Amazing view!

Splendid Isolation is the perfect descriptor for this property! The house has a great view of the chalk cliffs of Mt. Princeton, and downtown BV is only 20 minutes away! The house is well-maintained and very comfortable. Check-in and check-out could not be easier. The large windows provide a stunning view, but they also mean that it can get warm on sunny days. However, fans are available. The only two things we would change are to put one of the queen beds in the lower BR and make the vanity in the upper bathroom narrower to make it easier to get in the shower.

Incredibly Beautiful and Serene

The cabin is gorgeous and the view was a dream. The location is secluded yet many wonderful attractions are within easy reach, and it's close to Buena Vista and Salida for shopping and other conveniences. Everything was neat and clean and our stay was most enjoyable.

Gorgeous, Clean Cabin

The cabin was beautiful and the views were breathtaking. Very clean and spacious with everything we needed. There is no washer and dryer though but thankfully we brought enough clothes and there were plenty of towels that we didn’t need it. Perfect location in the mountains with easy access to Buena Vista and short drive to Salida. Would definitely stay here again!

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The view was awesome. We did side by side riding in the mountains so had trucks and rigs. The parking was just what we needed. No complaints for this stay!

Lovely Mountain Getaway

Beautiful secluded property in the mountains. It was the perfect location for getting out of the city but convenient if we needed to go into town to get something. The view couldn't be beat. Instructions were clear. There was no air conditioning which wasn't a problem most of the time. A ceiling fan in the bedroom would have been nice. Fantastic place to stay. Owner/property manager were super easy to work with too.

Exceeded Expectations

Our stay was fabulous. The cabin itself is clean, spacious, and the location is great. Only 20 minutes away from pretty much everything you need, while still being far enough away for privacy. The view here cannot be beat and the peace you’ll feel sitting on that porch is immaculate, and the stargazing opportunities are endless. 10/10 would recommend this place and I can’t wait to go back!

This place is awesome. Just what I was looking for in a getaway. Away and secluded but only 12 minutes from town. The view from the front windows is absolutely gorgeous. The whole process of renting was easy as well. From booking to communicating with the property manager. A very nice experience.
