The Pines Ranch is 2233sf and sits on a private 4+ acre wooded property in the Colorado Springs Black Forest area. It's close to restaurants, shopping, and fairly close to tourist attractions. The living room has a TV, fireplace and fast wifi. The large garden level basement features foosball, air hockey, a bar, and 98 inch TV. In the backyard, enjoy a 6-person hot tub, propane fire pit, dining, a herd of deer that frequent the property and in Spring, a fox and kits playing.
The house is fully furnished and each room is unique. It features 1 King, 3 Queens, 2 Twins, and 2 Full-Size folding mattresses. There' is a portable air conditioner in the family room and primary bedroom (during the Summer months) and overhead fans in the bedrooms to keep it comfortable. The private property is huge and you will not have to share it with anyone else! You are in Colorado Springs (minutes from restaurants and stores), but the peaceful forest makes you feel far from the city.
You may notice that the cleaning fee we charge is lower than similar listings. We don't make money on fees; in fact, we lose money on every cleaning because we pay our cleaners more than we charge. As owners who also manage, we are proud of our house so we inspect and sign off on every cleaning before you arrive. Our crew averages 8 man hours on every cleaning. The spa is serviced and sanitized between every booking. Everything is sterilized, including appliances, door knobs, sinks, toilets, showers, tables and countertops. Carpets are vacuumed and hardwood floors are mopped. All bedding and pillows are washed. We believe this focus on cleanliness is what separates us from hotels and other listings.
Please note that, while we provide a highchair 2 pack n plays, a baby gate, and toys, this space has not been child-proofed. The 4-acre yard is not mowed or manicured so wildlife can thrive. And there is an outdoor security camera above the garage facing the driveway. We are animal lovers, but very allergic so we have a strict no pet policy and appreciate your understanding. This also keeps the ranch sparkling.

The house was well stocked and comfortable. The hosts were the perfect amount of checking in, but not being overbearing. Our family will definitely be staying here again! Thanks Travis & Kristin!
We had such a lovely stay here while hosting family in town for graduation. The house was spotless, peaceful, and had plenty of room for everyone to be together comfortably. We really loved the quiet Black Forest setting — seeing deer and a fox around the property made it feel extra special, and it was so nice to be away from city noise while still being close enough to town for anything we needed.The hot tub was a huge plus, and the kitchen was incredibly well stocked for cooking family meals together. Overall, it felt warm, relaxing, and easy from start to finish. Would definitely stay again.
We absolutely loved our stay in the cabin! We came for a family vacation and booked this property for the country living and it did not disappoint! It was super clean, fully stocked (cooking utensils, towels for hot tub, toys for kids and even had some snacks), had plenty of space (4 adults 4 kids) and was just all around a great place to stay! Our last morning here it even snowed!! We will absolutely be back!
The hosts were so communicative and kind! The location was perfect. So close to our wedding venue and the rooms suited our groomsman perfectly! Highly recommend staying here!
A fantastic spot to stay! We were a group of adult friends attending a wedding in Black Forest. The house literally had everything you needed & the host was incredibly helpful and friendly! Highly recommend!!! Thank you so much!
We really enjoyed the overall stay! House was perfect for our family's needs! Lots of amenities and was close to all activities and shopping. Thank you!!
It was amazing! So beautiful and nice and the perfect relaxing weekend stay. It’s perfect to hang out and just chill and the air hockey table too! So much fun! Very lovely place, a gem in Colorado Springs. And the owners were great too! Fast communication and very nice. Truly appreciate it very much.
We stayed for 4 days and had a great experience. We had issues with the oven rhe first night and the host had a solution for us the next day and was very communicative throughout the whole process. All of the amenities were perfect and we had a great time relaxing after apending all day doing activities in and around Colorado Springs.
My friends and I stay in Blackforest CO often on bird hunting trips. This was one of our favorites to date. Very spacious and just what we needed. Great stay
Our stay at this property was great, everyone loved it and it was plenty room for our party of 8. The house was clean and the beds are comfortable. Its located far enough away to be quiet & relaxing and close enough to be convenient.
We rented this house for a young family with their grandmothers and everyone enjoyed and appreciated the layout of the house and all the furnishings. The toys and play things in the basement were very appreciated.
Our family came in for a wedding at a venue in Black Forest. The house was perfectly located and suited for the entire family. We also got to enjoy the community of Black Forest with food, drink and a local craft/art show.
Great accommodations!
Truly appreciated the cleanliness and overall beauty of this location! Owners were fantastic! Anything you could need was well stocked. Owners were flexible in our unique requirements. A couple of folks in our party enjoyed the location so much that they plan to return in the coming year.
Our son got married only minutes from this home away from home. The house was clean, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed. It was perfect for getting ready for and relaxing after the celebration. The hosts did an excellent job of communicating. We would definitely recommend staying here!
This property is the perfect balance of peace (parents) and entertainment (kids)! The hosts know how to host; plenty of soap, shampoo, towels and treats. We even had a herd of deer grace us with their presence while we were in the hot tub! It was a great place, I highly recommend!!

About the host
Hosted by Travis Kniep
We absolutely love hosting because it’s so fulfilling. You’re making memories with loved ones and doing so in a beautiful setting!
Why they chose this property
Black Forest is one of the few areas in Colorado Springs that is wooded, which makes it so special. When you drive into it, you’ll feel as though you’re in a completely different area.
What makes this property unique
The Pines Ranch is unique in that you’re staying in a 4-acre, wooded lot that’s just for you. It’s so peaceful and comfortable. Speaking of comfort, we have tried to think of everything you may need so you don’t have to. You’ll have a stocked kitchen and bathrooms. Just bring your clothes, swimsuit/trunks for the jacuzzi, and food (or place a Walmart delivery order or pickup from Target just 8 minutes away). Also, there are great amenities so there’s something for everyone.
