Map & Owner's Profile
This park is basically your backyard and you have a good view of it and the mountains from your balcony. A gorgeous, grassy park with picnic benches, and climbing for the kids and serious climbers alike! This totally unique public amenity was conceived of by the developers of South Main and features a kids' Rocks and Ropes course as well as world-class authentic climbing boulders.
If you're a river person, welcome to heaven! There's a reason some world-class kayakers call South Main home. One of the longest and best whitewater parks in the world is just waiting for you. Suit up at your condo and you're on the water within 5 minutes of strolling out your door. Incredible!
Walk out your door and your crossing the Arkansas River within 5 minutes on this cool footbridge. From here, 100,000 acres of gorgeous public lands are all yours! Whether you're looking for a 30-minute hike with the best views in the valley or a mountain biker looking for epic single track, this is your access to the most unbelievable playground!
Easily South Main's most popular photo op, and for good reason! This whimsical, Alice-in-Wonderland-style living room is made 100% from tile and has great views of the river. Check out a video with the creator of this place here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTViZa1yeiA
Get some shopping done and enjoy the beautiful work of local artists and craftspeople, including gallery owner Nora Larimer.
Whether you're looking to shop organic clothing brands or pick up a guidebook or souvenir, be sure to stop by Mountain Bohemian!
Slip on their sheepskin slippers and you may never take them off again! Boots, hats, kids stuff and more are all handmade by the owners here in Colorado. Plus awesome gifts from other local craftspeople. Don't miss it!
It's very common to see a half a dozen kids atop this rock climbing boulder... often with their parents enjoying a beverage just across the way at Eddyline! Another boulder not to be missed by climbers
It's maybe 100 yards to the river from your door where you can enjoy a leisurely stroll along the extensive river trails right at the water's edge. Great fishing to be had all through here!
Organic and Fair Trade Coffees from around the world roasted right here at 8,000' in downtown BV! Not only the best coffee anywhere, but the best coffee in BV for sure. Read about the owners (Joel is BV's Mayor!) http://livefromsouthmain.com/2011/11/17/bv-roastery-opens-new-space-on-main-st/
A great option for breakfast lunch or dinner or fast, tasty coffee ($1.50 for their honor coffee). Daughter's Martini Bar is just around the side and serves the best cocktails in town plus a delicious dinner menu with gluten free options and Taco Tuesdays.
Stroll 2 minutes from your home to this BV hotspot! Award-winning ales and lagers brewed right here in BV with pure snow melt straight from Cottonwood Pass, just west of town! Wood-fired pizza and grill with great local food
Eddyline opened their taproom, expanded Brewery and Canning line at this location in order to expand their brewing capacity and open a canning line. You can fill a growler here, buy their Crank Yanker IPA in 6-pack pint cans and enjoy lighter fare with your brews. Read more and see photos: http://livefromsouthmain.com/2011/10/02/eddyline-brewery-opens-new-location-releases-1st-cans/
Another local's favorite dining option. That's right, great sushi in BV. Fresh and delicious in addition to great thai options including tasty curries and Pad Thai.

Spacious, hip loft with beautiful mountain views

Spending time in the loft with my grown children felt like we were all home together. It's a gracious and hip space with a touch of simple, tasteful luxury. Everything was quite clean and welcoming. I needed a few items in the kitchen to function while cooking there, as well as a few more blankets for cool mountain nights, and the office staff immediately ran out to purchase everything. Their service and attentiveness was excellent but with a very warm "neighborhood" kind of sensibility.

This is a wonderful place to stay when visiting Buena Vista...the finishes on the interior could not be more beautiful with lovely views out the windows. The South Main neighborhood has a great "feel" to it...we would highly recommend staying there when visiting the Buena Vista area and would love to return!
