The house was absolutely adorable — it truly felt like stepping back in time to a simpler, cozier era. Every detail had so much charm, and we instantly felt at home the moment we arrived. The yard was perfect for our dogs to run around and relax, which made the stay even more special for us. The location couldn’t have been better — super convenient to restaurants, shops, and anything you might need, while still feeling peaceful and tucked away. Our host was incredibly welcoming and made everything easy from start to finish. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a warm, charming getaway!

Great location and accommodation!

We loved how close and walkable the house was to everything in Buena Vista! The house is well stocked, clean, and in such a nice setting. We really enjoyed just sitting in the backyard enjoying the weather and observing all the mule deer roam around. Would love to stay again!

Wonderful Old Fashioned Cottage

Staying in this quaint little cottage was going back in time and visiting my grandmother house, but with all the modern updates! The cottage was quiet, clean and very homey. We especially enjoyed the heated mattress warmers! We highly recommend this property!

About the host

Hosted by Michelle Dieleman

Host profile image
We are from Grand Rapids, Michigan and were born and raised there. We have four adult children and two granddaughters. We came to Buena Vista because our friends own a vacation home here, and we fell in love with the town, the mountains, and the people. We also immediately fell in love with this house when we first saw it and realized it was for sale.
We plan on using this home for a retirement getaway and consider it our home away from home already.

Why they chose this property

This home is so full of charm, history, and character, and is located in such a beautiful setting and quaint little town that we couldn't resist the opportunity to live here. It's just an amazing place!!!

What makes this property unique

Being close to the Cottonwood Hot Springs, close to the town, close to the mountains and the Arkansas River. You'll also enjoy seeing all the wildlife.
