About this property

5 bd 4 bth, AC, fireplace, hikes, waterfalls, salt water hot tub, walk to town!

Come visit The Catamount Lodge in the idyllic mountain town of Green Mountain Falls, Colorado! Green Mountain Falls is the perfect location for your next family getaway, located at the base of America's Mountain, Pike's Peak. Hiking, biking, sight-seeing, ATV trails, Garden of the Gods, Cliff Dwellings, Cave of the Winds, Manitou Springs, Old Colorado City, Dinosaur Resource Center, restaurants, shopping, Pike's Peak Highway, The North Pole/Santa's Workshop, are all within a 15 minute drive. From the property, you will be a short walk to waterfalls and beautiful hiking trails. Green Mountain Falls town center is 1 mile away with restaurants, a small lake with a trail around it with fishing allowed, and a beautiful park with playground equipment. Community pool is open in the summer.

Green Mountain Falls is a beautiful place to visit at any time of year, with the golden aspens in the fall, ice over the lake in the winter, green trees and wild flowers in the spring and summer, and hiking year round! Green Mountain Falls is also the home of the annual The Green Box event in early July. This is also the perfect location if you are attending the world famous Pike's Peak International Hill Climb at the end of June. With Woodland Park just 5 miles away, it is a convenient yet quaint and quiet location!

The Catamount Lodge is a 2,850 sq ft property, 5 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms with central heat and air. The house has high vaulted ceilings, which makes for open and inviting spaces to enjoy time with friends and family. The master bedroom has a king size bed and a bathroom with a tub and a shower and is on the main floor, with the kitchen, dining room and living area. The upstairs has two bedrooms, each with a queen bed and a shared bathroom which has a tub and shower. In the lower level are two bedrooms with bunkbeds, full size in one room and twin in the other. There is also a small room with a TV, books and games, perfect for kids! The lower level also has a bathroom with stand-up shower. The kitchen is well appointed, with a toaster, coffer maker, crock pot, utensils, pots and pans, dishwasher, ice maker, double oven, and microwave. Kitchen also has a cozy breakfast nook with a lovely view. Also on the main floor is a half bathroom and large dining room with a table large enough for 10-12 people. The main living area has lots of comfortable seating, and a 65'" TV with plenty of streaming and a state of the art surround sound system.

Outside is a large deck with a seating area and a table. The views from the deck are breathtaking and you can hear the creek flowing from there. There is also a small bistro-style seating area in the back of the house where you can watch the deer meander by while you sip your morning coffee. Even the occasional bear sighting! There are two single-car garages that guests may use, as well as spots for three cars on the driveway. You are only a short distance from the trailhead of the best hikes in the area. This home is located on one of the most scenic streets in town!

Green Mountain Falls is about 90 miles from the closest ski resort, Breckenridge. The drive to Breckenridge is gorgeous, so consider making this your base for winter sports, avoiding higher prices in the resort towns.

We do allow up to 2 dogs, but ask that they not be allowed on furniture and that there be no trace left in the yard. No smoking in the house, please. This is a quiet neighborhood. We do not allow large parties and ask that a quiet time of 9:00 PM be observed. Only registered guests are allowed to stay at the house. 10% military discount offered, please inquire.

If you want the complete Colorado experience, The Catamount Lodge at Green Mountain Falls is the place for you!

Great mountain rental

Our family of 7 adults enjoyed our stay very much. The property was clean and had everything we needed. The owner was very responsive to all of our requests, responding each time within only a few minutes. The two downstairs bedrooms are very small and both have bunkbeds which take up most of the space. They would be more appropriate for younger children than for adults. Overall we were very pleased with our stay.

Breathtaking views

My family and I absolutely enjoyed our stay in this home! The views/scenery from the home are breathtaking. It was myself, husband, our 4 children ages 17-25 and their 2 friends ages 18 and 20. The home is spacious although I would suggest taking an additional space heater to warm the entry area downstairs. Other than that it was amazing!! We were so close to Pikes Peak, Cave of the winds, Garden of the gods. We also ate breakfast a few times at The Pantry restaurant which is about 3 minutes from the house. Great food! We also hiked outside of the house! How convenient is that?! The home has a beautiful fireplace. For one of our meals we all ate outside on the patio table and enjoyed the views of the trees and snow. I could go on and on. My husband and I definitely recommend this home!!

Check in was simple, and Beth (our host) was easy to communicate with. It was a great place for our family gathering. The kids loved the "hidden" library. There was plenty of dining space to eat together, and use for games and puzzles. The living area is very comfortable with lots of seating, and we loved the saltwater spa, not smelling like chlorine afterwards. It's a short walk to a trailhead to some waterfalls, and there were deer and turkeys all around the neighborhood. Also, plenty of parking for our three cars, and a relatively short drive to several sights. Overall very happy with the home.

The Mountain View was so lovely. We enjoyed sipping coffee in the morning on the balcony. The hot tub was clean and warm. For those wanting to hike, the trailhead is practically next door. My children had a wonderful time fishing in Green Mountain Falls and want to return. My husband and I celebrated our 20th anniversary and enjoyed the short drive to have a memorable dinner in Colorado Springs. We also enjoyed meals at local Green Mountain Falls establishments. Overall, we experienced an unforgettable stay and hope to vacation in this lovely home again!

We loved our long weekend here while visiting our cadet at USAFA! The location was beautiful with trails to explore right at the front door! An extra perk was the fishing poles ready to go that our youngest enjoyed especially! Thank you for the well thought out kitchen staples, too! These made meals much more tasty!

Amazing location. Amazing hosts. Amazing property. Everyone in our family loved this property. Hot tub and fire pit made the nights relaxing and being located next to trailheads and waterfalls there’s always something to keep you busy. This was our first time CO and we will be back.

Family Fun

The lodge was very nice and accommodated our family of 8 very well. It’s located within a 30 minute drive to all the attractions you want to do and see in the Manitou Springs and Colorado Springs area. The outdoor space and hot tub are so nice for relaxing after a long day of excursions. However, there is a cabin directly behind the outdoor space, but a small fence provides privacy. We were not bothered by the residence behind the lodge. Just a note: there are two sets of steep stairs one to the main living space and one to the 3 3rd story bedrooms. Plenty of baby gates are provided to protect little ones or pets. The kitchen is well equipped, however the pots and pans could to be updated. We had a wonderful stay and saw a bear the morning we were leaving. The hosts were very accommodating and kind!

About the host

Hosted by Beth Apotheker

Host profile image
We are originally from Michigan and moved to Colorado in 2002 to enjoy the skiing, mountain biking, hiking and scenery and never left. We purchased this home in 2022 so we could share our love of the area with people from all over. We both work in the medical field and enjoy working with the public and are customer service oriented. We love to share our favorite spots and provide a clean, comfortable and inviting place for guests to stay. We live close by and are available to assist our guests any time of day or night when needed.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Green Mountain Falls the first time we went there, over 20 years ago, and have made the area our home. Feels like we're always on vacation!

What makes this property unique

Fabulous location. Beautiful 1-mile walk into town, along Belvidere Avenue and Fountain Creek. The trailhead to Catamount Reservoir, Garden of Eden, Thomas Trail, and the waterfalls is a 3 minute walk from the front door!
