About this property

Peaceful Mountain getaway, 3 bath, Spectacular views! Coffee in the cupboard!

We are delighted to share our mountain home with you! We are nestled in the country with amazing views of 14,000' mountains. We are a short 10 min. drive to the town of Buena Vista, which you can see from our home. You can enjoy a cup of coffee on the patio and relax with sweeping views looking down the valley to the Sangre DeCristo mountains. We have raised our family in this home and have created many fond memories, as you will too! Because of the great location there is so much to do in our area; mountain biking, hiking, rafting, horseback riding, ATV excursions, Jeeping, skiing, paddle boarding, swimming at the Hot Springs, leisurely walks by the Arkansas river, and fishing. Our home is located very close to a trail head if you are interested in a day hike and easy access to the Colorado Trail. We love the views from inside our home too!

We have 4 bedrooms, 3 baths and plenty of space to kick back and relax. Our home has an open floor plan with a spacious kitchen open to the dining and living room areas. We have plenty of items for your use in the kitchen to cook up some of your favorite meals! You will also enjoy vaulted Aspen ceilings throughout the house that give it a cozy mountain feel.

Our quaint little mountain town of Buena Vista offers unique shopping, relaxing coffee shops, yummy restaurants, kid friendly parks, river walk paths, and many churches to choose from. We have an information center here in our home for you to check out the many activities and options for your family as you take in all our valley has to offer. To the north of Buena Vista you can check out Twin Lakes which is absolutely beautiful! There you will find hiking, fishing, boating, and breathtaking views of the tallest mountain in Colorado; Mt. Elbert. The historic town of Leadville is also to the north where you can enjoy a scenic train ride or take in the Mining Museum. The artsy town of Salida is to the south of Buena Vista. You may also want to enjoy a day at Mt. Princeton Hot Springs which is truly a fun Colorado experience! If you happen to be here during the winter months you can enjoy snowmobiling, cross country skiing, snow shoeing, or downhill skiing. We have 3 ski resorts within an hour of our home! Ski Cooper, Copper Mountain and Monarch. If you want to drive just a little further you can ski at Breckenridge, Keystone, Vail, Beaver Creek or ABasin.

Awesome house for a hiking group!

Both the property and the property owner are fantastic. We had a wonderful experience. Well stocked kitchen, amazing views, great patio, great location. If you are planning hikes in the mountains, wanting to hang out in the valley, or both, this place is wonderful. This will be our first choice for future trips!

Great location and views

If you’re planning a stay around the Buena Vista area this is a great place. House had everything we needed. Driveway big enough for two full size trucks with 20’ trailers. Easy to pull or back in. Easy to get to and short drive to town. 40 minutes to St Elmo trailhead and about 50 to Taylor Park. Be sure to stay up and check out the stars, amazing view. Enjoyed watching multiple wildlife around the area. If we ever come back to this area would stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Deana Wik

Host profile image
My husband and I grew up in the midwest and moved to the Buena Vista area in 2002. Our daughter was only 7 at the time. We have loved living in the mountains and became connected with our community and church family very quickly. As a family we love to snow ski together, bike, play games and go to Denver Bronco games! Sharing life with many dear friends here in the area have been a highlight for us.

Why they chose this property

We love living in the country here in the mountains! When we purchased this property we were excited to be so close to town and yet out of town. It has been a wonderful home to raise our family in and have many special friends come to visit us from across America and around the world. It is a special place to us because of all the wonderful memories we have created with friends and family in this home. Some of our neighbors have become like family to us!
We have had lots of unique wildlife on our property too! Elk, antelope, deer, fox and other unique critters.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with the open floor plan and the very spacious bedrooms! One of the unique features is all the Aspen ceilings throughout the house that really give it that mountain feel. The most spectacular thing is the views that we have from inside our home of the many fourteen thousand foot mountains and then looking down the valley to the south. The patio area to also a favorite spot to soak in the wonderful Colorado sunshine and take in the amazing views!
