This house is amazing. There’s room for 6 guests to sleep, it’s very clean and comfortable, it has phenomenal views of the mountains, it’s private yet only a few minutes from town. We’ll definitely plan on staying there again and I would highly recommend it. Thanks!

My husband and I picked this property mainly for the views shown on the site, and we were not disappointed. We sat out on the porch most days and enjoyed coffee or a glass of wine and soaked in the beauty. There is no bad view from any vantage point. In addition, the hosts were excellent communicators and left us great recommendations. From here, we easily enjoyed Buena Vista, Salida, and Mt. Princeton Hot Springs. A real gem. Highly recommend.

A great time in a great location

We are a group of 5 pastors from the Midwest who visited Buena Vista for a hiking retreat. All of us enjoyed our time at the cabin. It is close enough to town to make things convenient, but far enough outside of town to be quiet. The views are magnificent and the cabin amenities are great. We hope we can stay there again.

Centrally located family get-away

This beautiful cabin was perfect for our party of 6, lots of space & privacy for everyone. Beds were comfy, we had everything we needed in the kitchen, games & movies in the living room and bikes, corn hole to enjoy in the garage, plus an outdoor fire pit. The property & grounds are awesome, garden, flowers, etc. saw many colorful birds from the wrap-around porch and the views… WOW! Gorgeous! By far the neatest was the studio building out back! Quick 5 minute drive to Buena Vista for groceries, food, etc. The hosts Peter & Anne were easy to contact & made sure we had everything we needed, check in & check out was a breeze. Thanks for a wonderful Colorado get-away!

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
Anna and I live in Lakewood but spend as much time as possible at our dream cabin in Buena Vista. We are both sustainability professionals who love the outdoors, travel, adventures and time in nature with our 4-legged critters!

Why they chose this property

What can we say - this is high desert mountain living at its finest! Nestled right in the heart of the Arkansas River Valley, you'll have amazing views of several snow-capped "14ers" to the west and the mountains above the Arkansas River and town to the East, offering great sunrise and sunset indulgence. Neighbors include deer and horses, yet we're a lovely (bike-able) 3 miles to town. And what a cool town Buena Vista is -- a great vibe and very happening for its small-town size. When the day is up, why not head up to the nearby, super chill Cottonwood Hot Springs or Mount Princeton Hot Springs.
