About this property

Enjoy a tremendous view of Pike’s Peak mountain along with abundant wildlife in the beautiful Colorado Rockies. This newly-remodeled vacation rental home sits at 9,200 feet adjacent to the Pike National Forest. The cabin is perfect for couples, a family, several couples,, or anyone wanting to relax in the mountains any season of the year. This location allows guests to step out of a private mountain home into eight acres of alpine forest, with a short walk to a national forest. This vacation spot offers the best of all worlds; a comfortable home base for relaxing, exploring, and sightseeing, with the conveniences of home; a forest playground; plus the amenities from nearby cities.

This home is equipped with satellite TV both upstairs and downstairs. The two big screen TVs and DVD players are great for watching movies. Visitors will also enjoy the high-speed wireless internet access and the unlimited phone service for both local and long distance calls.

This is an immaculate home with new beds, furnishings, and appliances. The driveway goes to the front door. The cabin features four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen with adjacent dining room, a great room upstairs, and a cozy family room in the lower level. The kitchen, great room, and dining room are open for comfort and convenience. Both the upstairs great room and the lower level family room provide great gathering spots with large windows that bring in the sun and make it easy to view the mountains and wildlife.

The kitchen is fully equipped with appliances, utensils, dishes, and pans. A propane grill on the deck is available for outdoor grilling. All you need to bring is your food. The washer and dryer are provided with laundry soap and softener sheets. The towels and bedding are washed on high temperatures. The outdoor deck provides an exquisite daytime view of Pike’s Peak and clear nighttime view of the solar system. The backyard forms into a tree-covered valley for exploration and hiking. The wood burning stove will take the chill off a cool evening.

This is a great location for those wanting to explore the outdoors, yet remain close to the city and numerous attractions. The roads are well maintained. If wanting to explore beyond the cabin and surrounding forest, there are a multitude of things to do nearby. The cabin is located 15 minutes from Woodland Park (and 30 minutes from Colorado Springs), which has enough stores to provide about any product or service needed. There are many things to do year round in the Pikes Peak Region in addition to fishing, hunting, hiking, rafting, and skiing. The changing of the Aspen leaves in September is breath-taking. Summer time in the Rockies is unmatched, with average temperatures of 70 degrees, the Aspens in full bloom, and a sprinkling of wildflowers.

Loved everything about this place

We had a wonderful stay here. The cabin had so much room and had everything we needed. We felt at home in this place and would love to come back next year. The outside view was breathtaking and it was very peaceful. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay.

Great Colorado Cabin!

This was a wonderful place to stay in Divide, Co. The property was clean and spacious with a great view of the mountains. Very private location but close enough to stores and restaurants. We had a family of 5 with 3 older teenagers and there was plenty of room for us, with 2 separate living room spaces. Kitchen is well appointed with plenty of dishes, utensils and pots/pans. Great access to hiking trails nearby. I would definitely love to stay here again!

Gorgeous Home

The house was absolutely like it was pictured. The view of Pikes Peak was stunning and the house is exceptionally well kept. Communication with the owner was excellent! If you like to get away with a good amount of privacy this the place to be. I highly recommend this place. Thank you for a wonderful vacation.

Quick Getaway

House was comfortable with lots of space in family areas. Bedrooms were small. More bedside tables were needed. Tight space for luggage in bedrooms, so we put it in the family living area. This location is very far from almost anything and on VERY curvy secluded roads. Too many rules NOT disclosed BEFORE booking. Can only wash 3 loads of clothes during stay. We were washing 3 loads a day for our group from activities we completed and towels needed daily. Do yourself a favor and look for your specific activities and see how far the drive will be from this location.

Mountain Retreat!

Looking for a relaxing, comfortable mountain retreat? This place delivered for us! Tucked away in the Rockies with an awesome view of Pikes Peak from the back deck, this cabin was the perfect place for our family vacation! We prepared almost all our meals in the well equipped kitchen, as well as the grill on the deck. The beds were comfortable and there was ample space for eight adults to hang out together. We utilized numerous OHV (Off Highway Vehicle) trails meandering throughout Pike National Forest. These trails are located about three miles from the cabin. We enjoyed watching the deer from the cabin as they feasted on the lush green grass in the large backyard. Day trips to places like the Pikes Peak Cog Railway or Garden of the Gods were about thirty minutes away. We hope to return to this cabin in the future and add new memories!

Fabulous Getaway Spot!!!

This house was incredible! From the moment we walked through the door we knew our stay wasn't going to be long enough! It was perfect for our family of 7. Our children range in age from 2 to 15 and all enjoyed every minute of being here. The mornings and evenings on the deck looking out to Pikes Peak were perfect. We did see a few deer come up to the front of the house. The kitchen is wonderfully stocked and made cooking in so convenient! The ONLY negative thing I would put is that the instructions indicate there is a washer and dryer for guest use but when you get there, there is a sign that says not for guest use. This wasn't a huge deal as we didn't have to use them but with 5 children it could have been handy. We will definitely stay here again. Our children asked if we could move to Colorado and buy this house! Thank you for opening up your wonderful home to our family!!!!!!!

Wonderful family stay!

My family which included my husband, three children, two grandkids, and myself enjoyed Stephen's home from 6/14-6/21/13. We are from Illinois and love Colorado. We have vacationed here 4 times. This was the first time we rented while on vacation. We loved it!! The home is very nice and located In a beautiful place. The view from the deck is breathtaking! We spent many hours sitting at the patio table just looking at the view! We watched a fox everyday we were there, rabbits, hummingbirds, and mule deer. The mule deer had a spotted fawn on the property that we were able to see the last few days there! The house was furnished with everything we needed, except the washer and dryer was not for guest use like the description said(we had to go to Woodland Park to do laundry). The kitchen had pots, pans, and dishes for our use. We even had a waffle iron that we used! We used all the furnished paper plates but was able to purchase more at the store in Divide. We cooked all week, grilling for lunch and dinner. I enjoyed having the dish washer too! We took a gate with us for the deck, which the grandkids enjoyed running back and forth on! The inside of the house was well kept and had ample space for all seven of us. We had space to play games, watch TV, roll on the floor with the kids, and just chill out! No need for air, the evenings were cool and nice. The location was great! We traveled short distances to the Wolf Center, The Dinosaur Museum, Mueller Park, Pikes Peak, and various hiking trails. I truly feel we got our money worth! My son said "we should make an offer on this place". I can't see why anyone would want to leave this place! Stephen was very easy to work with in securing the property for our vacation. The housecleaner was very nice and helpful, also! If you're looking for a vacation spot with a beautiful view~this is it! Great view, great location, great furnishings, great price!!! Thank you

Beyond Perfection

Absolutely stunning views from the expansive deck We were able to see the almost- full moon and a breathtaking moon rise with Pike’s Peak in the background I could go into extreme detail but let me just tell you that this house is impeccable. It’s welcoming, it’s expansive, it’s comfortable, it has amazing views from almost every room. There are three bedrooms and two bathrooms on the top floor and one bedroom downstairs The enormous deck has plenty of room for grilling, dining and visiting. Children would love it and the grassy yard-snowman and Angel time would be a blast! We are here in July so there’s no need however the main coat closet has what seems to be everything anybody would need if they forgot mittens or hats or coat or needed bibs or coveralls. I’ve been to a lot of VRBO houses and that’s extremely generous; I’ve never seen anything like that. They are condiments, paper products and other items left by previous guests that are very helpful Absolutely everything is supplied in his house I can’t imagine you would need a thing just bring your toothbrush and it literally is moving ready. The entire house is decorated very nicely. There are several areas where you can sit and visit with family and plenty of room if you need to get away from them Every room has a big closet as well as several closets in the hallway The laundry room off the kitchen has a microwave, an additional sink, and another refrigerator which is great for lots of beverages and snacks The very first day we were there we had a mama a daddy and a baby deer feeding on the hill right outside of the breakfast nook and they were there for almost an hour it was absolutely beautiful. The deer would appear often in the backyard as well. Contact with the owners was flawless they are very kind and understanding and I highly highly recommend renting this house if you can. You are a little ways away from most things but it’s nice - that’s exact idea Sorry for the long review but I could gush about this house forever it was absolutely beautiful and perfectly supplied perfect location just wonderful - we had people for eight for dinner on the deck- we had dinner inside for eight - we had the breakfast nook every morning - it was just beyond perfect I mistakenly thought that my check out time was different than it actually was and the housekeeper and the owners were more than understanding and completely accommodating.

Divide getaway

Had a great stay for 5 days/4 nights. We brought our atv trailer and although we didn’t try to maneuver it down to the house, there is a garage with a short driveway at the top of the property that we could easily park the trailer to go on some day trips. It’s a very quiet property and really enjoyed the deck on the back. Rooms were all comfortable and well stocked with everything we needed. Owner provided great communication!! Overall great trip and great place to stay!!

The property was very clean and beautifully decorated, it had all the amenities. Living room upstairs and big family room downstairs. There were two TV's although we never turned them on, because there were to many things to do. We brought our jeeps and there are many trails nearby. Great property.

Comfortable cabin in the woods

We had a lovely stay at this cozy house. Beds were comfortable & kitchen is well stocked. The house itself is a bit out of the way, about 45 minutes from pikes peak & garden of the gods. 20 minutes from the fossilized redwoods at Florissant. We vacationed during a busy time for the Colorado Springs area, so it was lovely to come home to this cozy and quiet cabin after a day of activities.

Snowmageddon21

Wife and I took our 5 year old and almost 3 year old twins for our first family vacation. We almost canceled because we saw that there was a chance for up up to 4’ of snow, but figured there was no better place to be snowed in than a cabin in the mountains! Sure enough, we got 18” of snow and spent 3 days at the cabin just relaxing as a family watching the snow! The owners were very accessible and even arranged to have the driveway plowed so we could get out. The pictures don’t do this property justice. Very comfortable and close to al that you could want to do (as long as you aren’t t snowed in haha) we highly recommend this property and look forward to going back!

About the host

Your host

We are both educators who have always loved the mountains. We honeymooned in Colorado, return every summer, and long wanted to own a home in the Rockies.

Why they chose this property

We have friends living in this area who always raved about the Pikes Peak region. The view of Pikes Peak from our cabin was a selling point; you can watch the mountain change in appearance ten times a day. There is so much to do in this area, particularly within an hour's drive. It's centrally located in Colorado, close to Colorado Springs and Denver, and is easily accessible.

What makes this property unique

Some of the greatest benefits to vacationing here are the simple ones... totally relaxing, watching the hummingbirds and deer, experiencing the daily weather changes, and constantly seeing the mountains. Great fishing is nearby. And of course, the high-speed internet access!!
