Incorporated in 1880, the charming historic town of Salida was named as one of the 'ten best places to live' by television’s Fine Living program. Salida is known for its mild climate, plentiful outdoor recreational opportunities, and burgeoning arts scene, including the well-respected Salida Museum. It’s set beneath the Sangre de Cristo Mountain Range to the south and the Sawatch Range to the northwest with its 15 peaks over 14,000 feet in elevation (which is why the region’s nickname is the “14ers Region.” The section of Arkansas River that runs near the town is world-famous for whitewater rafting and kayaking.

One of our guest said it best..
'It is much prettier than the pictures lead you to believe. Hot tub is right outside the back door and fenced on one side for privacy. Property manager was super and responded quickly to all questions. We saw llama, deer and wild turkeys wandering around the neighborhood while we stayed. Easy access to both the Monarch ski resort and the town of Salida.

Fantastic as always

A great little cabin. We stay here every year on our annual ski and snowboard trip to Monarch. It is very convient as it is right between Salida and Monarch and our daughter loves the hot tub. It is clean and warm and comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked with everything you need and the bed is super comfortable.

The cabin location is great, midway between Salida and Monarch Mountain. The cabin is equipped with everything you need and more. In my experience no other VRBO property can compare in that regard. It was our second stay at this property and we will be back again God willing.

Great stay!

We loved this cabin! The location is excellent, close to both Salida and Buena Vista. We enjoyed town visits with our dog (dog parks and dog friendly eateries in both places) but just hanging out at the cabin, on the porch or by the creek, was also wonderful. We would definitely like to return to this lovely spot.
