Interior (great) vs Exterior (needs attention) / Good location
The interior of the house matches the pictures online and I will say the inside of the house is very nice and modern. The exterior of the house needs some attention. Tall weeds and just general neglect made sitting the backyard not much of an option. Would not take much to make better. We are a family that is typically on the go so the exterior didn't dampen our trip.Positives -Modern appliances (including laundry)Large TV's with streamingSmart HomeComfortable bedsCleanSpacious roomsLocation to restaurants, shops, highways, and USAFA3 bathroomsGarageNegatives -Exterior yard neglectBasement is separate rental (discuss with owner)Frig ice maker was not workingPositives definitely outweigh the few negatives. Would stay there again.- Craig

Great place in Colorado Springs
The house was very clean and well maintained. The location was great, close to the Air Force Academy and I-25. The host responded promptly to our questions. The backyard and patio were nice, but there were only 2 chairs on the patio.
The basement is rented as a separate unit with its own entrance and you will have to share the laundry room and garage, but we had no problems with that.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Great Location
The first level was very open and had plenty of room when we wanted a night to recover from being tourists.
The sites were all very close. We were never more than 45 minutes from: Garden of the Gods, Renaissance Fair, Castle Rock, cave of the winds, Cog Railway to Pikes Peak, and the list goes on.
Hosts were responsive when needed (which wasn't very often). Would stay here again.

Colorado Springs stay
My stay in Colorado Springs was amazing! The place is located in residential, yet vibrant area, close to Whole Foods, large shopping mall and US Air Force Academy. The house is well decorated, very clean and well taken care of. I came for a short visit to see my boyfriend; both of us enjoyed the place. Great mountain views, fresh air and hiking trails within 10 minutes drive made my stay wonderful!
I would definitely visit again!
