This was the perfect fit for our family together. There's nothing fancy about this place, but it is well thought out and all of what we needed and then some was there. The space is open and great for gathering either inside or out.

House was very clean, spacious and very well stocked. Location is great, just off highway and a quick drive to some of the sites. Owners reached out to us a couple of times to make sure we had everything we needed. Beds were comfortable! Nice finished basement. Highly recommend this place!

We had a quick business trip where we needed to have a place to stay and a place to meet all day. This place was perfect! Bright and cheery atmosphere, TV easily connected to our laptops for viewing, the backyard was a fun break in between sessions. The hosts were 'johnny on the spot' anytime I reached out with a question. We will definitely be back!

Our family of six stayed here for the week while we were in town to drop off our son for I-Day at USAFA. The home is very spacious and comfortable. Absolutely everything I normally pack to stay in a VRBO was provided, which was such a pleasant surprise. The kitchen was completely stocked, which I very much appreciated since we ate all our meals in. We had a wonderful time soaking in those last few days with our basic cadet playing the yard games and the many provided board games. Location was super convenient to both stores and USAFA. We are already looking forward to our next stay here for Parent’s Weekend.

Property owner was very responsive to our needs . Everything we needed was provided including places to go and restaurants to try! The gift card for Josh and John ice cream was very thoughtful! So with the snacks on arrival. Quiet and safe neighborhood; the rooms are exactly like the pictures. Kinda nice to get a break from loading the wash like other properties. Would definitely stay again. Thanks for everything, Jenn!

We have stayed in COS for several weeks to a month each summer for the last 10 years. This place is now one of our favorites! So convenient to everything and set up so well for family dwelling... spacious, lots of comfortable sleeping arrangements, very well equipped and a perfect back yard space for family games, grilling and eating out. It is located in a quiet neighborhood near all the COS amenities and shopping. The owners, Brent and Jenn are "on call" to do whatever it takes to make your stay comfortable! The pictures are what you get! Good visuals of this great vacation rental. We loved staying here... and our grandchildren loved it as well!! Thank you, Brent and Jenn!!

Our family of 5 had a glorious stay here. The owners were very accommodating and responsive. The house was perfect, super clean, cozy, had everything we needed and more. There is so much character in this house. It is a quiet neighborhood and a perfect location to so many places. Jenn, the owner is so sweet and welcoming. Our kids were excited about the corn hole and giant chess game outside. We grilled out on the patio, had amazing family time, played games, and slept amazing in the super comfy beds. The shower upstairs was truly amazing. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing, bright, happy, safe environment that is conveniently located to everything we needed. I can't say enough about this place. Perfect!

We very much enjoyed our stay at The Turquoise Twin! The house had a wonderful layout - so much bigger than we thought! Fenced in yard with games - kids absolutely loved it!
Kitchen was well stocked - it had every utensil we needed for our 3 day stay. Downstairs did get quite a bit cold at night but the extra plush blankets definitely helped.
Property owners were very responsive and on stand by to address any concerns.
I only wish there was a recycling service in the area - hate throwing all plastic/glass containers away :(
The location could not have been any better for a tourist - lots of restaurants and grocery stores, minutes from highway.
We had a great time staying at this property. It was definitely worth every penny!

We stayed at this place last week and had a wonderful stay. Getting into the house was easy, and it was in a great location. Nice neighborhood, close to groceries, a gym for my husband, gas, and many great dining options. Also not far from all of the main attractions nearby and we felt we were in a very safe area. The place was very clean and tidy and everything was easy to access and utilize. The owners had lots of household items you would need which made it really nice. All of the bedrooms are very spacious and the beds are very comfortable. The downstairs shower head is a little short, so taller visitors would want to use the main floor shower, but it worked fine for me, and isn’t a complaint nor reason I wouldn’t stay here. The backyard is large and very well kept. Great if you are coming during the summer time for sure. If we ever return to Colorado Springs I would definitely stay here again! Highly reccomend.

The property was very clean, beds prepped well, everything was all tidy and neat! The kitchen was well equipped with necessities. We loved the main level shared bathroom because the shower was huge😀 my son loved the chess board and sitting outside to do his homework. My in-laws liked the basement bedroom as well. There was a living room in the basement which we didn’t get to use as we were all gathering upstairs. The laundry area was very clean as well. Highly recommended and will be booking again if we come in large group. Thank you Brent & Jenn
Just a suggestion: perhaps would be good to update your folder giving more details where guests should throw the trash & recycling. We asked, they were prompt to response so it wasn’t a hassle at all.

I have been renting through vrbo for 20 years and this rental is truly superior and I would recommend it to anyone. Some of the most important things I look for when researching rentals is the location, beds, kitchen, showers, & cleanliness. They were awesome on all counts. I felt very safe at this location. I took walks by myself with no worry. Walmart is 9 minutes away - very convenient. The beds were big, clean and comfortable. The sheets smelled cleanly laundered. (At other rentals we found sheets with hair, and stains and didnt smell laundered and had to strip the bed and wash everything). So such a pleasant experience to find clean sheets. The kitchen was top notch. They had lots of dishes and everything for cooking. Everything was new and plentiful. They even had a welcome basket with granola bars etc. Items for baking, tin foil, butter, veg oil, etc and complimentary tea & water in the fridge. Everything was super clean. Showers were nice and had shampoo, conditioner & bath gel. Towels were new, clean & plentiful. Lots of games indoors and out They have street parking but it was never a problem. I parked right in front of the door every time. The owner/manager was super responsive. Ex. The smoke alarm or carbon monoxide alarm was beeping due to a low battery and they immediately fixed it. This rental and the owners exceeded our expectations and everything was wonderful. I would recommend this house to anyone.
