Fort Carson Temporary Lodging
PCS to Colorado Springs?
If you are making a move to Fort Carson in the near future, you need to plan ahead! If accompanied, there are a large number of hotels and motels, with a wide variety of rates, located within a short distance of Fort Carson. Temporary Lodging Expense (TLE) can be paid for up to ten days, starting with the day you sign in.
The Colorado Inn, the post’s temporary lodging facility, is operated on a first-come, first-served basis. Reservations are accepted up to 60 days in advance. Families on valid orders are housed on a priority basis. Currently, there are 150 single and family rooms with efficiency units, non-smoking only. The cost per room is $37 a day for a single room, $47 a day for a double room, $57 for a DVQ and $2 for each additional occupant over 15. Children under 15 stay for free. For information or reservations call (719) 526-4832 or DSN 691-4832. The Colorado Inn operates 24 hours a day, and is located in Bldg. 7301 on Woodfill Road. (719) 526-3803
We have so many people that are moving in and out of Fort Carson that the Colorado Inn is often full. Make sure to plan ahead with your reservations so that you can minimize your expenses.
If you are planning to buy a home in Colorado Springs, a bit of pre-planning will save lots of money and stress in the long run. Do your research ahead of time. If possible, make an advance house hunting trip to the area. Read my previous post to learn more on that subject.
