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.

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.
