Excellent place to stay!
We had excellent communication with the owner, if we texted him he responded immediately. Our place was larger than we expected, very clean, and everything we needed was provided. This Vrbo is close to the AF Academy in Colorado and located in a very nice area with nice restaurants and things to do. Would definitely stay there again.

My third stay!
This was my third stay at Chris' house and all three trips have been excellent! I love his place and feel right at home when staying there. The neighborhood is quiet, the deer come up close to visit, and amenities are minutes away in multiple directions. Chris is a great host and you will have nothing but fond memories of a stay at his place!

This was a wonderful place for a weekend to Colorado! Very clean and comfortable! Short drives to lots of things to do. My husband’s favorite part was the sitting outside in the evening and the deer in the yard! Thank you!
