Amenities
Grundsätzlich bietet die Unterkunft alle Annehmlichkeiten, die für einen angenehmen Aufenthalt benötigt werden. Das Haus ist ruhig gelegen, sodass sich jeder, der ein paar Tage der Ruhe sucht, hier wohlfühlen wird. Ich habe alle Kritikpunkte direkt mit den Gastgebern kommuniziert. Sie haben diese zur Kenntnis genommen und sie haben sich nicht maßgeblich negativ auf unseren Aufenthalt ausgewirkt. <br/>Die Kritikpunkte waren ein Defekt in der Jalousie im Schlafzimmer, fehlendes Gas an der Feuerstelle, sodass diese nicht nutzbar war, und eine unzureichende Sauberkeit, die wir selbst beseitigt haben. Für uns war das jetzt nicht schlimm, allerdings sollte man bei dem Preis erwarten können, dass alles tadellos funktioniert und nutzbar ist. Sollte dies, wie in unserem Fall, nicht so sein, ist ein Entgegenkommen des Gastgebers oder zumindest ein Angebot seinerseits eine Selbstverständlichkeit.<br/>Auf unsere Nachricht bezüglich der Feuerstelle haben wir leider keine Antwort mehr erhalten.

This was the perfect location for our Colorado stay! So many hikes near by and only 45 minutes away from great adventures in Manitou springs and Colorado Springs. The cabin had everything we needed and was so cozy! It was quiet and peaceful and we had coffee each morning watching the deer and other wildlife. Way better than staying in a busy city! Highly recommended! Gracie

We loved our stay at Philips cabin! We are big hikers so the location was perfect for us…we hiked Garden Of The Gods in Colorado Springs, Seven Bridges in North Cheyenne Cañon, we took the Broadmoor Manitou And Pikes Peak Cog Railway up to Pikes Peak, and we hiked Horsethief Falls Trail right outside of Cripple Creek! If you are more into the city life and want to be close to town this area probably isn’t for you but if you love being secluded this is the one! The “yard” was a little unkept. Weeds got in the way of the fire pit but wasn’t a huge deal! Our only issue was that in the list of amenities it included an iron and ironing board. When we needed those items we could not find them, I messaged Philip and he said he would ask the cleaning lady and get back to me. I never heard back from him. Also, the blinds in the main bedroom are broken so you can’t raise them to let in sunlight, also not a huge deal but wanted to add so it may be fixed! Overall I would recommend this cabin!
