The city of Manitou Springs is a home rule municipality located in El Paso County, Colorado, United States. The town was founded for its scenic setting and natural mineral springs. The downtown area continues to be of interest to travelers, particularly in the summer, as the downtown area consists of many one-story, adjoining, small shops, restaurants, and pubs, as well as a creekside city park with a children's playground made from unusual materials. Among other services, shops cater to tourist interests such as clothing, candy, souvenirs, and outdoor recreation.

This shop is well worth a visit if you're visiting Manitou Springs, and Christmas things aren't the only thing on offer either - there are plenty of other things to choose from. We found a room spray we loved, but unfortunately so did everyone else so it was completely sold out, however we were offered the tester bottle to take home free of charge which I thought was really exceptional customer service. We also found something else we liked and bought that too. Definitely worth having a look even in the summer months!
