Great place to stay

We stayed 3 nights and this VRBO was close to downtown shopping and the Pikes Peak train. It was very clean and plenty of room for 9 of us. We want to come back sometime in the future and this will be our place of choice for staying.

Awesome Location, Historic Home

Very pleased with the location, especially if you're taking the train to Pikes Peak, hiking Barr Trail or climbing Manitou Incline. It's a couple blocks from each. Clean, comfortable and great front porch and back patio. 10 min walk to downtown Manitou.

Wonderful home with a great location

We had a wonderful stay here. The house is lovely with lots of room plus a great front porch and a very private back patio. You can walk to some really great trails and of course the Incline. We will definitely stay here again! Thanks

Girls hiking trip

We loved the location and the property was great. The management was extremely communicative as well! The only thing that would have been nice to know (although it wouldn’t have affected our decision to book) was that it was $20/person/night more expensive for any guests above 6 guests. But we loved the property and would definitely stay again!

Great time at the foot of the Incline!

The property was clean and as advertised! Had a little issue with check in as I forgot the message on how to check in came through iTrip and not through VRBO but that was on me. Location could not be beat. Parking is excellent in a tough area to find a spot.

All of the stars are for its great location to all of the points of interest listed in the description. The photos are not an accurate picture of the property. The carpet needs to be replaced and the furnishings are sparse and dated. The kitchen does have two coffee pots but that is all that can be said. There are 2 bedrooms on the first floor and up to five people can share the bathroom. Floor 3 has one master suite, the second bedroom has a bath attached but no counter space because it is too small. It is well over priced for what you receive but with a little attention and maintenance it could love up to its photos.

Beautiful home & Great Location

Family vacation with our adult children. The house was spacious and clean. We loved that the home was near the Barr Trailhead, the Manitou Incline and the Cog Train to Pikes Peak. The home was also within walking distance to the main street for shopping and dining. Also close to other attractions such as The Garden of the Gods state park. We highly recommend this house and would stay here again.

Manitou Springs Retreat

This house is just steps away from the Manitou Incline and the Pikes Peak Train. We enjoyed having enough room to spread out as well as two lovely porches to sit and enjoy the cool weather. We did not need all 4 car parking spaces but that is certainly a luxury as Manitou Parking is hard to come by. Definitely a place I would book again if coming to this area. Thank you!

Manitou Springs charm

Great location, near Cog Railway, the incline and Barr trail. Would be great in the warmer weather, when one could enjoy the outdoor attractions, along with relaxing on the front porch. Also liked that we could walk down to the center of Manitou Springs, which offers many shops and restaurants, along with the children’s arcade. The house was nicely equipped. Gas grill had to be lite with lighter, and could have used some potholders. Having the electric fireplace in the master bedroom was an extra bonus especially during our February stay. Great stay! House definitely has some charm. Thank you for helping our family make great memories!

Nicely updated, parking a plus

We are friends who travel together each year and appreciate having our own bedrooms and bathrooms. This house has plenty of room for everyone. The photos are accurate of all areas. We enjoyed wine on the patio and sitting on the front porch watching people go by since the house is one block from the Cog Railway and Manitou Incline although we also heard the very early morning hikers going by. It was a quick walk when we went on the railway. Having dedicated off-street parking is a real bonus in Manitou Springs so we could come and go easily. Although we didn't take it, we regularly saw the #33 bus going between town and the railway. There are stairs but if you don't mind that, this is a comfortable place and well appointed.
