About this property
Downtown BV 311 • Walk to Main + River • Sleeps 10
Stay in the heart of Buena Vista — park the car and walk. Main Street restaurants, coffee shops and shops are just around the corner, while the Arkansas River and South Main are an easy walk from the house.
Designed for families and groups, this three-bedroom home comfortably sleeps up to 10 and combines a spacious layout with one of the best locations in Buena Vista.
The main level features an open-concept Great Room where the kitchen, dining area, and living room flow together—giving everyone plenty of space to cook, gather, eat, and relax. The fully equipped kitchen is set up for real meals and group stays, and we provide locally roasted Buena Vista coffee along with tea to make mornings easy. The adjoining living and dining spaces make it easy to spend time together without feeling crowded. In-floor radiant heat throughout the home and a gas fireplace add an especially warm and comfortable feel during the cooler mountain months.
Upstairs are three comfortable bedrooms: a private King suite with ensuite bath, a Queen bedroom, and an oversized bunk room with four full-size beds. The home sleeps up to 10 guests across six beds, making it especially well suited for families, couples traveling together, and groups comfortable sharing beds. The Queen room and bunk room share a full bathroom with a large tub. Ceiling and/or floor fans are provided throughout the bedrooms for airflow and white noise for a more restful stay.
Guests have private access to the entire home, backyard and rear driveway throughout their stay. Self check-in makes arrival easy, and parking is available both along the street in front of the home and in the deep driveway off the rear alley. The rear parking area offers plenty of room for multiple vehicles and can accommodate larger vehicles and adventure toys. A propane grill is provided outside for guest use, with propane supplied.
Working remotely or staying connected? The home includes high-speed fiber internet and Wi-Fi.
Traveling with little ones? The home includes a Pack ’n Play with fitted sheets and a highchair.
Like many homes in Buena Vista, the house does not have central air conditioning. Our cool mountain evenings usually make open windows and fans very effective, and we provide ceiling and/or floor fans throughout the bedrooms for added comfort and airflow.
We’re happy to welcome up to two well-behaved dogs with prior approval. Please let us know before booking or bringing a pet so we can confirm the stay and arrange the applicable non-refundable pet fee. We simply ask that pets be kept off the furniture and that guests clean up after them outside.
Because we’re located in a residential downtown neighborhood, we ask guests to be considerate of our neighbors and observe quiet hours from 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM.
We want you to have a comfortable, easy stay and plenty of privacy to enjoy the home and Buena Vista at your own pace. We’re always available if you need anything during your stay and can be reached quickly by message or phone.
Need a little more flexibility? Early check-in and late check-out may be available depending on the surrounding reservations — just ask.
Traveling with a larger group? Our nearly identical sister property, Downtown BV 315, is right next door. Booking both homes creates a convenient setup for extended families, wedding groups and larger gatherings of approximately 16–20 guests.

Beautiful cottage, very clean, well stocked and so comfortable!! Loved that we could walk to restaurant’s and shops in Buena Vista’s quaint downtown area. We had 4 adults in our party but this place would be great for families with children. Our host made checking in and out so easy and when I realized I had left my glasses, they quickly mailed them back to me!
Host was very helpful and quick to respond, very clean and comfortable house with great outdoor spaces. Near great shops and restaurants. bathrooms and kitchen well stocked with many extras and essentials. Beautiful mountain views out the windows. We would definitely stay again when in the area.
The home lives bigger than expected. The house was very clean and had everything--every detail was thought of. We had a fantastic stay here. Location is great too!
Host was the most accommodating I have ever seen. House is beautiful! Everything you need is already there. Walk out the back door a few steps and you are on East Main. Great location. The river was only a short distance and a grocery less than a block away. Overall a great place!
This was the perfect place for a group of homeschool moms to celebrate the end of the school year. The property was very clean, spacious, and had everything we needed. Everyone had a place to sleep that was comfortable. Being so close to downtown, we could walk to get meals, explore shopping, and walking trails along the river. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect spot. Will definitely stay again for future visits.
We stayed for 2 nights. The rental was very clean and the location was perfect. You could walk easily to the downtown restaurants and shops. There were lots of beds so the sleeping arrangements were great.
Beautiful, stylish, clean, convenient and has everything you would like and need for your family. The location is quiet and convenient to main street. We loved our stay n have zero complaints. Thank you!
Location was great! You could walk to everything… restaurants, shops, hiking trail, groceries, liquor store. The house is very clean and comfortable. The sitting area in the back is a nice perk to have a private spot to relax outdoors.
Stayed 4 nights in May 2024
About the host
Hosted by Dan Berdelle
Meghan, Annabel, Millie, and I built our mountain 'downtown' home in Buena Vista in 2019. We fell in love with BV the first time we stayed in early 2016 and knew we had to become semi-permanent residents. We love the town, we love the people, and we truly hope everyone who stays at our place enjoys it as much as we do...
Why they chose this property
We were looking for the energy that downtown BV brings and the opportunity to build our own home in the middle of all the action was something we could not pass up.
What makes this property unique
Short Walking distance to everything you need in BV!
