Base your vacation from Olde Poste Cottage -- site of Cascade's old post office in the heart of historic Cascade, at the foot of the Pike's Peak Highway. This Victorian cottage, restored and furnished to reflect its genteel past, will return you to an earlier time in Cascade's history when folks came up Ute Pass to vacation among the mountain Ponderosa, away from the heat of the "lowlands" and bustle of city life. The livingroom walls display prints and photos of Cascade and Olde Poste Cottage from the Ute Pass Historical Society, as well as chronicling the drama of the American Post from the Revolution, through the exciting Pony Express, to the color and charm of the stamps and postcards found in today's U.S. Post Office. The cottage's three bedrooms are furnished and decorated so you can feel like you're at your home away from home.
Perfect for four adults and up to five kids, or three couples and three kids, this historical Victorian cottage will be your headquarters for activities in the Manitou/Colorado Springs and Teller County regions. There is much to do, close by and within easy driving. Across Highway 24, brown and rainbow trout can be glimpsed in fast-moving Fountain Creek. Only five minutes from the Station, Waldo Canyon beckons the hiker. Road bikers can join the Olympic bicyclists as they train, cycling up Ute Pass from Manitou to Cascade. Local bike shops also bus cyclists to the top of Pike's Peak, from which you can bike an exciting 19 miles down to the foot of the highway! Or you can take the Pikes Peak Highway by car -- just make sure your brakes are good!
