The same caring, fun owners have been offering warm hospitality to their guests for 16 years. Awarded Frommer’s choice for “Best for a Romantic Getaway� since 1997.

This 1919 Inn was restored and opened in 1990 and is located in the heart of Manitou Springs Historic District, known for its icy-cold, naturally-carbonated, drinking Mineral Springs--it makes the best lemonade!
