Expansive Peak Views, 6BR House, Hot Tub, Near USAFA
About this house rental
Located in Black Forest, this charming house for R 3,408 per night is a great option for your next trip. Summary: This house has amazing sweeping views of Pikes Peak and the Front Range from the deck, kitchen and dining room. You can even see the Air Force Academy (USAFA) from the deck. The pictures can't do justice to the view. This house features 6 bedrooms, a great wrap around deck, large dining room, and two 4K TVs. Outside there is ample seating so you can take in the incredible views, a tetherball set, a fire pit, and a clean astroturf grassy backyard. This house is simply Legend-(wait-for-it)-ary! The Space: Layout: - 3 bedrooms upstairs - Open kitchen and dining room on main level, sweeping views of Pikes Peak and the Front Range. - Lower level has sitting area and 4K 55-inch TV, plus a wood-burning stove/fireplace and another bedroom. - Basement has 2 bedrooms, both with peak views. - Large wraparound deck provides peak views and plenty of space to just relax or grill out. - Lots of outside fun: tetherball in front, fire pit and clean astroturf "lawn" out back. Centrally located: - 2 minutes from Chapel Hills Mall with theater, restaurants, and shopping. - 5 minutes to South Gate of Air Force Academy - 15 minutes to Garden of the Gods and Downtown Colorado Springs - 25 minutes to COS Airport, 75 minutes to DIA Entertainment: highspeed internet, and two 4K Roku TVs for Netflix, Hulu, etc. Please no raging parties, but family get togethers, holiday celebrations, etc. are welcome as long as you clear it with us first. Due to a city ordinance and fire codes there can be no more than 14 people in this home at once, for any family get together, or holiday celebration. Please talk with us about your plans in our home prior to booking. Please let us know and keep parking to the driveway and garage since we're in a cul-de-sac (room for 8+ cars). Permit #: 0667 Guest Access: You'll have full access to the entire home, including the 2 car garage and backyard. We are located on a cul-de-sac so please be respectful of our neighbors and only park in the driveway and garage (can fit 6+ cars). The Neighborhood: The easy access to the interstate means just about everything is 15 minutes away or less. Having the Chapel Hills mall less than a mile away means you always have a failsafe, but there's also a ton of great options for food and entertainment within a 5 minute drive. This is one of the more versatile areas in the city. It has good proximity to the newer north end of town, and the interstate keeps downtown and Garden of the Gods just 15 minutes away. Getting Around: It's generally easiest to get around Colorado Springs by car. Uber and Lyft are both readily available in our experience (getting to DIA can be slightly challenging but is possible), and a rental is always easy. The interstate is a short 5 minute drive away. If you like to walk, the Chapel Hills mall is less than a mile away, and there's an elementary school with field and playground about 1/4 mile away. Interaction with Guests: We are available via messaging or phone/text to help with anything you need, we're located across town so you likely won't actually see us. Our friend Lindsey helps us with communication sometimes too!

No smoking on the property outside. The only reason we chose this place is because of the hot tub , but there is a camera watching you with motion detection. Even if you don’t move, the nosey owner turns it back on to watch you, washer and dryer don’t work. Don’t choose these people and this place. So many cameras that it makes u feel being watched.

The home is roomy and lovely for the area. There was a few things that didn't work and we notified the owner about. Wish the listing would have updated because some amenities didn't work and the fam was looking forward to using them. The yard could use a good clean up to help use the tether ball spot. Aside the bad, it was a very nice stay. Had almost everything we needed for our stay.

Clean, great views, suburban neighborhood. Don’t expect a Hilton experience. This house is more like a dated Best Western with poor quality cookware, linens, and furnishings. Propane Barbecue grill didn’t work, teeny college dorm microwave, cheap paper products and not enough for a 14 person week stay.

When we first entered the property we smelled a gas leak. Contacting the emergency number resulted in the fellow refusing to help. We had to contact the gas company ourselves. The outside of the property is a mess. The inside is filthy with ground in dirt on walls and furniture.and damaged appliances, fans, towel racks, carpet, doors are damaged as is the top on the hot tub.
Kitchen sink accessories were stained sticky and rusted. Cooking range was not cleaned for a long time. Curtains would not cover doors or windows, windows were not lockable and blinds were damaged and screens broken. TV would not function correctly...only a Roku remote was found and it did not work correctly. Electric sockets were loose and some not connected. Registers were rusted and extremely filthy. Lights over breakfast table would not work. Yard was full of weeds, cut brush piles and other debris. Deck floor was worn and table/chairs were unusable as was the grill.....even the basketball goal was hung crooked. Garage full of random junk and floor was filthy. WORST of all the utility room was full of debris, paint, and dirty floor causing a potential fire hazard. We left the cars outside so as not to smell them up. We have pictures of all this if needed. The view was as advertised fantastic but unenjoyable as per the above issues.

We booked this house for our stay in Colorado Springs for my nephews graduation. The house was perfect for the 12 people that stayes everyone had a room and their own space. There are two Tvs...and TREE bathrooms which was fantastic and very neeses for our large group...the location is absolutely convenient. It is right next to the mall, Wal-Mart, and many other places to eat and have fun. The views were absolutely the best. Pikes peak does not disappoint. Perfect for a large family nice large deck and a nice fire pit. We would definitely stay there again.
