Great place in the woods!

We loved your family trip to Buena Vista and this house was great! Nice that it was remote but also easy to get into BV or drive to Salida. Would definitely recommend this house to others! We appreciated the toiletries and basic pantry items provided too! Our kids loved the old school video game and playing outside.

Early Spring Getaway

My friends and I had a wonderful time in the cabin, we stayed for two nights and the place was amazing with the location, the views, and the privacy. The cabin was very neat and everything worked just fine, the instructions were very accurate and helpful. The communication with the hosts was very prompt and welcoming. The fresh flowers on the dining table was very much appreciated. Thank you.

Updated cabin in the woods

Everything went well when we checked in, and communicating with our host was easy. They replied very quickly to messages. My son enjoyed the small arcade downstairs and watching movies on the main level.
