About this property

Casita Chipeta! Your Basecamp for all of your Salida Adventures!

Salida STR 013020 STX-ID-03505718-0001
Tucked just across the historic railroad tracks and steps from the river, Casita Chipeta by Pinon Vacation Rentals offers a front-row seat to the very best of Salida. From the property, enjoy expansive views of the Collegiate Peaks, including Mount Shavano and Mount Antero, with multiple surrounding 13,000-foot and greater summits lighting up the skyline at sunrise and sunset, including the Casitas namesake peak. The setting is peaceful and scenic, yet the energy of downtown is remarkably close—an easy three-minute walk across the tracks puts you right in the heart of Salida's shops, galleries, coffeehouses, and restaurants. A standout feature of Casita Chipeta is its ample street-side parking, with plenty of room for trailers, boats, and RVs directly in front of the property—an uncommon and highly valued perk this close to downtown. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the proximity to the Arkansas River for gold-medal fly fishing, rafting, and riverside paths, as well as direct access to over 22 miles of single-track mountain biking/hiking in the Salida Mountain Trail System—reachable right from the porch. With quick access to hiking, biking, Monarch Mountain skiing, and nearby hot springs, Casita Chipeta is an ideal base whether you're arriving with adventure gear in tow or simply looking to relax with big mountain views and effortless walkability to town.

Fantastic home within walking distance of downtown Salida. Check in was easy and the property was very clean. Great communication with the rental owners. The house had everything I needed. And the king size bed was amazingly comfortable. Charming and cozy. I would definitely stay here again.
