This fully restored Victorian cottage is situated on the banks of Cascade Creek which is part of the Pikes Peak watershed. Great views of the creek from windows in the sitting area and views of the mountain ridges from the wrap around porch and the sleeping loft.

The cottage is at the rear of a larger property; "big house", and is surrounded by old growth forest. The grounds: large trees, flower gardens, and a private creekside mini meadow are yours to enjoy. The cottage has a wrap around porch with chairs and a swing to gaze at the creek and gardens and an outside patio next to the creek with table, chairs, and charcoal grill.

The renovated cottage is really a "tiny house"( 500 sq ')with all space efficiently dedicated. There is a small sitting area, a dining area, compact kitchen (fully equipped with microwave, stove, dishwasher, fridge, and washer/dryer), small bathroom with shower, and a light-filled sleeping loft with large windows of the mountains, forest, and night sky. The babbling creek serves as a sleeping tonic.

Several trails are outside the front door-one of which, if taken to its limit, takes you to the summit of Pikes Peak. Wildlife, since Cascade is in the foothills, is common-bears, foxes, racoons, bobcats, and deer.
