The Broadmoor is a hotel and resort that has been a big part of Colorado Springs since the early 1900s. We recommend it because of its local influence and because they serve great brunch!

This trail is a short drive from the house and has a great view of the city. You can hike four miles around the rock or go straight up for the views.

This is the iconic mountain in Colorado Springs. If you are new to the high altitude, we don't recommend hiking the trail, but luckily they have the Cog Mountain Railway to take you to the top instead!

Shopping

This is a local hole-in-the wall shop that is actually a bookstore, gift shop, toy store, cafe, wine bar and restaurant all in one. It's one of a kind and owned by a husband and wife that have been very involved in the community. It's been around for almost 40 years and a must-see.

Sightseeing

These are really unique rock formations that you can drive up to and hike around. The trails are easy and fairly short; great for visitors. (The high altitude can make strenuous hiking difficult for some.) They also have a great visitor center with some exhibits on the history of the area.

Essentials

This Walmart is within walking distance of the house. Being a Neighboorhood Market means that it only sells groceries and pharmacy items. This is really convenient if you plan on making use of the kitchen!

This is a really cool hidden gem. After being refused by the art world for wanting to commercialize his work, this artist opened his own shop which showcases a miniature city from back in the day. For $5 admission ($3 for kids), you get popcorn, a scavenger hunt and can explore the town as long as you like. It's really intricate and full of surprises including optical illusions and talking projections. We highly recommend checking it out!
