The Gathering House- Amazing Rocky Mt. Views & Trails! Garden of the gods- USAFA

Find The Gathering House in a sweet neighborhood close to the mountains on the peaceful West side. Enjoy a Perfect VIEW of Pikes Peak. Open the back gate to open-space, trails, & a sledding hill. Centrally located & close by scenic Garden of the gods, Pulpit Rock, Ute Valley Park & USAFA. Enjoy nearby restaurants, a fire indoors or out, a large yard, twinkle light patio & fire pit. New kitchen! The home is comfy, cozy, & warm. Perfect for gathering. Welcome & have Fun!

NO CATS & NO SMOKING! (We are super allergic.) Thank you! Also, if you smoke outback, please extinguish all cigarette buts in the fire pit. We have a very DRY open space behind us for part of the year.

The location & view are a gem. The Gathering House is a tri-level home. 3 Bedrooms upstairs, 3 baths, a living room, family room, dining room, laundry room, & remodeled kitchen. The family room has comfy couches, a TV, a console with gaming system, & board games as well. The kitchen should have the utensils and appliances you need, including a coffee maker, microwave, toaster, bottle opener, etc. The Master bedroom has a large walk-in closet, attached bath, and a vintage toddler bed. You also have access to the garage. There is a large backyard with trails that start right behind the house. There is a park with play equipment just a five minute walk away on Delmonico. This house is 10 minutes from Garden of the Gods, 10 minutes from USAFA, 10 minutes from Downtown, Old Colorado City is 10 minutes away, & Manitou and the Incline are 15-20. So centrally located.

You can access the top 3 floors, garage, front and back yard, & open space. You will not have access to the basement. We will have the basement door locked for safety reasons because all the homes utilities are not closeted. You will have access to 1/2 of the two car garage & garage door opener. We will have our old mercedes parked on the left side. It is currently not running or we would love to offer it to you to use. :)

Perfect House for our Family Trip
This house was great for our family. We had two families meet together, and the house met our needs. The backyard was a big highlight for the kids (ages 13 to 2). The toddler bed and pack n play were perfect for our young kids. The location was great. We did run out of hot water in the master bedroom shower a couple of times, but we were competing with the other shower, so somerhing to note for big groups! Shelly was wonderful to communicate with, and she was helpful when we couldn't figure out the lockpad for the door. My son keeps asking to go back!

Vacation stay
This property served our 7 member party well. The house was spacious. The view from the backyard was breathtaking. I didn’t do any cooking (I was on vacation) but the kitchen appeared to be well stocked with what one would need. The air conditioner worked very well. It was located within a reasonable driving distance to many points of interest. We had a great time and would return if headed back to COS.

This home was perfect for our family of 5. Our teenage boys all had a bed of their own and this is a big plus. Didn't stay long enough to take advantage of the beautiful kitchen or the fire pit in the backyard. The view from the backyard is awesome!! Would definitely rent again from Shelly if we are in the area.

Amazing Family Vacation
We absolutely loved our visit to CO Springs for our kid's spring break! The house and view of Pikes Peak was absolutely breathtaking - we cannot wait to return! The house was great for kids - the only issue I would say was the shower doors in the main bathroom did not want to close. Other than that we just used the bathroom in the hallway - which was fine. We visited Garden of the Gods, Pikes Peak, Manitou Springs, and Denver - we wanted to do more hikes but the weather was too cold on the last day (snow) so we hung around town! Thanks for allowing us to say in your wonderful home! The view is a complete treasure!

very cozy property with a view that was better than I remembered from the pictures. House was stocked with basic essentials and directions were clear. I do wish there was a better place for our trash, as the outside cans were full.

The backyard view and access to the rockrimmon open space was incredible. We saw mule deer, rabbits, owls, magpie, huge grass hoppers all in the back area. The property manager, Shelly was super easy to work with, and the house was clean and ready. Very pleased!

Beautiful view, perfect location, charming home
The Gathering House was perfect for our 7 family members for our sons Air Force graduation and wedding! Shelly was such a gracious hostess and responded immediately and met our every needs. The kitchen is beautifully updated and we cooked for all that gathered at the house. We even made s'mores, which Shelly had provided the ingredients for, over the fire pit in the backyard!

Beautiful home with beautiful views
The house was exactly as advertised! Amazing views! Everything you need is in the house from paper towels, dishes, toilet paper, cooking utensils, etc.... The home owners gave us complete privacy and were quick to respond to texts and emails. The house is close to restaurants, shopping, and all the “hot spots” such as Garden of Gods/pikes peak/etc. Something to consider is having your groceries delivered to the house (Safeway). We did that and it made it easy to prepare some meals at the house without wasting vacation time at a grocery store!

The perfect home for a family vacation
The Gathering House is a wonderful place to stay; plenty of room and all the amenities you could hope for. The location is fantastic with a great view to the west, and easy access to I-25 and all the attractions in the Colorado Springs area. Shopping, restaurants, and fuel are close by, also. Don’t be surprised if you walk out to find urban deer relaxing in the front yard. Shelly was always quick to reply to my questions.
