The house was everything we expected from the listing. Our family of 8 had room to spread out and enjoy our time without feeling cramped. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed to make some delicious meals.The location was perfect with an amazing view, and plenty of outdoor seating for cool mornings and evenings. The night sky was an awesome display of God’s wonders! There was a hiking trail right out the back door which the kids enjoyed.It was a short drive to many attractions including the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, The Flying W Ranch, Pikes Peak and the Colorado Springs Farmer’s Market!
Perfect family and pet-friendly home in a beautiful setting. Well appointed and newer home made our family vacation memorable, relaxing, and thoroughly enjoyable.
