Country Cottage Cross the Creek, Close to City Feels like Country, One of a Kind

Perfect location for a week visiting daughter. Right next to Santa Fe trail. Fun, daily visits from the adorable farm dog and cat. So much fun staying on a working farm. Owner super friendly, welcoming, and easy to communicate with.

This provided a great start for our family vacation! The host was very friendly and the house was extremely clean!

Overall, we had a great time at the property. Very clean and well taken care of. I appreciated the kid stuff they had like a pack and play, little chairs, and kid utensils. There were just three things we didn’t realize until we got there. There is a bridge without side rails you have to cross to get to the property. It ended up being fine, it was just a little scary the first few times. There is no AC - we are from the south so definitely not used to that but apparently it’s more common here. Since we visited in August, it got warm midday but other than that it wasn’t too bad. Just had to keep the windows open at night until it got too cold, then we had to get up and close them. Not the most convenient, especially when you have a 1 year old in the room that you’re trying not to wake up. Lastly, there were train tracks right by the house. The combo of windows open 1 year old train wasn’t ideal. These things weren’t deal breakers, it was still a great place to stay. I just wanted to put this all out there so others know ahead of time!

Used it to rest eyes on a long trip from Texas to Montana. Very comfortable house. Our second time in this one. Got real cool at night with the windows open!

Peaceful cottage right on a trailhead. We enjoyed the animals that came to visit us daily.

Fully enjoyed the peaceful seclusion of the Cottage but also easy access to all things Colorado Springs! Enjoyed having family join us at the Cottage at times. Very restful with a super host Tosha!! She was always attentive to our needs! Hope we can stay there again!!

This cottage was perfect for us. Very close to everything we were doing, but with a country feel. Very quiet and the owners dog was a great surprise. The kitchen had everything we needed and the space was very comfortable

My family and I had a wonderful stay here. The location was convenient to everything we wanted to do--seeing family in the Black Forrest area, Manitou Springs, Garden of the Gods, and was in a great location for easily getting to grocery stores. The house and property were beautiful, and the house was very comfortable and well appointed. The kids loved the property, as there was plenty of room for them to explore outside. They especially loved walking down to see the horse and the creek every day--and our frequent visits from a sweet calico kitten. Both also loved watching the trains go by (we didn't find the noise to be at all bothersome). We would definitely stay here again!

It is quite the puzzle getting all the way back to this VRBO, unmarked while trying to follow very long instructions. Signs through the property and around other houses and old cars would be helpful. Great inside but odd to be in someone’s backyard so far from civilization (except for the train!).

Perfect place to stay with grand kids at the edge of town but a short drive to everything we did. Very clean and a great setup
