The space
This rural property is best for couples who enjoy outdoor recreation, sitting looking at the views and plan to visit local events - or family in the area. WIFI, smart TV and hot water included. Guests may opt for eating in using the included fully equipped kitchen where they will find coffee provided to start their day, or choose to dine out at one of the many local restaurants. To end each day, the views of the 14K foot mountains to the west are spectacular in the evening and encourage relaxing on the deck as the sun sets. The property location is rural with easy access, but a short drive to either town of Salida or Buena Vista, as well as local attractions such as mining ghost towns, Monarch Ski Area and hot springs in the area.

Guest access
Guests have the privacy of the entire guest cottage and are able to walk, hike or bike over the 35 acres plus the adjacent BLM land to the east to the Arkansas River and Nat’l Monument 1.5 miles.
