About this property
Garden Cottage - downtown Manitou Springs
The Garden Cottage at Agate Hill is a 2 story cottage with a covered porch, sitting room, kitchen and 3 bedrooms: 1 King upstairs, 2 bedrooms each with a full sized bed on the main floor. The kitchen has a nicely equipped kitchen with self-cleaning oven and stove, full sized refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker. Coffee, tea hot. The cottage has one bathroom on the main floor. We offer free off street parking for a regular sized vehicle.
All our cottages feature a king sized Select Comfort bed with additional bedrooms with either full or twin beds. Our cottages are cozy with Parlour Gas Log Stoves, air conditioning and kitchens. Our old fashioned bathrooms have original claw-foot (or clawless) tub/showers for soaking tired feet if you hike the Incline or our many trails. We have high speed WiFI, HD TV, DVD players, assorted DVD’s, Chromecast and Hulu Live TV, and a desk.
The Agate Hill Historic District is in downtown Manitou Springs. We are up on the hill so the views are great on a on a quiet residential street. We have almost an acre of gardens. Depending on how you count, we are about 6 houses walking distance to the Post Office and downtown. We have 3 cottages on the property and can host 14 people total. Manitou is hilly, so expect steps and stairs. We are a adult oriented property, which means we welcome quiet well supervised older kids; to be honest if you have younger kids, properties that have play areas and pools are more suitable. Our property is drug and smoke free in its entirety.
Manitou Springs located in the foothills of Pikes Peak just 11 miles west of downtown Colorado Springs via US Hwy 24. Explore the many hiking/biking trails by just leaving from the cottage. In just minutes walk to downtown Manitou and find art galleries, clothing, jewelry or specialty shops, small resturants, pubs or night life or our mineral springs. Within walking distance find Spa services at the SunWater Spa, Heritage Museum, Miramont Castle, Manitou Antique Arcade, weekly summer live music, weekend festivals. With in a mile or so the Cog Railway, Cave of the Winds and Cliff Dwellings.
The owner lives on the property and we feature local Manitou art work by Tina and Ken Riesterer. City of Manitou Springs has been named the world's first certified municipal Pollinator District.
