Other Things to Note
** Have your camera ready for a glimpse of our local critters, for it is common to see bear, mountain lion, bobcat, deer, fox, and other wildlife roaming through town or in the yard. Please don’t pet or feed them though, as they are wild creators and it is dangerous and illegal and will result in stiff fines and penalties. Wildlife fed by humans become dependent on that food and will cause damage to property and to humans and will have to be destroyed. Please enjoy them from a distance. There are trash cans provided for trash inside. Smells do attract them, so please be safe and keep these locked up, and don’t leave food in the car. Bears have been found to break car windows to get at it, the bears also seem to know the garbage man’s pick-up schedule and route!
** Just 15 min. from Colorado Springs and 10 min. from Manitou Springs or Woodland Park are numerous other area attractions, like Pikes Peak, the North pole (Santa’s Workshop), Crystal Falls, Manitou Springs Incline, Rocky Mountain Dinosaur Resource Center, Cave of the Winds, and Garden of the Gods to name a few. We are close to many other activities, including shopping, restaurants, swimming, fishing, hiking, and other activities in the Winter which include downhill or cross-country skiing, or hockey and ice skating on the frozen lake.
Speed Limit
Residential areas in Chipita Park/Cascade and Green Mountain Falls are highly populated in the summer. Please observe the 20-mph speed limit on all residential roads. Most children think of Green Mountain Falls as one big playground and are sometimes unaware of traffic. Please be aware of them.
Parking
Plenty of parking room is provided in the area on the West side of the property in the gravel. Please don’t park in the yard. If you park in the area across from the house near the stream, you will be ticketed by the city.
Extras
Extra blankets are in each room, sheets for the futon, and cleaning supplies are above the washer and dryer. Extra towels are in the bathrooms. Extra toilet paper is under each bathroom sink. Dish soap is next to the sink and a dishwasher soap is under the sink. A broom is next to the fridge, and the vacuum is in the bedroom. We do have two cots available upon request. Also, for the chef in each of us, the kitchen has enough table settings for 8, and the kitchen is stocked with fry/ sauce pans, coffee pot and supplies, waffle maker, pizza pan, spaghetti pan, indoor hamburger grill, and spices for a variety of recipes to enjoy some fun home cooked meals. If you need anything else, just let me know.

We loved the house and the location. The home was clean and they provided a pack n play as well as high chair which saved us so much room in the car. Plenty of room for our family of 5 and you can’t beat the location. Walking distance from a few great places to eat and so close to lots of great attractions. Would love to come back again!

Loved the property! Town was beautuful! Access to hikes right out the door. Fishing in a pond in short walking distance. Creek right across the road. Outside space to play. Very close to colorado springs and very close to Pikes Peak. Some notes: have to pay for wifi. There is no where to throw trash bags out. Great space. Actually very cozy!!! My large family lived the stay. Will stay here again!!

Exactly what we were looking for for our grandsons who love to fish!

It was easy to get to. There was myself, my husband and our adult daughter. We chose this location because my husband currently is experiencing difficulty in walking and we could not climb stairs. It is close to the lake and gazebo. Very quiet. One evening 3 or 4 deer jumped the fence to our neighbor's front yard and feasted on green grass! Plenty of space for a family of 8 as advertised.

We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. Quiet and peaceful with visiting deer in the yard.

A cute cottage with everything we needed. The property managers were easy to communicate with. We especially liked the location: close to the lake, playground, Blue Moose Tavern and the Pantry. Would stay here again.

Great place and location, very relaxing. Wifi was not the best. Had to go outside to make phone calls. I feel like that was because of the location. Everything was as described and very up to date, with the exception of the couch. It’s time for the owners to buy a new couch.

We would definitely stay again! My grandma actually lived in this town 65 years ago. She now lives in Colorado Springs. And she drove up to meet us there to have breakfast at the pantry!

We had 4 couples stay in town as well. They were jealous of our place. Plenty of space and cozy. There’s a washer and drier. It’s a magical little town. Everyone is so friendly and warm. The views are incredible. We even saw a deer in the yard.

This cottage was perfect for our weekend getaway. The kids enjoyed the park across the street and walking to The Pantry for breakfast was ideal. The kids also enjoyed all the fun games and cards at the cottage as well. We never got around to cooking but the kitchen had everything needed for that.

Cozy Lakeside Cottage provided us with the serenity we were looking for! The amenities provided were just what any travelers would need for an extended stay! The cottage is located close to Colorado Springs and nearby attractions. We visited the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, Cave of the Winds, Garden of the Gods, Old Colorado City and Woodland Park. Green Mountain Falls has dining and souvenir shops of their own. The cottage is literally just a few steps away from a most peaceful stream and a pond with beautiful views of the mountains!

Scenic vacation
We had an absolutely wonderful time. Place was clean and everything worked as it should. The people in town were very friendly. Traffic in the area was absolutely terrible, but probably due to the Fourth of July Weekend. The little town of Green Mountain Falls had people everywhere. Even with that we had an Awesome stay. I would highly recommend staying here.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Lakeside Cottage. The property was clean, comfortable and in the perfect setting. We ate breakfast at The Pantry (a short walk from the cottage) - delicious food. We also hiked the Thomas Trail which was a short distance from the cottage. It was a bit of a trek but well worth it. The cottage is in a great location- near the popular attractions. I highly recommend the Lakeside Cottage.
