We had the best weekend at this beautiful mountain getaway. The views could not be matched. They were breathtaking right out the large living room windows and deck area. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. The hot tub and swings were a huge hit with my kids. Quiet and secluded area. We will certainly be back as we would love to spend more time there.

Stunning unobstructed views on 32 acres of Pinon pines. We stargazed in the hot tub, had coffee on the vista patio, and slept comfortably in the downstairs bedrooms. A beautiful and unique spot for a quiet adventure base!

Fantastic views, private location

A great place to chill with friends, right outside town, but feels super private, with undeveloped land all around. Fantastic views to the west. Amazing outdoor decks and patios. Great place to relax.

One-of-a-kind spot

We loved our stay here and greatly appreciated being able to bring our pups. And the views are incredible! The host was super communicative and helpful throughout our booking process. A quick drive to Salida, and the gravel road to the property was no problem for our 4runner. The views are incredible! So much space in the kitchen, dining areas, and outdoor decks to hang out and the hot tub is huge. Highly recommend!

Stunning Views!!

I booked this place for my family and I to spend Christmas together and man, we were not disappointed! Beautiful views every where you looked and so incredibly cozy! The wrap around deck is lovely even in the winter and watching the wildlife all around was definitely a bonus. Only suggestion is to make sure you have decent tires if there is snow. The driveway up to the house looks like it would be a little tricky if it is icey :)

Winter vaca

Fantastic property that overlooks the valley toward Mt Shavano. We especially enjoyed the views from the hot tub. Unfortunately, the hot tub was down for one day because of needed maintenance. However, the host was great about communicating the issue, resolving it quickly, and giving us a small discount for the inconvenience. She could not have handled it any better, so five stars!

For a full week in Aug this is an amazing property. Excellent home base you can really just relax at. For the less mobile visitors, this is a great place to hang back and let time take its course. Bird life is abundant. View never gets dull. Back deck has some shade. Hot tub is a nice one. Only complaints are lack of shaded deck area and the need formore deck furniture. It is a huge deck and deserves to have a shaded sitting area. Beds were comfy and kitchen is well enough appointed.Some reviews say the space looks bigger than it is, but I would say the pics are perfectly honest. We never felt crowded and the space feels airy. The location is secluded and you can’t see or hear anything but nature, apart from owner’s house which neighbors this house.

Disappointing…..

The location is great, view is excellent. The pictures of the property are very deceiving, it’s much smaller than depicted. The kitchen is lacking in basic equipment and the bathroom mats need to be cleaned. Actually the place could use a good cleaning! Communication with Piñon Ranch was less than pleasant. On Thursday we received a text asking if we would like to stay one more day, the property was available. We could stay at a 15% discount if booked directly thru them. The text stated we needed to call by 8am Friday. We called to confirm we would stay Thursday evening and spoke to Ian who said he would send the message we were staying and we should call in the morning when the office opened. Promptly at 8:00 am I called and left a message we were staying, and again at 8:30 did the same! We went off for the day and at 11:30am we got a call that we needed to vacate and we were told there is no Ian there. They proceeded to be rude and not at all concerned that we were out already and said we needed to get out because they rented the house. Very underhanded, lacking professionalism and rude!

Maureen, I would like to apologize for the miscommunication that occurred during your stay. When you called on Thursday evening (at 9:30 pm), you did speak to the answering service (Ian). Please note that they are not authorized to make or confirm any reservations or extensions. Ian was correct in informing you that he would send a message to the reservation team regarding your extension. However, he did not say that "you were good to go," as you reported to the office staff. Unfortunately, a last-minute booking was received at 10:00 pm that night - and we had to honor that reservation. It is important to mention that your extension would not have been granted had we spoken with you at 8 am on Friday morning. You made an assumption that your extension was approved without receiving any confirmation or payment. I would like to inform you that this is the first report of cleanliness issues that we have received. If you had alerted us to any issues, we would have promptly sent a cleaning team to address them. We take pride in the great work and services that our housekeepers and office staff provide. We have years worth of reviews to reflect this as well. It appears that the issues were not serious enough to prevent you from requesting an additional night. I want to emphasize that the communication from our team was handled professionally, despite the incident involving your son. His threats towards the cleaning team and office staff were completely unacceptable. His verbal abuse and aggressive behavior were so severe that a complaint was filed with VRBO.

Absolutely wonderful stay—highly recommend! From the minute we arrived, this house felt just like home. The views from every single window are absolutely stunning, and we loved spending time taking them in. The kitchen is incredibly well-equipped with everything you could possibly need to cook meals. There are also plenty of cozy seating areas both inside and outside, making it the perfect place to relax. We absolutely loved our stay here and cannot wait to come back!
