We loved our stay, absolute serenity nestled into the Black Forest. We enjoyed sitting outside and soaking up the beautiful afternoons and evenings on the covered porch. They thought of everything and tried to prep the house for guests needs. Thank you for sharing your beautiful property!

My husband, high school age daughter and I love our stay here! I can't say enough good things about this beautiful place and wonderful hosts, Michelle and Rick. The apartment is beautiful, clean and homey. It is relaxing and quiet. The tree house is so fun. We enjoyed hanging out by the fire in the evenings and in the the mornings we saw birds and deer right from the patio. Rick and Michelle gave us several great suggestions on things to do and places to eat. We drove over to Pikes Peak Cog railway, Garden of the Gods, Cave of the winds, Manitou Springs and also did a local hike in Black Forest. It feels like you are in the forest yet close to Colorado Springs. I highly recommend a stay here!

We adjusted our dates just so we could stay at Rick and Michelle's place again. We just love it there. They are so friendly and accommodating. And the location couldn't be any better, the Black Forest, just north of Colorado Springs. So away from the crowds, the noise and all the traffic. But just a 10 minute drive back to town. The furnishings are perfect, very comfortable, and room for 4 people easily. We spent much of our time on the front porch covered area. Love the furniture out there and the propane fire pit. Lots of deer, birds and squirrels on the property. It just doesn't get any better!

We were visiting Colorado Springs for our nephews graduation from the Air Force Academy and booked the Apartment in the Pines for a few nights. Everything about our stay was very welcoming, comfortable and cozy. All the details of a well kept, well equipped, and super cozy house made us feel right at home. The location was perfect for all we needed to do and see and the Hosts are wonderful people. We loved Chewy too! I would recommend this place to anyone visiting the area.

Very comfortable, clean and welcoming home.

We were well impressed with the whole experience . The property was really homely and welcoming and very clean. All the amenities were there ready and waiting to use at our disposal. Could not fault the place at all. Would recommend …5*

Nothing like being 10 minutes from Colorado Springs and not having to deal with the traffic, congestion and noise. Our place in the Black Forest was quaint, comfortable, relaxing and enjoyable. Beautiful inside and especially outside. Patio area for the whole family and a propane fire pit. Lovely forested area. You can't go wrong with this vacation rental. This will be our go-to place for future visits to Colorado Springs.

Lovely setting in the Black Forest. Accommodations were wonderful. Comfortable furniture and beds. Nice quiet area. We spent each evening on the lovely patio with the fire pit turned on. Will be our ‘go-to’ place for any future stays in the Colorado Springs area.

We loved the house & property! It was perfect for the three of us. The homeowners were so welcoming, and everything was beautiful. We went to a wedding at Wedgewood Black Forest. Thank you so much!! Lynn

Michelle and Rick went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. They left us gifts for our anniversary and reached out several times to see if we had any questions or recommendations of what to do during our stay. Location was amazing. So close to Colorado springs and there were so many food options close by. The home was super clean just as pictured. The only thing i would add is that the owners do live there on the second floor. we didn’t know that when booking as it was only listed once in the details on VRBO. even with that said we had no issues and can honestly say it was the perfect stay!

My husband and I stayed in this cute and comfortable home during Christmas and had a great time. We went for walks and enjoyed the quiet location. The owners had a welcome gift for us to enjoy and so much thought went into making our stay wonderful. We sat outside by the fire pit or just enjoyed a cup of coffee while watching the birds that frequent the property. There's a fun treehouse you can sleep in, too! The home is located in a wooded area on a large lot with plenty of privacy. You can find fabulous restaurants and shops within 20 minutes. The owners were accommodating, available to answer questions, and willing to make suggestions when needed.

Our family of five stayed at this apartment and fell in love with the cozy space and amazing views. The downstairs space is well decorated and equipped with everything we needed (kitchen, bathroom, and dining areas). We are runners and we enjoyed a trail from the house to quiet back roads for running, biking and hiking. The treehouse is an added feature that our kids had so much fun exploring. The outdoor space is perfect for end of the day happy hour around the fire. The hosts are amazing and were available to answer questions about the area. I highly recommend this gem in the middle of Black Forest.
