Beautiful Location
This is an adorable guest house on a ranch property. The house was comfortable and clean. While we didn't have an opportunity to take advantage of all the fun activies on the property because of our schedule, they all looked amazing. Also, very nice owners!

Perfect Peace
The guest house is perfectly located and well maintained. You are within a few minutes of downtown Salida and all the wonderful hiking, biking, and river activities one could want. The guest house has a great view of the mountains and sits on a lovely landscape of trees, trout streams, pastures, and well kept grounds.

Peaceful Weekend Getaway
The cabin is perfect for a quiet weekend away. Its easy to get in and out of Salida and has great access to the beautiful outdoor spaces of the Southern Sawatch range. It is very clean and everything was easy to find and operate.

mountain valley fun
Perfectly sited cabin for jumping off for fabulous spring hikes. The cabin is quiet, private and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Chip fixed the water heater immediately when the pilot light decided to extinguish itself and it was great to chat with him. Would stay again for sure!

Beautiful house, stunning views
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was comfortable and well stocked. Loved the decor, the antiques and the interesting book collection. The property is beautiful with plenty of room for the dog to run. Salida is a great location for multiple outdoor activities. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Excellent stay, would definitely stay here again!
The house was clean and cozy, the kids loved the loft and the hot tub. The location was great, close to skiing at Monarch while not too far to go back into Salida. Would highly recommend it for a family get away!
