This was a great family vacation! The home was perfect for all of the family to be together and yet had enough room for privacy! The location was perfect, close to all of the attractions we went to! The kids absolutely loved the Zip Line and the ground floor trampoline! The decks were great for our gatherings for morning coffee & evening relaxation! Communications with Susanne was great! we would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful house that needs some TLC

House worked well for our extended family vacation. Grandkids enjoyed the zipline and the hot tub. Some of the windows wouldn’t shut/lock which bothered us at night. Some appliances and the grill were in need of a deep clean, and a maintenance person showed up unannounced late on our last night. Susanne was easy to reach and responded quickly to our concerns.

Perfect Family Vacation

This house was just perfect for our multi family vacation. We had children ages 5, 3, and 2 years old, and they had so much fun. The playroom inside was perfect and the kids loved the outdoor fun. The kitchen had everything we needed to make at home meals for 8 people. It exceeded our expectations and made it a very memorable trip.

Family and friends graduation celebration

We gathered to celebrate our daughter’s graduation. The property is spacious and grand. It is an older farmhouse with lots of character and lots of privacy. The owner was friendly and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed the amenities especially the outdoor space with the fire pit, volleyball court, and grill. I would highly recommend.

Small Company Retreat

We had a wonderful stay at the farmhouse! We had a small company retreat and there were enough rooms for our team - each very comfortable. Beyond being a stunning home, there is so much to do, from the hot tub. pool table to the gorgeous outdoor space. It would be perfect for a large family gathering - I am noting that for future as there are lots of amenities for children.

Absolutely Beautiful!

This home was perfect for our large family with five children under the age of four. The indoor play room and outside play areas kept them happily occupied for hours. We enjoyed the outdoor areas especially in the evenings as we sat around the nice fire pit. The home is older and is showing some wear but we’d stay here again in the future for sure! It feels like a true home and is decorated beautifully. It was very clean and had all sorts of extras in case we forgot anything. Thank you for the use of this amazing property!

Amazing home great for my large family!

The owners were very friendly and accommodating. From the moment my family of 19 arrived they were in awe at how big and nice the home was. There were so many things to do at the home itself, from zip line and the in ground trampoline, to laying in the hammock or relaxing in the hot tub. The town was lovely with plenty of places to sightsee. We will definitely try to come back and stay here again. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Wonderful for family gathering.

The location is beautiful as is the home. It is perfect for a family gathering. We enjoyed the large patio and the volleyball net and hot tub. Outdoor fireplace was great. The big tables in the kitchen and dining rooms were perfect for family games. All beds were very comfortable and there are plenty of bathrooms. Let the owner know ahead of time how much refrigerator space you will need so they can make room. The owner was very helpful with suggestions and responded quickly to all questions. We had a great stay!

All the Comforts of a Lovely Home

This beautifully appointed home is comfortable and aesthetically pleasing. So many things to do for every age group and interest. The kitchen is perfect, bedrooms comfortable and elegant. Kids are king here! Outdoor and indoor spaces are creative and thoughtfully planned. We used Chef Chris Bierbaum at Susanne's recommendation and he was awesome to help us enjoy our family time together. We will return.

Best Vacation Rental Ever!

This was a wonderful and fun house and beautiful property for our annual family vacation. The bedroom/bathroom arrangement was the best we've ever had. We used all 8 bedrooms, plus there was still a twin/trundle in the playroom and a sleeping loft upstairs that weren't used. The house was just as it was described on the VRBO listing, very spacious and beautiful. Of course, the zipline, trampoline, and spa were a big hit with every age. The main floor kitchen/pantry was extremely well-stocked, and there were plenty of towels available throughout the entire house. Susanne, the owner, was available and responsive to any questions we had.

Beautiful Location

The location was absolutely beautiful! The owners were extremely helpful and on-site a lot! They made sure that things were cleaned. The only problem was the spa jacuzzi it wasn’t working properly and wasn’t usable. We reported to owners and they tried to attend to it but I think maintenance was needed. Other than that there were no other issues. We were able to zip line on the property! We had a blast! Some cooking supplies were provided for us. Wonderful stay!

This house is amazing!

Went to Colorado Springs for our son's wedding; we had family and friends stay with us. Two of the nights there were 14 people at the house. Susanne Hoffman, owner, is wonderful; even met her son Ben who was also wonderful. There are 8+ rooms with beds. House is fully stocked with everything you could require, other than food, of course. Very clean home. Very welcoming, we all felt so comfortable there. On the property (5 acres) there is a zip line for the kids, trampoline, playset, the hot tub/infinity pool. Beautiful experience,, we highly recomment this home.

Great Family Vacation

My family of adult children, with children of their own, have not taken a family vacation together since 2011. This year we chose the Colorado Farmhouse as our getaway accommodations. The home and furnishings were perfectly lovely. The house provided us with more than enough private space that we never felt like we were on top of each other. However, it also had plenty of public areas for us to sit around and share meals, have evening drinks around the fire pit, and on the most basic level enjoy each other’s company. The kids loved all the outdoor activities that the grounds provided, by far their favorite thing to do was the zipline. This house made the perfect backdrop for our family vacation and is undoubtedly a fixture in some of the memories made while exploring Colorado with my grandchildren.

Amazing Colorado Farmhouse

We stayed at this amazing property from July 3-8 2019. The pictures don't even do it justice. We had a total of 3 families (14 people total) stay and there was more than enough room for more. The home has so many amenities.. If we had left it up to the kids, they would have stayed at the house the whole time. The home was very clean, organized, and beyond beautiful. The homeowners were very fast responding to any questions we had. Everything was labeled and very easy to find what we needed. They had everything you could ask for available for use. By far the best property we have every rented. We didn't want to leave! Hopefully one day soon we will be back. Worth every penny! Lots of memories made at this beautiful property!

About the host

Why they chose this property

This property is special because it is so private and surrounded by beautiful nature. It sits back on the 5 acre lot, and there are 20 acres of ponderosa pines around it. There are trails in Black Forest park which you can access at Holmes and Vessey Road, and are beautiful but also very safe and easy to navigate because of signs and a neighborhood they wind through called Cathedral Pines. It is a 4 mile loop. If you want to experience a 5 star hotel feeling in the mountains, but close to shops and great restaurants, this is the place for you.
