Very good

Our stay was great. Lots of room on a quiet lot. Lots of wildlife in the area. A black bear walked past while we were having dinner one evening! What fun to see that. Housekeeping could be improved. We cleaned bathrooms and floors upon arrival.
The house was clean, warm and welcoming. The property has a beautiful view from the wrap around porch. The host was very nice and accommodating. Our family enjoyed staying at this property.
The house was amazing. Thank you for an amazing trip!

Wonderful place to stay.
We spent Thanksgiving here with family and really enjoyed ourselves. We liked the number of bedrooms and also the large living room that had more than 1 place to gather in a group depending on what you wanted to do. We will be back!
Everything was great. There is limited water supply that we didn't know about, but once we got that figured out, it was manageable. Being from the city, we don't have limited water usage- so it really helps put things into perspective..
The group loved the cabin and great area. Plenty of room to relax, spread out, and enjoy the mountains while being with friends. The cabin was clean, roomy and comfy. Robyn was a great host. Definitely will be back.

Liked: Check-in, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
The location was perfect. The house had a wonderful layout for a large group like ours. The decor was charming. However, it was not very clean. Things were sticky, upstairs bathroom tub was gross. The pull-out sofa bed in the basement had mouse droppings on it and sounded like mice were either inside or under the couch/bed. Another basement bedroom had sheets that were covered with what looked like dead fleas and there was a strong smell of urine on the floor. The wrap around deck is in great need of upkeep. The boards are rotten, the railing was loose, and we did not feel like it was safe to be on.
The house is very roomy and there is lots of room for several! The highway is next to the house but it wasn’t a bother at all. Even sitting on the front porch! The only negative I would have is there is only one tv to watch local channels and the other tvs will play dvds. The water supply is a concern but not a big bother! I totally enjoyed my stay and would stay again.

Big home
Our group of 12 stayed here July 4th. We fit easily. The adjustable beds were a blessing. The LARGE living area and kitchen were a nice hang out. There is no a/c here, but we didn't really need it...it just didn't get that hot (maybe only 1 afternoon). Owner was helpful and went above and beyond to meet our needs. I appreciate Robyn's efforts. This location is 1 min. from Charis Bible College - if you are going there. It was so convenient.
It is a lovely property. If you are looking for a party house this is it. It has obviously been used for parties by the smell of beer cigarettes and other unknown odors. If you don't mind old & thread bare linens and 10 year old towels you will love it. In addition, be prepared to clean and disinfect before you sit down & for sure don't lay on the beds. If you are allergic to pets you should reconsider because there is dog hair everywhere including the bed upstairs. We paid for 2 nights but only stayed the first night and ended up at the Wyndham down the road because I could not breath. I am not a snob and have stayed at some funky places around the world but nothing like this.
Spacious cabin, great for a big crew. Overall, great bang for byck.
Lots of space for our large family visiting the area. We loved the layout and there were more than enough sleeping accomodations. Pretty clean but had a few areas that looked like it could use a deep clean (ie. kitchen ceiling fan). Wonderful living room area and great TV. The cabin was a little dark with some bulbs out. Loved all the windows and the view of the beautiful aspen trees and mountains in the distance. Kitchen and dining was ideal for a big group. It was nice to stay in the mountains and away from the city while still feeling pretty close to everything (15-45 min drives). The owner was easy to reach and very responsive to any questions or needs. It may not be a luxury home, but is probably why it is reasonably priced. I feel it was a good value and overall great experience. Would definitely select this again if the occasion were to arise.
Nearly died of smoke inhalation and no heat or power. Had to buy an extension cord for a heater and run it to another area with a better breaker. We were limited on showers and no way to check water level. The owner said to start the wood stove for heat. It was plugged so smoke all over the house. Cooking range smelled like cat urine when we started it for our Christmas dinner. All the owner kept saying she was sorry and never offered a refund even when we asked her several time
The owner is very, very nice and quick to communicate with you on anything you need and even gave us suggestions for things to see and places to eat. My family (myself, husband, two teenage daughters, and my dad) stayed for four nights. We were very comfortable with all of us having large bedrooms with comfortable beds to stay in. The living room and kitchen are very large and updated and we were able to spread out but still be together. The morning view of the sunrise over the mountains through her aspen and pine trees is something I’ll remember forever. There are a few more negative reviews here. I’m here to say that we had a great time and we’re comfortable!! One note is that you do have to watch your water usage. We did not have any issue with this and we have teenage daughters who love a good shower. Some people might find this a hinderance but we did not. This home was lovely for our vacation to Colorado Springs. We enjoyed the 20 minute drive to Manitou Springs (where the majority of tourist attractions are). It was refreshing to go back to a quiet, cute town each evening. Thank you Robyn for a lovely stay!
When you check in, you don’t expect to have to clean the toilets and vacuum immediately on arrival. On top of being hit in the face with the overwhelming stench of pet urine. There were dishes left in the dishwasher, dirty bedding in a garbage bag in the closet, the only thing that was (hopefully) cleaned, was the bedding. The showers were even dirty. There was garbage scattered around the front yard. There were 2 mattresses sitting sideways in the downstairs family room. Contacted the host complete with pictures, and was told she could only reimburse the cleaning fee?! I’m sorry, but I didn’t go on vacation to clean someone else’s mess. We didn’t even stay at the house very much because of the smell. There was no air conditioning, and a sign not to open windows. Also a note to take 5 minute showers to conserve water!
I think a big thing the owner needs to realize is that rental properties are becoming more and more undesirable compared to hotels. This house is a good example why. It lacked many features that a standard hotel will have, e.g. hot running water, clean sheets, comfortable climate temperature, and no controlling/ threatening notes throughout the place. My boyfriend and I stayed here for NYE. Check in was quick and easy. However, the temperature was 50 degrees when we walked in and it was hard to locate the thermostat. We couldn’t take our coats off for a solid couple of hours because it was so cold. The rules are to have the thermostat at 50 after leaving, but we felt arriving upon a cold house was an unwelcome start. No soap in any of the bathrooms except one used bar of soap with pubes on it. There is a nice bathtub on the upstairs level that we were excited to take a nice relaxing bath in. However, upon filling up the bathtub not even 1/4 of the way full, it was ice cold. So we boiled our own water in the kitchen to try to heat up the bathtub. I cannot imagine how many cold showers guests would take with more than 2 people in the house..
the controlling notes throughout the house indicated to us that the owner doesn’t want to make upgrades, rather have the people abide by the subpar standards of the house. The basement has a note on the window threatening to charge guests if they were to open the window that’s apparently broken. There are notes saying showers can only last five minutes… (obviously avoiding the weird water heater situation and putting the blame on the renter) And the owner says there is a $500 fee if we lose the house key. Does she not have a copy of the key? Why would it be so expensive if we lose a metal key? Because of the frugality of the owner, it appears that she’s taking advantage of anything you possibly do that might cost her a couple bucks extra for your stay. I am allergic to dogs, and I could not stop sneezing and could barely breathe all night. And I broke out in hives because of the bedsheets. Leaving me with the impression that they were not properly cleaned.
The advice I would give is to spend a little bit of money fixing the problems throughout the house, and don’t charge renters for naturally using broken features throughout the house. Notes are not the solution, fixing the amenities are.
Very spacious. Loved the location. Great communication by the owner.

The house itself was nice. The communication was decent. The grass was knee height and dog poop all over the yard so the yard was not usable. There was dog hair all over the floor when we checked in. The house has a fixed amount of water and depending on how much water is in the tank is how much water you can use. The owner recommends five minute showers. The washer was not usable. Priced way to high for the amenities we were offered.
