This unit is described in full detail at Vrbo listing 1074905. Historical These vacation rental apartments are in Jerome Wheeler’s carriage house built in 1888\. A second cousin of Ralph Waldo Emerson, Jerome Byron Wheeler served during the Civil War, surviving to marry Harriet Macy Valentine (whose family founded Macy’s department store) in 1870\. By 1879 he had become the president and a major shareholder of R. H. Macy and Company after the deaths of both its male heirs. In 1882, Wheeler and his wife visited Colorado, seeking relief for Harriet’s severe bronchitis. They visited Manitou Springs, as it was famous for its mineral waters. In 1883, they built a summer home here, naming it ‘Windemere.’ This sat where the Post Office is currently located. Soon, Wheeler began hearing reports of silver strikes in Aspen, and he purchased interests in promising mines. Although his time at New York City's most prosperous department store produced years of record sales and profits, Jerome Wheeler’s ambitions were shifting toward Colorado. Wheeler left his position and sold his shares in Macy’s in 1888. Wheeler became involved in numerous mining ventures in Leadville and Aspen. He organized the Aspen Smelting Company, and built a mountain tramway to bring ore down the mountain to the smelter. He was president of the Croseus Gold Mining and Milling Company, as well as the Rock Hill Consolidated Gold and Silver Mining Company in Leadville. He was a partner in a marble quarry, and was president of the Grand River Coal and Coke Company. Before long, he was phenomenally wealthy. He built two of downtown Aspen's landmarks; the Wheeler Opera House and the Hotel Jerome, putting nearly one million dollars in each. These are both thriving today. He built the first bank in Aspen, as well as a large residence, but never lived in the home. Known as the Wheeler-Stallard House, it currently serves as home to the Aspen Historical Society. All told, he invested nearly $6 million into developing Aspen, and is remembered fondly as an icon there as a result. Jerome Wheeler became a director of the Colorado Midland Railroad when it was organized in 1885, and brought rail connections to both Aspen and Manitou Springs. He and Colorado Springs railroad tycoon James John Hagerman invested over $100,000 in the extension of the Colorado Midland Railroad to the western slope, the first standard gauge railroad to cross the Continental Divide. Some of the rail beds and tunnels for this railroad can still be seen in various places around town and along US-24 west of Manitou Springs. He started the Manitou Mineral Water Company, which was very popular back east and was even served at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City. He invested in the Manitou and Pikes Peak Railway, a cog railway that still transports passengers to the top of Pikes Peak. As he had in Aspen, Wheeler also built the first bank in Manitou Springs, the Wheeler Bank. This yellow brick building sits at the east end of downtown. Downtown sits a triangle of land with the clock donated by Wheeler to the town. His wife had been intrigued by a similar clock in Italy, so he spent $3600 to provide one for Manitou Springs. In 1892, Wheeler became embroiled in the first of a series of lengthy and costly lawsuits over one of his silver mines. The combination of the judgments and the Panic of 1893, resulting in the crash of the value of silver, cost Jerome Wheeler nearly his entire fortune. Wheeler's mining company laid off all its employees. His banks failed and closed for two years, but Wheeler paid his depositors every dollar and they lost nothing. Manitou Springs continued to benefit from Wheeler’s largess, even after his fortunes had dwindled. He contributed $50,000 toward the construction of Manitou Avenue and outfitted a volunteer fire company. In 1913, after a devastating flood, he gave $10,000 to the city for emergency repairs. Jerome Wheeler spent most of his remaining years at Windemere until his death on December 1, 1918. New York. Aspen. Manitou Springs. Jerome Wheeler was successful wherever he went, and he and Harriet certainly could have lived wherever they desired. But ultimately, they chose Manitou Springs as their home. Come to Manitou Springs and see what they discovered. This is a great place to be. History of Windemere Jerome Wheeler’s Windemere estate in Manitou Springs included an elaborate conservatory, this carriage house, billiard rooms and two bowling alleys. Roses for the Cliff House Hotel were grown in the conservatory and placed on guest's pillows each night. After the death of the Wheelers (Harriet died in 1916), the estate was sold off, and the Wheeler residence was demolished for a hotel. The post office was built on the site in 1940. The carriage house was divided into seven apartments over100 years ago. The building fell vacant in the 1980's. We purchased the building in 1993 with the intention of developing it into a bed and breakfast. Ultimately, due to the constraints of time, money, full-time jobs, and kids to raise, the bed and breakfast was never realized. As they say, "Life is what happens to us while we are making other plans." Come see why this property has now reached its highest and best use, over 135 years in the making. We think Jerome Wheeler would be pleased with what has become of his carriage house. ## Property amenities ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby - Snowboarding nearby ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool ### Internet - Available in the apartment: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car recommended - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 4 bathrooms - Bathtub - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Area rugs in room - Smoking not allowed - Note from host: No tobacco or marijuana usage on the premises. ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In the city center - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near a zoo ### Things to do - Tennis - Basketball nearby - Birdwatching nearby - Casino nearby - Ecotours nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Spelunking nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Unit size: 2,100 square feet ## Similar properties ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/25000000/24250000/24246200/24246145/24054187.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Private Mountain Dream Home, Amazing City Views Southwest Colorado Springs - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 100 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-31&endDate=2026-01-01&selected=24246145&PinnedHotelID=24246145&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/19000000/19000000/18993800/18993788/2eafbc60.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Relaxing Colorado Mountain Vacation Home Manitou Springs Historic District - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 363 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-31&endDate=2026-01-01&selected=18993788&PinnedHotelID=18993788&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/28000000/27010000/27003500/27003436/f65d5ed1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Creekside, steps to the Broadmoor, close to Zoo, Seven Falls, hike from house Broadmoor - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 114 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-31&endDate=2026-01-01&selected=27003436&PinnedHotelID=27003436&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/37000000/36370000/36362800/36362713/cb550fef.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Amazing Modern Broadmoor Home , with a hot tub and fire pit and NO cleaning fee!

We had a wonderful romantic getaway at The Carriage House. The suite of rooms was clean and comfortable and the bottle of wine was a nice touch. The grounds are well kept and the view from the walkout balcony is wonderful. There's lots to do and see within walking distance. We will definitely return! ##### Mike H.

Our family had a wonderful weekend stay in Manitou Springs - this historic carriage house has been beautifully renovated. It was spacious and our favorite part was sitting on the deck overlooking the creek and town of Manitou Springs. It couldn't have been more convenient. We will return! ##### Mari-Elena B. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa B. Jul 29, 2018 #### A beautiful home with space and privacy for everyone. We rented all three units for our family and it was a perfect set up. We gathered together for dinners and games downstairs and could retreat to our own beautiful apartments later. The location is perfect! Great shopping, restaurants and attractions are within walking distance or a short drive. The owners are a lovely couple who will take care of any needs you may have or answer any questions. We look forward to going back. ##### Lisa B.

Our family reunion was made even better at your location! We had everything we needed and then some. We had only one issue (the dish tv box went out) and yet you had it fixed on a holiday within a very short period of time! Thanks also for the kids goodies and wine !!! ##### donna w.

Tim and Kris have provided everything one would need. We slept well on the very comfortable bed and loved having coffee on the deck. Tim graciously showed us the bike paths in the area. It was great to be able to walk to shops and restaurants. We would highly recommend the Carriage House for your stay in the Colorado Springs area. ##### Kathleen B.

We spent Christmas in the house and when we arrived, we were surprised to find a Christmas tree, decorated and all, plus cookies for the kids, wine for us and a treat for the dog. We loved the house so much that we booked an extra day. Thank you, Tim and Kris, for making such a magical holiday for us and the kids! ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura B. Oct 11, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Here for a wedding This property is perfect for traveling to Manitou with family or friends. We used all three apartments and were able to meet up in the larger downstairs apartment. Our only disappointment was that we didn’t have more time to hang out on the patio. The bottles of wine as a welcome gift was a nice touch. Kris and Tim are great hosts and Manitou Springs is a special place. We were able to walk to just about everywhere we needed to go. ##### Laura B.
