About this property

Cabin in the Pines, Artfully Renovated - Great Views - Quaint Green Mtn Falls...

Cabin has a gourmet kitchen (soapstone countertops/farm sink, induction cooktop), wide plank oak floors, and art/woodwork/metal sculpture/stained glass from local artisans. Renovations completed in 2016, with all new appliances (including washer/dryer combo unit), and new furniture. Gas fireplace and antique lighting. Free WiFi, Cable TV with loads of channels, DVR, and Netflix. Sleeps a MAXIMUM of four: king bed and sky light for star gazing in master, two twin xl that can be converted to king in 2nd BR upon request. Enjoy the fabulous views and garden from the pine tree shaded deck or the intimate covered patio out back.

A local craftsman, Dale White, did an amazing transformation, using beetle kill pine (blue stain) on the ceilings and built-ins. The home is only 750 square feet, but it feels much larger with the vaulted ceilings, open floor plan, and various built-ins. The cabinets are quarter sawn oak, and the kitchen table base is from an old boiler. The bathroom vanity is made from ancient bristlecone pine, with a soapstone sink/counter. I feel like the cabin itself is art, and I love being in it. I hope you will too.

Cabin is blocks from hiking trails, swimming pool, Green Mtn Falls lake, and restaurants. Green Mountain Falls is a quaint and quiet town. This cabin is a serene home base for touring the Air Force Academy, The Broadmoor, Pikes Peak, Manitou Springs, and many more of the nearby sites. The Pikes Peak region is a wonderful place for fishing, biking, and hiking. It's a dreamy place. Come and stay!

One of my favorite vacation rentals ever!
What a wonderful place! If I could give Lisa 10 stars I would! As someone who owns a short term rental, I really appreciate the extra steps Lisa put in to make our stay wonderful! We reached out to her very last minute due to needing to find a new place to stay after our previous rental was awful and not as pictured. Lisa quickly responded and was able to accommodate our last minute request for my family and I! Upon arriving she had a delicious apple pie waiting for us! Her cabin is absolutely AMAZING and I couldn’t love it more! We appreciate all of the kind hospitality and can’t wait to go back! Thank you SO much, Lisa!

Awesome getaway place!
Lisa was an excellent host! She made sure our check in went smooth and the cabin was stocked with everything we needed - plus more! You’ll love the fresh baked pie and when she found out we were celebrating our 40th Anniversary she also had a bottle of wine waiting! The location is convenient to so many attractions and shopping and restaurants. You won’t be disappointed!

As much as it would be wonderful to keep this a best kept secret so we can always go back, but it would be unfair to keep this from others! It was an incredible place to stay, beautiful cabin, beautiful setting, absolutely fantastic host in Lisa and so many great things to do in the area.

Fantastic place to stay.
This is by far the best place we have stayed. The location is beautiful and so is the cabin. It’s conveniently located near the town center and hiking trails. The host is wonderful and has a great guide book for the area. I can’t say enough good things about the cabin, lots of little joys await!

A beautiful retreat
What a beautiful retreat in the quaint town of Green Mountain Falls. The cabin was beyond amazing (one of the best Vrbo’s I’ve ever stayed in), the location could not have been better, and our host was fantastic. From the fresh baked apple pie that welcomed us to literally every other amenity you can think of….it was perfect. I highly recommend this property.

Ultimate Style, Comfort, & Hospitality
My husband and I stayed here on our honeymoon trip - Cabin in the Pines was an absolute dream. First, the cabin has been lovingly designed to strike the perfect balance between comfort and style. The furniture was very comfortable, and we loved the charm that the decor added to each room. But the true ‘wow’ factor that makes this cabin stand out is the owner’s superb hospitality. From the homemade apple pie and wine that greeted us, to the kitchen and restroom well stocked with every amenity, Lisa makes sure that you will have an enjoyable stay. Her communication is excellent and she even provides you with recommendations on dining and activities in the area. We had a spectacular experience and would visit again tomorrow if we could. I highly recommend Cabin in the Pines for your stay in the Manitou Springs/Pikes Peak area.

We have rented many different homes in Green Mountain Falls and Lisa’s home is by far the best ever! It’s over the top filled with her over the top hospitality! You could not feel more at home. Peaceful, beautiful, restful. We can’t wait for the opportunity to return. The delicious apple pie that awaits upon arrival doesn’t hurt either.

Spectacular Host!!!
We loved our stay here!! Lisa is a great host, best VRBO host we've ever had by far. House is very well stocked, there wasn't anything we wanted that wasn't available. I would defiantly stay here again, only about 15 minutes to all the local attractions with a calm peaceful environment. I have nothing but positive things to say about the house & the host!!

Cabin in the Pines-Best stay Ever!!
The Cabin in the Pines was such a great location to celebrate an anniversary. The cabin itself is beautiful, super clean & had everything in it that we could possibly need…..but the star to this little cabin is Lisa the host-she is a dream! After getting to know Lisa-this cabin is an extension of her-she made us feel right at home the moment we stepped over the threshold-the fresh, homemade apple pie waiting for us with a note hoping we had a great anniversary….She left very good details on local places to eat & sights to see. We will definitely return to Lisa’s cabin! By far - this was the best VRBO experience we have ever had.

Cabin in the Pines is absolutely lovely! The view from the front porch is beautiful! Every part of the cabin is thoughtfully and artfully designed to meet any needs you might have. Lisa, the host, is easy to reach and communicate with. We loved our time here and would definitely recommend it to anyone.

Fantastic home, great location, great host
We couldn't be happier with our 3 day stay. The house was beautifully finished and furnished, with far more supplies and cooking utensils than any other vacation rental we have used. The location was great for hikes out the door (in the hills around the little town of Green Mountain Falls) and also within a short distance. (We drove the 25 minutes up to Mueller State Park and enjoyed some of the 40 miles of hiking with great views of golden aspen trees and Pike's Peak). Colorado Springs is also 25 minutes down Rt 24. Finally, Lisa, the host, was perfectly gracious and welcoming... and responsive to any requests we made. The homemade apple pie was just the first of many caring touches. So, we will definitely stay there again when visiting the area.

Perfect family getaway
This is such a special place. Honestly the best rental we have ever stayed at. It’s clean, fully stocked, and is managed by the best host. Lisa was amazing. We all adored her but my daughter just loved her. The location is great for Manitou, Colorado Springs, or just hiking or staying at the cabin. Thank you again Lisa. We are already talking about coming back.

An absolute *dream*
Everything about The Cabin in the Pines surpassed my expectations. It was beautiful, comfortable, cozy, convenient, and completely relaxing to be in. The house itself was one thing, and then the town of Green Mountain Falls was more charming than we could have imagined. And then Lisa—she sets a new high bar for hospitality. The best cabin, town, and host you can imagine! Highly recommend for families with small children (or without!).

About the host

Hosted by Lisa

Host profile image
I truly enjoy sharing this charming mountain town with my guests. My gifts are creating comfortable and inviting spaces indoors and out. I also love hiking with my two dogs, gardening, baking, and visiting National Parks and seeing family at my Chicago roots. I have been a resident of our wonderful town since 1989.

Why they chose this property

Last year we purchased the cabin from our adopted Parents/Grandparents/Neighbors, after they could no longer come to the mountains to escape the Kansas heat and enjoy the mountains. The cabin was sentimental to both my two children and myself, and we couldn't bear to see anyone else own the cabin. So we decided to renovate it and host guests in the cabin. We hope we have made Gary and Phyl proud, and are as welcoming to you in this cabin as they were to us all those 28 years.

What makes this property unique

The Cabin has always been really charming on the outside. The deck with it's expansive mountain views is so relaxing. The covered patio off the kitchen with rock table and views of the garden is very intimate. The locals are kind and friendly, and I love my neighbors!

After we bought it from Gary and Phyl, we sought to make the inside as great as the outside. A local craftsman, Dale White, did an amazing transformation, using beetle kill pine (blue stain) on the ceilings and built-ins. The home is only 750 square feet, but it feels much larger with the vaulted ceilings, open floor plan, and various built-ins. The cabinets are quarter sawn oak, and the kitchen table base is from an old boiler. The bathroom vanity is made from ancient bristlecone pine, with a soapstone sink/counter. Local artist Doyle Svenby's metal work is on the kitchen wall and his metal art sculpture is out back. I've really enjoyed creating the gardens. It's my therapy. Martha Wheeler, has her pencil drawings displayed. And Dana Keys has a beautiful stained glass window in one of the bedroom doors. I feel like the cabin itself is art, and I love being in it. I hope you will too.
