What an adorable tiny home! We loved how quiet it was and all of the cute touches it had! Comfy bed, nice full size fridge, glasses, mugs and plates and a nice hot shower! We loved the fire pit and the heater in the bathroom on those chilly mornings! We will definitely stay here again!

Great stay for the night! Very clean and had everything we needed. Belford is a tiny home so climbing the ladder to bed can be difficult. Property was well thought out and peaceful. Late check in was easy.

We stayed for 2 nights in one of the tiny homes. We had our own fire pit and chairs, it was nice to have a full kitchen and our own space. The property had lots of people staying and was still very quiet and felt secluded. We will recommend to friends and we will be back!!

I stayed at the Oxford for two nights and was sad to leave! The tiny house was well stocked and absolutely delightful, convenient and comfortable! I was solo traveling so I think with a second person it would be a bit more tight if you had a lot of luggage. I hope to be back again soon!

Beautiful surroundings adequate accommodation
Relatively comfortable and practical stay for 1 night during a festival weekend. The Belford tiny home was a bit warn down and low quality finishes. Price was high but expected for a sold out festival weekend. Staff was friendly and helpful, bed was comfortable.

I come to Buena Vista every year to hike. This was the perfect place to rest after a day hiking. Clean, a short drive to everything, and quiet. I loved being able to cook my own meals.
