About this property
Hidden Gem: Heated Pool, Gorgeous Mountain Views, 2.4 Acres inside City, A/C, EV
NON-SMOKING PROPERTY. Located in Erindale Heights, one of the true hidden treasures of Colorado Springs. It is nestled away in a private 2.4 acres of land but surrounded by metropolitan amenities. Many of the area’s newest and most compelling restaurants, shopping outlets, and theaters are within 5 minutes away. It is adjacent to Austin Bluffs Open Space and Pulpit Rock Park which are known to be some of the areas' best open spaces and parks. Additionally, Garden of the Gods is within visible distance from our home and only 8.3 miles (13.3 km) away by car. Our location is also very accessible to the following institutions:
• University of Colorado at Colorado Springs (2.5 mi/4.0 km)
• Air Force Academy (3.5 mi/5.6 km to gate)
• Colorado College (8.0 mi/12.8 km)
• Peterson AFB (12.1 mi/19.5 km)
• Fort Carson (17.3 mi/27.8 km)
We also have a combined over 35 years of area knowledge to share with you including our favorite restaurants, sightseeing, parks, and more. Along with the area guide, you'll also find everything you need to know about our home. Whether information about air conditioning to the heated all-year-round pool, you will find it all in a bound copy of our Guest Welcome upon checking.
Guests' safety is our #1 priority:
• Our pool is safe! Per CDC: "There is no evidence that COVID-19 can be spread to humans through the use of pools and hot tubs. Proper operation, maintenance, and disinfection (e.g., with chlorine and bromine) of pools and hot tubs should remove or inactivate the virus that causes COVID-19." We use chlorine, pool shocks, and UV light to keep our pool germs free even before COVID-19!
• Our cleaners have been fully vaccinated for COVID-19. We have multiple cleaners to perform cleaning. We use disinfectant solutions on kitchen, bathrooms, and common surfaces, etc.
• We provide hand sanitizer(s), disinfectant wipes, and latex gloves for our guests to use during their stays.
• We have sufficient linens so that our towels and sheets are washed, stored, and rotated between different groups so that no consecutive groups are sharing the same set of towels or linens.

What makes this property unique
Our vacation home has so many unique characters from a Southwestern adobe style, private balcony, heated lap pool, and 2.4 acres of land right in the middle of the city! The direct gorgeous mountain views of Pulpit Rock, Garden of the Gods, and Pikes Peak are all within visible distance!
The entire vacation home will be solely yours during your stay. Our property is great for hiking including our 2.4 acres of land and rock formations for you to explore. You may hike to Pulpit Rock directly from Hidden Gem if you are the adventure types. Hiking time is up to 40 minutes depending on physical fitness (depending on physical fitness and a good sense of direction) by crossing unmarked paths, ravines, and rock formations to get there. This is an area with great glimpse of wildlife.
Note, during winter season, in [rare] case of heavy snow, it is highly recommended that you travel in a high clearance and four-wheel drive capable vehicle with good winter tires in order to get through our paved but steep driveway. Otherwise, we would recommend parking the vehicles in the immediate cul-de-sac area.
