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!

Great place proximate to BV
Peaceful, comfortable place to stay when hiking nearby mountains-
This property was very warming and in a great location. Spent the weekend with some family there while shopping and hitting the Cottonwood hot springs. We plan to stay again in this house as we get out there at least twice a year!!!
Nice place to get away from the city life without being too far away from the essentials. Views are amazing and the surrounding community is very quiet. Would definitely book again!
This was a home away from home! This home was very well stocked and a very comfortable place, we will definitely stay here again! Thank you for the accommodations!
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.
Was a wonderful place to stay while we attended a wedding in Buena Vista. It was so nice to see the mountain peaks and the deer coming down the valley each evening.
Quiet, peaceful, and a great experience! Thanks so much!
Well appointed. Comfortable beds. Room to spread out. Centrally located on Arkansas River. Excellent kitchen & all necessary tools to cook gourmet meals.
Fabulous location, well appointed, beds very comfortable, appreciated the available laundry. Would recommend to friends

Felt (almost) like home
The house was very clean and comfortable surrounded by the mountain range. In the morning it was fun to watch the deer graze just a few steps away. Bed and bedding very comfortable. Would definitely recommend!
Well provisioned spacious house, located to ensure 360 degree incredible views. Central to both Buena Vista and Leadville, short trips to Arkansas River for fly fishing or rafting. Collegiate Peaks dream lication
Great place for a family. Everyone had their own space. Beautiful views from every window. Loved eating on the deck protected from the wind. Wonderfully stocked kitchen which was a comfort to cook in as a family. Had everything anyone could need.

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.

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.
This a place feels like home. The kitchen is chock full of supplies, including spices and condiments. Excellent water pressure in the showers. Windows all open easily in the summer to let the cool air in at night. Location is perfect to access hiking and fishing, short drives to Salida or Leadville. Lots of wildlife right out the door. Internet was a tad slow, but crews were laying fiber during our stay, so that issue should be resolved shortly! Would stay again.
