Beautiful Property with amazing views
Our family with four adult children loved staying at this ranch property. It was a short walk to the Arkansas river and close enough to Salida that we could venture into town when we wanted. Stunning views surrounded us and we were super close to lots of activity options.
The home is located in a great location surrounded by beautiful scenery.

A Magical Stay!
My six cousins and sister from the east recently spent three nights at Susie's home. Both her home and the setting were stunning! The house was spacious, comfortable, and immaculate. We appreciated the open concept; no matter where we were in the central part of the house, we could visit with each other. The beds were incredibly comfortable. All the amenities she provided were appreciated. Every time I had a question about the house, Susie would reply promptly. We wished we could live there forever! We agreed that the house provided the perfect place for a cousin reunion. We highly recommend Susie's house for a vacation stay and are already talking about returning in a few years. There just aren't enough accolades to describe this house!

Spring Break Ski Trip
Our family had a great time. This house is in a great location. It is a short drive to ski, go to town, or visit the hot springs. The views are spectacular in every direction. The house is well equipped and had everything we needed for our week stay. We enjoyed the wood stove and there was plenty of wood.
We hiked before and after it snowed. Our host responded quickly to our questions and even gave us suggestions of places to hike. She was very friendly and checked to make sure we had everything we needed when it snowed a couple of feet our last two days.
The house is beautiful and was comfortable for our whole family of 7. The only FYI is that the master bathroom does not have a door. When our activities were cancelled due to the amount of snow, the large table was great for playing games and putting together a puzzle that was available. We will stay here again the next time we come.
It is a perfect combination of stunning views, privacy, and convenient location to town and skiing.

Great House
The house is a very pleasant place to stay. It’s bigger and more open than it appears in the pictures. The house is in good shape, very clean and tidy. The location is secluded with great views and close to Monarch Mountain. We would definitely stay there again.

Amazing views
We really enjoyed our stay at the Ranch View House! This home is beautiful and it accommodated all eight of us very comfortably. We absolutely loved the views and the open space in the house and on the property. We also loved the fact that Salida, Monarch Mountain, snowmobiling and the hot springs are all a very close drive.
We are already planning our next trip to Salida. We will definitely book again.

We had two families with a total of 4 kids ages ranging from 6-12 stay for 3 nights. This house accommodated us very well, was comfortable, clean, well stocked, and a nice location near the river.
We had a great time here and would highly recommend staying here.
