The mountain view and location was awesome! I would say the house is a perfect setup for adult groups looking to just sit and relax. We had 3 kids, and the house/location was a little lackluster for them, but luckily the close proximity to town was just fine. Great place! And the hummingbirds!

We were two adults looking for a private house close to the Arkansas valley. This house fit the bill. The house was exactly as described. Loved that it was all on one floor with just a couple of steps to get inside. The inside was open and spacious. The house sits on several acres so there is a feeling of privacy. Very quiet. Extremely well stocked kitchen. The location was easy to access and very close to BV. Everything was clean and tidy. The host was excellent. In short, no surprises and everything worked. I had the feeling that if there were a problem the host would be right on it. We enjoyed ourselves and wouldn’t hesitate to return. A 5 star experience.

Thank you for the wonderful review! We're so glad the house fit the bill for your Arkansas valley getaway. It's great to hear you enjoyed the privacy and quiet setting on the acreage, the spacious one-floor layout, the well-stocked kitchen, and the easy access to BV. Your kind words about a clean, tidy space and a smooth, surprise-free stay mean a lot to us.

Super comfy

We stayed three nights in this cozy little spot. The house was very comfortable for our group of five. The home was very clean and check in process was seemless period We would definitely stay here again if we needed a VRBO in Buena Vista.

Very comfortable and fully supplied house in great dark sky area

This house is exactly as described and very comfortable. We weren't really cooking while we were there, but it has everything you need to cook. It's in a dark sky community so we brought our telescope - great viewing over the new moon cycle.

House listing was as stated, well stocked and very comfortable. The views surrounding the property were absolutely stunning. Mountains pretty much 360°. The town of Buena Vista was a awesome little town, so many places to eat and drink. Hiking and fishing was a blast. Definitely would stay here agian. Dave S.

Serenity

We were very pleased with the property and it afforded us all the room we needed for 3 couples. There was an abundance of cookware, plates and utensils, if necessary. We had a very pleasant visit with the host who was more than willing to make our stay comforable. We will hope to return to this property if and when we are back in the area.
