About this property

10 Minutes To Monarch Mountain, the Arkansas River and 10 Minutes To Salida!

This is a beautiful 2100 square foot Colorado home with new paint inside and out and new furniture. The kitchen was remodeled and added top of the line Kenmore appliances, granite and tile. Starlink internet was just installed with 200 MB's. Just 10 minutes from the Monarch Mountain ski area, historic Salida and the Arkansas river nestled in the shadows of Mt Shavano.

This property is centrally located just minutes away from hundreds of hiking, biking, ATV and Jeep trails and to the Arkansas river with over 9 rafting companies that specialize in navigating the river up to and including class 5 rapids. The Arkansas is also known for fishing and kayaking and hosts many competitive sporting events a year.

Walking distance from the front door is the Mountain Spirit Winery, a lovely must visit located on the south fork of the Arkansas River.

Please keep in mind that in the winter, front wheel/four-wheel drive vehicles or vehicle chains may be required to maneuver not only the short gravel road leading to the house, but will certainly be required when traversing the pass to get to Monarch Mountain.

Outdoor security cameras are on the property and include a doorbell camera and eve cameras facing north and East. These cameras are for the security of the property and at no time do we keep or store footage of any kind.

Location, location, location! This was a beautiful place. It was large enough for our whole family to enjoy the time together. The property manager was great. We had everything we needed. The house was fully equipped and 100% accurate to the listing.

Perfect for Monarch Ski Trip
Cozy home with gorgeous views. Convenient drive to Monarch Mountain as well aa into the downtown part of Salida. All the cooking accessories we needed-and more-were provided, along with various condiments, spices, cooking oils. The only thing we were surprised by was how close a couple of the neighboring homes were. From the pictures, the home looks very remote; however, you are close to a main road with a few homes very close by. These factors did not obscure the view or give us any issues, but it’s worth mentioning. We loved our stay and are considering making it a yearly family trip!
