This house is very close to Pike's Peak and Mannitou Incline so it was perfect for our hiking vacation. It's a sweet little house with character, lovely furnishings and a beautiful yard where we enjoyed eating breakfast. We had 4 adults in our group and it was a great size. It would be a little tight for 6 adults, and 2 would have to walk through another bedroom to get to their bedroom, but the third room would be a perfect room for children.

10.0 / 10.0

The Emerald Nest was a great choice for my 2 adult children and myself to stay 3 nights in Colorado Springs, from Minnesota. With a grocery store right across the street, we were able to comfortably use the kitchen and dining room to host a dinner for another son, his wife, and their 3 children. All were impressed by the home, saying "good choice", "great place", "so fun", "we'll have to stay longer next time!"We used the front porch each morning to have coffee and plan our days. We were entertained by a doe and 2 fawns in the back yard! We enjoyed the Red Rock Canyon Open Area, visited my son's home, and watched his kids play recreational football while there.Everyone now has a reference point for future stays in the area, and I'll plan on staying in the Emerald Nest when I return for visits. Thanks, Cindy!

8.0 / 10.0

The house was cute, charming, clean and nicely decorated. The front porch was nice and enjoyable in the evenings. The view of the mountains was nice, in the evenings as the sun goes down, you can see all the lights start to show up on the mountain side. It was magical. Everything was easy to find in the house, and the snacks were very thoughtful. The downfall of the house, is the air conditioning. There is a small fan in the bedroom I plugged into the front room to circulate the air from the unit, to try to help. We also closed the bedroom door a little to get that room to cool with that unit. This helped quite a bit. We couldn’t sit outback because of the overgrown sunflowers next to every sitting area, that is an easy fix just remove the plants next to the chairs, the grill and the fire pit. I am 100% sure if I would have called Cindy this would have been taken care of. Overall it was an enjoyable stay, we would stay again, and I have already recommended this house to a few friends.

It was the perfect location. The owner was very accessible. My son forgot his glasses and she responded immediately and mailed them the next day! The garden was so fun and the house was perfect for us, couldn’t have asked for more!

Truly enjoyed my stay here. The garden out back is adorable. It was nice to sit outside and be comfortable. The kitchen is small but perfect for a couple of days stay. The location is perfect. Especially to visit the local sites and restaurants. Check in and out are easy. The beds and furniture are comfortable. Left here feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. .

8.0 / 10.0

My family and I really enjoyed our stay here at the Emerald Nest. The location is convenient to get to many things down town and is pretty close to the Garden of the Gods as well. It is an older house but the upkeep is well done. We learned to keep the fans on full boar at night in conjunction with the AC units in each room. Had a bit of a problem with one of the AC units at night but Cindy was helpful as we worked to resolve it. Overall, a good stay.

8.0 / 10.0

Neighborhood location a bit concerning with homeless population across street.No washer dryer but listed washer dryer. Place really only sleeps 4-5 not 6-8 as listed.

10.0 / 10.0

This little historic home exceeded all our expectations. The host was amazing, and made check incredibly easy. With walking distance to Garden of the Gods and a five minute minute drive to both Manitou Springs and Old Colorado City, we couldn't have asked for a better location. Highly recommended!

10.0 / 10.0

This is an older house that retains all the charm, but has any updates you need. The kitchen has windows on two sides, adding to the cottage feel. The living room is comfortable and the bedrooms are plenty large with lovely nature inspired decor. The beds were very comfortable. There is plenty of outdoor seating and a fire pit in the yard. There was a gas grill which we used once. The location was convenient to our daughter’s house and not far from downtown and restaurants. It’s also close to Garden of the gods and the town of Manitou Springs.

10.0 / 10.0

This house was just right for our visit to Colorado Springs. The front porch was a great spot for hanging out, and the back yard would have been as well if it hadn't been rainy. Everything was as nice as the descriptions and photos showed. I would gladly stay there again.

We absolutely loved this property from the moment we walked in. It is an incredibly welcoming,cute place to stay with a great location. Parking was really convenient as well. It was great to have so many options for restaurants, along with a grocery store for items needed. The only suggestions I have are that there would be more than 2 small trash cans in the house. Also, it would be nice to have a bit more privacy in the back yard to the neighbors on the right side of the property. We had absolutely no issues, however, it was very difficult to tell where the property lines were, and we didn't want to be a bother. These are just very, very minor things, and would not change my mind for recommending / staying at this property again. Thank you for sharing your nest with us!! :)

The location was great with easy access to all the sites we planned to see while we were in Colorado Springs. The home is older, the beds were comfortable, the flowers in the backyard are beautiful but the bees liked them too and the individual air-conditioning units were adequate but if you like it cold for sleeping it might not be enough.

10.0 / 10.0

Charming cozy cottage. Very clean and had everything we needed for a comfy stay. Close to everything we wanted to do. Between Old Colorado city and manitou springs which were very cute , quaint towns. Only complaint if I had one is it’s on a very busy street and we could hear cars and motorcycles all night. But really didn’t affect us much. Beautiful views of the mountains. Safeway across the street was nice.

My sister and I spent a weekend here in early November to catch up and spend time together after a long absence. We had a great time! The host was available via text if I needed. The home was absolutely charming, clean, and so cutely decorated! We didn't have a lot of plans other than dining out and shopping, so we hung out at the house a lot and really enjoyed it. It is slightly noisy being so close to a busy street, but bonus is that it's so close to everything we wanted to do, it made it convenient for us and saved a lot of time getting from place to place. The beds are super comfortable, the yard is super cute. Fun to sit on the front porch but again with the traffic - no fault of anyone, just happens to be the location. We would definitely stay here again. Would like to come back when it's a little warmer to spend more time outdoors in the back yard.
