Clean and very nice
This was a terrific place to stay. It was incredibly clean. The only suggested adjustment...it's pretty normal to not have AC at the higher elevations in CO. But if you're not going to have AC, please at least place screens on the windows so that at night the cool air can circulate through the house without bugs. Some nights it was a bit like camping given the bugs. Honestly, though, that is the only non positive comment, as the home was so clean, new, beautiful, well-stocked, everything worked, and it was incredibly convenient. We would stay here again, and we likely will. We'll be a lot happier with window screens! Thank you!

Lovely Place on the River Walk
We enjoyed our stay in BV! The location was super walkable and we enjoyed doing the river loop hike and fly fishing on the river. The townhouse had everything we needed and we very much appreciated the game closet!

Host profile image
We are Shane and Amanda Glazier. Shane and his family have been visiting this area of the mountains since he was born! Now, we are carrying on the tradition with our kids.

We enjoy everything from hiking, mountain biking, surfing the river, and climbing to relaxing at Mount Princeton Hot Springs, feeding the chipmunks at St. Elmo and feeding the trout at the Chalk Cliff Fish Hatchery.

We adore Buena Vista and can't wait to hear about your adventures in this quaint, unique mountain town.

Thanks so much for choosing us and we hope to welcome you back soon!
