5-6" snowfall.

This house was perfect for us! The views were amazing and the house was clean and beautifully decorated. The pool table and many games kept everyone busy. We were visiting the area because our son was getting married at a venue nearby. The house served our needs perfectly!

Well situated for day trips and a comfortable place to come 'home' to. We had a small issue that was dealt with promptly. Owner communication was spot on.
Also recommend Bellla Panini for their wonderful Italian food!

We traveled from the East and West Coast for a family wedding.
The house is in great proximity to the market, gas stations and restaurants. Close enough to the highway but far enough removed so you don’t hear the traffic. The house was also perfectly situated within close driving distance of activities and sightseeing places. We went to Red rocks amphitheater, Garden of the gods, old Colorado city , the Air Force Academy and numerous locations for hikes. The house is beautifully appointed. Bathrooms with granite tops, jacuzzi hit the spot after exploring the area , rooms decorated with reminders of Colorado wildlife and sports activities, spacious living areas, comfy oversized couches, fully equipped kitchen,granite counters and ample seating .(we never fully figured out how to use the toaster but didn’t burn any bagels LOL), entertainment ready basement, we loved playing pool and enjoyed having breakfast on the upper deck and afternoon birdwatching on the lake from the lower deck. We saw a pair of mule deer feeding in the neighbors yard. Beautiful view of eastern foothills at the base of the Rockies.
The house is not air-conditioned however the interior temperature was never uncomfortable, even with daytime temperatures in the low 80s.
We hope to return in the future.

We enjoyed our visit to Colorado in this home. The house had everything we needed, we didn’t have to go to the store to buy much other than food and snacks. Had lots of fun playing pool. Home owner was quick at responding. Only downfall that I wasn’t aware of is there is no AC but it cooled off every evening and we opened the windows.
4.9
My family had an awesome time at this house. The views are beautiful, worked as a great home base as we explored Colorado Springs. The host was very fast and helpful with communication. The only item I should have read more carefully was the fact there is no AC to cool the home. It was 82 degrees when we got there in the home. The listing says nothing about AC, so I should not have made this assumption. Once the host recommended to open the windows it helped a lot and made it cool enough, especially in the evening for sleeping. The house is huge and very open. We were surprised by the size even with the pictures. We would stay here again.

BEAUTIFUL AREA AND STAY
I'm not criticizing the owner "at all". The place was absolutely beautiful and located in a well located "private" area. Perfectly located near Monument and in between Denver and Colorado Springs. My only gripe is we had bad luck with noise and neighbors even though it was no worse then back home. Construction behind the house that for some reason took all week plus to do a patio beside a small shed. Other neighbors started their day at 7 am sharp every day. Thought the house was more secluded then it was. Overall gorgeous views of the mountains and deer run thru the yard to feed.

We enjoyed our stay very much! Everything was really clean, and the house is very big and spacious for all. We enjoyed all the amenities. Only thing that was a hassle was the parking. The driveway is connected to others driveways and it makes it kinda uncomfortable.
