General Information

Red Crags is a magnificent 4-story 1880's Victorian mansion and Carriage House. The main house, over 7,000 square feet, dominates the 2-acre estate. Prominently situated on a bluff, the unique views include Pikes Peak, Manitou Valley, Garden of the Gods and the city of Colorado Springs. High Ceilings, hardwood floors and beautiful antiques predominate. It is a place to lose yourself "somewhere in time". Walk through the beautifully landscaped grounds and herb gardens, or sit and relax in the outdoor Jacuzzi.
