LOVED our stay! From the beautiful views, great property, and clean cabin, to the wood fires we enjoyed and hot cocoa welcoming gift, we had a blast! My kids especially loved the arcade game machine in the basement, the house was fully stocked with extras, and even our dogs were welcomed! Thank you for letting us enjoy the cabin! Highly recommend to anyone needing a getaway in the mountains!

We had an absolutely amazing time! We had so much space for our family of 5 plus our mother in law. We really enjoyed our time. We had everything we needed just brought food to cook! Our kids absolutely loved the games and play space. The area is beautiful. And we drove to Breck for the day and it was an easy drive!

Beautiful cabin

The cabin was perfect,such a beautiful place. Not hard to get to and an easy drive home each night after adventuring all day. The sunsets were very pretty right off the deck and deer every morning.

Great place in the woods!

We loved your family trip to Buena Vista and this house was great! Nice that it was remote but also easy to get into BV or drive to Salida. Would definitely recommend this house to others! We appreciated the toiletries and basic pantry items provided too! Our kids loved the old school video game and playing outside.

About the host

Hosted by Terry & Ronnie

Host profile image
Hi guests!!! We're the owners, Terry & Ronnie....THANK YOU for checking out our little log cabin! We take great pride in our little place and are so thankful we get to share it with others. We do all of the cleaning ourselves to make sure everything is just right for your stay. This cabin has been Mr. Terry's labor of love since he retired. The cabin is close to everything but far enough away from the city life. We really enjoy our time here being in nature and the mountain views. Don't forget about the stars! Warm your toes by the wood stove and enjoy the stars from the couch ! The cabin is away from city lights so on a moonless night the stars are everywhere! Spend a little time looking up and hopefully you'll see a shooting star. We've seen lots! It's a great place to cozy up after a day of skiing or hiking, or tackling that 14er, or whatever your wandering takes you.
We know many guests want to bring their 4 legged love ones with them to the cabin. Please reach out to us for any concerns regarding the size of your dog.

What makes this property unique

Close to everything but far enough away! Mountain views, wood stove and big windows surrounded by all the comforts of home!
