About this house rental
Summary:
Welcome to Blue Spruce Cottage! Tucked just steps from Colorado College and minutes by bike or car to downtown Colorado Springs, this beautifully updated cottage has a standout blue exterior, a fully fenced backyard made for Colorado evenings, and a crisp modern interior on one of the city's most walkable streets.
📍 Steps from Colorado College, with downtown Colorado Springs and local dining just minutes away
🌿 Fully fenced backyard with open green space and outdoor games set up for the whole group
🏘️ A fully renovated cottage with a classic blue exterior and modern finishes throughout
The Space:
🛋️ LIVING ROOM
The living room is where the group naturally ends up at the end of the day. Dark charcoal velvet sofas, light hardwood floors, and a round white ottoman create a comfortable and considered layout, with a Smart TV and an open sightline into the kitchen and dining area that keeps the whole main floor connected.
🍳 KITCHEN & DINING
The kitchen is the standout feature of this home. White shaker cabinetry, a quartz waterfall island with warm wood-tone base and bar seating for two, and professional-grade stainless appliances including a French door refrigerator and range make it as functional as it looks. The kitchen comes fully stocked with a complimentary coffee station with pods and a complimentary spice rack ready on arrival. The dining area sits just beyond, where a round wood table seats four beneath a sputnik-style chandelier, with large windows pulling in natural light and backyard views.
🛏️ BEDROOMS
Bedroom 1: Queen bed with light hardwood floors and large window with natural light
Bedroom 2: Queen bed
Bedroom 3: Full bed

Half Bathroom (Main Level): A wood-tone vanity with white countertop, consistent with the home's polished palette throughout.

🌿 OUTDOOR SPACE
Step outside to a fully fenced backyard with open green space, room to spread out, and outdoor games set up and ready for the whole group.

Guest Access:
🏡 Property Access: Guests have full and private access to the entire home, including all living spaces, bedrooms, bathrooms, the fully equipped kitchen, in-unit laundry, the detached two-car garage, the fenced backyard, and the charming front porch.
🔑 Check-In: Your unique entry code will appear in your digital guidebook on the morning of your arrival.
📱 Digital Guest Guidebook: Includes your unique door lock code, check-in and check-out times, how-to guides for house amenities, and local recommendations.
The Neighborhood:
🏛️This property sits on a corner lot in one of Colorado Springs' most walkable and historically rich neighborhoods, just a short stroll from Colorado College. The streets here are lined with mature trees, century-old homes, and a genuine sense of community that sets this part of the city apart.
🍽️ Downtown Colorado Springs and the Tejon Street corridor are just minutes away by bike or car, home to local staples like Poor Richard's, a Springs institution with pizza, a bookstore, and a wine bar all under one roof. Old Colorado City adds a full stretch of independent restaurants, wine bars, and bakeries when you're ready to explore further.
🌿 Step outside and you're practically on the Shooks Run Trail, a flat paved path that connects the neighborhood directly to downtown and links into the Legacy Loop, a 10-mile trail circuit around the city. Monument Valley Park, with fishing ponds, tennis and pickleball courts, and access to the Pikes Peak Greenway, is just minutes from the front door.
🏔️ When you're ready to go bigger, Garden of the Gods, Pikes Peak, and North Cheyenne Canon are all within a short drive. The full Colorado Springs experience, starting right outside your door.
Getting Around:
🚗 By Car: Colorado Springs is a car-friendly city and most major attractions are within 10-20 minutes. A car is recommended for day trips to Garden of the Gods, Pikes Peak, and the surrounding mountains.
🚶 On Foot: Colorado College, several local restaurants, and the Shooks Run Trail are all walkable from the front door. The neighborhood has wide sidewalks, low traffic, and some of the best walkability in the city.
🚲 By Bike: The property sits steps from the Shooks Run Trail, a flat paved corridor that runs north to downtown and connects to the Legacy Loop and Pikes Peak Greenway. It's a biker's paradise by local standards.
🚌 Public Transit: Mountain Metro Transit provides bus service throughout Colorado Springs with routes accessible from the neighborhood. Service is limited compared to larger cities, so a car or rideshare is recommended for most outings.
🚕 Rideshare: Uber and Lyft operate throughout Colorado Springs and are a reliable option for evenings out or airport transfers.
Other Things to Note:
🔔 24/7 Guest Support: We're always just a message or call away.
✨ In-House Team: Our dedicated cleaning and maintenance crews ensure 5-star quality control.
☕ Starter Amenities: Arrive stress-free! We provide a starter kit including K-cups, paper towels, and toilet paper, plus hotel-quality shampoo, body wash, and plush white towels.
📜 Rental Agreement: Please note that a signed Rental Agreement is required to confirm your stay. Details and the link can be found in your digital guidebook, which is sent after booking.
💵 Additional Fees
Damage Protection: A damage protection option is required for all reservations and is processed through our third-party system prior to arrival. Before check-in, you'll choose one of two options:
Damage Waiver: A non-refundable fee from $25–$40/night (max $200), covering accidental damage beyond normal wear and tear, up to $500. Most guests pick this, and nothing is held on your card.
Security Deposit: A fully refundable hold from $350–$1,000. This is a pre-authorized hold (not a charge) that is released following a damage-free inspection after checkout, typically within 7 business days.
Amounts depend on the home and length of stay. This is handled separately from your reservation payment.
Optional services like early check-in, late check-out, and extra guests can be arranged on request, subject to availability. These cover the cost of reworking the cleaning schedule or bringing in a second cleaner. Please message us ahead of time for pricing and availability.
⏰ Check-Out Policy: To respect our cleaning team's schedule and ensure the home is perfect for the next guest, unauthorized late check-outs are subject to a fee of $20 per 30 minutes. We appreciate your understanding!
