Adventure Awaits!!-5 min from downtown and parks

Located just steps from the Arkansas River, Royal Gorge Train Depot, Centennial Park, and historic Main Street, this recently updated 3 bed/1 bath home is perfect for the family or small group ready to explore the adventures Canon City has to offer! Hit the nearby hiking/biking trails, go on a white-water rafting or kayak exhibition, or visit the highest suspension bridge in the US. Don't forget to check out the great local restaurants, breweries, and winery or just enjoy the great back patio!
The space
This cozy Colorado cottage offers the amazing comfort and great amenities needed while adventuring in the mountains. Lots of great natural light creates a super inviting and bright space.
The open living and dining areas are perfect for sharing meals, relaxing with a movie, or having game night with any of the variety of board games located in the front closet. The kitchen has all the basics for preparing home cooked meals: dishes/bakeware, utensils, spices/dry condiments, even a crockpot and microwave with air fryer! This property does not currently have a dishwasher, however bamboo drying rack and all supplies provided for super quick and easy cleaning and paper products are also available. The full bathroom is stocked with basic toiletries, super soft and absorbent towels and plenty of space in the mirrored medicine cabinet and under sink storage. Next to the bathroom on the main floor, the beautiful custom barn door opens up to the master bedroom with a rustic wood Queen bed and dresser and a huge closet with lots of storage space.
Off the dining room, the door opens and staircase leads to the upper floor with two additional bedrooms. The first, a loft-style bedroom- includes a TV and lounging area (perfect for kids) with twin bed and trundle underneath. The closet has been converted into shelving space for storage. The second upper level room is even more spacious, with a Queen bed, and small dresser. Both rooms have brand new window AC units with remotes.
Enjoying the great outdoors in Colorado is easy in this backyard! Beautiful landscaping, lots of open space for yard games and taking in the sunshine and fresh air. Check out the shed behind the garage for extra chairs, yard games, baby hiking backpack, and more for use during your stay. The patio setup creates the perfect place to BBQ and watch the sunset over the mountains.
No matter what adventure you seek, this cottage offers an incredible location and fun space to truly enjoy and create amazing memories!
Guest access
Private driveway offers several parking spaces and direct access to both the covered front porch entrance and fenced backyard with entry and mud room. Street parking is also available directly in front of the property.
Other things to note

Wonderful, from a local!
I’m a local who lives in town. My grandma came to stay and my house is not accessible for an elderly person so we booked her a separate place to stay. There is a queen bed and a bathroom on the main floor and very few steps, she did great with her walker. The house is small but very cute. We cooked a few meals and all of the utensils and pans we needed were there. The backyard is a great place to hang out Located close to all the fun things in town. Short drive to the Royal Gorge, maybe 15 minutes. Highly recommended!

convenient location
Ideal for 2 adults with ready access to main areas of Canõn City & Royal Gorge area. There is only one small bathroom which was fine for the two of us but could be problematic if additional adults were present. The grounds are nice with lots of flowers & an area to sit out back (weather permitting).

Great place for families
Wonderful stay in Canon city. Very comfortable home for my family of four (including two teens who loved having their own space upstairs). The home had everything we needed. It’s located in a quiet, residential neighborhood. The owner was kind and easy to communicate with. Close to the Royal Gorge railroad, downtown area and only about an hour from Cheyenne mountain zoo. Highly recommend.

I needed a place to rest and recover from cancer treatments while my spouse could work remotely and this home provided everything and more than what we expected. A spotless and fully stocked home, close to the river with beautiful walks and bike rides, we’ve never been so happy and look forward to staying here again. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home.

Fit the bill for family fun
Had a nice stay with our 3 young kiddos (6, 4 and 1). Older boys loved the loft area, and place was close enough to the park and downtown for some fun. Place was clean and quaint. Could’ve used a few staples (Kleenex, garbage bags and laundry detergent) but we made due otherwise. Close to downtown but if you’re bringing kids you’ll want a stroller to get little legs there without complaints. A baby gate would be a bonus to make the loft more user friendly but we were happy overall.

We really liked the place. The house is comfortable and cosy. It is a quiet community with tourist places nearby, a variety of restaurants and supermarkets a few minutes away. Michael was friendly and helpful. When we return to Cañon City we plan to rent the same place.

Great house in great location. About 15 min from the royal gorge and walking distance to restaurants. Walking seems weird in a town with the highest security prison in the country but I felt save walking lol! Great little house, great location, and great outdoor space.

Couldnt as for more!
This property couldn't be any more perfect! I have never stayed at a property that has so many extra amenities. All the small things provided by this property are such a nice touch. The kitchen had everything we could have needed. There were outdoor games and water toys in the shed. The upstairs is larger than it appears in the pictures, not to mention each room upstairs has its own AC unit! This place would comfortably sleep 6 adults. The neighborhood is quiet, and the house is in a perfect location. There is a beautiful park, free splash pad, the Royal Gorge Train, and river access within a short walking distance. Downtown is a short walk as well, with many local restaurants and coffee shops. The property owner was AMAZING to deal with. We ended up having a member of our family go to the hospital and have to stay there overnight. We weren't ready to travel home and needed an extra night staying at the property, and Michael was amazing to work with. This will be the only place we stay when visiting Canon City. See you soon!
