Jun 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great little place Was in town and needed a place to rest during a business trip. This was perfect for what I needed and was a cute little place to hang out. Loved it. ##### Kourtney B. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### A & V T. Oct 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great weekend stay at the Love Shack! My husband and I stayed at the Love Shack for the weekend. We went for the Manitou Incline, the Pikes Peak Cog Railway, and the great town of Manitou Springs. The Love Shack has a great location to all three of these places. The Manitou Springs bus shuttle stops right outside and it takes you straight to the PP Cog Railway/ Incline entrance. The Love Shack is a perfect and comfortable place for a couple. The property owner/ manager was very communicative and accommodating. We will definitely stay at the Love Shack again the next time we are in Manitou Springs. ##### A & V T. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Judy P. Sep 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Secluded From my initial booking to post holiday checkout, my host Christopher, was exceptionally responsive. As for the property, what wasn't to love! Easy to locate, warmly decorated, immaculately clean, and well equipped with all the necessary conveniences, even coffee and paper towels! The property is quiet, private and secluded, but is located in a SUPER convenient location. It is less than a 10 minute drive to Manitou Cliff Dwellings, Garden of the Gods, Red Rock Open Space, Pikes Peak Cog Rail and Manitou Incline. Thus, you can enjoy hiking and visiting sites without wasting hours of your vacation driving to destinations. For your evening enjoyment, this rental is about a 2 or 3 minute walk to the charming Downtown of Manitou Springs. Here's where you will find shopping, dining, an old fashioned penny arcade and street performers. This rental is a Winner in terms of host responsiveness, cleanliness and location and value. ##### Judy P. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer K.
