We absolutely loved the stay here. Norm and Monique could not have been more accommodating. Monique’s continental breakfast was beautifully presented and DELICIOUS!! It was much more than a “continental breakfast”. Great place for your dog too. They had a large food and water bowel awaiting your pet. They even had a bed for them. The VRBO was comfortable and roomy and had everything you would need and if it didn’t you could contact Norm and he would get it.The view and patio are to die for, just sit down, relax and take it all in! A place we hope to visit again!

I had a wonderful experience at this property. The hosts were incredibly kind and quick to respond. The property was very clean on check in and had plenty of room and beautiful views. I had planned a gathering during our duration here and I found that the hosts were very accommodating and easy to communicate with. Would definitely consider booking this stay again!

Beautiful home - Like staying with family
Overall, we were pleased with our stay. The hosts are kind and gracious. The continental breakfast with fresh, warm muffins, deli meat, fruit, and cheese was more than enough each day. The basement suite is well appointed and had some high end touches we appreciated. We felt as if we were staying in the basement of family as we were welcomed as such but can also hear all of the every day life activities going on upstairs (kitchen, phone calls, meal conversations, drawers, dog, etc). It would be impossible not to hear eachother so there isn't a feeling of separation or privacy if you are looking for that. There are saloon type doors at the top of the basement stairs separating the two areas. The bed was very comfortable but sleep was a little tough with some noise from upstairs. Absolutely lovley humans and beautiful home. We were disappointed to miss out on the back patio space the last morning due to pest control being on site and warning us to stay in after dousing the patio area with spray. We saw ZERO evidence of any bugs during our stay; it was just a bummer to have that going on in the last hour before check out. Similar to inside, you will hear and see the owners outdoors tending to this beautiful property, riding the mower/ tractor, and going about daily life. The dog, Beau, is a friendly face as well. Overall, a wonderful place with a lovely host. Just be aware ahead of time what it means to have owners on site and adjust your expectations accordingly.

Peaceful & beautiful
Loved our stay at Norm & Monique’s place! A beautiful large walkout with lots of space and a backyard with a view of Pikes Peak. A comfy bed and nicely appointed bathroom & kitchen.. Kitchen has all you need and they brought us a delicious breakfast each morning with more than enough food to start the day. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to visit again in the future.

"La Petite Foret Noire" perfect in every way!
The beauty & detail of this property did not go unnoticed! Wonderful space with everything we possibly could need. Our Hosts Norm & Monique were friendly, helpful & most accommodating! We were 30 minutes from our family, which made things easy for us! We look forward to returning!

Best experience
A short review seems minimal compared to the awesome experience my family had staying here. The hosts were more than accommodating. They brought coffee to my family every morning. This is more of a bed and breakfast rather than your typical rentals. The home is spacious and comfortable, the view is beyond spectacular. Don’t hesitate to book.
