Cute and cozy!

We found the Love Shack to be our little calm oasis away from the bustle of Manitou Springs. It is a well loved place and totally worth it for the bathtub alone! Thanks for the fun stay!

Great walkability

Close enough to walk to the cog train and several nearby restaurants (and shopping) so you can leave your car parked and not worry about a ticket (or parking prices). Nice private outdoor area to relax in. Everything we wanted.

Great weekend stay at the Love Shack!

My husband and I stayed at the Love Shack for the weekend. We went for the Manitou Incline, the Pikes Peak Cog Railway, and the great town of Manitou Springs. The Love Shack has a great location to all three of these places. The Manitou Springs bus shuttle stops right outside and it takes you straight to the PP Cog Railway/ Incline entrance. The Love Shack is a perfect and comfortable place for a couple. The property owner/ manager was very communicative and accommodating. We will definitely stay at the Love Shack again the next time we are in Manitou Springs.

Secluded

From my initial booking to post holiday checkout, my host Christopher, was exceptionally responsive. As for the property, what wasn't to love! Easy to locate, warmly decorated, immaculately clean, and well equipped with all the necessary conveniences, even coffee and paper towels! The property is quiet, private and secluded, but is located in a SUPER convenient location. It is less than a 10 minute drive to Manitou Cliff Dwellings, Garden of the Gods, Red Rock Open Space, Pikes Peak Cog Rail and Manitou Incline. Thus, you can enjoy hiking and visiting sites without wasting hours of your vacation driving to destinations. For your evening enjoyment, this rental is about a 2 or 3 minute walk to the charming Downtown of Manitou Springs. Here's where you will find shopping, dining, an old fashioned penny arcade and street performers. This rental is a Winner in terms of host responsiveness, cleanliness and location and value.

Great stay in Manitou

Me and wife stayed here a couple nights on a weekend trip away from work. This place was beautiful and convenient, it's within walking distance of the town. Only downfall besides having to leave is the wifi was a little spotty. Will definitely stay again.

Loved the love shack!

We were in Manitou Springs for a wedding and we absolutely loved staying here. It was walking distance from downtown and was very close to the venue. The property was lovely and we will be staying again next time we visit!

Sweet retreat

Starting the morning with a bath, walked to breakfast and was greeted with a mule deer laying down on the brush near our gate. Pretty magical spot.
