About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

⭐️Premier location! ⭐️ HIKE into Garden of the Gods right from the house!

The location of this family friendly home is simply perfect! You'll be only minutes from the historic Rockledge Ranch, Old Colorado City, Red Rocks Open Space, Manitou Springs, the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, and Seven Falls. But the real treat is that this beautiful home is only 0.2 mile from a foot/bicycle-only entrance to Garden of the Gods. This means you can avoid the stress of traffic/parking and instead walk right into the Garden. The exceptional location allows you to explore all of Colorado Springs, relax, and spend more time vacationing!

As a guest you'll have full access to the house and its amenities. Relax on the large front deck and enjoy the quiet, friendly neighborhood. Go for an evening stroll to Westmoor Park (0.3 mile away.) Hop in the car and go down the road to the brewery of your choice. Or, our personal favorite, walk up the road into The Garden of the Gods to watch sunset.
Regardless of your activity choice, regardless of the season, you are likely to see other hikers, bicyclists, families, and wildlife out enjoying the great outdoors.

What can you expect, depending on the season?
Spring: 40's - 60's, sunny, and lots of new wildlife. Colorado is well-known for its heavy, Spring snows and baby blue skies. One day it can snow 2 ft. one day and the next day, it can all melt off.
Summer: 70's - 80's, sunny, and everyone (and their dog) is outside. Hikers hit the trails early because by afternoon, loud and intense thunderstorms can build against the mountains.
Fall: 60's - 70's, dipping into the 30's sometimes at night! The chilly nights and warm days are the perfect equation for stunning colors. Coffee shops and breweries are hoppin' and a cozy sweater is essential.
Winter: 20's - 50's, bright blue skies and snowy mountains. Everyone is still outside, but now they are enjoying the crisp air and Winter activities.

Perfect location for family mountain getaway

This property is fantastic ! We had plenty of room for all family members . The playroom was amazing and my grandson loved the toys and tent. Cousins visited one afternoon and the kids had a ball. Plenty of seating and dining spaces. Beds were comfortable and kitchen well stocked. Five stars seems inadequate I’d give it 10!! We will be back!

Comfortable home in great location

We really enjoyed our week at this property. It was in great condition and nicely decorated. The host was very helpful and responsive but respectful of our privacy. The neighborhood is quiet and residential, but close to major roads, conveniences, and sights that we wanted to see (Manitou Springs, Garden of the Gods, etc). Our 16-year-old son is a runner so the local access to the Garden of the Gods trails was great!

Amazing! Will return!

We stayed at this beautiful home while in Colorado to visit family, and it was perfect! There was plenty of room for 5 adults and 2 kids, the kids loved the cowboys and Indians room! Ashley the owner made everything so easy and made sure we had everything we needed! The location is so perfect with being right next to garden of the gods and really anything you wanted to do. When we come back to visit again I would definitely rebook this beautiful home! I would give it 10 stars if I could!

Perfect Stay

This comfortable, easy, spotless house is decorated beautifully with Colorado themes and a fresh look. Ashley thought of everything, from welcoming touches such as a bottle of wine with two glasses laid on the dining room table, to ample supplies, toiletries, and a fully stocked coffee and tea bar. She was a wonderful host, providing us with great information about what was nearby. One of the main hikes in Garden of the Gods is right there, and it is suitable for everyone. A great stay; thank you!

Wonderful property in a fantastic area of town!

We had a blast staying at this VRBO for 5 days with our group! My daughter loved the cowboy and Indians room, and the proximity to Garden of the Gods couldn’t be beat. Ashley was a generous and attentive host, making sure the little amenities were available! The posting did say there is a hot tub, but that was an error as there wasn’t one at the property. It didn’t affect our enjoyment of the property, though!

RE: PERFECT!

Fabulous property! Spotlessly clean and so convenient to everything. Lovely, accommodating, and totally perfect for children. Pack and play, backpack, STROLLER, high chair all provided. The rocking chair in the "Cowboys & Indians" room was very comfortable and well-used. Loved the decor! Gorgeous setting on a dead end street. We LOVED watching the deer roam the neighborhood. The Garden of the Gods is just up the street! The owner is just lovely and easy to work with. We would not hesitate to stay here again. Colorado Springs and this property exceeded our expectations! An amazing setting. Our only regret--we wish we could have stayed longer.

Young families look no further!

If you are an outdoorsy family with young kids then seriously, stop looking and just book this place. We are a family of 3, and we stayed here with our friends who are a family of 4. This house was everything we had hoped it would be, and even closer to Garden of the Gods than we imagined! All the beds felt very comfortable and clean, the living space was perfect after-bedtime chit chat, the boys LOVED the cowboy room and especially the Lincoln Logs. It was very easy to get to, and GoG is literally a 5 minute walk down the street. It was close to plenty of stores and not too far from the commercial areas with tons of restaurants. If you are a family with young kiddos, this is the place for you. We will be back again then next time we're in town! Our host was extremely communicative and we felt very welcome in her house, and we had an AMAZING time.

Pleasant Indeed!

Located minutes away from Garden of the Gods and Old Colorado Springs, while nestled in a sweet neighborhood…Pleasant Valley had everything our family of 8 needed and so much more! The gracious, attentive host has the comfort of her guests in mind, anticipating all that may be needed on a stay away from home. Knowing we had a 2-year old, she provided a pack n’ play, stroller, high chair and backpack carrier. The Western themed bedroom was a huge hit for the two older children. The adults enjoyed the complimentary bottle of wine, coffee/tea bar and well stocked kitchen. The fall decor, comfortable beds, fluffy bath towels all staged in the beautifully decorated, pristine home created an environment for total relaxation. A highlight of our Colorado Springs visit was Pleasant Valley.

The best property yet…

The layout: Three full bedrooms, two full baths, and a converted lounge space with twin beds and a cozy fire place meant my family had ample room to spread out and enjoy our time in CO Springs. The kitchen and breakfast nook allowed for quick morning meals feeding our 3 teenage boys, while the dining table sat all 6 of us for dinners. There is an office space/laundry area, but we didn’t use it. Honestly, the last thing I wanted to think about was doing laundry or working on vacation. Ashley has everything clearly labeled, fully stocked, and provided a wealth of local information and guidance for our trip. The kitchen was stocked with the essentials, to include k-cups, cooking sprays, spices, and condiments. Each room was themed and my mother appreciated the massage feature of the bed in the wilderness room after a day at Monarch Mountain. The location: We were able to watch the NYE fireworks from the porch and didn’t have to deal with crowds. The house is located in an older neighborhood with a lot of new growth/development near by. Stores and restaurants were within a few minutes drive or a 15-20 minute walk. We loved how close we were to Garden of the Gods and wish we’d had more opportunities to explore the trails, but our time flew by. 10/10 would stay again and recommend this property. I’ve stayed in numerous properties in the US and Europe, and this was hands down my favorite.
