About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Historic mountain view home just two blocks from downtown Salida and the river..

Plan your escape to the Centennial State and book your stay at this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom Salida home, which sleeps 4 comfortably! Offering cozy accommodations, terrific amenities and an unbeatable location in the Rocky Mountains, this property ensures the Colorado escape you have been looking for.

UNBEATABLE LOCATION
We are peacefully located just two blocks from the heart of the downtown Salida. This is the ideal location for exploring Colorado’s largest historic district. Take a stroll downtown to check out various art galleries, breweries, restaurants, shopping district and summer festivals.

An endless list of outdoor activities are within arm’s reach of this property! In the winter, you will be within 20 miles of Monarch Mountain for prime skiing and snowboarding. During the summer and winter, explore a variety of hiking, running and mountain biking trails, accessible within three blocks.

Summer months offer adventurous opportunities. For a fun afternoon, grab a cold one at a local brewery and catch some live music at Riverside Park. The river walk is just one block away where you can enjoy swimming, and inner tubing. For a bigger river adventure, join an outfitter for a rafting trip through the scenic Royal Gorge or Brown’s Canyon.

To cap off memorable days, dine at tasty local eateries, like Amicas and the famous Boathouse Cantina on the river - both within walking distance.

THE HOUSE
We are in the business of sleep and relaxation because we know this location is full of outdoor adventures. Hence, we have invested in our bedding. From the top rated Helix and Beauty Rest mattresses to luxurious linens. We use Comphy© spa linens: signature softness and a track record of improving sleep. Best of all, these linens support small business and are eco-friendly to help us in our commitment to the environment.

We constantly update our property to make things more comfortable for our guests. Upon entry of this historic home, you will immediately notice the authentic 1890’s hardwood floors and abundant windows, allowing natural light to flow through the interior.

Look forward to unwinding in the open, well-lit living room, where you can kick up your feet, sink into the comfortable sofa, and watch TV on the flat-screen television where you can stream your favorites from Disney, Netflix, and Hulu.

When the weather is nice, relax on the front porch while gazing at the Sangre De Cristo and Saguache Ranges, including the 14,000-foot Collegiate Peaks.

Back inside, the well-equipped kitchen has all the essential cooking tools, so you can whip up tasty meals and snacks throughout your stay. These home-cooked meals can be enjoyed in the adjacent dining area or out on the back patio, featuring a covered outdoor table, bbq grill and a small flower garden.

THE ONLY BATHROOM
This full en-suite bathroom is located in the second bedroom and is shared with the guests staying in the master. We get it; this is potentially an awkward location for the only bathroom. Our guests comment that the house is Comfortable, Cozy, and Clean. We feel these far outweigh the Character of the bathroom location.

Perfect location, great host
A cute original mining home updated and conveniently located 2 blks from downtown Salida. It was our base for a two-week stay and the host(ess) answered any requests promptly. We walked from the house to shop, eat, drink and hike nearby trails along the river. The owners live next door and both properties are well kept.

Great place in Sakuda
Perfect spot for us during our recent visit to Salida. Close to “ downtown” Salida, Sweetie’s and The Biker & the Baker, multiple walks & trails. Well-equipped kitchen, outside patio & bar-b-q. One item to note: the one bathroom is only accessible thru one of the bedrooms. Just make sure layout works for your travel configuration. Love the place-we’ll be bacj!
