This was a great location right between Salida and Monarch Mountain. The home had everything we needed to sleep and cook for 5! Would definitely come back and highly recommend.
Perfect place to relax and feel like you have the whole mountain to yourself. The pond and stream are very comforting. Hiking trails all over the property are great! The house itself is very beautiful, and has everything you need and more.
Everything was picture perfect. We loved it so much we have booked another stay already. Best part was the back "yard." Couldn't have asked for a better view.
The pictures online are fabulous, but when we arrived and walked out on the back patio, we could not believe how gorgeous the property is! We had a great time exploring and relaxing outside. We loved that it was close to trails and spent several days exploring those trails. The location makes you feel far away from everything, even though it is just a quick trip into town for anything you could need or want.

Thanks for the great description of the house - sounds like you really enjoyed the outdoors while you were there! So happy you enjoyed your time at the Retreat and we hope you have a chance to come back in the future!
Property was perfect for a relaxing getaway! The views from the entire back side of the house were amazing and I can’t imagine how cool it is in the summer!
Had a great weekend tucked in the mountains! The house was clean, open, and perfect for us. We went to town once and spent the rest of the weekend just relaxing by the river. Will stay again!
