Hummingbird Guest Cottage on Black Forest Ranch

This was the best place to stay. Host was very attentive if you needed anything and answered you right away.

This was a great place. It had one of the best stocked kitchens we had seen for this to rental. Mark and Angela were great host. This was a nice quiet place away from the hustle and bustle of the city, but close enough to make things easy to do. It was very clean and well maintained. I would definitely stay here again.

Cottage is charming. Has every amenity imaginable. Peaceful. Private. Secure. Fell in love with Colorado Springs and there’s so much to do. Our host Mark. was readily available if needed. We extremely enjoyed our stay there. And an added perk is it’s handicap accessible as I said a charming cottage a must see to enjoy.

Very clean and well decorated. We did have a hard time with altitude sickness. Where we live we are at 656’ above sea level and in 2 days we were in a cottage at 7,320 plus feet. My wife and I are in our early 70’s and, after arriving on a Monday, we did not start to come around until Friday and were never clear of all the symptoms for the two weeks of our stay. On several days we had to drive to the south of Colorado Springs and a little beyond to reach an atmosphere where we could spend several hours breathing better at 5300ft. Black Bear Restaurant in Fountain, CO. Great place to eat. Bring a big appetite. My wife and I are spoiled by the much larger open air concept houses located in the Phoenix, AZ area which we are able to rent at about the same price. Liked the kitchen and the living room and became used to the bedrooms and baths. My wife is diabetic with some neuropathy and loses depth perception somewhat in the dark. So, the little unexpected downhill section in the minuscule hallway transitioning from the bed/bath area to the living room/kitchen/dining area was a problem for us during our stay. Had to leave a light on during the night for the times she needed to go to the kitchen during the night. All in all, not a bad little place. The altitude transition was the main problem. I was a very vocal, monumental grouch from Monday until Friday afternoon while my wife suffered in silence. Just be prepared for the altitude.
