This place was perfect! It was just me who stayed the night, but in the evening, we had a fun outdoor dinner party for my birthday! Amanda was so nice and accommodating. She was so helpful along the way. Beautiful property and area of town. You can tell she works hard to make it perfect. Check out that clawgoot tub! And the beds were so comfy. And all of the trinkets are so cute and perfect for space! Perfect if you like cute spaces and plants. And chickens! Loved being near the chickens. Overall, great birthday weekend and getaway! Cant wait to stay here again!

The coziest stay in the perfect location!

We chose this property because we love the mountain town feel, but this home specifically was the first time I’ve ever felt “at home” on a trip! Amanda is amazing and available. She answered any questions we had immediately and was even gave suggestions on things to do close by because she is so knowledgeable on what’s in the area. My kids loved seeing the chickens, humming birds and deer every day. The view of the mountain behind the house is stunning! The house was so clean, and I am usually so picky with my kids being young, but it was spotless. I had everything I needed to make meals, plenty of towels and bedding and it was so nice to be able to do laundry. My husband and I enjoyed having our coffee out on the deck in the quiet mornings. The home is decorated so intentionally and we just felt so cozy and safe in this home! If you are visiting Colorado Springs area and want to stay in a place where you actually feel like you’re in the mountains but close to town, stay at this house!

We had our another memories to treasure our first time family trip to Spring,Colorado.We our happy and enjoyed every moment of it especially the views and our stay in your place. The solemnity of the place and experience the farm life,enjoyed every sounds of chicken and river flowing,beautiful flowers and the weather. I highly recommended and appreciated the host, thank you so much for being part of our June vacation get away.

Palmer Lake is a beautiful area and this is the cutest property! We enjoyed watching the wildlife right out the front window, had fun feeding the chickens and going for walks with our dogs. Amanda was very accommodating and easy to work with.
