Discover the best of both worlds — a peaceful “country” retreat right on the edge of town. Welcome to our Creekside Lodge in Buena Vista, where you’ll unwind along the banks of Cottonwood Creek while staying just a short stroll from downtown, the Arkansas River, and BV’s local shops, restaurants, and trails.
Nestled on more than 2 acres with private creek frontage, this spacious 3,000 sq. ft. lodge offers room for groups of all sizes. With 5 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and multiple living areas, the home comfortably sleeps up to 12 guests. Large open indoor and outdoor spaces make this an ideal setting for retreats, reunions, workshops, yoga gatherings, and family celebrations.
Step outside and enjoy your own waterfront paradise. Relax by the creek, dip your feet in the shallow “cool pools,” or lounge in a hammock while listening to the water and watching deer wander by. The property borders an 8-acre wooded open space, offering added privacy and nature views.
A fully stocked kitchen and dining area sit between two decks with plenty of seating, perfect for group meals, morning coffee, or sunset cocktails.
Please note: This home is full of charm, styled in an eclectic Southwestern aesthetic with plenty of character. As an older property, it offers a unique and authentic feel rather than a modern, uniform design. Guests seeking privacy and direct river access will find this home to be an excellent choice and a truly special place to unwind. When we describe it as older or well traveled, we simply mean the property shows normal wear from years of use and many furnishings and finishes have seen better days.
We work hard to keep this home affordable and accessible so more guests can enjoy our beautiful area. As a well-loved and frequently visited home, none of the furnishings or amenities are brand new, but everything is maintained to provide a comfortable and practical stay. If you’re looking for a clean, budget-friendly place to relax and explore the region, this home is a great fit.
Outdoor adventure surrounds you: • Arkansas River 1/4 mile away for fishing, kayaking & rafting • Downtown Buena Vista’s galleries, brew pubs & shops within walking distance • Cottonwood Pass, Chalk Creek Canyon & the Collegiate Peaks minutes away • Hot springs just 7 miles up the road • Endless hiking, biking & scenic drives in every direction
Whether you’re planning a quiet escape, an outdoor adventure, or a special event, Buena Vista Creekside Lodge offers the perfect blend of nature, comfort, and convenience — truly the best of BV.
The back porch has a low awning overhang, so please be mindful of your surroundings when standing or walking on the porch.

The location of this place is perfect - walkable to downtown, beautiful creek and space to explore. The house had plenty of room for our kids to play and they loved the hot tub.
