    The house is cute as can be. My wife loved the garden. My kids loved the chickens. I enjoyed the eggs every morning, the mountains (always) and the fact that my family loves it so. The listing says it'll sleep 5, so we brought 5. Next, I think I'd keep it the crew to 2 or 3 though. Many thanks to the owner and her keen hospitality...we hope to see and rent from you again.

    Cute little house and such a beautiful location. Very clean and well maintained. Beautiful landscaping. Felt like a little secluded cottage in the Mountains. Perfect for our weekend get away. A very quiet and peaceful location.

    This place was perfect! It was just me who stayed the night, but in the evening, we had a fun outdoor dinner party for my birthday! Amanda was so nice and accommodating. She was so helpful along the way. Beautiful property and area of town. You can tell she works hard to make it perfect. Check out that clawgoot tub! And the beds were so comfy. And all of the trinkets are so cute and perfect for space! Perfect if you like cute spaces and plants. And chickens! Loved being near the chickens. Overall, great birthday weekend and getaway! Cant wait to stay here again!

    We chose this property because we love the mountain town feel, but this home specifically was the first time I’ve ever felt “at home” on a trip! Amanda is amazing and available. She answered any questions we had immediately and was even gave suggestions on things to do close by because she is so knowledgeable on what’s in the area. My kids loved seeing the chickens, humming birds and deer every day. The view of the mountain behind the house is stunning! The house was so clean, and I am usually so picky with my kids being young, but it was spotless. I had everything I needed to make meals, plenty of towels and bedding and it was so nice to be able to do laundry. My husband and I enjoyed having our coffee out on the deck in the quiet mornings. The home is decorated so intentionally and we just felt so cozy and safe in this home! If you are visiting Colorado Springs area and want to stay in a place where you actually feel like you’re in the mountains but close to town, stay at this house!

    This home is perfect. If you want a unique, super clean, comfortable, convenient, old fashioned charm, then book immediately! I loved this house. It was well stocked and Amanda thought of everything to make it easy. Also, the ladies (hens) were so much fun to chat with every morning. Palmer Lake is a great little town that I feel lucky to have discovered. I am already planning on when I can come back.

    Truly wanted for nothing. Amanda’s attention to detail and functionality made this a great time. Area was so peaceful back in the woods but 10 mins for several takeout options. Great setup to eat in as well. WiFi was great for remote work. Would love to go back or recommend for friends.

    The Hen House was an absolutely wonderful location for family’s vacation. The house was adorable and perfect for some relaxation yet close enough to enjoy activities in the area. We would definitely stay again
