From the minute we opened the front door and entered the stunning vestibule and were warmly greeted by Kit, we knew we had stumbled upon a gem. The Rampart Range Resort is aptly named, for it truly is a resort / retreat from our normal day to day lives and average homes. This incredible house has the most amazing architecture, with nooks and crannies full of priceless art collections curated by Kit and Chris from all over the world for all to enjoy, stunning views of Pikes Peak and so much more. The rooms are grand yet warm and inviting, with amazing attention given to every little detail. Everywhere you turn there is something else to discover: A game room, a sauna, a workout room, and the bedrooms are each decorated with a unique theme. We reserved the most "modest" room, and it was twice as large as our living room at home! The bed was comfortable, with the best linen I have ever slept in. The carpets and throw rugs and towels are plush and luxurious. The concrete floors throughout the resort were heated and beautiful. There are water fountains and features throughout the home, with an international coin wishing well in the front hall. We made wishes twice. I could go on and on about this place. Suffice it to say that we made one of our own wishes come true when I made our next reservation as soon as I got home! And the breakfast? Kit and Chris prepared a three course feast for us, with the best coffee, tea and juices, fresh fruit, a sweet course and a savory course. Absolutely delicious! This Bed and Breakfast is relatively new and still undiscovered by many. I can assure you that it will soon become the destination of choice in the Colorado Springs area and that people will travel from around the globe to relax at our new...
Read moreRampart Range Resort was the surprise STAR of our 13 day road trip to South Dakota and Arizona. I had hesitated to book because it was new and had few reviews. When we walked into the peaceful water features, beautiful art and decor, and sweeping views of Pike’s Peak from the “great room” we were blown away before we even saw our room! |The room was HUGE - easily accommodating the king bed with plush linens (looking out at the mountain!), comfy sofa/coffee table sitting area, and table and chairs. We did not use the beautiful gas fireplace in July, but could imagine it only enhancing the atmosphere in cooler weather.|The bathroom included a spacious double sink vanity with every toiletry and amenity provided. A separate area for luggage and dressing with high quality towels and robes. A beautiful, separate shower room with rain head and hand held and a glass panel enabling yet another glorious mountain view was another luxurious surprise.|There was a private outdoor, furnished patio looking over the beautiful grounds and yes, the mountain!|In the morning, Kit prepared a multi-course, gourmet, delicious, breakfast in a private outdoor seating area. She was a gracious host and fun conversationalist, available and personable when needed but very unobtrusive.|We are an older couple and very experienced travelers who are not easily impressed. I rarely end up writing reviews, even when I intend to. Once this place gets known I fear it will be impossible to book and likely much harder to afford. This was on par with high-end, luxury rooms we have occasionally treated ourselves to. If you have the chance, forego the typical classic accommodations nearby folks - Rampart Range is where it’s at in...
Read moreWhat a truly impressive home; this is 5 star all the way. The home is beautifully decorated and represents its owner’s vast life. As hosts, you do not get more hospitable. Whether to escape the hustle and bustle or just looking for a local venue to stay; highly recommend you check out Rampart Range Resort B&B. We will be heading back at our first opportunity.
The rooms are luxurious & private. It is so beautiful inside and out. The art collection throughout the home is quite impressive and unique. Kit, Chris and Weasley are a must to meet. We had spent two previous nights at the Broadmoor; if I had known, how impressive RRR would be, we would have stayed all three nights at Rampart Range Resort B&B.
And the Breakfast in the B&B was prepared with love by Kit herself. I loved the fact that she pointed out, she can customize to our dietary needs for future stays. Fortunately, we did not have any, so her choice was simply: (not simply; other than simply delish!) Lemon Blueberry muffin topped with cream cheese whipped cream, warm mixed fruit compote, fresh avocado, cabbage, tomato slices, sausage, eggs clouds and hash brown casserole. We were served on an elegantly dressed table, nestled up against the fire place over looking Pike’s Peak. Above & beyond delicious breakfast and setting…be sure to take advantage of the breakfast portion of this B&B.
Lastly Weasley, is the sweetest golden doodle that made us feel right like with were with our fur babies. She is quiet, gentle and a very loving house mate.
Rampart Range Resort B&B is a must try Colorado Springs/Woodland Park B&B. You will already be planning when you can visit again...
