Beautiful home!

This home was absolutely perfect for what we needed! Our daughter got married at a nearby venue, so we just needed a nice roomy place for our family to sleep and hang out for the weekend. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable! The living room and dining room were cozy and inviting. The kitchen was so roomy with a nice long countertop - we needed to make a little bit of food, so that was really helpful. We all agreed it made the weekend so much more fun to have a beautiful home away from home!

Very nice and clean house. Minor problem of poor Wifi as the password listed, "5starsplease!", was not recognized by the network. The house initially had a mild stale smell but cleared with leaving a few doors open. I would recommend this property to friends or family.

Amazing Colorado Trip

The house was exactly as "promised." The beds were comfortable and most importantly you could control the temperature of the house on your own which is a HUGE feature that isn't often allowed. The bathrooms all had amenities in them (shampoo, conditioner and body wash) which was also a great perk. There were plenty of restaurants close by and downtown was a short 20 minute drive away. I would highly recommend this property for anyone who wants to stay in a calm, serene neighborhood that isn't right on top of the chaos of Pike's Peak. Pike's Peak and Manitou Springs were a bit longer drive at around 30-40 minutes but again, worth it for the peaceful location.

Peaceful retreat!

Thank you for the welcoming home! It was a peaceful location with quiet neighbors and no traffic noise. Your cleaning crew is amazing. It smelled so good when we walked in and the cleanliness was A+ upon arrival. We appreciated all the extra things that made the stay just perfect: coffee bar with a keurig plus a standard coffee brewer, nice towels, comfy beds with lots of pillows, couch blankets, stocked kitchen, bath amenities, bathtub and rain shower we all loved!! That's just to name a few! So glad we tried your restaurant recommendation for Jarrito Loco. The enchiladas & homemade sauces were fantastic and service was great. Can’t end this review without sharing the attention to detail by Renjoy/Kaitlyn throughout our stay. We were provided with thorough communication at booking, checkin, and upon leaving. Hope to visit your home again if it’s available!

Perfect rental for our family of four’s week long stay! House has a wonderful layout and had everything we needed. Lots of attention to detail. I grew up in Colorado Springs and know the area well. This house is a great “landing spot” to explore the natural beauty of Colorado Springs while also having nearby fun activities for kids.
