Travellers describe Colorful Bungalow By Pikes PeakandGarden of the Gods as a cozy, well-equipped, dog-friendly cottage with vintage charm, quiet privacy, inviting deck views, and a convenient location close to Garden of the Gods and downtown Manitou Springs.
Reviews consistently note clean interiors, comfortable bedding, and thoughtful touches, along with clear check-in and responsive, caring hosts. Common trade-offs include multiple stairs, tight or limited parking, and no air conditioning (fans provided), with a few isolated comments about minor maintenance, a dirty floor, or a nonworking fireplace or grill. One reviewer also mentioned a noticeable homeless presence nearby. Expect a characterful, low-key base for exploring the area.

Dog-friendly home very near Garden of the Gods. Vintage decor and yard was completely fenced in, so dog-safe. There are stairs, but we understood them to be a high altitude training opportunity!

This little bungalow was colorful, cozy, and comfortable. The several steps were narrow, but no trouble for us and accurately advertised. We passed by the place the first time because it is kind of tucked back. The driveway is short, but it was fine for our little rental car. A short drive to Garden of the Gods, downtown Manitou Springs, and Colorado Springs. The deck was great for sitting outside and enjoying the mountain view. It was fun seeing the kids playing on the soccer field across the street too. Everything was well-labeled in the house with great directions. Plenty of towels and toiletries and everything we needed.

Enjoyed our stay very much. Only problem we had was our last night went to use BBQ grill and either we did not know how to operate it or it was out of propane. Was to late to get ahold of property management. We will use them again next time we are in Manitou Springs. Thanks

A perfect place to decompress after sightseeing and golf. We loved the deck outside which is where we spent most of our time. Would have liked to have a casserole dish to bake dinner in but we managed without one. On a 39 day trip this was a highlight.

This was our seventh visit to the Colorful Bungalow. It is a cozy one bedroom that has lots of space! The short walk to The Garden of the Gods is a big attraction, along with a breathtaking view of Pikes Peak from the front deck. The house is well appointed with all the necessities! It is a dog friendly place with lots to offer.

The house and property are much as we remembered. We stayed for several days in 2021. Unfortunately, we both developed back issues after making the reservation. We were unable to do as much out and about as we had intended, so we spent more time at the house. We noticed differences from last time, such as new flooring where before there had been carpet and fewer books on the shelf. Unfortunately, at our age, we probably won't revisit Manitou Springs, especially on a fall weekend. The house is a pleasure, and we recommend it to anyone who can navigate the many stairs.

I love this quirky little house! It was such a comfortable and warm place to stay. I sat on the deck with my coffee, looking at the snowy mountains. For a small place, they really have everything you could even need. It was very welcoming. Bed is comfy. The only thing, is it really only has room for one vehicle.

Everything you could ever want is furnished. Clean, cozy, comfortable and so adorably decorated. You won’t be disappointed. Location is great, you can see the mountains from the patios. We enjoyed sitting outside. There is no need for a/c it stayed nice & cool. Plenty of fans if needed. We can’t wait to go back!

This place is super cute. It was nestled between some rocks that deer would often hang out around and greet us when we would enjoy the views from the windows. It was quiet, clean, and comfortable. The hosts were great. It snowed a lot during our stay and they came by to shovel the steps/walk way for us. My favorite part about our stay was seeing the history of the home. The kitchen was fun and seeing the photos and reading the story of the woman who lived there was warming and made me feel right at home.

Cute place. I agree with all of the positive reviews except for: 1) The floor was a bit dirty with dog hair and so on. 2) The toilet area was a really tight fit. 3) Although the location was very convenient and beautiful, the homeless problem was quite significant in the area. No problem for me, but I could see how it could be a turnoff for some people. 4) Some maintenance is needed for the fridge and the garden wall behind the porch. Overall it was still a good value for me, but some improvement would make it even better.

We stayed at this fun, cozy cottage for 3 days. It was a great location to visit the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo & Garden of the Gods(around the corner). Loved enjoying the view of the beautiful snow covered Pike’s Peak & red rock in the yard out of the kitchen window or from the deck.

Our stay at Red Rocks Retreat was nothing short of amazing for our first Colorado experience. My husband and I did not want to leave! It was so nice to be right in between downtown Manitou Springs and Garden of the Gods. We loved exploring all day and then coming back home to warm & cozy 22 El Paso. I personally adored the keepsakes/pictures/memories and such around the house reminding you of the original owner, Georgia. She seemed like a precious soul! Manitou Springs and Red Rocks retreat will always hold a special place in my heart!! Thank you for this wonderful experience. I hope to be back one day!

Great location- five minutes to Garden of the Gods and to a bike/pedestrian path. We loved the front patio looking down on everything. First night there we saw a black bear coming from the nearby stream then in the morning there were deer right outside the kitchen nook window. There is also a park across the street- lots of options to walk your dog.

I agree with all of the positive reviews except for: 1) The floor was a bit dirty with dog hair and so on. 2) The toilet area was a really tight fit. 3) Although the location was very convenient and beautiful, the homeless problem was quite significant in the area. No problem for me, but I could see how it could be a turnoff for some people. 4) Some maintenance is needed for the fridge and the garden wall behind the porch. Overall it was still a good value for me, but some improvement would make it even better.
Cute place. I agree with all of the positive reviews except for: 1) The floor was a bit dirty with dog hair and so on. 2) The toilet area was a really tight fit. 3) Although the location was very convenient and beautiful, the homeless problem was quite significant in the area. No problem for me, but I could see how it could be a turnoff for some people. 4) Some maintenance is needed for the fridge and the garden wall behind the porch. Overall it was still a good value for me, but some improvement would make it even better.

This is our second time at this cute Bungalow. Property is as described. Location is wonderful! We saw deer every night. Nice park with pickleball and tennis within walking distance. We really enjoyed the Cheyenne mountain zoo, Garden of the Gods and walking the shops of Manitou Springs.

This was our seventh visit to the Colorful Bungalow. It is a cozy one bedroom that has lots of space! The short walk to The Garden of the Gods is a big attraction, along with a breathtaking view of Pikes Peak from the front deck. The house is well appointed with all the necessities! It is a dog friendly place with lots to offer.

We absolutely loved our stay here. The home is so cozy and private, while also being so close to so many fun things. We loved exploring Garden of the Gods, Manitou Springs, and Colorado Springs. Definitely recommend! :)

Everything you could ever want is furnished. Clean, cozy, comfortable and so adorably decorated. You won’t be disappointed. Location is great, you can see the mountains from the patios. We enjoyed sitting outside. There is no need for a/c it stayed nice & cool. Plenty of fans if needed. We can’t wait to go back!

Dog-friendly home very near Garden of the Gods. Vintage decor and yard was completely fenced in, so dog-safe. There are stairs, but we understood them to be a high altitude training opportunity!

A perfect place to decompress after sightseeing and golf. We loved the deck outside which is where we spent most of our time. Would have liked to have a casserole dish to bake dinner in but we managed without one. On a 39 day trip this was a highlight.
