Always a great and memorable time at Mountain Manor. We love it so much and feel so comfortable and at home there. We keep returning so that says something! Our host, Pam, is always warm and welcoming and genuinely cares that her renters have a good visit and a pleasant and hassle-free experience. We’re already thinking about next time.

We had a fantastic stay! Pam sent lots of great information and recommendations before we arrived. The house was better than we had hoped! There aren’t many pictures of the inside of the house, so I was a little worried, but it was perfect! Great beds and lots of space for my family to spread out and sleep comfortably!We brought our two dogs, which they happily accommodated, and the had lots of dog gates which were really a nice touch. Overall we had a great experience and would stay again!!

Wonderful

We stayed here while making our way across Colorado. The view was stunning and the house was perfect for our needs. While staying here, we visited Great Sand Dunes National Park, Monarch Mountain, St. Elmo, Salida and Buena Vista, but, honestly, it would have been a great place to just chill for a few days, too. Highly recommend whether you're looking for a centrally located place for visiting or want to just relax.

Spring in the Rockies

And no better place to spend it than Mountain Manor. We had a wonderful time. We continue to stay there because it suits us perfectly…the location, the views, the quiet neighborhood are all things on our must have list. And the house is just a comfortable, soothing place to land. That and the beautiful birds, visiting deer, 360 views, and a very caring helpful host keep bringing us back.

Perfect Mountain Cabin

Mountain Manor is the perfect spot between Salida and Monarch. Plenty of space for a family of 4 and really a few more could sleep comfortably. Beautiful views from the front and back porch and so many outdoor adventures close by. The hosts are awesome and we will most definitely stay again on our next trip.

Great Mountain Getaway

We had a great time for a few days of skiing and exploring. Pam was an excellent host with great communication well in advance of the stay and throughout. The house is in a great location close enough to town but also away enough to get some seclusion. Amazing views in every direction. It had everything needed including firewood for those cold nights.
