This home is so lovely and the owner is absolutely amazing! I had to contact her several times with different questions and she was ALWAYS so kind and answered immediately. The home is clean and has an amazing back deck. There were lots of wonderful items provided when we arrived. Everything from coffee and creamer, to toothbrushes and salt water taffy. This is the most accommodating owner we have ever encountered. The beds were very comfortable and the neighbor nice and quiet. This is definitely within walking distance of some amazing trails and excellent shopping. On our last morning there, we saw a young deer in the front yard, which was the cherry on our weekend stay. We would 100% stay here again and HIGHLY recommend it.

Home away from home

Perfect accommodation for us, immediately feeling comfortable with a warm welcome from Kimberly. The area is within easy access to trails, restaurants and anyplace one wishes to visit. We drove the 1 hour 10 minute drive to Royal Gorge as well. Colorado is paradise and we hope to be back here at the Zen in the future.

Peace and Comfort at Zen at the Garden

We really enjoyed our stay at Zen at the Garden! Kimberly was there to great us when we checked in. She was hospitable and friendly. The neighborhood was quiet and the neighbors we met were friendly too. The house was clean and had Colorado character with all the decor. We especially liked sitting on the deck in the back of the house. The location of the house was minutes from Old Colorado City shops and restaurants and minutes from Garden of the Gods where we hiked. We definitely recommend this property and would stay here again!

Zen within Zen

We enjoyed the property very much. It was close to the location of our family, which made it extremely convenient. The double is adorable. The deck was my Zen space when we were there. Only two complaints… We actually needed air conditioning One of the nights we were there And the air conditioner in the bedroom did not open on its own. One of the bedrooms did not have an air conditioner and opening. The windows was not enough for that room. The other complaint is that some of the dishes were not clean in the cabinet. We had to sort through them to find dishes to use. Kimberly is a great host, communicates often, and makes check-in and check out processes. Extremely easy! We would definitely stay there again If we could get air conditioning in both bedrooms.

The location is great. The Garden of the Gods was 10 minutes away, Pikes Peak 15 minutes, Manitou Springs 10 minutes away. Place was very nice and tastefully decorated.
