Frommer's Review
Nestled in the quaint Pikes Peak mountain village of Cascade, 10 miles west of downtown Colorado Springs, this Victorian B&B gives guests an opportunity to see the city and get away from it all in the same day. Originally built in 1885 as a resort hotel, this property has a storied history that includes a stint as a boarding house before becoming a guest inn in 1988. Today it is a favorite of vacationers who want to be within striking distance of city attractions, but whose main interests lay in the Rockies.
The parlor holds a bay window, a fireplace, and antiques. Most of the inn's large rooms feature 10-foot ceilings, and all provide plush quilts and remarkable views. The Marriott and Eisenhower suites feature original furnishings and a plethora of antiques, and the cottages offer VCRs, fireplaces, and spacious bathrooms with whirlpool tubs.
Breakfasts include freshly baked breads, pastries, and entrees such as soufflés or frittatas; gourmet dinners are available with advance reservations. The mountainous pine scenery of the Pike National Forest surrounds Eastholme, and stargazers love the views from the second-floor balcony, free of the light pollution of Colorado Springs. Guest amenities include a wedding gazebo, shared kitchen, and library. Smoking is not permitted.
