Back home again
We stayed last year and when the opportunity came to return for another visit with son and family, there was no question where we stayed. Cathleen provides the most comfortable home away from home and no worries if you forgot something. We enjoyed the great weather this week, the antics of " Chip and Dale" (resident chipmunks seen morning and night), the grey fox who strolled by, and thank goodness, not the neighborhood bear that visited the day before. You'll find the beds very comfortable and warm blankets for all. Granddaughter enjoyed play yard and sandbox. Thanks again for welcoming us "home".

Sad we had to leave
Cathleen made our stay one that felt like a home away from home. The property itself was amazing. The master bedroom was so big the whole family hung out in there a lot of the time. We had chipmunks that made daily rounds on the property every morning while we enjoyed our coffee. The property was far enough away from touristy towns like Colorado springs but still close enough for a short commute to town for groceries or a local bite to eat. There is a little shop just down the street that I highly recommend. Cathleen came to visit us and gave us some helpful pointers about things to do around town and places to eat. We were sad to leave.

Lovely setting for quiet time and MANY activities within a 45 mile radius.
We stayed for a week in June 2023, The cabin was comfortable inside and out. It is set in a great natural setting. The altimeter app on my phone quoted 8000ft +/-. The owners seem to run a rock quarry a 1/4 mile down the mountain, we experienced no industrial noise at all during our week. We explored the area, the Gold Mine in Cripple Creek, white water rafting in Canon City, The Garden of the gods, Pikes Peak, and visiting the Focus on the Family headquarters (which has a free Adventures in Odyssey playground) were highlights. The cabin is not perfect, neither is my house. I say this so expectations are appropriate, not to put down the cabin (or my house). The owner has left meals for arriving guests in the past, this was not done for us, I include this to warn future guests not to expect, let this be a pleasant surprise. I am sure the owner has a life that can be demanding and may not be able to include this gratuity for each visitor. We did arrive to a half gallon of ice cream, fixings, and a basket of "movie night treats". We are grateful for the ice cream and treats. The cabin was a great place to stay and we had a great time. I encourage anyone to visit. P.S. Colorado state law prohibits retailers from giving out shopping bags, byob. Or the teller told a lie?

Wonderful Cabin
Cathleen was so thoughtful. She left us homemade chicken soup so we didn’t have to cook when we arrived. The cabin was very clean warm and inviting. There were deer and fox that we saw many times. The furniture was comfortable. We had everything we needed. I would definitely go back if given the opportunity!

We have a very active 3 year old and the cabin was well suited to accommodate our family. The hosts are very kind by having a fresh pot of chili waiting for us. The kitchen and rest of the cabin is well stocked.

Excellent communication before and during our stay. House was clean, comfortable, had everything we needed, felt like home when we walked in. Nice to have met Cathleen and Sarah. They responded to requests quickly and effectively. We spent two wonderful weeks in a lovely home in a beautiful area. Great location for our day trips to Cripple Creek, Colorado Spring, Manitou Springs, Pikes Peak, Guffey, Woodland Park (if you like BBQ try Peak View BBQ), and so much more. Cathleen's generosity and care makes her an exception host.

This hard-to-impress is impressed!
Cathleen knows how to run a vacation rental! From people who've owned our own, we expect a lot. Well, Cathleen exceeded our expectations. The home was very clean, which we appreciate immensely! No cobwebs, no dead bugs or dust bunnies in the corners. All good. And she left us fresh produce to enjoy while we were there! The place is away from other homes so you feel like you have your own little piece of the forest to watch in the evenings. We will definitely stay again.

This is by far the best rental we've ever had. It has everything you can imagine and much more. The owners go about and beyond! When we arrived there were fixing for ice cream Sundays/banana splits! Tons of games and movies for the kids! This beautiful home is spacious, clean and private! It's close to many tourists attractions. Our family absolutely loved it! We definitely plan on returning! Thank you so much for making our stay fantastic!
