Eclectic but uncomfortable…

It was like traveling back in time. If you like art deco everything and museum pieces you’ll love this place but the funkiness wore off quickly for us. Overall the furniture was uncomfortable, the room layouts were awkward and the entire house was stuffy. Definitely not recommended in the summer in that there is no AC and the windows don’t open. They had fans but unless you left the exterior doors wide open at night all the fans did was circulate the warm, stale air in the house. On top of everything the street in front of the house was under construction so the lack of parking access, dust and noise was a nuisance. No warning on that until we arrived. We have stayed in Salida VRBOs two weeks per year for the last 10 years… this one is over priced and uncomfortable. Not recommended.

Thumbs up for returnees

We have stayed here on two occasions-once in the winter and once in the summer. The grandsons LOVE it. There is room for everyone, the property is always spotless, it is convenient to everything, and multiple TVs make it a hit for all. Communication with the property managers is always a positive experience. THANKS-we'll be back, I'm sure!

Historic Residence in quiet neighborhood

Classic Art Deco home in a safe, quiet neighborhood in Salida. We enjoyed the home and all its quirks. Fun art work and amazing wood interior. The pictures are accurate. Loved the round archway! As with all properties there are things which could be better - grill worked well but the tools were moldy, deer ran rampant in the area and there was dung all over the yard and walkways. Overall it was a good experience- comfy beds & cozy home over a long weekend.

PERFECT!

WHAT A GREAT PLACE!!!! We go to Salida often, and this was the first time for us in this home. My two grandsons and I loved this place. The furnishings were beautiful & the upgrades to make everything modern kept the historical style. PLENTY of room for everyone! Multiple TV's made it especially nice-the guys could use their video game consoles, and I got to watch sports! Check-in was a breeze-hosts and owners were especially accommodating to us. Great location-easy access to downtown. The many deer in the yard were an added bonus. We will stay there again if possible.

Misrepresented online!!! Filthy. Worn out.

Smoke detector went off first night and called property management; never responded. Carpet and floors were so filthy we had to wear shoes at all times. Stove and oven were filthy and smoked. Bathroom with shower was brown with dirt and hair. Never again.
