Fully equipped kitchen, great amenities, pet friendly, great location - walking distance to restaurants and activities, great for families and several adults.
Kristi was a wonderful host and very accommodating. The house met all our needs, loved being walking distance to coffee shops and restaurants. Will stay there again.
Great spot for extended family. We rented this house plus house next door. Enjoyed the roomy layout, excellent location - convenient for downtown Salida, nearby mountains for hiking and biking, outdoor patio chairs. House had everything we needed for a comfortable relaxing stay. Excellent and responsive host communication.
It was clean and spacious. Lots of room for the whole family. And the location was great. Walking distance to downtown and a short 25 min drive to Monarch mountain.
We loved our weekend at Kristi’s in Salida! It was a great house for a family stay for everyone to have their own space and it was easy to walk to downtown restaurants and hiking trails.

Thank you! That's great to hear. We'd love to have you back anytime!
Very comfortable and spacious place that is close to downtown. It is well furnished, meeting our needs. Kristi was super responsive to any questions we had about our stay. I would stay again !
Great place to stay in Salida. Close to Riverside park and downtown. This home was perfect for 7 adults and 1 dog.Kitchen was well equipped, the beds were all super comfortable.
The home was in good condition and very roomy for our family. We loved being so close to town to walk everywhere. Kristi was a great host and responded immediately to any questions or concerns. Highly recommend staying here
We had a great visit in Salida, it felt like a home away from home. This house is very spacious and lovely. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen is large and easy to use. We were able to cook some meals and also go out to eat. It was very nice that the owner allows dogs, so we were able to bring our dog who enjoyed the nice sidewalks for walking and the fenced in back yard. Lots of nice shops and restaurants to walk to. Only about 30 minutes to drive Monarch mountain for skiing.
Lovely home on perfect location. Home was sparkling clean, comfortable beds and well furnished We especially liked being within walking distance to downtown and the river park.
Great home-base to explore Salida, as well as to hang out and chill at home. Great to have so many beds/baths for separate families and kids to be able to be there without getting in each others' way.
We had a great time in Salida, much because of the comfortable and convenient rental. There was plenty of room to hang out, spread out, and enjoy the company of old friends. We’d highly recommend this property and stay again when we’re back for a visit.
The house is conveniently located downtown and walkable who services. The house is spacious with an open floor plan and can accommodate a large group. The host is friendly and responsive to any questions that arise.
The place was in a great location and close to walking to town. A perfect size for our large family. The only issue is that with the high temperatures during the week we were there, at times the house was a little warm but a great week.

About the host
Hosted by Kristi
I'm Kristi. My family and I moved to Salida from he East Coast and we're not looking back! There are so many things to do here in all seasons. Reach out to ask about places to visit and things to do during your stay. Let me know if you think the house is lacking anything and I'll be happy to consider adding it.
