Map & Owner's Profile
Fabulous Views 1 Mile from Salida
Year Purchased: 2007
Why the Owner Chose Salida
We fell in love with Salida for so many reasons. The weather there is so much warmer than where we live ( Breckenridge,Co) yet we are only 75 miles away. The ambiance in Salida captured our hearts immediately. All of the great art galleries and restaurants are definitely a plus. We love the "high desert" scenery. Our home has unparalleled "views" that attracted us to this particular home. The proximity to Monarch ski area helped us decide on Salida!
The Unique Benefits at this House
Incredible views can be enjoyed form every window in our home. The view of Monarch Pass from the front huge window of the house are extraordinary! Wildlife is everywhere, especially mule deer. While the feeling of the home is "countryish", Salida's downtown area is only 1.5 miles away. The roads in our neighborhood are all paved- perfect for walkers. Just down the road is Sand Lake - a small lake with plenty of geese and ducks for the little ones to feed. This lake is also stocked with trout.
Owner's Map of Salida
Dave and I are recently retired and live in Breckenridge, Co. He worked as an attorney for 35 years and I worked in healthcare. We are hoping to spend more time in Salida now that we are able. We are motorcycle and bicycle enthusiasts. Our winter interests include alpine skiing and nordic skiing. Opportunities for all of these sports are abundant in the Salida area.

This was our second stay at the owner's home. We loved being familiar with the community and the home and it's features. We'd choose this place again. No problem getting around with snow covered streets either. House is clean, cute, comfortable and well maintained. Views are gorgeous.

This house was fabulous. Clean, well stocked and great mountain views. The owners were very nice to work with. We drove to Monarch each day to ski. The drive is about 30 minutes so this is a great location to be near restaurants, downtown and skiing.

It was a great house - we loved the views and had a wonderful time. The owner's suggestion places to get good and healthy food in area were perfect. We loved the Ploughboy for locally grown fruits and vegetables. We cooked at the house often and found the kitchen was really well set up.Also loved Laughing Ladies Cafe and the Cantina by the river. The house has a great layout and the entire place was very spacious and inviting. It definitely met our expectations.

We stayed in this house last week. It was our second trip to Salida so we're getting to know the area well. The house is in a great location with very nice views. It's in excellent condition and matches the pictures. The owners know how to manage rentals very well which avoids hassles we've had in other rental houses.

We stayed in mid-June for five days and had a terrific experience. The house was perfect for us (four adults, three children ages 11, 6 and 4). There are plenty of spaces in the house to retreat to if you feel you need some quiet time. The kitchen and dining area were quite serviceable to our needs; we were able to cook up some great meals. We spent a day soaking at Valley View Hot Springs just south of Villa Grove (interesting place because it's clothing optional), some time shopping in Salida and enjoying the charm, and an afternoon at the Aquatic Center which is very nice, especially if you have kids in tow. The menfolk opted to hike up Shivano one day (a 9-11 hour adventure) and we all hiked together in the Chalk Cliffs on Princeton. We've spent much time in the BV area, but had never stayed in Salida - glad we did. It's a beautiful Colorado mountain town. The house more than met our needs and the amazing views were a treat. Thanks for a great stay!

This property was great for my whole family. The house is so spacious with so many different levels. There's a place for everyone to be comfortable together or to get away from each other. Everything was very clean and organized. We loved the convenient location and enjoyed watching such tame mule deer every morning and afternoon right outside the door. We loved the very homey atmosphere and working with such nice owners that went above and beyond to accomodate us.

We ended our Colorado holiday in this house and it was wonderful. The views from the deck are truly magnificant especially at sunset. The house is very comfortable and everything you could need is provided. It is nice to be near Salida but to have the quietness of the countryside. We hope to be back.
