More Than Just Colorado Home Selling Help - Manitou Springs City Info
The towns website say’s it best:
“Manitou Springs, Colorado sits at the foot of Pikes Peak and is located 65 miles south of Denver, 4 miles west of Colorado Springs.
Hidden between Garden of the Gods and Pikes Peak, America's most famous mountain, lies the magical town of Manitou Springs. "Manitou," a Native American word for "spirit," describes this beautiful mountain community. Eleven named mineral springs throughout town are fed by the snows of Pikes Peak. Long before white men traveled here, the Ute, Cheyenne and many other natives considered this area sacred.”
