Live the high life in Buena Vista
More than a mile and a half above sea level, Buena Vista is located in the Arkansas River Valley, surrounded by some of the highest peaks in the Rocky Mountains. Less than 2 hours from Colorado Springs, Buena Vista is known for its spectacular mountain scenery, rich mining and agricultural history, and, of course, a wealth of winter sports. With easy access to local landmarks like Columbine Park and the Buena Vista Heritage Museum, a Buena Vista vacation rental will put you in the center of a thriving mountain community.
Buena Vista _ above and beyond
Between 2 distinct ranges in the Rocky Mountains, Buena Vista is a nature lover's paradise. Alpine hiking, camping, and mountain biking are popular in the rugged mountain peaks, and the Arkansas River offers plenty of opportunities for kayaking, canoeing, and fishing. In the summer, you'll find numerous outfitters offering gear rentals and guided excursions, including whitewater rafting and nature hikes. In the winter months, skiing and snowboarding are the name of the game, and you'll find a bounty of steep mountain slopes seemingly tailor-made for downhill domination.

After a long day exploring the Rockies, you can get your culture on at the seasonal Buena Vista Heritage Museum, housed in the Old Chaffee County Courthouse. Here, you'll get a glimpse of the town's 150-year past with local history installations, artifacts, and interactive exhibits. To really get a feel for the town's booming agricultural industry, head to Jumpin' Good Goat Dairy, a working goat farm offering regular tours, as well as a country store stocked with local products and the farm's own goat cheeses.
