WALLS OF GLASS! Mountain top apartment, panoramic mt. views and city lights.

Imagine yourself on a private mountaintop with an enormous view, larger than Rhode Island. Then add a luxurious apartment with walls of glass to take in the scenic outlook views. You will gaze upon the actual "purple mountains" and "fruited plains" that inspired the writing of America The Beautiful.
This is a very unique property, located on a cliff, about 800' higher than the city with a 360 degree view. It consists of a fully private, nicely decorated luxury apartment located on the lower level of the house (owners live on top floor) with 2 private entrances (it is not a basement). There are actually 2 suites divided by a common hallway (like 2 hotel rooms across the hall from each other), One suite contains a master bed/bath, full kitchen and the living area. The other suite has 1 bedroom, a full bath, and a living area with a queen sofa bed. Sleeps six. Altogether there are 2 bedrooms with queen beds, a queen sleeper sofa (full thickness matress), and 2 full baths and over 1600 sq. ft. of living space. Amenities include free Wifi, 55" and three 32" TVs with Roku and cable, DVD, full kitchen, Keurig Kcup and drip brewers, master suite, carport, outdoor patio table, charcoal grill, hair dryer, iron and ironing board, W/D, and many more. There is also a Level 2 EV charger available
You will be within 5 - 10 minutes from the Broadmoor, Ft. Carson, the world famous zoo, Seven Falls, the World Arena, and the beautiful Cheyenne Canyon where you can drive or hike through gorgeous alpine country. There are 2 grocery stores, plus Sam's and Walmart within 2 miles. Also, the Air Force Academy is 20 mins, away.
Please note that my wife and I live on the top floor of the house and we are available 24/7 to make sure that our guests have a first class, trouble free experience while staying here. 420 friendly.

We had a wonderful stay in Colorado Springs! The views were spectacular of the mountains and the city including the garden of the gods in the distance! Our hosts Gary and Janet were the nicest and made us feel right at home! We highly recommend staying here!

Great base for exploring the area.

This was our first visit to CO, so first visit to Colorado Springs, too. This property proved to be a great launchpad for exploring the local area and also driving further out, with good access to the mountains. The host was communicative and helpful, onsite (floor above) too, so very accessible. Perhaps a little unusual (but clearly stated in the listing), the hosts live in the 2nd floor and part of the VRBO is a share access corridor which is used to move between to spaces on the ground floor. The hosts were very respectful of that space during our entire stay. We only saw them when we needed to see them, aside from discreetly heading out to just get on with their day-to-day. We stayed over the Xmas period and the host went above on beyond by providing an Xmas tree and festive lights. Dedicate parking, full kitchen, our teen boy having his own bedroom, bathroom and TV lounge...and the great views from the elevated situation of the property, all contribute to a successful package.

Location & views cannot be beat!

This home is everything that is advertised in the listing. The location is wonderful and is within 15-25 minutes of all major sites you'll want to see here in Colorado Springs. The views of the mountains during the day & views of the city lights at night simply cannot be beat anywhere!! Host & his wife are wonderful and we felt very much at home during our stay. We would definitely stay here again.

We had a great stay at the Cliff House -- loved having three bedrooms and two baths, and the views from the house were amazing. The house was also close to many amenities and hiking areas.

Stunning Views

This very well maintained and clean property is in a very nice neighborhood outside of the city of Colorado Springs. Views are like in the descriptions and are expansive. You can even see the Garden of the Gods in the distance. The owner, Gary was very nice and helpful. We enjoyed eating at a restaurant they recommended that was NOT a tourist trap. The kitchen is well stocked with spices and other basics. They even had a cooler we could borrow! Great location for quite views and as a base to tour the area. Would definitely stay again.

Spectacular Location

The location of this property is truly spectacular! The hilltop views extend for miles below to the north, east, and south, and the mountains provide a beautiful view to the west. We spent every late afternoon and evening on the patio enjoying the changing colors of the sky as the sun descended and set, and then marveling at the emergence of miles of city lights. Gary is a welcoming and attentive host. The apartments are well maintained, comfortable and well equipped. We have rented VRBO properties for years, and we enjoyed our stay at this one more than almost any other.

We LOVED the cliff house!

We had a quick little girls’ weekend getaway to the Springs with a coworker who was in from the UK. We wanted her to see the beautiful mountains, and experience Colorado hospitality, and the cliff house did not disappoint! I am going to miss mornings on the patio enjoying the breeze and the view! The place was beautiful, and though the owners lived upstairs, we still felt like we had our own safe space. And, Gary made sure we knew about the living arrangements after I booked and was willing to cancel if we did not feel comfortable with the arrangement, which was great. Gary was a lovely and helpful host and we definitely look forward to coming back. It was great for a girls’ weekend and I am looking forward to coming with my partner and our friends as well.

Nice place with good outdoor area

We had a short weekend in the springs, this place worked well for us. The owner is upstairs, but we were not bothered. Gary was very attentive and friendly. The 2 rooms are like 2 masters, but the stairway to upstairs (owners space) is open to our hallway between rooms which was a bit odd. Maybe a door at the bottom of the stairs would provide more privacy. Overall we enjoyed our stay, had a private patio and nice accommodations, for a good price.

We very much enjoyed our stay. Gary greeted us upon arrival, gave us a tour, tips on the places we had planned to see and made suggestions for places that might not have been in the tourist info. He was available to answer questions but otherwise we didn't know he was there. The apartment was well stocked and the views are amazing. The sunrise is worth setting an alarm to see. We would definitely stay here again!
