Thank you for considering staying at our The Turquoise Door and More. We want you to have a great stay so, please, before booking please read the entire description. It should answer any questions you may have. We look forward to hosting you!

Detailed Description:
Upon arriving walk up three steps to enter the house using the provided door code. On the main floor you'll find two bedrooms, a bathroom, living room, dining area, and kitchen. There are extra blankets and pillows in each closet and luggage racks for your convenience. The upstairs bathroom has a large shower, towels, soap, conditioner, body wash, and hair dyer. The light and bright living room is a great place to relax with one of the many books we have in our mini-library or watch TV. The kitchen has plenty of counter space and is equipped with everything you need (minus food!) to cook a great meal. The dining area seats six at the table. The french doors in the dining room lead to a small patio with seating and gas grill. The private backyard is fenced and also has a patio table with six chairs. The is also artificial turf with corn hole. Downstairs, you'll find the master bedroom with king sized bed. The bathroom, accessible through the bedroom, has a shower and the same amenities as the upstairs bathroom. Across the hall from the master bedroom is the flex room that can be used as a 4th bedroom if needed. It has a closet, egressed windows, and doors for privacy.

The laundry room with washer and dryer (no extra charge!) is accessible through the family room and master bedroom. We are properly permitted in the city of Colorado Springs, permit #STR-0718

Things to Note:
This is one side of a duplex which means it shares a wall with the other side. The basement level can be cooler than the upstairs. We have plenty of blankets but bring a sweater in case you get cold. Three rooms are set up as strict bedrooms. The downstairs living room is a flex room that can be used a rec room or bedroom if needed. While the house can sleep 8 people, please note there are only two bathrooms and the water heater will likely not accommodate 8 back-to-back showers. (There are no bathtubs.) When both showers are running at the same time the water pressure will decrease slightly. We provide a generous starter supply of household goods such as toilet paper, tissue, and laundry/dish soaps.

Please park on the street in front of the house if possible (rarely someone else is parked there) or around the corner.

Lovely Updated place

Senior couple who stayed 4 nights and very pleased with quality of property. Very updated, bright and well equipped for guests- perks included coffee, quality kitchen items, lots of quality towels, huge shower, lots of blankets, comfortable beds. Basement is spacious with a large TV and game table. We grilled and relaxed on the deck. Within walking distance of grocery store, enjoyed eating at Lazy Dog restaurant nearby. So much to do, our 2nd trip in a year - Garden of the Gods is beautiful, hiked Seven Falls, took train to Pikes Peak, Manitou Cliff Dwellings and don’t pass up all the Royal Gorge adventures! Unexpected fun was the huge Scheels store nearby with a Ferris wheel inside and many wild game on display.

Clean home, wonderful beds in a safe, quite neighborhood

We came into Colorado Springs on our way to the University of Wyoming. We didn’t have any reservations because we didn’t know when we would be coming through. I messaged the host to see if we could rent her location. She was very quick to reply to let us know she could accommodate us. The home is in a quite, family neighborhood. We were pulling a small U-Haul trailer and felt safe unhooking it to drive around town. There is a grocery store and Starbucks nearby. The beds in the home were VERY comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked and had everything we needed. I definitely recommend this home for a family traveling to the Colorado Springs area.

Clean, comfortable, spacious, quiet, and conveniently located near USAFA for getting our daughter to I-Day. Helpful to have grocery store within walking distance. Good communication with host. Nice to have backyard and deck. Loved the kitchen! Beds were very comfy! We went for a family walk each night around the neighborhood block.

Quiet neighborhood with easy highway access. Short walk to the grocery store. Deceptively small looking outside, plenty of space inside.

Great place to stay!

I travelled to Colorado Springs with my husband and 2 year old and this spot was wonderful! Everything was exactly as advertised or better! Our little one loved the play area and it was so helpful to have a pack and play, baby gate and child friendly dishes. The neighborhood was a great place to take a walk and is located off of main road that has literally everything you may need from restaurants, grocery store, big box stores and gyms! You can tell a lot of thought and love has been poured into this property and wouid suggest it to anyone travelling to the area.

Top notch stay at the Turquoise Door!

Jenn & Brent are rockstar hosts! They went above and beyond to make our stay fantastic! Their time, effort and care into making us feel special was evident from booking to check out! It’s the cutest hip place ever: clean, comfortable, and very accommodating! Our whole family could enjoy our time together, under one roof, during our stay in Colorado Springs. We plan to return-and re- book the Turquoise Door on our next trip for sure! It’s a no brainer! We are blessed and grateful to have found such a top notch place!
