About this property

*Sweet Retreat*- one block to Main St. STR-080

  • Everything you love about BV is walkable from this completely remodeled house. Just steps from Main Street and a short walk to South Main, town square and the Arkansas River. This house is super clean, with new appliances and furniture. You're just 10 minutes from Cottonwood and Mt. Princeton Hot Springs and 20 minutes from Salida. Get to Monarch and Ski Cooper ski resorts in under an hour. This is our 2nd home and we want to share it with others who will treat it like their own. Features 3 bedrooms: 1 king bed, 1 queen bed and a bunk bed with a twin over double. The living room has a nice, new sleeper sofa. Bonus room that can be used as a small 4th bedroom, office or play area for the kids. Giant yard with fire pit.

    * please note. The house has a mini split air conditioner in the living room and does not have central a/c

Easy family trip

We really enjoyed our time in Buena Vista. The house was great and allowed our family and friends to enjoy lots of time together and explore the area as well! The owners were very responsive and helpful. Our kids loved the bunk beds and the pack n play was perfect to have for our little one!

Beautiful, Spacious & Family-Friendly

This property was absolutely beautiful and had plenty of space for our two families, including babies and kids — we could’ve easily fit a few more people. The location couldn’t be better — just a short walk to everything, including a local ice cream spot just a block away! The home was clean, check-in was smooth, and it made for a super comfortable stay.One small heads-up: the bathrooms didn’t have any soap and had very limited toiletries, so just be sure to bring your own.Overall, it was a perfect place for families and we’re already looking forward to coming back!

Perfect Buena Vista Home

This house was perfect!! Much nicer inside than expected. Extremely comfortable couches, dining room and beds. High quality linens and towels. The kitchen was great! I love to cook and was able to find every kitchen gadget I wanted plus lots of counter space. Moreover, the owners left paper towels, toilet paper, laundry detergent, dishwasher liquid, spices and whatever you need to feel settled (even though we brought all are own not expecting to walk into a “home” versus a bare bones rental). There is a very private fenced in backyard with chairs, hammocks and a fire pit. Communications with the owner were seamless and timely. We were a party of 6- including 3 generations and one dog. This place was perfect!!! Within 2 blocks of town so everyone could explore at their own pace- yet not too close to hear any noise. We were there during a 90 degree weekend- the combination of fans and a split Ac unit in the living room kept us all comfortable. Plenty of room for our bikes and paddleboards as well as 3 cars. Very, Very happy with this rental!

Perfect location

Our expectations were exceeded with our stay. The location was about a block away from Main Street to be able to find several dining options in the evening. Great location for all the area's activities - whitewater rafting, hiking, hot springs, fly fishing, and more. Highly recommend.

Sweet Retreat

What a lovely property! The home was clean and well stocked. Communication was great and the home was everything they promised it would be. It was only a block from Main Street and close to all the activities. It was a great place for our family to gather as we celebrated the wedding of one of our kids. Highly recommend the Sweet Retreat!

Everything was perfect and so easy. Great house, great manager/owners. Amazing communication! No issues. Quick 4 day fishing trip with my dad and brother. Couldn’t have asked for a closer place to the fly shop and to Main Street.
