Intentionally designed and immaculately clean, this property is an incredible hidden gem. Being minutes from town allowed us to conveniently access dinner and entertainment yet we could also hike, picnic and play the provided yard games right on the property. My only concern in sharing a glowing review is that it might not be available the next time I visit Salida!

This was a perfect location for us to stay while skiing at Monarch ski resort. The property was quite, secluded, and easy to get to. It did not disappoint. It exceeded my expectations. I took my teenage son and four of his friends skiing. The boys really enjoyed our stay at the property. It had all the amenities of your own house. It was very easy to communicate with our hosts and the view of the mountains was spectacular. Definitely would stay there again.

Loved the house. Great little cabin with excellent bones, spaces, and furnishings. Care was given when they designed and built the cabin and it shows. It's not far from the highway, but it's tucked back in its own valley and felt secluded, safe, and authentic. The bed situation was a little unusual for our particular group, but we made it work. We will be back.
