Wonderful Home in Colorado

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cabin. The house had the perfect amount of room for a family of five. My daughters had the downstairs bedrooms and my husband and I took the upstairs. We weren't able to get the wood-burning stove working but then again we were not familiar with that kind of stove. All in all, we had a great time.

Last Minute Booking

We had to make a last minute change to our travel plans and luckily found this home was available. Home is beautiful. Location easy to access, quiet, and lovely. Beds were comfy. This is the best stocked rental I've stayed in and I would definitely stay here again. My only complaint, which is not unique to this rental, is a lack of grab bars in tub shower for the safety of elderly travelers...please consider adding. Trips to BV, St. Elmo, Independence Pass, and Salida were great fun!

About the host

Hosted by Ryan and Megan Lawless

We moved to Colorado in 2012 and have been visiting the Salida/Buena Vista area for years. We fell in love with the small town feel of the Nathrop area, as well as the unbeatable access to river rafting, hiking, mountain biking and other adventures. We believe there's no better escape in Colorado than here...the bright and sunny days, the mammoth mountain ranges, the endless adventure, and the awesome nearby towns. We love it here and hope you will too.

Why they chose this property

The property in Nathrop is located on the top of a breathtaking open mesa overlooking three of the most spectacular peaks in the Sawatch Range. The home is private and secluded, with floor to ceiling windows capturing every angle of the property's amazing views. We loved the central location to all Chaffee County has to offer: Salida, Buena Vista, Mount Princeton Hot Springs, ghost towns, trail access galore, and of course the Arkansas River. Anything we want to do is usually a 15 minute drive away.

What makes this property unique

Privacy, comfort, and views. Our back lot is treed, secluded, and private. The home is furnished with comfort and entertaining in mind. The views of the mountains are 365 degrees and some of the best in Mesa Antero.
