Mountain Luxury: New Modern Home with Stunning Views and Private Rooftop Deck
GENERAL INFO
This home is a quick walk or bike ride to downtown Salida and can serve as the hub of your activities. Located only 5 blocks (1/2 mile) from Historic Salida and less than 1 block from the Arkansas River. Our new build (2017) home is light, bright, and features awesome mountain views. There is a good balance of common space and bedrooms (4) so everyone can gather together, but also have some privacy. Perfect for several couples, groups and families, with bed space for up to 9 people.
The kitchen has tons of counter space and plenty of coffee cups and wine glasses. Step outside and soak up some sun on the rooftop deck; store your toys in the garage. You're invited to make yourself at home here!
Enjoy close access to MTB, running and hiking trails, river sports plus downtown shopping and dinning is only two minutes drive away. Cook out on the private second story deck and soak in mountain views from the huge upstairs windows.
PERKS
Includes garage, driving and on street parking spots. Plenty of storage space for bikes, skis, kayaks and fishing equipment. Free wifi, TV's in double rooms plus secure coded entry.
You'll find many of the comforts of home -- plenty of pillows, fuzzy blankets, and a kitchen stocked with tea, coffee, and cooking essentials (and more)!
We do have high-speed internet (wifi) throughout the house. Two TVs (one in the main living space, one in the master) both have Apple TVs capable of streaming Netflix, Amazon Video, Sling, etc. The main TV has Hulu Live loaded so you can always find something to watch and HBO is included!
Bathrooms are stocked with plenty of towels (beach towels, too, for river or hot springs adventures). There is also lotion, shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel.
In the side table upstairs, you'll find plenty of books for reading and board games for playing. On top of the side table a Scull Candy wireless speaker so that you can enjoy the music you love.
ADDITIONAL INFO
Please note that the main living space is on the top level; guests will need to climb a flight of stairs to access the kitchen, living room, master suite, and deck. The views from the second floor are amazing!
Like many mountain homes, our house does not have air conditioning. On hot summer afternoons the second floor can get warm; however, by running the ceiling fans and opening the windows in the evening, the house will be cool by bedtime.
Our home is family friendly with baby gate, bed guard on bunk, pack and play, kids toys, stuffed toys, children's books, and toddler plates and utensils. All we ask in return if you bring your family is that you respect our home as if it were your own. We want our house to be as welcoming and inviting to our guests as it is to our family.
Ground level: three bedrooms, one bathroom, laundry room, double garage.
Second level: master bedroom/bathroom, powder room, kitchen, living room, deck.

Wonderful place, excellent location, everything you could need. Clean, well put together, lots of space, etc. Would highly recommend. Perfect home base to explore the Salida region and enjoy some skiing.
A wonderful place to stay while visiting Salida for the weekend! There was plenty of space for our family to spend time together and the views from the deck are amazing. The kitchen was well stocked...we had everything we needed to make our meals. It was an easy walk to downtown!
This was a great house for our long weekend in Salida. The house was very clean and had everything we needed to make meals for our group. We especially loved the big table — wonderful meals eaten and games played around that table! The hosts communicated well during our stay, too!
The property is excellent for all things Salida! Very close to grocery store, trails, Riverside Park, Arkansas River access, and multiple water activities on the River, and local shopping!Very spacious property with all the necessary amenities and an awesome large outdoor deck Patio (2nd Level) with plenty of outdoor seating. You will love your stay!
A beautiful and clean property! Decent location in Salida, but very spacious and modern. Bed mattresses are hard and not the most comfortable, but the hosts were so responsive and helpful. An awesome stay.
The property was perfect for us to enjoy a weekend in Salida and to ski at Monarch. The home was comfortable and had all necessary amenities to enjoy our stay.
This modern house was fun to stay in and use as a base for our hiking vacation. Its central location helped us enjoy several great hikes near Salida and made it very convenient to hike near Buena Vista. We especially enjoyed the rooftop deck!
Love our home away from home. Salida should really make sure VRBO properties flourish in a way that continues to promote the tourism industry in this amazing mountain town.
Everything about our rental was excellent. We especially appreciated the timely repsonses we received from Heather and Even when we had questions prior to our arrival. We were seven family members in town for a wedding and this house was great with the amount of bedrooms and bathrooms available for 7 grown adults.
Lovely, spacious home. There were 6 Adults in our group and we had plenty of space for working on line as well as dinner, outside deck, and of course bathrooms. Garage access was an added bonus. We were able to walk to town, Catholic Church and coffee shop/bakery. Fantastic mountains are nearby for other adventures.
Very nice and clean place. Well appointed and very comfortable for four adults and three kiddos. We had a great time and while it is not exactly downtown Salida, it is definitely walkable.
Delightful stay in Salida - this home is easily accessible to everything you'll need/want to do in town. The hosts were lovely to deal with and we loved spending our evenings on the rooftop patio stargazing. Thanks for a comfy and safe space to spend our family vacation.

We love Colorado and feel Salida offers the best of everything that is simply Colorado. Both of us are runners, bikers, and skiers and know you will enjoy our home as much as we do!
What makes this property unique
Close to the water, and trails. It is only a 1/2 mile walk to downtown and the access can't be beat. Expansive views from the main living area and a perfect and quiet location for nice evenings on the deck with friends and family. Everything is new in this house including quartz counters, class shower, and comfy beds. Hip and fun furnishings show how much the owners love this place.
