Woodland Park Retreat Vacation

The house is great for families and groups. The setting is perfect - close enough to Woodland Park to be convenient but still provides the woods and quiet of a forest. Kids love the tree house and large outdoor area...bike trails nearby and Colorado Springs attractions less than :30 away. This is the way to spend your Colorado vacation

The description did not do this property justice. This was a top notch home, extremely comfortable, plenty of room. This home was very clean and well maintained. Caretakers were very friendly and accomodating. We visited Pikes peak, Cliff Dwellings, Cave of the Winds, Horseback riding in the Garden of the Gods (outstanding), White Water Rafting in Buena Vista (Aquired Taste Rafting)- cheapest and best quality!!! We also visited Royal Gorge, and shopping in Manitou Springs (Navajo Souvenir Store) was the best around, biggest selection and resonable prices!!! This vacation was stress free, relaxing, and a wonderful way to get caught up on quality family time!! Woodland Park is a beautiful town (Above the Clouds). All necessity's close by, even a Wal-Mart!! This property is located in the Pike's Natural Forest, so you have privacy, quite and peacefulness. Hiking the area was a great adventure and watching the deer in the moring roaming the landscape was truly inspiring. Thank you for allowing us the opprotunity to stay in your beautiful home. Gormet Kitchen and appliances with stocked cabinets>>>>> AWESOME, i enjoy cooking, which we did and save a TON of money doing so>> was in HEAVEN!!!! The only complaint i have is that the sleeping limit is 8, but plenty of beds to sleep 10 comfortably. I would have liked to bring more of the family with us which we could not.
Thank you again for EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!

I booked this house for my (parents, cousins, siblings) for a family wedding. It had several bedrooms and bathrooms on different levels. We needed a place that everyone could go to and have their own space yet still be all together. It was a perfect home. The furnishings and ammenities were over the top. I would definately recommend this place to everyone.

The wildlife is great and the house is right next to the forest.

This locations requries a vehicle to get to.

We had a wonderful time at the Woodland Park Retreat. The birds and wildlife we're so fun to watch and the kids enjoyed some great "pinecone baseball" games. We loved relaxing in the hot tub at night and would definitely recommend this home to all our friends and family.

My family met at the Retreat from 3 different states, long drive but well worth every mile. We had 6 adults and 4 children and the sleeping arrangements were perfect! The loft upstairs had 2 twin beds and a queen bed as well. The kids took the loft and the 3 adult couples each got their own room for privacy. The house was beautiful and fully stocked. Everything you may need has been anticipated by the owners and provided for you. They even provided a christmas tree and decorations for our use! The snow covered the ground making everything picture perfect and very inviting for the children to go spend their days playing outside. There was a family of deer that paid us a visit everyday during our week long stay. We saw elk and what we think was a lynx or some type of bobcat on our last night there.

There are stores within 10-15 minutes drive (we made quite a few trips to the store for things we forgot so it was nice having it so close!) and we enjoyed the quaint town of Manitou Springs, it was lit up so beautifully at night with Christmas lights. We went sledding at Mueller State Park, drove to Cripple Creek. The kids (and adults, truth be told) loved the Dinosaur Museum in Woodland Park.

My family felt completely at home and so thoroughly enjoyed our stay that we will be back! If you choose to stay here you won't be disapointed!

Our family of 6 adults and 2 children spent last weekend enjoying the Woodland Park Retreat. We had plenty of room to spread out, and the description online was very accurate. The foodies in the group made great use of the well-stocked kitchen and the grill. The kids loved the sleds that were graciously provided. The dining table was plenty large and could have fit a couple more. We all had fun spotting the deer outside in the morning and checking out the mountain view through the trees. This place is meticulously and lovingly maintained. We all felt relaxed and rejuvenated after our stay and would highly recommend it for a great family getaway!

We just had an idyllic stay at the Woodland Park Retreat. 3 inches of fresh snow made it a winter wonderland! It is exactly as described, and I must agree with the prior comment that it is exactly as described. Our family of 6 adults and two small children had ample room to spread out, and the kids loved sledding. The adults enjoyed the tranquility, the deer outside in the morning, and the well-stocked kitchen. We would stay there again in a heartbeat!
