Property was very clean, well appointed and very comfortable . Minutes from downtown via the Riverwalk, the dogs had a great time. Overall a fantastic place
Beautiful townhome within a five minute walk to downtown Salida. Overlooks the Arkansas River and our mini schnauzer loved to sit out on the upper deck and people watch as folks strolled along the river trail. We’ve stayed here before and will definitely do so again!

Annie, we are so happy to hear that your stay at River Livin’ was a great success. We look forward to hosting you again soon. :)
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Dog Friendly-River Livin' townhouse. This was such a great place to relax and had everything needed for us and our dogs. The kitchen is fully updated and equipped and the bedrooms were so comfy. Loved hearing the sounds of the river through the open windows. Salida is a friendly town and this home is close to everything! Thanks for a terrific stay.
We have been coming to Salida for over 20 years and try to stay at VRBO places close to Riverside Park.This location was fantastic and had other relatives in the same complex.Can't wait until next year ...

Thanks Michael. We are looking forward to hosting you again!
This place was great for our family of 5 and family dog. We skied and fished and hiked and ate well out or in. It’s a short walk to dog-friendly trails across the river, to dry fly fishing in town and to numerous good restaurants and shopping downtown. We hope to come stay again soon.
We so much enjoyed our stay here! Location is walkable to food and activities downtown. It was very quiet and everything in the home was so comfortable. We’ll definitely be back!
We enjoyed our stay. Looked like from the pictures the condo was at river level instead of above which overlooked a scary old mine instead. But clean and had all we needed!

Thank you for your feedback. Happy you enjoyed your stay. The old mine is certainly a matter of one's taste. Hope to host you again in the near future!
Nice Condo on the Arkansas River with easy walking distance (@.2mile) to downtown Salida for shopping and restaurants. Property clean and well prepared for our arrival with plenty of space to spread out. Great spot for dogs as well with easy access to the river.
This was a great spot for a weekend getaway with friends. Walking distance to downtown to get food and drinks. Easy drive to Monarch to ski. If you drive an EV, there are several chargers close by too. Check in/out process was easy.

Hi Chelsea! Thank you so much for staying with us. We hope you come back again for another great stay!
We had an awesome time staying here! It was close to downtown, had a beautify river view, and was a cozy stay. We brought our two pets and they had enough room for kennels. They had enough kitchen equipment to cook a Thanksgiving meal as well. We are getting married in Salida next summer and will recommend this stay!

This condo was very nice with everything you would expect. Comfortable beds, great bathrooms, great kitchen etc etc. the best thing about this place is the location. The arkansas river is right out the back door and it is a very short walk to downtown for great restaurants, shopping, playing in the river and events at riverside park.
Such a gem of a property! A great location, walkable to anywhere downtown (we did not use our car at all in town). Well-furnished and well-equipped with all our family needed. Parking and access to the garage was a real plus. Proximity to the river was great too. We would rent again, no question.
