It is a beautiful example of how people lived in that time period. Not only is the house well preserved, but the grounds and gardens are especially beautiful. The tour guide filled in plenty of history on the family as well as living in Colorado Springs in that time period. Well worth the guided tour!!

This is more than just a house tour. It's a step back in time to early Colorado Springs history…read more The docent is very well educated and gives an entertaining lesson on Colorado Springs and many prominent early settlers of this area. In the home there are well preserved treasures that are worth seeing. General tours are adults 7.00 and children are 3.00. Senior Citizens are fairly cheap as well. Originally we didn't have time to stay for a whole tour but the docent gave us a nice taste of what was available. This would be an excellent tour for field trips of small classes. I would call ahead and see what rates are like.

It's about 75 miles or a 90-minute drive from Denver (depending on traffic), but if you have the extra time and don't want to drive or park, you can take a Bustang $12 fare South Line https://www.ridebustang.com/south-line bus into Colorado Springs and from there catch the $2 fare #3 shuttle into Manitou https://coloradosprings.gov/sites/default/files/rt3_spweb2018.pdf.
