Location is key when Visiting your Air Force Academy cadet or the Olympic museum, Pikes Peak, Garden of the Gods, the Cheyenne Zoo or zipping up to Denver for a game or concert. But, comfort is key, too.... and you'll have King Tempur-pedic beds to make sure you are well rested & ready for your adventure. Trailheads with breathtaking views are just a 3 minute walk down our cul de sac street. Downtown COS and visitor attractions are just 15-20 min south, Castle Rock outlet stores are just 25 minutes north and Denver airport is an easy 55 minute commute. You may find something cheaper... but nothing more comfortable.
This well appointed lower level of our home has a 3rd bedroom available (just let us know if you need to reserve it) and the roomy over-sized sectional couch can comfortably sleep 2 more tall adults, if needed. Every door is 36'' wide so maneuvering thru' the walk-out basement apartment is easy. An oversized walk-in shower and double vanity make getting ready easy-peasy and the kitchenette makes it easy to eat in, or at the private outdoor seating area, if you prefer. Your secluded PRIVATE entrance in this beautiful and safe neighborhood is accessed via a 4 foot wide sidewalk, parking is to the side in our driveway.
This guest suite has just been built out and is pristine. It has been decorated with your comfort in mind, with 1st class appointments and a nod to our USAF. Some of it may seem over-the top, but we hope our guests will want to make this their "go-to" when visiting COS again.
Being just across the street from the USAF Academy, you can see it and enjoy the flyovers, and Pikes Peak is something to behold!
WHAT IS THERE TO DO WHEN YOU GET TO THE SPRINGS ?
Trails with stunning views of Pikes Peak and the Front Range are just a 3 minute walk down our street. Other hiking and mountain biking trails are easily accessible, as well. Most tourist attractions are just 15-20 minutes down the road: US Olympic and Paralympic Museum, the Training Center, Manitou Springs & Old Colorado City, Pikes Peak Cog Railway & Scenic Highway, Manitou Cliff Dwellings, The Incline, Broadmoor, Garden of the Gods, Cheyenne Mountain Zoo (the highest elevation zoo in N. America) and some really terrific dining, downtown. (We are "foodies" so we can recommend the best of Colorado Springs' dining opportunities).
