About this house rental
Step into a cozy one-bedroom cottage behind the main house on Bonfoy Avenue, a short walk from the Olympic Training Center. A king bed, a queen sofa bed, a kitchen stocked for real cooking, and a fenced backyard with a hammock, fire pit, gas grill and a hot tub shared with the main house make it easy to settle in. Your dog is welcome in the yard, and several restaurants are within walking distance. Honest note: no in-unit laundry, but a laundromat is nearby and we can arrange pickup.
The Space:
A quiet, simple place to land after a full day out, for a couple or a solo traveler with a dog. This one bedroom cottage sits a short walk from the Olympic Training Center: a private king bedroom, a full kitchen stocked for real cooking, and a fenced yard with a secluded hot tub out back. A breakfast spot sits right across the alley.

What guests tell us: the secluded hot tub is the part they remember, and they like knowing someone services it every week. Mornings are easy: coffee, then a short walk to the Training Center. Later they cook real meals in the stocked kitchen, fire up the gas grill (kept ready with two propane tanks), and end the night in the hammock or the hot tub. Two things we say up front: there is no washer or dryer in the cottage, and you enter through a private gated driveway off the alley behind the home, marked by a bright blue garage. Guests who know both first tell us the cottage is just what they hoped for.
Guest Access:
The whole cottage is yours: the bedroom, the bathroom, the full kitchen, and the living room. Parking is your own private, gated driveway just off the alley, directly next to the cottage, so there is no hunting for a street spot.
The yard is fully fenced and private, with a gated path to the rear patio where the hot tub sits. The hot tub is shared only with the main house at the front of the property, and there is no interior connection between the two. Please treat it as a shared amenity: rinse before getting in, towel off before heading indoors, keep voices low near the water, and leave it as you found it.
The Neighborhood:
You are in central Colorado Springs, in the Knob Hill area, a short walk (about 850 feet) from the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Training Center, with several restaurants within walking distance and a breakfast spot just across the alley. UCHealth Memorial Central is a few minutes up the road, an easy base for work trips or medical stays.
Downtown Colorado Springs and Tejon Street are a 7 minute drive, and the Pikes Peak region opens up from there: Garden of the Gods about 15 minutes, Old Colorado City around 12, and Manitou Springs with the Cog Railway close behind. This is a car-oriented area, so map your own routes.
Getting Around:
You can walk to the Training Center, and a few restaurants are within range, so the car can stay parked for part of the trip. Your parking is a private gated driveway off the alley behind the home: look for the bright blue garage, pull through the open gate, and park right next to the cottage. For the sights you will drive: downtown Colorado Springs about seven minutes, Garden of the Gods about fifteen, Old Colorado City about twelve, and the Colorado Springs Airport (COS) about fifteen. A laundromat is nearby for longer stays.
Other Things to Note:
A few notes up front, so nothing surprises you.
- There is no washer or dryer in the cottage. A laundromat is nearby, and for longer stays we can arrange a laundry pickup. If in-unit laundry is a must, this is not the right unit.
- You enter from the alley that runs behind and parallel to Bonfoy Avenue. A bright blue painted garage is the landmark, and the fence gate opens into your own private, gated driveway next to the cottage. A few guests found the alley unfamiliar at first, so we mention it up front: the space is fenced, gated, and private once you are in.
- It is a single-level home with no stairs.
- The bathroom is compact with a walk-in shower and limited shelf space. It is simple and clean, not large.
- The hot tub is shared with the main house behind you. Overlap is rare with only two units, but it can occasionally be in use.
- One exterior security camera sits above the front door. There are no interior cameras.
Interaction with Guests:
We answer quickly, and guests tell us the local food recommendations are worth asking for. We reply fast and otherwise leave you to your stay. Dogs are welcome here, so travel with yours. Week-long and month-long stays are welcome too, whether for work, a class, or a longer trip, so send your dates and we will put together a custom rate.
