**OTHER THINGS TO NOTE**:
This house is the first and largest unit of 3 different units located in one building (triplex). Please keep in mind there is a small apartment above you and you will be sharing common areas such as the backyard and laundry area with other people. Guests booking this unit do have a private entrance at the front porch and priority over the porch however, you might see your 1 neighbor or other guests around common areas or to collect their mail located on the porch. We greatly appreciate your patience and friendliness with other guests and neighbors!

This house was built in 1910 so please understand while it has a lot of history and memories, it also has some quirks you could expect from an older home. Guests might experience some creakiness in the floors and some stiffness with the bathroom features, we hope it adds to the charm and appreciate your patience and care with the older home! THERE ARE RING SECURITY CAMERAS ON THE DOORBELL AND IN THE BACKYARD. These are here to ensure guest safety. Thank you.

This is a great place to stay if you are in town visiting a student at CC or want to be near downtown Colorado Springs for business or pleasure. Easy, level walking to everywhere you could possibly want to go. Plenty of space for your stuff (we were moving a student into college, so we needed space). Easy parking. Plenty of seating for the whole family. Very clean, and host responsive to questions. Excellent value. Recommend!

We enjoyed being able to walk to dinner and the park. Quiet neighborhood, easy parking, historic charm. Make sure you bring quarters for the shared laundry facility. We made a run to the penny arcade to make change (what a fun excuse to play games)!

Best Location for Our Quick Stop in CO Springs!

My husband and I and our two friends stayed here for a night on our drive from Texas to Steamboat. It was a perfect location and walking distance to downtown. Check-in was easy, the heater worked great and we were very comfortable during our stay. Will plan to stay again on our next time through town!

About the host

Hosted by Katherine Williams

Host profile image
Hey fellow travelers my name is Katherine. My mom Linda and I both own and manage this great place in The Springs! I love thrifting, the outdoors and finding new hidden gems. I also love traveling and have been to 7 countries and 12 states (so far!)
Born and raised In Colorado I think it’s such a beautiful place to live and travel. I strive to reflect on my adventures when I host so you have the best vacation experience and quickly fall in love with Colorado like I have!

Why they chose this property

What I love most about this neighborhood is the perfect balance between fun and exciting things to do just a short walk away yet still maintaining a safe, quiet and peaceful feel! The house and location are absolutely perfect for both the family or solo travelers alike. There's really something for everyone at this great place so close to Downtown!

What makes this property unique

I think the property is unique because of it's perfect location in The Springs; centrally located close enough to Downtown for a handful of activities yet still feeling safe and peaceful. The neighborhood is very personal, there's always people walking around, a beautiful view of the mountains in the distance and even music from the middle school across the street in the afternoons. But what makes this place really special is sitting out on the porch swing, lounging and enjoying a cup of steaming coffee while experiencing all this location has to offer!
