We absolutely loved our stay at the little house by the creek in Manitou Springs. The house was absolutely perfect for everything we needed, especially the location both to downtown and Pikes Peak and Garden of the Gods. We were able to park and walk most of the week without having to take our vehicle anywhere. Loved the creekside patio really appreciate your hospitality. We will definitely be back as soon as possible.

Perfect

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The charming house sits in the middle of prime location for shopping, dining and sightseeing in the beautiful town of Manitou Springs. We couldn’t have asked for a better location. The house was clean and were impressed with all the essentials that were available throughout the house. The owner reached out by text just to ensure we had no concerns or needs. It was perfect.

Perfect getaway

This was a super cute home in the perfect location! We were within driving distance of several attractions and within walking distance of shopping and dining. The home was comfortable and had everything we needed! Some other renters had a hard time with parking- we didn’t have any problems tho! Loved our stay!

Red Rocks with my Sis

Perfect cottage for my sister and myself to enjoy the nearby sights, hiking, shopping, and dining of Manitou Springs, as well as make the trip to Golden to catch a show at Red Rocks Amphitheater. Especially enjoyed the back patio area in the evenings, and close proximity to the Incline.

Cozy and comfortable in Manitou

I had a wonderful stay here. The house itself is great - cozy but not cramped and perfect for my solo trip. The backyard is wonderful and right on the creek so nice and serene. Location is nice, too - five minute walk to great coffee in the morning, but not in the middle of the crowds when things got going in the afternoon. The owners were also super responsive and helpful - when I texted with a question about the TVs, they responded instantly and got me sorted in no time. Great stay and I look forward to the next one.

Little Blue House

Parking spot was always taken by shop next door. House is nice but dated. Property manager did come when called about not being clean. Owner knows about parking situation because they offer a free public parking pass down the road. Would have made a difference in booking property.

PARKING!

This is a great little property to stay at in Manitou Springs. It is a great location right on the main strip. The only downside to this property is the parking. You cannot park right in front of the house. There is a parking lot a few houses down that the house has a pass for but it is also a pay to park lot. Therefore, you are not guaranteed a spot. This becomes a problem when you are trying to come back from a long day of sight seeing and have to try to find a parking spot somewhere until something in the lot opens up. This becomes a real problem when there is an event going on in the park! Also, when you arrive, there is nowhere to stop to drop off all of your luggage. They say they are working something out with the city to solve this problem. Hopefully they figure something out soon!
