Galactic Oasis 1966 Retro-Futuristic Luxury House with Mars Game Lounge

Welcome to the year 1966! This stunning luxury property transcends traditional standards of rentals by offering an experience unlike any other. Photographers, models, history buffs, space enthusiasts, science fiction lovers, honeymooners, vacationers, gamers, 420 tourists, Air Force Academy/military visitors, dog owners, and fans of high quality interior design will find plenty to do and enjoy at this 5-star oasis retreat. Created by Austin William Davidson -- internationally recognized and awarded host, artist, interior designer, and chief of operations for Wander Limited - this property transports guests through time and space. Designed as a rebuttal to the generic lifeless homes so common on vacation rental sites, Galactic Oasis 1966 was created to feel like a breathing functioning home in the year 1966 -- while still offering all the modern amenities (and more) of a luxury STVR today. Explore the "lives" of the fictional house residents -- Air Force test pilot Colonel Lance T. Trident and his family -- as he works with NASA to prepare for the first attempted Moon landing in the year 1966, . Guests are encouraged to open drawers and cabinets and reveal the story behind the (fictional) house residents. Old magazines, viewfinders, scrapbooks, diaries, and other historical family "easter-eggs" are tucked away throughout the house awaiting curious guest discovery!

Each room boasts unbelievable custom design, art, woodwork, and lighting handmade exclusively for this project by Wander founders, Austin and Kila. The house is a labor of love -- the culmination of one year's work to bring to realty, this property inhabits a region somewhere between an art gallery, museum, amusement park, and a luxury STVR.

A Fun and Beautifully Decorated Theme Rental
This home was so well done from top to bottom. The space age theme was accomplished quite tastefully and with great ideas as to how to display and showcase that theme. There was so much to see and read in the home itself, we never left the property! The owners have placed qr codes all over the house to give instructions or helpful hints, including places to visit. The place was remarkably clean everywhere. Comfy beds. TV s in every room. We thought check-in and out was really easy. We really enjoyed every minute!

Festive Family Vacation
Best time ever!! For this particular trip I kept everything a surprise (regarding the house) and pulling up in a regular neighborhood & seeing everyone’s faces light up as they walked into the home, was EVERYTHING GOOD after a 12.5 hour drive. Every room was a completely amazing surprise, & the baby accommodation were an absolute bonus. Thank you for creating a wonderful SPACE 😊

We enjoyed staying in this cool home. The home was clean and very welcoming. The beds were all comfortable and the dog enjoyed the fenced backyard. We would definitely stay here again.

It’s a Far Out Place
This place was a trip. We were a group of friends looking for a funky place to stay for a few days and this place was perfect. The theme was amazing, the place had so many little details that kept us entertained. The rooms and bathrooms were nice and well kept especially the master bedroom. The 420 “Space Room” was the best part of the place and made it one of the best rental stays we have ever done. They don’t show pics but it has a decent fenced in back yard that made having a dog very easy. Overall, if you have a group of friends and looking for something far out, it’s worth it.

Amazing!
My family and I just left Galactic Oasis today. We came to celebrate the 21st birthday of the oldest grandkid/niece of the family. Niece+boyfriend, her parents, her grandma, her aunts and great aunt. I can’t say enough good things about this property. It was exactly as described. The decor shines in person, the craftsmanship and attention to detail are out of this world. Bathrooms stocked like an upscale hotel. Beds and bedding were very cozy! So much room for everyone to spread out. The two basement bedrooms are not as private as the upstairs ones - you have to walk through one to get to the other just for reference. This was a non issue for us. Great sitting area in the basement too. The 420 room if you are one who partakes made the trip and the house; even everything you need in there. The birthday girl was so blown away by the house we had to pull her out to enjoy the area! Will recommend to all we know who come out this way! Thank you

Nice property but little more explanation needed in listing for out of colorado residents
This was a great property with nice interiors, we were all spell bounded by the interiors. It was clean and well maintained except the game room where our kids want to play but it was all bad smell as we didn't know what it means as 402 zone. But, the property manager was kind enough to offer pay for our dinner and refund if we decide to move out early. so overall it was a great stay with hiccups.

Super cool house
First this house has some really interesting decor. You can tell the owners put a lot of thought into the details in every room. I will say the astronaut made for some interesting late night trips to the bathroom. :). Austin was great to work with and if our travels bring us back yo Colorado Springs we will stay again!

"Can we go back to the astronaut house?"
We stayed here for my son's 3rd birthday and he hasn't stopped asking to go back since! The attention to detail was incredible. Being that we are a military family, I also love that it was veteran owned! Each room had so much care put into it from the walls to surprises inside the drawers! While it could have been cleaned a little more thoroughly in some of the not-so-frequently used spaces, all the important places were clean. Highly recommend for families or groups who love space or the 1960s!
