Once a year, my husband and I take a overnight away while our son stays with family or friends. It was our second year doing this and we wanted a relaxing weekend without the drive. Cheyenne Mountain Resort was up the street. We did one night without our son, so we spent an evening eating at the buffet which had a wide variety and was delicious. Loved their homemade hot chocolate. Then spent a little time in the hot tub which was close to the room. The next day we did a couples massage in which the ladies were great and personable. It was a little expensive at the spa though the environment was great and the facilities were very accommodating. We then stay another couple of days after we picked up our son and we took him to the pool which was a little cold especially in the middle of winter. Honestly, we don't have cable so it was nice to throw on the robes, order some room service and watch some TV that we don't get at home. The resort itself is a little dated. You can tell it was built in the '70s, but it didn't bother us. We did our own excursions during the day instead of with the hotel since we were locals, so I'm unsure of how well the resort does on those. But all the facilities at the resort itself is nice and the resort is nicely located with a wonderful view away from the major part of downtown COS, but a nice 10-15 minute to downtown from HWY 115.
