Mt. Harvard Chalet at Creekside chalets

Mt. Harvard is one of the more popular cabins among the families who come to visit us. This is due primarily to its great location close to the water's edge and the fact that there's a large grassy area in front that's a perfect place for kids to play. There's a large deck with seating for four next to the grassy area as well as a picnic table and charcoal grill. Just steps away, you'll find your private outdoor hot tub.

Great Cabin
The cabin was exactly as described. Well stocked kitchen, comfy bed with nice linens, lots of towels, our own hot tub and beautiful grounds! We hated to leave and hope to come back soon.

Quick getaway
We just wanted a nice cabin to get away for a few days. Creekside Chalets filled the bill perfectly. Maybe a little too close to the highway but we rarely heard traffic and it did make it convenient to getting into Salida. We loved our stay and staff were very friendly.

Nice Getaway!
Overall we were very pleased with our stay! The chalet was clean (the floors had a bit of debris, but there were a lot of fallen leaves outside) and comfortable. It was a beautiful, quiet spot. We travel full-time and generally work from wherever we are so our only complaint would be that there was no stable internet. We were unable to connect on our phones, iPads or computers and there is no cell service - so we ended up having to forgo work for the few days we were there. If you’re looking for a place to disconnect though, this is a wonderful spot!

Great property!
Our chalet was everything we needed for our family of 5. The kids loved the creek running nearby and the hot tub. You can hear traffic as the property is located right off of highway 50, but there is a tree line separating you so you don’t see all the cars and trucks coming down Monarch Pass. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay!
