Lacie K. Dec 20, 2024 08:30:48 AM
Summary: Good place to stay. Hot water heater had to be reset but worked fine after that.
Rufus S. Aug 18, 2024 09:49:51 AM
Summary: It was a very peaceful place to stay with wonderful veiws of the moutains and river. We saw a herd of deer several times, horses running, and a chipmunk. It was in a really good location to take day trips to other places. A few things to make it better would be to have drain plugs to fit sinks in kitchen to do dishes, something to sit suitcases on or a place to put clothes in room with twin beds. My in laws shower needed cleaned a little better. The house was a very nice place to stay. Owners responded quickly when we had to call about a toilet float valve not shutting off all of the time. We would definitely stay again. We hated to leave.
Zachary W. Aug 15, 2024 12:29:48 AM
Summary: Great place to hang and relax with the family. Great location for views of the valley and river access for rafting/fishing. Even got to beat my brother at horseshoes and lose at darts!
Gena G. Aug 1, 2024 02:17:16 AM
Summary: We had a family matter to attend to and stayed here during our time in CO. It was very beautiful. If you need to work, internet is not the best, but overall it was a very comfortable stay. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to get away and stay in a clean safe area.
Karen K. Jun 4, 2024 09:48:16 AM
Summary: nice place…perfect for our needs. Some people might feel like it is a little rundown. We thought it was great for our family and dogs
Jonathan D. Oct 9, 2023 12:00:35 PM
Summary: Great home and location for our fishing trip on the Arkansas River. Highly recommend!
Rich B. Jul 23, 2023 07:09:23 AM
Summary: Great location with views in every direction. Love the town of Salida.
Jordan M. Jun 15, 2023 01:00:08 PM
Summary: This property was perfect! I’m the listing they mention it’s not some high end luxurious property. But I gotta tell ya, those properties are not worth the high dollar signs and they don’t have the views that this property does! It was perfect for our crew on Memorial Day weekend. The views are out of this world. It’s private. A quick walk to the river that we took the dogs on each morning. We explored all the surrounding areas and hiked and biked during the day. Grabbed a drink in Salida and then came back and grilled out, are wonderful sunset dinners and then hung around the fire pit in the backyard. For us, it was a great β€œcrash pad.” A place for a group of friends to hit the mtns during the day and come back and be together at night. The rustic feel fit the outdoor environment we were in and for a group of us that are use to β€œhigher end” lodging, we all said we would book this comfortable, homey house again in a heart beat! I can see my why Kate and her spouse want to retire here! Wifi and phone reception were just fine. Plenty of towels and cookware. Pet friendly. Go for it! You won’t regret it! And you can’t beat the price!
Shannon-Marie K. May 15, 2023 10:02:57 AM
Summary: We absolutely love coming here. Having the mountains in your backyard is amazing and our boys LOVE to climb them. The dogs and I enjoy walking down to the beautiful stream. Neighbors were friendly.
Chad M. Sep 28, 2022 04:32:06 AM
Summary: A nice little place of the beaten path. Has lots of potential. The energy is very welcoming. The hills behind the house offer an ancient spirit of the earth and the view out of the front leaves one in awe of nature.
