10 Minutes To Monarch Mountain, the Arkansas River and 10 Minutes To Salida!
This is a beautiful 2100 square foot Colorado home with new paint inside and out and new furniture. The kitchen was remodeled and added top of the line Kenmore appliances, granite and tile. Starlink internet was just installed with 200 MB's. Just 10 minutes from the Monarch Mountain ski area, historic Salida and the Arkansas river nestled in the shadows of Mt Shavano.
This property is centrally located just minutes away from hundreds of hiking, biking, ATV and Jeep trails and to the Arkansas river with over 9 rafting companies that specialize in navigating the river up to and including class 5 rapids. The Arkansas is also known for fishing and kayaking and hosts many competitive sporting events a year.
Walking distance from the front door is the Mountain Spirit Winery, a lovely must visit located on the south fork of the Arkansas River.
Please keep in mind that in the winter, front wheel/four-wheel drive vehicles or vehicle chains may be required to maneuver not only the short gravel road leading to the house, but will certainly be required when traversing the pass to get to Monarch Mountain.

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay! It is a beautiful house, in a fantastic location, and the property manager was absolutely wonderful to work with. We would absolutely stay there again.
We came up for a family cousin trip, all adults, and this house was perfect!! It is spacious and had all the amenities we needed. We especially loved being able to sit around the big table all together! The view of the fall colors was so beautiful. The host is so kind and had great communication with us. We would definitely stay here again!
We had a very nice stay for our group of four adults. Beautiful home with lots of games and puzzles. Fun decor. Everything we needed to cook a few meals and enjoy some wine. The deck was nice and the weather perfect to enjoy a bit of time outside.
The Shavano Vista was a fabulous spot for our family vacation. It was the perfect location to do all the things we had planned and the property itself was maintained perfectly. We were happy with our stay every single day. Thank you to Shavano Vista for sharing your "little slice of Heaven" with us. We loved learning the history behind the Angel of Mt. Shavano and the priceless memories will last us a lifetime!
Great communication and flexibility with host before arrival. House and location are absolutely beautiful. Short drive to Salida and right across from the winery. Would absolutely stay here again!
Had a great time staying at the property. Beautiful location in fall. Kids loved the bunk beds. Close to Mount Princeton Hot Springs for a nice day trip. Property had everything we needed for a family dinner!
This was the perfect spot for our family to go skiing. We will stay again. We read all the past reviews and they were accurate. Nicely furnished, great deck and room for all of us. Love having the 3 bathrooms and the room with bunk beds, besides the rooms shown in the pictures. Beautiful view was a bonus!
The place was perfect for a fun and relaxing weekend to celebrate a bride and her big day. The host let us check in early so we could decorate and pull of a huge surprise for our girl. It was fantastic
Home easily accommodated two families and the two master suites was a bonus. Home was stocked with amenities to include gas grill that we utilized. Lisa, the property manager, was attentive to our every need. Thanks for a great stay!
Location, location, location! This was a beautiful place. It was large enough for our whole family to enjoy the time together. The property manager was great. We had everything we needed. The house was fully equipped and 100% accurate to the listing.
The owner/property manager of this home is extremely responsive and helpful! Lovely home with a great view!

This house was beyond expectations- absolutely beautifully decorated, clean, an abundance of necessities (towels, laundry soap, kitchen supplies), and in an AWESOME location. Lisa, the property manager, made sure all of our needs were met and was very easy to get a hold of and communicate with, if needed. Would 10/10 recommend! We hope to be able to visit this beautiful, mountain home again.
We loved our stay! The home was beautiful, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was stocked. I brought some of my own pans to make risotto and ended up not needing any of them. We were travelling with 2 infants. All of the rooms had plenty of space for travel bassinets. We would definitely come back.
I really cannot express how wonderful our stay at this property was. It was a perfect place for our extended family. The house was spotless and just amazing. Lisa was totally supportive and available although we didn't have any problems.
My only wish was that the house was smaller so my wife and I could come back alone.
Jut amazing.
