The Space:
Welcome to the Mountain Retreat! Recharge and reconnect with nature in this modern peak property, designed with families in mind! Just minutes away from Pikes Peak - America's Mountain, it’s a fabulous escape from city life. There’s no shortage of contemporary amenities including a hot tub, an outdoor fire pit, and a chef’s kitchen. Comfortably sleeps up to 9 guests and has multiple gathering spaces with STUNNING views! Browse our photos, ask us any questions, and book today!

Drawing inspiration from Colorado’s earth tones and rocky lands, the spaces within the Mountain Retreat have been intentionally curated to show an appreciation for the environment. The private front deck is all yours to watch the sunrise and sunset and an excellent location for spotting wildlife. Enjoy seamless movement throughout the interior of the home, with an open-concept living room, dining room, and kitchen area. Spend time unwinding on one of the two reclining couches or matching armchairs in the living room and stream your favorite shows on the Smart TV. Turn on the gas fireplace and cozy up after adventuring in the mountains.

Centered in the dining room area is an 8-person dining table. Gather around for a home-cooked meal or have some good old competitive fun with board games and cards. You’ll have easy access from the dining room to the kitchen, making food preparation even easier. Extra seating can be found around the huge center island in the incredible gourmet kitchen. Beautiful cabinetry, granite slab countertops, and tile backsplash tie it all together. Fully stocked and ready to help prep your best meals with appliances including stove/oven, microwave, fridge, and a Keurig. There’s also a washer and dryer unit off the kitchen, so you can pack lightly!

The first bedroom can be accessed from beyond the kitchen or through its own separate entrance that leads to the backyard. Blue tones are throughout the room, with a queen-sized bed in the middle. The next bedroom can accommodate kids and teens, with a bunk bed and room for an additional mattress pad next to it. The master bedroom offers a luxurious king-sized bed with a double-sided closet and its own private bathroom. A sizable vanity and sink, a large soaking bathtub, and a travertine shower await. Open the curtains in the morning and see a wonderland of evergreen forests and snow-capped mountain peaks in the distance. Like the primary bathroom, the shared bathroom features a walk-in shower with travertine tile and has been stocked with hand-picked towels and soaps.

The secluded, level grounds offer a variety of outdoor entertaining spaces. A back patio with a Jacuzzi offers an all-season respite after a day of chasing waterfalls. Another highlight is the mountain-view deck and outdoor furniture, perfect for a pre-hike coffee or post-cave exploring cocktails.

Guest Access:
Exclusive access to all parts of your home and plenty of parking. Please note: There are two other homes on the property, but they do not have access to your apartment, or fenced in patio.

Your comfort and satisfaction are our top priorities, and that extends to every facet of your stay, including our hot tub. To keep it in optimal condition, we have a professional hot tub technician visit our property once a week. This maintenance visit, usually lasting about an hour, ensures that the hot tub is kept clean, functional, and ready for your enjoyment throughout your stay.

Rest assured, these visits are designed to be non-intrusive. The technician only needs access to the outdoor area and will not disturb your indoor privacy. We schedule these sessions to ensure minimal disruption to your relaxation and aim to provide you with a seamless, top-notch experience.

The Neighborhood:
The location of the property gives you the sense of being away from it all, while still having the convenience of being just 20 minutes from Colorado Springs and a half hour from the airport. Hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding trails are only a few minutes away. Cascade is a scenic mountain community well-suited for exploration, but with all the close-by amenities, you may never want to leave the area.

Right across the road is the Wines of Colorado, a popular wine bar and creekside dining experience that serves wine, beer, and spirits. The Winery at Pikes Peak is also just a four-minute walk down the road, where you can enjoy wine tasting, brunch, or dinner. Other eateries include Fern’s Diner & Drinkery, Pikes Peak Pickle Shack, and Sweet Tooth’s Ice cream just across the highway.

For outdoor activities, Heizer trail, a 6.1-mile out-and-back trail is just a three-minute drive from where you’re staying, and right next to that is Cascade Colorado Park. There’s no shortage of activities for kids and young people, including the nearby amusement park, Home of Santa’s Workshop North Pole, which opens in May and till the end of December.

The greater Colorado Springs region is vast in opportunities for memorable leisure, both indoors and out. Enjoy hiking, ziplining, rafting, skiing, snowshoeing, fishing, and hunting. Indulge in museums, art galleries, performing arts venues, historic walking tours, collections of unique shops, fine dining, breweries, cocktail bars, or a visit to the zoo.
