Wonderful experience
We were looking for a quiet place to let our Florida kids experience snow. This location was perfect! The house had everything we needed. The views were beautiful, and the location is close to so many attractions. We would definitely stay again!

Great Family Getaway
My family joined me for my 50th birthday here. They are from Florida and were able to really experience Colorado as it should be experienced. The boys had so much fun playing in the snow and the house itself was conducive to long family dinners and time spent together. We loved it!

Awesome Family Getaway
Loved the property, beautiful views. It was perfect for our family of five. Very nice place…very simple decor (aka not a lot of breakable things for young hands to fiddle with). Literally 15-20 minutes max from all of the primary area sites. Would absolutely return, no doubt about it. We had a wonderful trip and made some great memories with this as our home base for several days.

Mountain Paradise
Rental was up the mountain a short way but once you got there what a nice retreat. Very private and serene with a great view. My wife and I decided to stock up on food and beverages and just eat dinner in every night since it was so nice and not have to drive back into town (Mantitou or Colorado Springs). Nice views in the morning and evening!

Great Vacation
The Kulsa home had more to offer than I would think. The view was impressive and everywhere we went to was so close by. My kids fell in love with Teddy, the neighborhood dog, who even showed us the way up the trail we were looking for. Katharine thought of everything a person might need being away from home. Thank you for making us feel welcome. We would definitely return.

We are moving!
Our family really enjoyed your house and location. The kids still talk about it a year later asking when we will return and if we will be moving to Colorado. We enjoyed all of the wonderful activities and even had a dog (which at first we thought was a bear) visit us one night while we were playing games. The vacation was one of our best and we hope to return some day with our seven children. Thanks for everything!

Kulsa House
We love the location and layout of the cabin. However, we felt like the property was getting run down, beds not comfortable, sofa dirty. Listed as sleeping 10 but beds for only 8. Two air mattresses had leaks and sofa bed was broken. Beautiful scenery. Glad we had 4-wheel drive vehicles.

Saved my vacation!
I contacted the owner with very short notice because the cabin I had originally rented was going to be unavailable due to emergency repairs. The owner was so accommodating and got my family set up with the cabin in a matter of hours. Crisis was averted and we had a wonderful time. The natural light streams through the large windows in the AM and the wrap around deck was great for morning coffee. While we were there my family went to Garden of the Gods, a wine tasting benefit, and hiked St.Mary's trail. Thank you for a wonderful weekend with my family.

Wrong date
My siblings and I stayed at this house from July 19 to July . 23. We found the house quite nice and have little negative to say. The lock box for the key was difficult to open. The huge windows lent to a beautiful view but provided blinding light during the morning. Perhaps some blinds? Very secluded and peaceful. Highly recommend.

Great Place, Great Location
We stayed here for a week during graduation for the Air Force Academy and what a great choice it was. There was everything you could need provided and with four bedrooms, one on lower level and one on the third level, (two on main level) plenty of privacy for everyone who came. For people coming to Colorado Springs to vacation, you couldn't ask for a better location. The cabin is off Hwy 24 and so is Seven Falls, Cave of the Winds, Manitou Cliff Dwellings, The Wolf Reserve, Old Town Colorado Springs, and Manitou Springs. Staying here you get the best of both worlds, tourist sites close at hand and staying in the beautiful mountains of Colorado. (Can you tell I'm going to miss Colorado now that my son has graduated!). I do hope to come back to visit and will definitely stay at the Kulsa House.

Nice house with a few issues
This was our first time visiting Colorado and enjoyed our stay but did have a few issues. The house is beautiful with mountain views but the house sits on a hill with a four lane highway below. You do hear the vehicles below anytime you are outside. The second issue we had was when it came time to refund our deposit. This was not because we were not entitled to it but that we did not rank very high on someone's priority list. After several failed attempts I had to resort to filing a formal complaint with VRBO before finally receiving a check in the mail. (a month after our stay)

Beautiful, Clean, Cabin in the Mountains
Katharine's Cascade cabin was an absolute delight. The home was beautiful, clean, spacious, and served us well for our family getaway. The view from both decks is breathtaking and provides a great hangout space for all. The cabin is located near the foot of Pike's Peak and is a small trek to get to, but once you make the drive a couple of times, it is rather easy to get to. Beware of deer though as we frequently saw them crossing the road to the home on a number of occasions. As expected with a home in the mountains, you definitely feel secluded, which is exactly what we were looking for. The home is filled with a ton of amenities and the kitchen is well stocked thanks to prior travelers leaving spices, sauces, coffee, etc. behind. Aside from the home, Katharine was an absolute treat to work with. She is so kind, communicative, and helped us out immensely with a last-minute request. The home is beautiful, and the owner is equal as great! If you are looking for a nice, relaxing, secluded stay this is your place! The home is very close to everything as well, so even though you can go to the home to getaway at night, you are a few short minutes from Manitou Springs, Colorado Springs, and Pikes Peak. We greatly enjoyed our stay and would definitely book again!

Beautiful House!
We had a wonderful time but the stay did not start well. There seemed to be a miscommunication between the owner and the cleaners. When we arrived on the check in day at about 5 PM the house was not cleaned from the previous tenants. Seems the cleaners did not realize the house was rented the week before us. We called the contact person Kim. She was very apologetic and quickly arrived with her crew to clean. Once we got past the cleaning the stay was everything we had hoped for. The house is beautiful and the vista is spectacular! We have just two small suggestions. First, the house has WiFi but an Internet connection is only available if you are an Xfinity customer; otherwise, you have to purchase a temporary account (per device I believe). Providing an Internet connection (cost factored into the rental price of course) would work better. Secondly, a TV in the upstairs main room would be nice. We had a rainy day and watching movies in the great room with a view of the misty mountains would add to the experience. All in all just a great vacation!

Need more kitchen towels and wash rags and clean pot holders. Stove top not clean. I worked on it because I didn’t want to be blamed for it. Recliner didn’t always work properly. Not that unhappy, but feel owner needs to have a talk with maintenance.
