5 Stars with a few inconveniences
Overall this was a terrific property, exactly as described, with comfortable beds, fantastic outdoor space, a great hot tub, and almost everything we needed for our stay including quite a few extras (eg. coffee grounds were there, spices, some snacks, etc.) The house is charming with lots of personality and we really enjoyed the shared living spaces.
The inconveniences:
1)There were exactly ten forks, and we had exactly ten people, so we bought some plastic forks to supplement. I do think they should invest in a second set of silverware to supplement for serving purposes (pickles etc), or so that there is extra silverware when the dishwasher is running, etc.
2) There were no bathmats. I don't enjoy getting water all over the bathroom floor.
3) The firepit was not working. This was a big disappointment, as we were really looking forward to using it and to making s'mores. We did contact management and they responded promptly and came to look at it within a few hours, but they were unable to fix it during our stay. They left us a bag of ice pops as compensation (not really a good substitute for s'mores and a working fire pit, but the gesture was appreciated).
4) I think guests should know that the bedroom in the basement is not very private. It is open to the small laundry area as well as the foosball and there are windows that let light in. So to play foosball you have to be in that person's space, and to do laundry you want to make sure you schedule it around their sleep.

Thankful for a great stay
We rented this house over the Thanksgiving holiday. The kitchen was well stocked and had ample space to cook a nice meal. The dining room was also great to gather and eat. The kids enjoyed the hot tub and making s’mores in the fire pit. The beds and pillows were comfortable, and we all slept very well each night. Our dogs enjoyed the large backyard too. The location was close to downtown and great restaurants. We really enjoyed the home and are thankful for lovely holiday memories.

Perfect spot for work travel
We were in town for a conference and found it more affordable to rent a house where we could all stay. This house was perfect with 5 bedrooms! However the bedroom in the basement is a little harder to get to with steep stairs so I’m glad we didn’t need it. The house is clean and updated. Even though it’s old, it was not dusty or musty! Perks included coffee and lots of towels! The manager responded immediately to any emails. Though we didn’t get to use the hot tub or firepit, the set up was great! I really wish we hadn’t worked so hard so we had more time to enjoy the house! One complaint- it’s hard to find at night! The directions don’t say “turn down the alley” which is what we would call it in the south. 😛

Weekend in Colorado Springs
The house is very convenient to everything you would want or need to do in CSP. The management company was easy to deal with and quick to respond to inquiries
The interior is clean and has all the amenities you would need. Be careful how many adults, we had 8, you have in your party as the house only has two and a half baths for the five bedrooms. The half bath is under the stairs so it is a little tight, and one of the full baths is in the 1st floor bedroom. We had six adults in the three bedrooms upstairs sharing the one full bath, which was challenging at times. For the summer months, only the second floor has AC. It was not too hot while we were there and the first floor was comfortable w/o AC, except for the bedroom which got a little stuffy.
I would rent this property again, but will a smaller number of guests.

Excellent Location and Plenty of Space
This house was perfect for our family of 7 (4 adults, 2 teens, and 1 child), with plenty of room for everyone. The location was excellent, with easy access to Old Colorado City, Garden of the Gods, and the highway.
The bedrooms were roomy, and the queen size beds were EXTREMELY comfortable. Plenty of pillows and additional throw blankets were available. The washer and Dryer looked brand-new, and they provided laundry detergent and dryer sheets. Coffee was also available in the kitchen, along with tea and hot cocoa packets.
Our family enjoyed the backyard space, and were surprised to find several out-door games like cornhole and croquet.
I would definitely recommend this property for those visiting the Colorado Springs area.

Great stay in a beautiful home
We loved our stay here! Upon arrival, our family of 4 entered a warm, cozy retreat that was very thoughtfully equipped. Potential needs were anticipated with a kitchen stocked with disposable cups, snacks and coffee supplies. There were also plenty of towels and toiletries. Our stay was super comfortable and the hot tub was just what we needed.
The automated check-in process could probably use a bit more streamlining, as there were a couple of instances of missed communication.
Loved the house and would definitely stay again!

Cozy Couples - Colorado Springs
My wife and I, and 2 other couples we are close with (including a baby) loved our stay. The quaint little Victorian house has a really nice interior, with an A+ kitchen. They had spices and all of the cooking appliances you could need, which made it not only easy, but fun each morning for our group. It's a little tight for 6+ people, but there are sleeping options for everyone, with some of the most comfortable beds I've ever experienced at a rental property. The doors don't lock inside the house (deadbolts on front and back door are fine), so while that didn't bother our group, keep that in mind if privacy is a big concern with the people you stay with. Nice little living room that we spent a lot of time in, and a really nice dining room table that was great to have. While it was a little less enjoyable in the winter, the back yard is great with seating and space, and also fenced for a dog. The hot tub is phenomenal, and we really appreciated that. However, the neighbor did not. Be aware that there's a grumpy neighbor, and while we were probably out a little late, just talking outside drew them out to shut us up.
The location is also really great. It's tucked into a nice little neighborhood, and is close to any store you would need to stock-up at. We went to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo (highly recommend), and it was only about 15 minutes away, and I don't think Garden of the Gods is much further than that.
Overall, we had a great experience, and the hosts were extremely easy to communicate with. I'd recommend for any small group, especially if it is a close group of friends that don't mind some close quarters.

Cozy old home with all the updates and ammenities
4 kids, my wife, and I had a terrific week of R&R, hiking, and rafting thanks to this beautifully updated 5-bedroom home. All the bedrooms are rooms, each with a standard double bed. The roomy hot tub is a great way to end the day. We used the grill for two dinners. The location-- two blocks from Colorado College-- and the comfy quarters make for a great visit. We hope to be back.
