Perfect set up for our family get away with our dog. The hot tub is wonderful especially in the morning. The kitchen is full stocked to cook anything. Very clean and lots of extras.
Great property for the family, not so much for older guests, as there’s no bathroom on the top level, where the kitchen/dining/living room space is. We’ll definitely rent again for the younger family members, as we did this year.
Great little getaway spot for some r and r. Close enouto Salida and Poncha springs to have plenty to do but far enough away to get some peace and quiet. Hot tub was fantastic, house was clean and well stocked.

Hi Josh! We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay at The Lookout. We hope to welcome you back again soon!
The area is gorgeous. We had ease to the mountain and to town. We found fantastic restaurants in town and awesome experiences up the mountain.
I recommend this cabin for any one's future stay.
We really enjoyed this house. It was in a lovely location that wasn't as populated but was still close enough to shopping and things to do. We loved the hot tub. Our only complaint was that the knives could use some sharpening as they were dull and hard to use.

We are so glad you enjoyed the house and hot tub! Thank you for the feedback about the knives - sharper ones have been stocked:) Pinon Vacation Rentals would be happy to welcome you back in the future!
My buddies and I came up for a ski weekend, this property could not have been a better location - right in between Salida and Monarch. The house itself was spacious, and well equipped for dogs, and the hot tub was very nice. Would definitely book this place again.
Had a great stay, everything you need and great location for hitting the mountains/rafting/hiking etc. and only 10min to store in poncho springs. Hot Tub was great after long day in the mountains. There are bunk beds in one of the rooms which the kiddos loved, didn’t see that on the listing so was a nice surprise. Will definitely look here first when we head back!

We are thrilled you enjoyed all that The Lookout has to offer. Thank you for staying with Pinon Vacation Rentals!
The property was very comfortable and clean. The location to Monarch Ski mountain was just right. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking and lots of room to gather for dinner. We enjoyed the conveniently located, clean hot tub. If we are ever in this location again, I will definitely be staying at this property.
