We really enjoyed our stay at this property, the house is very comfortable and clean and easy to relax. The scenery from the front deck is absolutely amazing. We are hoping to be able to book a vacation here regularly.
Loved our recent stay and would love to stay again! Best views from any cabin we’ve stayed in. Unless you’re in downstairs bedroom or one of the bathrooms you have a view of Mt Princeton and the chalk cliffs from nearly every angle in the house. Great location between Buena Vista and Salida. Well appointed and clean cabin with all the stuff you need—including great WiFi. Excellent star gazing with dark skies. Quiet neighborhood. Only thing we’d suggest adding is a tea kettle. Thanks for having us!
My stay was everything I expected and more. The host provided thorough information and checked in with me periodically to ensure all our needs were being metThe view was amazing! Pictures dont do it justice. The rental was spacious and clean and well stocked. Definitely recommend.
Gorgeous in every way! The views were unbeatable. We loved the house and the deck was beautiful. It wasn’t too far from town. (But far enough to still feel remote) We very much enjoyed visiting both Buena Vista and Salida. Would definitely recommend this property and owners to anyone looking for a beautiful escape, peacefully tucked away. Away from the crowds, but not away from civilization.

Good communication and the property was exactly what we needed to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The view is absolutely amazing! Our young girls (9 and 11) are already asking when we can come back. Directions were easy to follow.
