It was nice to stay here because there were two bedrooms so we could have one room and 13 yr old granddaughter have the other. Great location for all of the fun things to do in and around Colorado Springs.

This updated house had everything we needed in it. The house was clean and cozy. Check in and out was easy and John and Beth helped answer questions we had about nearby grocery stores and restaurants. So close to all the places we wanted to visit! Would totally stay here again!

We were fortunate enough to get to spend four months in this house, and we would gladly have stayed another four months! Everything about this property is 5-star: the beds are incredibly comfortable; the kitchen has everything you need; the tv is huge; the dining room is a great gathering spot; the layout is super comfortable. The neighborhood is the best for enjoying all that Old Colorado City offers — it’s a short walk to Bancroft Park, yet it’s very quiet and peaceful at the house. Our dog loved the yard. The hosts are fabulous— very responsive and super pleasant to deal with. There was literally nothing not to love about this house. We can’t imagine staying anywhere else if we come back to the Springs!

Our stay was lovely in Old Colorado Springs. Great location, close to nearly everything. The house is a lovely 2 bedroom 1 great bathroom. Backyard is great for Barbecues. Hopefully we can return to your house the next time we come out.

Our little ShihTzu dog was confused the first night by the familiar command "Go potty" and xeroscaped backyard (no grass), but figured it out by the second go around. Lovely home; will look to stay there again as we had not enough time in Colorado Springs!

My husband and I recently had an awesome 7 night stay at this wonderful quaint home in OCC. The location is great, within minutes and walking distance to stroll the main streets of OCC, visit great restaurants, breweries, fly shops, etc. It's a great hub for day trips into the Mountains, Woodland Park, Cripple Creek, Leadville, Breckenridge, Deckers, etc. Also, minutes to Garden of the Gods, Manitou Springs, The Broadmoor, Pikes Peak, Cheyenne Mtn Zoo and other great attractions in this beautiful area. The hosts, John and Beth, were absolutely the best! There communication was great and really fast. I asked many questions and asked opinions on restaurants, grocery stores, etc. and they were happy to assist. Always very helpful and timely! The home is very, very clean, we felt so right at home! Great kitchen with everything you need for cooking. We absolutely loved the front porch for evening drinks and morning coffee. A very, very quiet neighborhood with locals walking in the mornings and offering a friendly wave and Good Morning! The off street parking is very nice too. The beds were great, with Purple mattresses, we slept well. A wonderful home to stay, we will definately be back, we truly enjoyed the home and highly recommend. Thank you John and Beth for making our getaway awesome! Marty and Debi

This cute house was absolutely perfect in every way! Enjoyed walking to Old Colorado City’s downtown. The outside patio in the back of the house was so relaxing. Quiet little neighborhood. The checkin was without a hitch and each time I reached out to the owners, (before and during) our stay they responded quickly. Would definitely recommend this house!

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay. The house was cute, clean and well stocked. Great location. It was perfect for everything we were doing (within 15 minutes of virtually everything) and a very short walk to so many things in Old Colorado City. It has an awesome front porch. We spent a lot of time enjoying it in the early mornings and evenings. Beth & John communicated well with us while we were there. We would definitely stay there again.

The owners were extremely accommodating & communicated quickly. We loved the sweet street and neighborhood so close to Colorado Avenue and Old Colorado Springs area. Were able to walk to shops and restaurants and the location was 10 to 15 minutes away from all attractions we were visiting. We loved morning coffee on the front porch and the large family room for evening movies. The kitchen was very clean and met our needs. We will consider staying here again!

Great neighborhood! Just a couple of blocks to downtown Old Colorado City with fantastic stores and restaurants. We lucked out and they were having a farmers market - great food and craft vendors. Perfect for going to Pikes Peak and Garden of the Gods. House was clean and unique. Thank you!

The house was perfect for our stay. Nice setup in the house, I had to work one morning and the little area in the kitchen was perfect - quiet and away from the living area and a beautiful mountain view. The house was clean, convenient and nicely appointed, I highly recommend it and the owners were very communicative and even told us we could get in earlier since the house was ready early.

We loved our stay here. Tucked away in a little neighborhood only a few blocks from Old Colorado City, this house was perfect for the four of us. Perfectly appointed kitchen and living areas, comfortable, and just plain charming. This was the final leg of our Colorado trek. Its laid-back vibe was just what we needed to slow down, relax and regroup for our long drive home. Getting tired of restaurants, we barbequed and my wife made brownies. Great memories. Beth and John were great hosts. During our stay, I had a couple of questions and they responded within minutes. If we come back to Colorado Springs, we would definitely return to this great place.

We stayed in this lovely VRBO at the end of March for a couple of days while I visited my brother who lives in Colorado Springs. Then it was off to Keystone for the rest of our Spring Break. This home is absolutely adorable and within walking distance to Old Colorado City's main strip. We walked to The Mason Jar for lunch which was delicious and enjoyed all the shops on our way back to the house. We enjoyed a family dinner in the well-equipped kitchen. Plenty of seating. We enjoyed cocktails in the outside seating area in the backyard. The area/home was quite and free of road traffic. We definitely recommend this home to anyone visiting the area..

House was spacious and comfortable. The only issue we had were a bunch of spiders in the bathroom and one very large (half dollar size) in the living room upon arrival. Otherwise it was great. Nice location, roomy, and convenient. The second morning there we had two deer in the front yard. We would stay here again!

This was a lovely property in a great location. It’s in walking distance from shops and restaurants but feels nestles away in a quaint and quiet neighborhood. The bedding and towels are soft and smell great. Though we didn’t cook much, but the kitchen is very well stocked to make meals. The property is well maintained, and we loved sitting on the front porch. Beth was responsive to my texts and very helpful.

This was a wonderful house just the right size. Had everything needed for cooking. The house was comfortable. We loved the front porch and the walk down to old colorado. The is situated 15-30minutes to attractions. John and Beth are great my husband is electronically challenged so they had to stop by to show him how to work tv. I appreciated that. Overall I would rate house a 10. I would recommend it to anyone.
