About this house rental
Situated in Old Colorado City, this lovely house for R 6,061 per night is a great choice for your next vacation. Step into the past with a visit to this incredible custom ranch-style home, built with all the unique details of the iconic architect Frank Lloyd Wright. The brick exterior with monochromatic colors, a cleverly designed stack stone fireplace, and a rectangular picture window all add to the charm and character of this mid-century modern gem. It's truly a part of an era when stylish, simple Usonian-style small houses were designed for the middle-class American family's way of life. Think big band music, cool furniture, community gatherings, and wholesome family times. The home is located on a beautiful corner lot, with views of Pikes Peak and Garden of the Gods, and just a short walk to charming Old Colorado City, full of shops, restaurants, and parks. With so many attractions just a short drive away, this home is the perfect place to experience all the great things that Colorado has to offer. Outdoors, a sunny and bright patio is perfect for soaking in the 320 annual days of sunshine. Inside, you'll find an updated mid-century modern kitchen bathed in natural light, with a wood-burning fireplace in the living room. The master suite and two other bedrooms are located on the main floor. The basement serves as a family-friendly entertainment zone, boasting a wet bar, big screen TV, and the perfect place for a game of ping pong. There's also a full-size clothes washer and dryer, and there's plenty of parking too! This beautiful house offers a trip down memory lane, back to a simpler time and a way of living that many of us still cherish today. It's a 45-minute scenic drive to Cripple Creek, travel 50 miles further west over some of the most beautiful Colorado Mountain passes and you'll arrive in Summit County. The ski towns of Breckenridge, Keystone, Frisco, Dillon, and Copper Mountain are great places to ski in the winter and enjoy the mountain hospitality and serenity that abounds. Red Rocks Amphitheater and Fiddler's Green concert are in nearby Denver and host some of the world's finest musicians.

Our family enjoyed our pre-holiday stay immensely! From ping pong, card games to football game watching while in the hot tub with the outdoor fireplace roaring, we also enjoyed the close proximity to a grocery store, North Pole and a charming Italian restaurant, Paravicinis, nearby. We had a relaxing and memory making time. Highly recommend this place! In fact, we plan to make it an annual getaway!

Our hiking group of 7 adults stayed here. This is a beautiful house in a nice neighbourhood and very close to all stores/restaurants. The host is very friendly and we would definitely rent this house again in our future trips.

Our family of 5 had a great stay in Old Colorado City. Location was convenient to everything we wanted to do in Colorado Springs and Manitou Springs. House was clean and well-stocked with lots of sleeping options. My son loved the ping pong table and cornhole. Communication with Nancy was quick and easy - she was extremely responsive and accommodating.

This home and Nancy impressed us right away. Great communication!
We were in town for a wedding, and couldn't resist staying here for our base. The views out the front are amazing from the front patio or inside. The outside back patio was amazing as well, and great to listen to and enjoy the rain showers.
The home was as clean as you can get! The main bedroom had a comfortable bed and nice bathroom. The AC works great in every room.
There is NOTHING I would change about this home, except I would own it! :) This home is so relaxing, with the Garden rocks one way, and Pikes Peak the other way. You can even see the highway, and the lights going each way. Watch the rain move in. Enjoy the cool breeze and no mosquitoes (when we were there, but a few black flies that thought I was juicy). Great location but little traffic.

We had the MOST amazing time at this house. Nancy is absolutely wonderful!
The house is perfect! The kids had a blast and had the whole downstairs to themselves which made these momma’s real happy. Haha!
Hot tub and fireplace while watching TV at night was “chefs kiss”.
The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed to make all the food our foodie hearts could make.
It was an easy walk down to the main strip of Old Colorado City.
10/10 would recommend and planning to stay again!

Nancy’s property was the perfect home for our stay. It was my 85 year old grandmother, my two kids (13 and 9) and myself. The home is located on a quiet street, a few blocks to the strip and about 10 min to Manitou and Springs. Nancy called prior to our arrival and was in constant communication to ensure all was good. The hot tub was on and ready for us when we arrived which was much appreciated after the long drive. The backyard is awesome and used every day as well as the ping pong table. Nancy has thought of every detail and was a very pleasant host to interact with. I highly recommend.

From the moment I walked in to this house I knew we made the right decision staying here! I have never stayed in a cleaner home! The beds were comfortable, the kitchen well stocked, the location was perfect and wood stacked ready for us to settle down listen relax to music sit in the hot tub right next to the outdoor fireplace.
Thank you for your attention to details and teaching out to let is know you we’re available if we needed anything.

This was a very nice, and spacious home. We enjoyed sitting out front of the house in the mornings; along with picnicking out back of the house in the evenings. The ping-pong table and poker table was a fun added benefit!

We drove up from Texas to escape the heat and let our girls (ages 5, 7, 9) explore the mountains. The property is set up very nicely both inside and out, with plenty of sitting areas (including a great view from the front) and amenities to enjoy. Our girls especially enjoyed the basement with ping pong table and other games. Many nights were spent roasting s'mores over the fire on the back patio. However, the best part of the whole stay were the owners next door. Nancy and Al were incredibly warm and welcoming, gave us great advice on things to do in the area, and were just fantastic hosts overall. The setup, location, and next door "local guides" made for a fantastic time. We will definitely look to stay here again when we come back!

The kitchen in this property was stocked! Absolutely fantastic. All the beds were comfy and the outdoor patio was lovely in the rain. The retro vide was done great and I have never been in a place so clean. The only thing I would improve or be aware of is seating for eating. The barstools are so tall they don’t really work with the counter. So we all found chairs and balanced our plates. Not the end of the world- but something to be aware when you book it.

Finding nature in town!!
We had a wonderful stay! We were close to the downtown area for shopping and eating. We were also surprised that we had so much interaction with nature so close to town. Great areas to gather outside and the owner lives next door so they were very attentive during our stay. We had fun playing ping pong downstairs!! We would stay here again.

The property was spacious for all of us to come together yet have room to ourselves. The outdoor fireplace is perfect for keeping warm at night, sharing stories and memories, and making yummy s’mores! The game room is fantastic fun and entertainment for the evening after a day out exploring! The owners were so nice and attentive to helping us figure out this new age of cable TV for the football game in the background. Great rental and owners!

Nancy was a great hostess!! Very responsive and very friendly. The house was very clean and well equipped. The home is quite large with a lot of space for many guests and is a fun mix of mid-century modern with updated bathrooms and kitchen. Great location too! Very close to Garden of the Gods, Air Force Academy and Old Colorado City. We loved the outdoor space and drinking coffee in the morning and wine in the evening while looking at the mountains. Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. Thank you Nancy!

This was a nice property. I felt the price was a bit high considering there was some damage to the brick and concrete walkways on the property as well as the way the interior cooling units were set up-- on one of the bedroom windows, the blinds couldn't be closed properly due to this. Overall, we enjoyed the space of the property and our stay there. I would recommend it for those with a large family. The location was nice and close to a lot of places to eat and visit. Nice patio out in the front of the house. We met the owners and they were very nice.

Close to Garden of the Gods ( have a view from front patio), and the Zoo. Also a great view of Pikes Peak from front patio. The drive to Cripple Creek is about 45 minutes, a beautiful drive. The space in the house is perfect for all. We had a great time playing board games and ping pong in the basement, to eating our meals at the table on the front patio,or just taking in the view. I would definitely stay again.
