Walk Downtown | Single-Level 1BR | Yard + Grill

Summary:
Step off the front porch and the mountains are right there on the horizon. This is a single-level downtown basecamp with nothing to climb: coffee at Loyal and dinner on Tejon a five-minute walk, Garden of the Gods twelve minutes out, and your own fenced backyard waiting with a grill. Inside, a real kitchen, an electric fireplace, and a desk wired for work make it a home you settle into for a weekend or a month. The police station is across the street, and everything else is a short walk.

The Space:
This is the easy one. Everything on a single level, nothing to climb, and the moment you step out front the mountains fill the skyline. You walk five minutes to coffee at Loyal and dinner on Tejon, spend the day out at Garden of the Gods or the foot of Pikes Peak, and come home to a fenced backyard that is yours alone, the grill ready and the fireplace waiting inside.

At a glance:
- Queen bedroom plus a living-room sofa bed, sleeps 4
- Single level, no stairs, private entrance
- 2 blocks to the downtown core, about a 5 minute walk to Tejon Street
- Private fully fenced backyard with a BBQ grill and outdoor dining
- Full kitchen with a dishwasher, electric range, Keurig, and a table for 4
- Electric fireplace, desk with wired ethernet, ceiling fans
- Window AC unit plus portable fans (no central air), central heat
- Bathtub and shower, high chair; travel crib on request
- Free parking on site plus free street parking with the city permit
- Laundromat on the block (no laundry in the unit)

It is the kind of place people mean to book for a weekend and end up keeping for a month: a kitchen you actually cook in, a desk on wired ethernet for the workdays, and a quiet block directly across from the police headquarters where no one worries about the car. A few honest things, because this is an older building: the floors creak, the window AC runs loud, and there is no central air. Spotless and well run, just not a luxury build.

Guest Access:
The whole single-level home is yours, including the fenced backyard, the grill, and the private entrance.

Parking is the part worth reading twice: you have free parking on site, plus free street parking out front using the city permit that hangs on the hook in the living room (please put it back at checkout).

If the front spaces are taken, the lot directly west of the property needs no permit at all, so you are never stuck circling.

The Neighborhood:
You are two blocks off the downtown core, just south of S Tejon Street and directly across from the police headquarters, which is what makes leaving a car out overnight a non-issue.

Walk to Loyal Coffee, Phantom Canyon Brewing, the COATI food hall, and Poor Richard's, with 420 Pizza close by for an easy dinner and the Pioneers Museum about a block away. The sights are a short drive: the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Museum about 5 minutes, Pikes Peak Center 6, Garden of the Gods about 12, and Old Colorado City, Red Rock Canyon, and Seven Falls about 15. The Pikes Peak Highway entrance is about 30 minutes.

Getting Around:
You are close enough to leave the car parked: the downtown core is two blocks away and Tejon Street dining is about a 5 minute walk. You have free parking on site and free street parking with the city permit, plus the no-permit lot directly west as backup. For the sights you will drive: Garden of the Gods is about 12 minutes, Old Colorado City and Red Rock Canyon about 15, and the Colorado Springs Airport (COS) about 25. Bus stops and quick rideshare pickups are nearby, and major highways are minutes out.

Other Things to Note:
A few honest things up front. This is an older building: floors and bed frames creak, the windows show their age, and the shower takes a moment to find its temperature. Cooling is a window AC unit plus portable and ceiling fans, not central air.

The window unit works but runs loud, so switch it on when you arrive rather than waiting, since more than one guest did not spot it at first.

Heat is central.

No laundry in the unit, though a laundromat is on the block, and a travel crib is available on request.

The ice maker is not hooked up, so we leave ice trays.

Comfortable and well kept, just not a luxury build.

Interaction with Guests:
We answer fast through the app and fix things in person: a bathroom blind was repaired mid-stay, and when a long-stay guest hit a health emergency, our team stepped in.

Ask us for the local list, we point people to Loyal for coffee and 420 Pizza for an easy dinner.

A week or a month works well here, so send your dates and we will set a custom rate.
