Home away from home

Perfect accommodation for us, immediately feeling comfortable with a warm welcome from Kimberly. The area is within easy access to trails, restaurants and anyplace one wishes to visit. We drove the 1 hour 10 minute drive to Royal Gorge as well. Colorado is paradise and we hope to be back here at the Zen in the future.

It was one of the best trips i've had to date. The home is close to all the adventures we wanted to accomplish. Easy access to local food joints and stores. The snow the night we arrived really made the colors at Garden of the Gods pop, plus the drive is less than a mile away. Pikes Peak was amazing. Janine, the conductor was a star. ALWAYS ask for Janine if you can, she is passionate and knowledgeable beyond belief. Kimberly was so accommodating!! 5 stars. We will be back.

Beautiful quiet place

The location is great. The Garden of the Gods was 10 minutes away, Pikes Peak 15 minutes, Manitou Springs 10 minutes away. Place was very nice and tastefully decorated. The owner was so helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend this place. My family had a great time. I loved spending time on the back porch after very active day.
