We had a great stay here visiting our kid at USAFA. The highlight was the beautiful garden and the opportunity to bbq and hang out in the outdoor dining area.
Great location, but the home was advertised as 2 bathrooms and it only one.
This home was perfect for hosting our family reunion. The kids items already there were a huge plus, and John and Jenny were extremely easy to work with. The home is on a really busy street, but it wasn’t too big of a deal. There’s also a park a few blocks away.
Overall impression was great. Historic home and we loved the decor that matched. Plenty of space for us to sit and visit inside and multiple porches and gathering areas outside. Would stay again if we have the need.
The house was really nice and certainly fit our needs for our family reunion. The yard could have used some sprucing up but we mostly used the backyard bbq area which was perfect. John and Jenny were wonderful to work with and provided great communication and service. We would certainly recommend the house and would come back again.
This was a nice home and location for everything we wanted to do in Colorado Springs. Easy walking area as well.
With two separate living areas each on its own floor, our daughter's family had their own space and we had ours to retire to. We did not make use of the outdoor living area and hot tub due to competing activities and spring weather, but they are a wonderful addition. We plan to be back next year.
It was a beautiful house an we had a great time
The host was great, literally the best part of the house! The house was mewe but it seems to be the theme for that area. The house is historic though. Not as clean as anticipated but the whole area seemed kind of like that. The house really has everything you need for your stay (minus food). The house definitely has the space! We had a large group of us and it didn’t feel like we were on top of each other.
We had such a memorable stay at the home. It has so many great features, but our family enjoyed the hot tub the most. We never left the property for our whole stay. Jenny &John thanks for making our Christmas the best yet!
