We found this house when our original rental house turned out to not exist (yes VRBO listed a house that doesn't exist). Joanne literally saved our trip and was so understanding and helpful. The home was beautiful and had all of the amenities we needed to be comfortable. The house is full of beautiful antiques. The kitchen is modern and I enjoyed cooking in it. Any time we needed something, Joanne and her husband, John, were quick to help. I absolutely adore Joanne and consider her to be an angel that literally saved us. I can't wait to go back and stay there again, I miss it already.

Awesome property, with killer location. If you want to be right in the heart of Manitou, and close to pikes peak / Barr trail/ penny arcade. This is a top spot. Super clean and new kitchen appliances.

We stayed in the Garden level of this gorgeous historic home very conveniently located to downtown Manitou, it is just minutes to shops, coffee, and restaurants. The remodel was amazing. All of the character of a house of that era was preserved-the stone walls, wood work, and windows. And yet it was very modern with a kitchen that included granite countertop, a copper sink, a large island with an amazing gas stove, and built in microwave and oven. There an attractive butler’s pantry. The kitchen was pretty well stocked. The master bedroom was larg with a walk in closet space. The second bedroom also had a large walk-in closet space. Both en-suite bathrooms were very beautiful and modern. (There is also a half bath in the living space.) The unit had some type of air exchange unit so the house never had the odor you might expect from a house of this age. We really loved the washer/dryer unit because it was creatively hidden behind built in bookshelves. Oh, and the floors were gorgeous—not sure what they were treated with but polished concrete with a great design. We also liked having an outdoor space (table, grill The reason I scored cleanliness so low had to do with an issue with a cleaner getting sick, but when we arrived the host was there working on the issue. She followed up with us the next morning to be sure everything was finally taken care of. Another thing we appreciated was the info the host sent ahead of time about things to do, adjusting to high altitudes, etc.
