About Jacquelyn

Our family moved to Colorado Springs in 2001 when my daughter was just nine months old. We were enamored with the Colorado lifestyle and all that the City and State had to offer us - the scenic beauty is unparalleled and we could not imagine ourselves residing anywhere else.

Jacquelyn purchased this house in 2006
Why Jacquelyn chose Colorado Springs

To begin with, not many folks get to vacation in a structure that was previously a carriage house. The couple responsible for the conversion did a beautiful job preserving the character of the original house with the ladder to the hay loft and a barn door still intact.

The central location of the Caramillo house makes it a perfect choice for accessing any place in the City. Just four blocks north of Colorado College and just a minute from the interstate and access to the Air Force Academy are ideal.

My family really enjoyed our stay at this nice home. The house has so much character and is in a great locaton. But what really made it a good choice was the owner. Jacquelyn went out of here way to ensure we had everything we needed. The weather took a turn and got much colder and Jacquelyn delivered extra blankets (without even being asked). The house was clean, organized, and everything we had hoped for. I would definitely stay there again. Thank you Jacquelyn!

Lovely Historic Home

Our family of 5 stayed very comfortably in this lovely home for two nights and wish it could have been for many more. The location of the home is in one of the nicest historic neighborhood of Colorado Springs. The owner has beautifully decorated the home enhancing even more its inherent charm. Photos do not do this home justice. There was more than enough room for our group. The bedrooms are large and comfortable. Everything is well appointed and charming. The location is excellent if you want to be near downtown, which is where many offerings of unique dining and shopping are located in the city. The owner is wonderful to deal with, the whole experience was better than we could hoped for. I highly recommend this home to anyone planning a stay in Colorado Springs.

Charming cottage, very well equipped with everything you need. We were the first renters and the owners were very helpful and accomodating with everything we asked for to include extending the rental when we needed. Ideal location in Old North End close to downtown with all the restaurants, shopping, and entertainment as well as quick, easy access to I-25. Bedrooms very large and comfortable (brand new sheets were nice) with plenty of closet and storage space. Since it was winter, the patio and yard went unused but is quite large. The single car garage was good for a smaller car but would not accomodate a large SUV, but there is a driveway which could accomodate a couple of cars as well as plenty of street parking.
