Whether you need a place to work or relax this is the place to do it!

Perfect getaway!

It is a perfect place to stay because of its location, cleanliness and the animals were a fun, unique part of our stay. While here, we went to Garden of the Gods, Pikes Peak, and Estes Park. The house is stocked with everything imaginable, we basically only needed our clothing. Owners are super nice and we highly recommend staying at The Nest!

Great little hideaway!

This place had a little bit of everything. Great location (only 30 min from Garden of the Gods), close restaurants and nice scenery. What we got as a bonus was a tiny little farm complete with goats, chickens and pigs that surprised and delighted my daughter (and the adults, can’t lie the pigs are adorable). We will certainly choose this place again in the future!

Peaceful Retreat

We all loved our time at The Nest. The setting was picturesque and peaceful. The house had basic necessities and then some! Our girls loved meeting the animal neighbors and treating them to animal crackers. One of our favorite places to stay by far.

Awesome!!

The house was exactly the way described and fit our needs on point!! Location was great. Quick into town to everything we needed, and not too far to Pikes Peak, Gardens of the Gods, etc. Loved the goats and deer all around, along with the privacy in amongst the trees. Would highly recommend and we will stay when we are back in Colorado!!

Awesome house!!

We absolutely loved our stay. Just far enough out of town to make it feel like you were way out in the country!! My oldest loved getting up in the morning and taking his “hike” around the property! All 3 kids loved the goats and sheep! They were a hoot!! Would definitely recommend staying here!!! Nice peaceful quiet place!

Our wonderful stay at the nest.

We were so glad we booked this amazing property. From the caring owners, to the beautiful location, this house was everything we needed. It was clean inside and out. It had all the amenities we needed. Air conditioning worked great and it was close to stores. We loved feeding the goats and sheep. It was wonderful to meet the owners. Would love to come back.

Awesome Experience

It is hard to fully describe how great this place is. It is a stand alone unit and we had complete privacy during our stay. The unit is a new structure with very nice up to date exterior, interior, decor, and appliances. It has everything needed for a stay plus some extras. Very spacious, comfortable and clean. Would definitely stay here again. Oh, and the goats were a hoot to feed with snacks provided by the owner.

Nesting in place

We came to the Monument area to visit family for Christmas. That was very enjoyable, but this VRBO site made the trip truly memorable. Titled 'the Nest ' it's tucked away in a forest landscape on the hostessess' property but not attached. They have sheep and goats to feed. We were snowbound for 24 hours but it was pleasant to slow down . I recommend the Nest highly
