Colorado Springs sits a little south of Denver and offers family-friendly attractions and mountainous surroundings. Whether you’ve come to explore the dramatic formations at Gardens of the Gods or the trails and views from other famed parks in the area, you’ll find the outdoor recreation opportunities to be endless. The food and shopping scene is fruitful, with a variety of cuisines and cozy stops at your disposal. Sure, you could stay at a surrounding hotel or resort, but these cool Airbnbs in Colorado Springs would be tough to pass up.

Jaws drop when one walks out onto the mountain facing balcony with a quaint bistro table for sunset dining.
