Good to know

Thank you for considering The Turquoise Twin. We're committed to ensuring you have a fantastic experience, so please take a moment to read our detailed description in full, which should address any questions you might have. We're looking 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 with king beds (the second bedroom also has 2 twins), 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 on the Smart 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. There is also turf with corn hole and a giant chess set. 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. In this room, you'll also find a sofa bed, TV, games, and foosball table. Please note the fireplace is inoperable. 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-0862 Things to Note: This is one side of a duplex which means it shares a wall with another unit. The basement level can be cooler than the upstairs. We have plenty of blankets but pack accordingly if you get cold. Three rooms are set up as strict bedrooms. The downstairs living room is a flex/family/rec room that can be used as a bedroom with a sofabed 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. It's not an issue for most people but worth noting! We provide a generous starter supply of household goods such as toilet paper, tissue, and laundry/dish soaps. Parking: Please park on the street in front of the house if possible (rarely someone else is parked there) or around the corner. Uncontrollable Circumstances: No refunds will be given for events outside of our control including but not limited to electrical outages, internet outages, city water shut offs, weather, and any other disruption outside of our control. Quirks: While the house has been updated and maintained, it is not a brand new home. The floors squeak a little, the tile in the upstairs bedroom is older, ect. Please book with the proper expectations. 😊 Location: Colorado Springs has no shortage of things to do! The Turquoise Twin is centrally located with quick access to I-25, Academy Blvd and Woodmen Rd making it easy to get around town. •10 minutes to the Air Force Academy and Pro Rodeo Hall of Fame •15-20 minutes to Garden of the Gods, downtown, Old Colorado City, Glenn Eyrie Castle, Space Museum, and Olympic Training Center. • 20-25 minutes to Manitou Springs , Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, Cave of the Winds, and Manitou Cliff Dwellings. • 25-30 minutes to entrance of Pikes Peak, The North Pole, Green Mountain Falls, and Woodland Park. While we are located in town, an encounter with a dangerous animal is unlikely but not impossible. Such animals include (but not limited to) bears, rattlesnakes, poisonous spiders, mountain lions, coyotes. An internet search can tell you all you need to know about the flora and fauna of Colorado Springs! Lease Agreement: By booking this property you are agreeing to the rules and lease agreement listed in the rules section. Guest/Host Interaction: This is a self-check in property but we are dedicated to making your stay a 5-star experience. Please message us immediately if there are any problems and we will do our best to correct them in a timely manner. We live in the neighborhood but like to give guests their space. We keep to ourselves but are happy to assist if needed! Our goal is that you have a peaceful relaxing stay.

Other Details to Note

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. The basement level can be cooler than the upstairs. We have plenty of blankets but bring a sweater in case you get cold. We provide a generous starter supply of household goods such as toilet paper, tissue, and laundry/dish soaps.

It was a great place for visiting our son at USAFA! So much to do at and around house! All amenities we needed, plenty of towels, toilet paper, soap, laundry detergent and dishwasher pods! Excellent stay for our family!

We booked this location at the last moment. Brent was prompt with check in information and made it easy for us to transition from the hotel. The home is immaculate and well stocked with all the everyday items you will need. Location was ideal for us. Would definitely look at staying there again as we will be in town more often over the next few years.

The house was very clean and easy to find. It is very spacious and can host a lot of people comfortably. The check in/ check out was seamless. The neighborhood was quiet and safe. Close to grocery stores, restaurants and gas stations. I would stay here again and recommend it to anyone who wants to stay in a comfortable home with lots of space.
