It's ideal for both work and relaxation, offering ample room to enjoy movies, play pool, or explore the outdoors with family. The Space: Immerse yourself in nature at our lower-level retreat located next to a regional park, complete with trails, playing fields, and a scenic lake and gazebo. Just north of Colorado Springs in the tranquil Black Forest area, our home offers a perfect mix of nature and convenience to attractions and hiking. Our lux space comes with a private driveway on the west side for easy parking, a private entrance with an electronic keypad, and a stunning private patio with a pond and waterfall. Inside, the open design connects a fully-equipped kitchen with a living area that includes a fireplace, pool table, gaming table, and even a slot machine. The space also features a gym, making it ideal for both relaxation and entertainment. Accommodating up to 8 guests comfortably, the home has three bedrooms—two with queen beds, one with a double—and a sofa bed, all with high-quality linens.

Guest Access: Guest will have private access to the entire bottom unit. Access to the entire lower level with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a living room, kitchen, laundry, home gym equipment, grill and outdoor seating area. There is 2600 square feet of open floor plan. The Neighborhood: The north end of Colorado Springs is known for its larger, custom homes, quiet neighborhoods and private lifestyles. Less urban than other areas of Colorado Springs, the sense of "escape" here is palpable. The views of the mountains tend to be unobstructed. There are forests here. Access to outdoor recreation is superb, yet the modern conveniences abound too. Shopping and quality restaurants are relatively close. Gyms, grocery stores, outlets, food and drink are all within an approximate 5 - 10 minute drive. The area is also defined, somewhat, by its proximity to the Air Force Academy. Guests will frequently notice light training planes flying overhead—the nation's next Airmen learning their craft. Some of the most well-known area attractions are all within an approximate 30 minute drive—Pikes Peak, Manitou Springs, Garden of the Gods, Old Colorado City, Downtown, the COS Airport—all are easily accessible via main roadways and Interstate 25. With suburban appeal and easy access to everything that makes Colorado Springs great, this might be your perfect vacation rental locale.

The property was very nice however it was a little awkward with the host family living above us. The rental was the basement of the property. There was no air conditioning, which was listed on rental, however it was still too warm for us even with the fans. There was quite a bit of noise from above s well. We enjoyed the views but don't think I would stay in another property with the host living above. ##### Beckie D.

It is located in an established, quiet neighborhood not far from restaurants and shopping. It was really cool to see the wildlife, including foxes, from the living room window while the teenagers enjoyed playing pool. Only suggestion is a motion sensor light by the garage when parking at night (there is a motion sensor one on the side steps leading down to the entry door). I would definitely stay here again when in Colorado Springs. ##### Susan F. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 9, 2021 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Time with Family The property was nice. There were a few items that were unfinished in the construction (carpet not connecting to the tile in the bathroom) but nothing that was terribly unsightly. Unfortunately, when we arrived, the use of the bathroom was necessary after a long trip only to find that the toilet had been used by someone prior to us and had not been flushed thus, the bathroom smelled of urine. This gave concern that other things might not have been cleaned appropriately. Also, due to the snow and ice, one of my guests fell on the ice. Because there is a leak in the gutter over the last step by the patio, water collects and then freezes causing a dangerous situation. Overall, our stay was pleasant and if we were to come back in the months when the weather was pleasant, we would certainly stay again.

Nov 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Extended stay due to weather The property is beautiful. The homeowner lives upstairs with his family. The basement we stayed in was huge & equipped with everything we needed, except a can opener. I texted Paul, the owner, & he had a manual one, he provided.It snowed everyday for 4 days straight. Paul was gracious enough to shovel snow from the steps for a path to my car. The entrance to the property is not handicap accessible, so this would not be a property I would choose if I had mobility challenges. The lights on the driveway were not working at night. Had it not been for the lights on our cell phones, this would have been a challenge getting from our car to the side of the property, when the motion lights did come on. There is no a/c & did feel really warm inside, however, there are plenty of fans to keep comfortable. The snow was beautiful, and we enjoyed playing pool & board games, & cooking our meals, & making wonderful memories! I would advise anyone to carry a battery charger with you, in the event your vehicle won’t start! My car was not accustomed to being out in the cold, & one morning, it wouldn’t start. Thankfully, the battery charger fixed the problem! Another thing, take enough medication with you, in the event you have to stay because of road closures! Luckily, Walmart & Walgreens filled our prescriptions & the property was available for extra days we needed to stay & thankful for online grocery ordering & delivery! Overall a wonderful stay in beautiful Monument/Colorado Springs! ##### Elaine E. Stayed 10 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tonya R.

Didnt expect the property to be the basement of a residential home, with a family living upstairs during our stay. Other than a few occasions of stomping come from upstairs they were very quiet and didnt disturb us one bit.

The wild animals (fox) got into a bag and then it was littered in the back yard. We made multiple calls to get it cleaned up but we checked in on Friday and it was Saturday late afternoon before someone came. We weren't able to use the back deck as a result due to the animal traffic. Even had someone's dog digging in the trash. ##### Dr Linda W. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Phillip R. Jan 16, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Home/ Comfortable Furniture- nice space for 3 groups This is a beautiful home located well for travel both to and from the Springs as well as Denver and the surrounding area. It worked out great for my group of 5 adults and 2 small children (below the age of 3). We were here for 5 days/ 4 nights during Christmas week. Everything was pretty clean and tidy. There is a vast assortment of movie disks as well as a few games on site. The beds are comfortable, the rooms spacious. It was a challenge coming into this space and learning where everything is located (pots/pans/pot-holders/ etc), and it was even more of a challenge figuring out all of the light switches as there are several dimming, 3-way switches. However, that all worked itself out over the stay. Believe the reviews when it states there is no cell phone reception inside. Where some phone plans allow you to step out onto the covered patio to get reception, 4 out of the 5 adults in my group could not use their phones unless they went down closer to the street. I am an older male (not quite as tech savvy) and this really disrupted my communication with local family and friends. We had to use a variety of apps and rely on the wifi in order to communicate and coordinate. I am stating the above because it kept me from contacting the host by phone or text for the following. I could have just knocked on their door each time, but I did not want to be that guest. This leads to my next commentary that would have made our stay more comfortable. The heaters work too well. We were hot, and adjusting the temp seemed to make no difference. It would be nice to know what areas the two thermostats control as well as reduce overall heat program. There was no dish washing detergent, so we used the liquid soap and had to hand wash all our dishes and pans. The carpeted kitchen scared us during food prep, but we managed. Navigating the side of the house with a series of steps both up and down was precarious at best in the dark with ice. Especially leaving after the intense blast of back porch lighting as you move into shadow. Added lighting would be much safer. The back porch light sensor prevented us from being able to sit in the evening and view the stars from this lovely sitting area as well as it setting off a chime inside every time you move. A timer or switch= nice add-on. Window treatments for the greatroom windows would be a nice addition for privacy. I would stay again and recommend- all of the above would've just made our stay that much better. ##### Phillip R. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kevin S.

Needs a few more dishes for families and definitely needs outdoor lights to help navigate in the dark. ##### Roxanna P. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melissa L.

Jul 4, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Very nice, improvement needed For the price we paid, you expect exceptional. The details matter even the small ones. Very nice property, meet every need we had, nice location. Bedrooms were great, TV was fabulous, little kitchen area was very functional. IMPROVEMENT NEEDS: Inconsistent address listing on vrbo led us to believe we were more remote when we were not. Main bathroom toilet paper holder broken. Main bathroom shower wasn’t clear how to operate, should proactively have instructions. Inconsistent details on checkout vrbo says 10, guest book says 11am. Vrbo listing was not clear this was basement only, misleading expectations. Need a way to get air circulation in main sitting area, no way to open window. Bedrooms were fine for air circulation. TV in one bed room would not connect to wireless. Updated picture needed for workout area, picture on listing misleading. ##### Chris H. Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maria R.

The property is beautiful and was spotless upon arrival. Located in a nice neighborhood only a couple miles from town. You won’t regret staying here! ##### Jake D.
