Perfect place to stay for wedding

We attended a wedding at Craftwood peak and this place was just around the corner! Also this place is directly across from Briarwood, another popular wedding event place. This is very close to the tourist area of Manitou Springs. The house is old and has some quirks ( squeaky floors) but I found it charming. Many nearby eateries and the river is across the street!

Felt like home

Fantastic little house that felt like home! Backed up to the cliff, it was quiet and comfy. The hosts were amazing and quick to answer any questions and take care of any needs. Close to downtown and easy to find. Highly recommend!

Cute place, convenient location

Very cute place. Extremely clean. The place was larger than I expected as well. We appreciated the convenience to downtown and walked there several times. My one complaint may be something completely outside the host’s control - there is very little sound separation between the upper VRBO unit and the basement unit. We had our 1 year old with us who woke up at 7:30am and started doing toddler things (running around, asking for breakfast) and we heard the downstairs occupant yelling and cursing at us that he was trying to sleep. It made for an awkward stay the rest of the time! So may not recommend this unit if you have little ones!

In the heart of Manitou

We enjoyed our stay here. The house was as advertised. Things were neat and clean. Communication with the hosts was easy. It was a great location for doing things around Manitou- Cog Railway, Incline (though we just explored it, didn’t climb). Parking there was very limited

Cute, Cozy, and Great Location

Very convenient location to many beautiful views and adventures. House looks like pictures. Had 1 minor problem with the power, but it was acknowledged and taken care of immediately. One morning we had a visit from 2 huge mule deer bucks in the front yard! Loved our stay!

Nice home close to Manitou Springs

Very clean home with comfortable furnishings within easy walking distance to downtown Manitou Springs and hiking trails. Thought it was a stand-alone house offering quiet and privacy but upon check-in learned there was a basement unit occupied by other guests and significant noise transmission between the two units. I would have appreciated having this disclosed beforehand as I would have chosen a more private rental.

Amazing!

Perfect little house and absolutely amazing location close to downtown Manitou Springs. Probably a 5-10 minute walk to get into the area with the shops and eating places! Very clean and had everything we needed, loved that we had a driveway to park in since parking is so limited and expensive down there. 10/10, would definitely stay again!
