Cute cottage
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.

Great sisters weekend!
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.

This was just perfect!
I traveled to Colorado Springs from Omaha to hike the incline with my sister and friend. This location is perfect, perfect, perfect! It was super easy to get to the Incline, the Cog Train, downtown Manitou, downtown Old Colorado City, and Garden of the Gods. At the house, we enjoyed beautifully decorated rooms, a smaller but perfectly functional bathroom, and having coffee on the front porch with a view of the mountains. The kitchen is tiny, too small to do any large amount of cooking, but it was more than adequate for warming up leftover pizza and making breakfast in the morning. Everything was clean and the beds/linens were very comfortable. There is a large stash of extra blankets if you need them. Overall we had a delightful stay and the property was perfect for our needs.

Beautiful Home
We really enjoyed our stay. The home was located close to all the activities we had planned. Enjoyed eating outside in the back yard and enjoying coffee on the front porch. Saw deer in the backyard, squirrels and beautiful birds. Very relaxing. My daughters loved the movie selections.

Texans Cooling of in Colorado
We wanted to bring our kids to the mountains in Colorado Springs, and The Emerald Nest did not disappoint. The property was clean, the hostess was thoughtful in what she had available for us on the property (indoor/outdoor games, lots of outdoor seating, a Britta water pitcher already filled, extra blankets, etc), and the location was perfect for all we wanted to do and see while in Colorado Springs. Great location to Garden of the Gods, Pi
