6250 Coffee Pot Rd., Manitou Springs, CO 80829

Perched around 9,000 ft beneath Cameron Cone, this Colorado-sourced log retreat surrounds you with towering pines, the sound of a seasonal waterfall & creek, and peak-a-boo views of the twinkling city lights. Ericsson-spruce logs (milled from Wolf Creek Pass) frame an open main level where a wall of windows pulls the outdoors in, a crackling wood stove chases off winter chill, and the kitchen’s stained-glass cabinets and live-edge bar add a handcrafted flair. Upstairs, the loft-style primary suite offers sunrise views, a claw-foot tub, and a cozy wood stove. Two more bedrooms plus a versatile walk-out lower level handle guests, gear, or a dedicated home-office with ease. Step outside and you border Pike National Forest—wander straight onto the trails or explore Crystal Park’s private trail network with over 20 trails that have maps, stocked trout pond (which doubles as a skating rink in the winter), seasonal heated pool, clubhouse, sledding hill, tennis & pickleball courts, a full basketball court, a sand-volleyball pit, playground, on-site fire station and helipad, plus trash, road maintenance, and snow removal (yes, the plow really does reach the top because they live on-site!). Wildlife is plentiful—mule deer, foxes, wild turkeys and more—while Garden of the Gods sits 25 min down the hill, Cave of the Winds 20 min, the Pikes Peak Cog Railway 18 min, and Downtown Colorado Springs is 30 minutes away. Colorado Springs Airport is roughly 40 min away; Denver International about 1 hr 30 min (depending on traffic). Manitou Springs’ eclectic shops and cafés are a quick 20 min run for lattes or groceries. Crystal Park is a gated, year-round community with an active social calendar when you want it and plenty of elbow room when you don’t. Whether you’re planning a full-time high-country lifestyle or a breathe-deep weekend basecamp, 6250 Coffee Pot Road delivers the quintessential Colorado mountain experience—scenery, serenity, and adventure on tap.
