Charming Guesthouse for 2 by Pikes Peak with Mtn Views and 5 Star Reviews!

SOUTHWESTERN CHARM FOR 2!! Relax and renew at the Sanctuary of the Rose - a luxurious guesthouse for two at the base of Pikes Peak with MOUNTAIN VIEWS and close proximity to Colorado Springs'/Manitou Springs' attractions, shops, restaurants and hiking trails!
Amenities include: original wood floors, ceiling vigas, corner kiva fireplace, queen bed with luxury linens, mini kitchen stocked with gourmet coffees and teas, home made chocolate chip oatmeal cookies, full bath with specialty soaps/shampoos, private patio, and outdoor labyrinth. AN ADDED BONUS for 5 Plus night guests: fresh baked homemade Artisan bread delivered to your door your first morning!

GET THE COLORADO EXPERIENCE of being "in" the mountains (instead of staying in town! ) Staying in the Sanctuary gives you the Colorado experience and mountain views you come to Colorado for in addition to being close to the area's attractions, shops, restaurants and hiking trails.

BEAUTIFULLY DECORATED in southwestern décor, The Sanctuary of the Rose features a full sitting room with a corner kiva gas fireplace, original ceiling vigas, wood floors and air conditioning. Flat screen cable TV with numerous channels and Peacock, DVD and CD players, and high speed wireless internet are available, along with a movie and CD collection.

BEAUTIFUL MOUNTAIN VIEWS from the sitting room and front porch await. The Sanctuary is decorated with original art and features a hand painted mural of the Garden of the Gods and Pikes Peak in the sitting room.
A separate BEDROOM area with a queen bed and luxury linens is just off the sitting room. (It features a high quality 2023 firm Beautyrest mattress & 5 star rated memory foam mattress topper.) The bedroom also has a small desk and mountain and garden labyrinth views.

The KITCHENETTE has a microwave, mini fridge, regular and Keurig coffee makers, hot water pot for tea and a Mexican tile table with bar stools. Please note this is NOT A FULL KITCHEN...there is no kitchen sink or stovetop. We have complimentary gourmet coffee and teas and bottled water available for guests. Dishes (paper and stoneware) and silverware are provided. Our guests say this little kitchenette is PERFECT for simple and easy breakfast, lunch or dinner preparation.

The FULL BATH has tile floors and a Mexican tile sink along with a full tub and shower, a hair dryer, specialty shampoo, conditioner, soaps and lotions.

ENJOY SITTING ON A PRIVATE OUTDOOR PATIO OVERLOOKING THE MOUNTAINS and a walking garden labyrinth made of Colorado river rock as you drink your morning coffee or afternoon glass of wine. Deer and hummingbirds are frequent visitors to this lovely area.

My wife and I enjoyed our stay at Sanctuary of the Rose. Ann greeted us as we drove in and walked us into the room to show us the amenities. She even gave us a great recommendation for a place to eat after our long drive. The room was cozy with a comfortable couch for relaxing after a full day of exploring. The bed was comfortable. My wife and I loved the views from the front porch. We loved the location of the room being amongst the mountains but not far from town. This is definitely a place we will stay again when visiting the area.

Cute little cottage with an outstanding host! No kitchen, but a microwave and good coffee maker. We were provided with fresh baked bread and delicious peaches. The place was clean and very comfortable. Very close to Manitou Springs and Garden of the Gods.

A quiet and convenient guesthouse in the mountains

The guesthouse was built in 1934 and has been well taken care of. It still maintains its original character and charm with a few modern conveniences. Although close to busy Highway 24, it was amazingly quiet at night. Plus, it is super convenient for visits back to Colorado Springs or Garden of the Gods. There are many other hiking opportunities nearby. Ann was quick to communicate and was happy to help in any way. She also provided delicious oatmeal raisin cookies...what a bonus! I would highly recommend this guesthouse. My entire experience was outstanding! I would be happy to stay here again when I visit the area.

Sanctuary of the Rose

The sanctuary was incredible! Cute, comfortable, well appointed, it had everything you needed for a short stay. Plenty of local information about restaurants, activities and shopping. The host went out of her way to make our stay wonderful (the cookies were amazing), if we are in the Colorado Spings area in the future we will definitely stay here again.

Stay here if you can!

We were only to stay for two nights because we were in town for a wedding. But this place is incredible - if you have the chance to stay here, take it. The host is so incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the place offers a chance at healing and reflection. We absolutely loved our stay and will be back again.

Close enough, but far enough

This cozy little suite is a great spot to get away. Far enough away from the city that it's a distant thought, but close enough to hop to any activities you may want. The local food was enough to keep us fed for the weekend. While it is tucked away in a neighborhood and we shared some of the outdoor time with the sounds of others, the labyrinth and the mountain views were more than enough to set the much needed relaxing tone. Would definitely saty here again!

Truly a Sanctuary

What a wonderful place to stay for my first visit to Colorado. We gave The Sanctuary and Ann a much deserved 5-star rating. From beginning to end, The Sanctuary was amazing. We arrived to fresh baked cookies, and started the next day with Ann's delicious fresh baked bread and jam. She truly goes above and beyond to make sure her guests are well taken care of. She provided all the amenities you will need for your stay. She takes the stress out of traveling due to her attention to every detail. The Sanctuary itself is truly comfortable and charming, from the bedding to get a good night's sleep, a comfy sofa which is a must when relaxing and a nice patio to enjoy the outdoors. We are looking forward to our 5-star vacation next year.

Peaceful stay

The Sanctuary of the Rose is definitely a sanctuary! I felt so at peace there. Though there is a fair amount of traffic noise from nearby Hwy 24 outside, it is very quiet inside. The casita is the perfect size for one or two and is beautifully appointed and decorated. I found that walking the (well-designed!) labyrinth slowly and intentionally in the evenings helped settle me and set me up for a good night's sleep. One eve it was sprinkling and I had my head down, under a hood. I heard something, looked up and a herd of seven deer had joined me in the labyrinth. They stayed with me until I finished, just shifting enough to let me walk. It was pretty moving - and magical. Ann, who is so kind and friendly, provides delicious cookies and other treats, which were very much appreciated on my hiking excursions. The only thing the casita kitchenette is missing is a sink, but I made do well enough. My only suggestion for the casita would be a light painted strip on the step from the living room up to the bedroom. When I woke up to use the bathroom the first night, I forgot the drop, and nearly took a fall into the living room. Fortunately, my balance is still pretty good and I recovered, but for others that could be dangerous. Otherwise, the sanctuary is sheer perfection. I hope to return someday!
