Matthew F. Jul 11, 2025 02:56:45 AM
Summary: Overall very happy with the stay and experience. My only complaint is it is posted fly fishing only on the property, which was not very clear in the online description. We like to fish with spinner rods and lures on occasion, which once we got there we learned was not allowed. You can still walk up the canyon and fish public areas so it wasn’t a huge deal.

Summary: Everything about this home and the entire experience renting it was well beyond exceptional. A newly renovated home with top-of the-line furnishing in a beautiful historic river setting made our family Thanksgiving gathering one to remember. Thanks to Pinon Vacation Rentals for accommodating our every request. The freshly snow-capped mountain views from the house were the perfect bonus.

Summary: Great place to stay on the river. We enjoyed our time there.

Summary: The best time being in Howard at this great property. And only steps away from the Arkansas River.
Scott M. Jan 2, 2024 12:00:52 AM
Summary: We just stayed four nights at the Blue Bottle Trout Camp and Cottage and we had a wonderful time. The home was immaculate, comfortable and well-stocked. The proximity to the river made it easy to try our hand at fly fishing just a few steps away. It's closer to town than the listing shows - only about a 15-minute drive into Salida. This made it convenient while still being out in the country and away from traffic. The skies were clear and the stargazing was an added plus. Would definitely return. Pinon Management was super-helpful and responsive to our needs and questions too. Highly recommend them as well.

Summary: The home felt very luxurious but still rustic. It had amenities that I would expect at a hotel or resort. My spouse, our 3 kids, my parents and I stayed in the main house. My aunt and uncle stayed in the cabin. Overall perfect for our family. My aunt and uncle could easily join us for meal but still escape the noise from the kids.
Larry S. Jan 18, 2023 04:02:04 AM
Summary: The overall experience from finding the property online through check-out was extremely pleasant with no issues. The property was immaculate and the location was pristine. It was a short drive to Monarch Mountain also. All of us had a wonderful stay.
