Bella Vista Salida awaits...Minutes from downtown Salida, 30 min to Monarch!

Come and play in the Arkansas River valley or ski at Monarch and stay at Bella Vista Salida, a beautiful 3 bedroom, 2 bath home with breathtaking mountain views and only minutes from downtown Salida and less than 30 minutes to Monarch Mountain and just minutes away from some of the finest recreation on the planet.

Bella Vista Salida is expertly furnished in a contemporary southwestern style and has afully equipped gourmet kitchen, laundry/mud room with washer/dryer, front and rear outdoor patios with outdoor grill. Did we mention the stunning mountain views?

Skiing, biking, hiking, gold medal fly fishing, arts, dining, music, festivals, world class whitewater, hunting and more are all right here to enjoy. Or just sit and relax on the patio. We are just 7 minutes from downtown Salida, 25 minutes from fantastic skiing at Monarch Mountain, 13 minutes from the Arkansas River (Stone Bridge access), 26 minutes to Mt Princeton Hot Springs, 21 minutes to Brown's Canyon (Hecla Junction access). There is plenty of room for the raft/snow machine trailer so bring the toys (no livestock trailers please)!

Salida is a wonderful old mining town with a vibrant arts and music scene and a growing number of local craft breweries and distilleries. Home to FIBark, America's oldest and boldest whitewater festival, each June and numerous other festivals throughout the year, Salida is a great vacation destination. Did we mention the weather? The weather is awesome in Salida nearly all the time.

Bella Vista Salida is in Pinion Hills, just outside Salida. We are only 3 hours (167 miles) from Denver International Airport and 2:15 (109 miles) from the Colorado Springs Airport. You don't even have to drive over a high mountain pass to get here!

We loved our stay here! We have a family of 6 with 4 grown kiddos & there was plenty of room & space. The beds were comfy, the couch was large enough for everyone to hang out & the dining room table was perfect for games & eating. It was so clean & felt homey. One of the best things was the view. It was hard to leave!

We had such a fantastic weekend here! The house was beautiful, spacious, and clean, and the views were spectacular. Great birdwatching, too! It was close to town and good hikes, but one day we stayed in and around the house all day because it was so comfortable and relaxing. I would definitely recommend it and would stay here again then next time I'm in Salida!
