Absolutely Beautiful

We had a great stay. The location is beautiful and the cabin is very well stocked with kitchen/cooking utensils and extra bedding/blankets. The hot tub worked well and was very clean. Also, the wifi works great. The property is centrally located and makes a great place to basecamp your Arkansas Headwaters adventures.

The house was clean and cozy, the kids loved the loft and the hot tub. The location was great, close to skiing at Monarch while not too far to go back into Salida. Would highly recommend it for a family get away!

The perfect spot.

The guest house is comfortable and cozy. We love the eclectic vibe and beautiful setting! The well appointed kitchen made meal prep easy. And, we especially enjoyed stargazing from the hot tub and fire pit. We’d love to stay there again!
