Stay was great. Host accommodating when washer quit working. Seen lots of deer in the mornings. This Airbnb has a lot of potential and the host is steady in working on it.

Very nice stay. Easy to get to and get around. Be careful with the driveway since it’s unpaved, but plenty of parking nearby and it’s very clear in the description. Great stay!

Great location and conveniently located near all the essentials. Mountain Mama down the road has all kinds of natural food/supplements. Definitely recommend parking on the street rather than the driveway. It is STEEP and uneven and my SUV struggled to climb it. Other than that, the place was nice for a week long stay.

Overall, it was an amazing trip! I would definitely recommend this spot for people who are wanting a cute trip for just the girls or even a couples trip! My friends and I loved the central location spot where we were able to travel to anything we wanted to do within 20 minutes! Definitely would recommend!

Kristin was one of the best hosts I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. She was extremely helpful, responded very quickly, helped me navigate a payment issue with Airbnb in a calm and patient manner, and was really fun to communicate with.
Her space was perfect as I navigated the loss of my mother, the whole reason for my stay. Her home is warm and inviting and quiet and has everything you need.
The location is really amazing and places you close to major arteries between Denver and Colorado Springs and all the nature you can handle.
FYI, if it’s has snowed, I highly recommend that you have a 4x4 or AWD vehicle. Her driveway isn’t too steep or long but it would be tricky to navigate with ice or deep snow with the right vehicle.
Thanks for providing an awesome place!!!

Highly recommend. We had a water pipe burst in our house and with very little advance they were able to offer us the escape we needed from our disaster WITH our pets. Not only was the place well kept and cozy, Kristin was very responsive and awesome. These other negative reviews stating the driveway is steep… just drive up, you’ll be fine.

It is a well located place, there are many things to do around, Kristins is a very good hostess she was always answering our doubts, it is a little confused how to get there the first time but after that everything is fine, also just for consideration it is a steep climb and it is not paved if you can go up without the need for a vehicle to be 4x4 but if it is good to consider it, from there in more everything is very beautiful you feel as if you were at home!

Kristin’s place was great! Centrally located to a lot of stuff. She also was responsive and stopped by to make sure we had everything. Great place for a pup too.

What a charming little property! Cozy, quaint and had everything I needed; they accepted pets, had a washer & dryer and a tub - these are a few of my favorite things!! And host Kristin was ON IT; I had an unusually late request for booking and had actually cxld another airbnb because they weren’t responding. Kristin answered within 5 minutes. I will definitely definitely book this property again..

Kristin was very responsive and helpful. Check in was super easy. The cabin looks exactly like the pictures. The location was very pretty and quiet. When I come back to Colorado Springs, I will definitely try to stay here again.
