Our beautiful, 2200 square foot, three-story Woodland Park retreat is set in three completely private, tranquil, aged pine and aspen acres of high Colorado mountain woodland.
We have named our home 'Woodland Park Retreat' and are offering it for rental to help us keep it for our future retirement. It has three spacious bedrooms and a huge 21-foot loft bedroom all with terrific comfy, good-quality beds, designer bathroom fixtures and a fabulous cherry wood, fully-fitted designer kitchen with stainless-steel appliances and center island.
The house is decorated in a soft yellow cream throughout and is bright and airy with enormous windows, hardwood in the Great Room and carpeting in the bedrooms, tiled entrance.
The Great Room has a vaulted beamed ceiling with French doors straight out to the spacious, wrap-around deck to view the distant and often snow-capped mountains. Pine trees weave their way through the deck and, in different seasons, you can watch the brilliant blue Stellar Jays and tiny hummingbirds feed. Or enjoy the Mule Deer as you dine either inside or al fresco on the deck.
Go down to the lower deck and take a relaxing dip in the large, and completely private, six to eight person hot tub. This is especially magical when it is snowing or while star gazing as there is no light pollution here! If it is a winter vacation, snuggle down in front of the fires (on both levels) and sit down to enjoy a good read or a movie from our selection.
We make a promise that you will have a wonderfully peaceful (or busy if you so wish!) vacation in our fully-furnished and well-equipped home with great quality mattresses, plenty of space and lots of conveniences including satellite television, 42' LCD HDTV, DVD, sound system. Everything you could need has been catered to including a further family area for lounging, games (a variety of board games and puzzles provided together with table and chairs). Migun FAR Infrared Massage Bed to use all you want!

Amazing!!! The cabin and area was beautiful! Well kept and peaceful. Our family had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend and return!!
We enjoyed our stay in the Pike National Forest
It is beautiful and very comfortable tastefully decorated the issues were the drive is down a dirt road and the path to the house is very rough. The massage bed didn't work and while taking a shower if a toilet flushed or a sink was turned on the water to the shower almost stopped completely., just drips it took about 3 minutes to come back on. Otherwise the deck and hot tub are wonderful the kitchen is great and fully equipped and the atmosphere is peaceful. I would stay again
Location was beautiful, we were in the woods but easy access to towns to eat and shop and of course, Pikes Peak is visiable at a lot of turns!!!
Very pretty setting. Cabin was well stocked. Decor very nice
We came for son’s USAFA graduation. Our family of six kids had so much fun cooking nice meals, relaxing in the hot tub, walking around the Ridgeway neighborhood, and visiting local attractions, like Manitou Park Lake and the Manitou Incline.
Stay here! We will again. The only downside was the hot tub was finicky the last night (but worked great for almost all of our stay) and the property manager's phone line was busy when I tried to call them, so I ended up having to bug the owner (which I felt bad about). They allowed us to check out an hour later though, so that was very kind of them. I washed almost all the towels as a thank you. We will definitely book again!
This property is wonderful. The location is superb! We saw wild turkey's and deer. The house is comfortable. We enjoyed our time lounging and relaxing!
Everything met standards
The property is in an absolutely gorgeous location. There was a lot of space for just us. We went sledding and then got in the hot tub and even used the massage bed, which there are no words for how amazing that experience was. The property was very clean and the beds were super comfortable. I have a couple of suggestions; have a light on the sign at the driveway entry, because we missed it a couple of times trying to find it in the dark, and maybe have a light on at the house because again in the dark, you do not see it until you are right up on the property. Also I know it's not a requirement or anything, but just having some coffee and shampoo/conditioner in place would be a nice touch. We still loved the place and would most definitely go back.
We loved our time in Woodland Park! The house is clean and maintained. The weather was cold and snowy for us; when we couldn't go out, there were plenty of games and movies to keep us entertained! Great place to disconnect!
We stayed a long weekend with family for our moms 60th birthday, had a wonderful time, This was the second time we’ve stayed here. The only hiccup was the gas was out so it was very cold when we first arrived. It was able to warm up with the back up baseboard heating. The owner was extremely quick in response and we had a wonderful for our vacation.
Everything was clean and as described. The owner and property manager were both very responsive and friendly. The property is secluded and VERY relaxing with all the amenities. The kids entertained themselves with adventures outside, and us parents were pleased that they spent so much time connecting with nature. Internet is not fast and cell signal is weak, which we knew going into it. Honestly that was part of the appeal - being forced to disconnect with electronics and reconnect with nature and family.
We love staying at this property. There is plenty of space for a family stay or a group. It's quiet and private, but close enough to the city for food and activities. Hot tub is a great plus as well. This was our 2nd time staying here and we plan to come back again!
Or family has a very nice time and had a lovely stay at this property!
Thank you for sharing your lovely home. Everything was as described. We slept well; Ate well and played hard! We saw deer and turkey several times! The hot tub was a wonderful way to relax each evening.
