We loved staying at the Emerald Nest. More than enough space to get comfortable, and perfectly located to visit Pike's Peak, Garden of the Gods.

Sweet Little House

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.

Comfortable, cute house in the heart of Colorado Springs.

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.

Great Location

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.
