I travel a lot and I’ve stayed in several vacation rentals, and this one is my favorite so far. The views were great, the home was well stocked, and my family of 5 had plenty of room. Everything was clean and the hot tub was great! 5 stars!

We had an amazing time staying and would love to stay again. We missed out on using the pool table with the football games on and no tv in the basement but besides that had a wonderful time.

The property was great for me and my family. The property suited us perfectly. We enjoyed all the amenities, hot tub, pool table and foosball. We loved this location for the nearby river and nearby hiking. We would love to come again.

Thanksgiving 2024

We had a great stay over Thanksgiving with my son and daughter and their spouses. This was our second stay and it was just as good the second time. Great facilities and location. We really enjoyed the hot tub, games room, nearby hot springs and snow shoeing. Very well equipped for preparing a great Thanksgiving dinner.

Perfect for a ski getaway

Our family of 4 stayed here for a ski trip to Monarch. The house was perfect, everyone had their own space when needed but plenty of activities and games for family time. Could easily have fit a larger family. Fully equipped kitchen for cooking meals and the hot tub was a nice perk after a day on the slopes. Great location between Salida and Buena Vista for anything you need. Property was clean and matched the listing.
