Very comfortable and the hot tub area was really cute. Walking distance to shops. It was perfect for me and my two kids, but I bet it would also be great for a couple’s getaway. I would definitely stay here again.

Great spot for a short trip

This little place was cozy and perfect for a getaway! It has everything you need and the hot tub is great. The location feels very secluded, but it’s less that two blocks from the heart of downtown Manitou. I only got my car out once in four days and just walked everywhere. The hosts were very communicative and checked in to make sure I had what I needed.

Wonderful Stay at The Nest

My best friend and I had a wonderful girls weekend at The Nest. The space is perfect for two. We loved the patio area and soaking in the hot tub under the stars. Walking distance to downtown was a bonus! We'll be back!
