Short drive to to Air Force Academy, Garden of the Gods, and downtown. Walk to the grocery store, Starbucks, and restaurants. House is great for couples, families, or groups up to 8.

Detailed Description:
Upon arriving walk up three steps to enter the house using the provided door code. On the main floor you'll find two bedrooms, a bathroom, living room, dining area, and kitchen. There are extra blankets and pillows in each closet and luggage racks for your convenience. The upstairs bathroom has a large shower, towels, soap, conditioner, body wash, and hair dyer. The light and bright living room is a great place to relax with one of the many books we have in our mini-library or watch TV. The kitchen has plenty of counter space and is equipped with everything you need (minus food!) to cook a great meal. The dining area seats six at the table. The french doors in the dining room lead to a small patio with seating and gas grill. The private backyard is fenced and also has a patio table with six chairs. The is also artificial turf with corn hole and a giant chess set. Downstairs, you'll find the master bedroom with king sized bed. The bathroom, accessible through the bedroom, has a shower and the same amenities as the upstairs bathroom. Across the hall from the master bedroom is the flex room that can be used as a 4th bedroom if needed. It has a closet, egressed windows, and doors for privacy. In this room, you'll also find a sofa bed, TV, games, and foosball table. Please note the fireplace is inoperable. The laundry room with washer and dryer (no extra charge!) is accessible through the family room and master bedroom. We are properly permitted in the city of Colorado Springs, permit #STR-0862

Things to Note:
This is one side of a duplex. The basement level can be cooler than the upstairs. We have plenty of blankets but bring a sweater in case you get cold. Three rooms are set up as strict bedrooms. The 4th room is a flex room that can be used a rec room or bedroom if needed. While the house can sleep 8 people, please note there are only two bathrooms and the water heater will likely not accommodate 8 back-to-back showers. (There are no bathtubs.) When both showers are running at the same time the water pressure will decrease slightly. We provide a generous starter supply of household goods such as toilet paper, tissue, and laundry/dish soaps.

Great family location!

This was the perfect fit for our family together. There's nothing fancy about this place, but it is well thought out and all of what we needed and then some was there. The space is open and great for gathering either inside or out.

Great place

Great for families!

Our family of six stayed here for the week while we were in town to drop off our son for I-Day at USAFA. The home is very spacious and comfortable. Absolutely everything I normally pack to stay in a VRBO was provided, which was such a pleasant surprise. The kitchen was completely stocked, which I very much appreciated since we ate all our meals in. We had a wonderful time soaking in those last few days with our basic cadet playing the yard games and the many provided board games. Location was super convenient to both stores and USAFA. We are already looking forward to our next stay here for Parent’s Weekend.

Great meeting space!

We had a quick business trip where we needed to have a place to stay and a place to meet all day. This place was perfect! Bright and cheery atmosphere, TV easily connected to our laptops for viewing, the backyard was a fun break in between sessions. The hosts were 'johnny on the spot' anytime I reached out with a question. We will definitely be back!

So with the snacks on arrival. Quiet and safe neighborhood; the rooms are exactly like the pictures. Kinda nice to get a break from loading the wash like other properties. Would definitely stay again. Thanks for everything, Jenn!

A Great Family Vacation Home

We have stayed in COS for several weeks to a month each summer for the last 10 years. This place is now one of our favorites! So convenient to everything and set up so well for family dwelling... spacious, lots of comfortable sleeping arrangements, very well equipped and a perfect back yard space for family games, grilling and eating out. It is located in a quiet neighborhood near all the COS amenities and shopping. The owners, Brent and Jenn are "on call" to do whatever it takes to make your stay comfortable! The pictures are what you get! Good visuals of this great vacation rental. We loved staying here... and our grandchildren loved it as well!! Thank you, Brent and Jenn!!

Perfect House and Location

Our family of 5 had a glorious stay here. The owners were very accommodating and responsive. The house was perfect, super clean, cozy, had everything we needed and more. There is so much character in this house. It is a quiet neighborhood and a perfect location to so many places. Jenn, the owner is so sweet and welcoming. Our kids were excited about the corn hole and giant chess game outside. We grilled out on the patio, had amazing family time, played games, and slept amazing in the super comfy beds. The shower upstairs was truly amazing. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing, bright, happy, safe environment that is conveniently located to everything we needed. I can't say enough about this place. Perfect!

Perfect Fit for our big family

We very much enjoyed our stay at The Turquoise Twin! The house had a wonderful layout - so much bigger than we thought! Fenced in yard with games - kids absolutely loved it! Kitchen was well stocked - it had every utensil we needed for our 3 day stay. Downstairs did get quite a bit cold at night but the extra plush blankets definitely helped. Property owners were very responsive and on stand by to address any concerns. I only wish there was a recycling service in the area - hate throwing all plastic/glass containers away :( The location could not have been any better for a tourist - lots of restaurants and grocery stores, minutes from highway. We had a great time staying at this property. It was definitely worth every penny!

Perfect Parents Weekend Home

The property was very clean, beds prepped well, everything was all tidy and neat! The kitchen was well equipped with necessities. We loved the main level shared bathroom because the shower was huge😀 my son loved the chess board and sitting outside to do his homework. My in-laws liked the basement bedroom as well. There was a living room in the basement which we didn’t get to use as we were all gathering upstairs. The laundry area was very clean as well. Highly recommended and will be booking again if we come in large group. Thank you Brent & Jenn Just a suggestion: perhaps would be good to update your folder giving more details where guests should throw the trash & recycling. We asked, they were prompt to response so it wasn’t a hassle at all. 👍

Great Stay and location

We stayed at this place last week and had a wonderful stay. Getting into the house was easy, and it was in a great location. Nice neighborhood, close to groceries, a gym for my husband, gas, and many great dining options. Also not far from all of the main attractions nearby and we felt we were in a very safe area. The place was very clean and tidy and everything was easy to access and utilize. The owners had lots of household items you would need which made it really nice. All of the bedrooms are very spacious and the beds are very comfortable. The downstairs shower head is a little short, so taller visitors would want to use the main floor shower, but it worked fine for me, and isn’t a complaint nor reason I wouldn’t stay here. The backyard is large and very well kept. Great if you are coming during the summer time for sure. If we ever return to Colorado Springs I would definitely stay here again! Highly reccomend.

Home away from home

We loved our stay in this beautifully decorated and clean home. Brent and Jenn really went above and beyond to make this rental feel like a "home away from home." The kitchen was fully stocked--including lots of left-over containers, a wonderful spice rack, fabulous knives, mixing bowls, baking dishes, and an extensive amount of pots and pans. We cooked our own meals while we were there, so it was really nice to have all of the conveniences of home! The beds were all VERY comfortable--even the twin was comfortable. Most vacation rentals we've stayed at have cheaper/older twin beds since they are typically for kids. This was not the case here! We all really enjoyed the wonderful backyard with the picnic table, giant chess board, and corn-hole. The foosball table in the basement was also a big hit! We really enjoyed our time in Colorado Springs. It is a beautiful city with so much to do and see!

Colorado Springs is beautiful and so is this house!

My husband and our 3 kids (ages 23, 18, and 14) stayed a week here. We were very comfortable in our sleeping arrangements. Very comfortable beds and blankets! We loved the king sized beds! The couches and chairs were more for style than comfort but there is so much to do in Colorado springs we didn't sit for long. The house is so cute, I loved the decor! The owners did a great job keeping this older house in good shape. It was very nice to have a backyard and grill to spend time outdoors. This house is about 20 minutes from most travel destinations but centrally located to shopping and restaurants. The grocery store is conveniently located in the same neighborhood! The owners went above and beyond to make sure our trip was a great one. Giving tips and ideas for sightseeing and travel plans was so helpful. I loved how the front door code was something that I could remember easily, is always tricky to remember a random code or look back to texts or emails to find it if you forget. Nice touch!

Super cute, functional, comfy and convenient!

This house worked perfectly for our family! My husband and I, along with 3 adult children stayed here when we came to visit our other son and his fiancé that live in Colorado Springs. It’s waaay bigger inside than you think when you first pull up. We played a lot of games at the kitchen table- some we packed, but they have a great supply (not to mention some backyard chess games😊)and cooked several meals. The kitchen was well appointed. The beds and bedding were all comfy. No issues with WiFi or streaming. We would definitely rent here again when/if we need the space. This would also work swell if you had preteens or teenagers, as the basement (with a killer football table) would be perfect for separation of kids and adults😉🙌🏻 The owners were very pleasant to work with and the door locking system is super easy to work and no keys to keep up with!!! The thermostat was a bit tricky to work, but I mostly chalk that up to our inexperience with the new age thermostat😆. It is a duplex, but we never once heard the adjoining neighbors. Thanks for a great stay!!
