Quiet country home
We loved this house. It was sp spacious and well equipped. Lots of light, well insulated and plenty of seating. We appreciated the very secure fencing around the property’s backyard as our beloved golden enjoyed keeping watch over the surrounding fields. There are great backroads for walking with no traffic and a nearby stream for wading. We hope to have a return trip.

great property for visiting the area
Clean and just as described - this property did not disappoint in any way. great for the dogs with the outside fenced area and the adjacent BLM land that leads down to a great spot on the River. Wish I'd brought my fly rod to catch a few of the dozens and maybe hundreds of trout I saw in the pool at the river access. Check in/out and communication were all great. Thanks!

Overall really good stay
Property and level of service was as expected from the listing. Good for our dog with size of property, fenced backyard (with chipmunk for chasing), and access to river. Only negative was daytime noise from heavy vehicles on the highway.

Buena Vista Tri
The kitchen was very well stocked with the tools needed for cooking most anything. Appliances were nice as well. The house also has plenty of blankets and other needed bedding and linens and tools. The home was in a very serene and beautiful area with a lovely patio to enjoy the outdoors. The fence was perfect for our dogs. The downstairs bathroom has a non-privacy louver door with a window sheer drape-type material covering the slats in the door, but it can be seen and heard through. The queen spring mattress on the main level was not comfortable for me. The river was a few minutes walk down the road. I had hoped it was just outside of the house but it was hard to tell with the pictures. Our stay there was a great experience. I would just want a privacy bathroom door downstairs.

Wonderful cabin near Buena Vista
This is a great cabin near the Arkansas river just north of Buena Vista. The cabin has great amenities including a nice back yard including a fire pit and grill. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The living room is spacious with plenty of room to relax. Easy access to the river for all of your recreation needs. I hesitate to oversell it as we plan to return next year!

Colorado Spring Break
The rental was perfect for my family to enjoy a Colorado vacation. We fished for trout, visited the hot springs a short drive away outside Buena Vista, and relaxed. The fenced yard was great for our dog, and the location of the property was ideal for us - far enough away from town for quiet and solitude yet close enough for convenience. The only mishap was that the coffee maker stopped working on the second day, but the owner responded immediately to the issue and it was resolved with a new replacement. Great overall experience!!!

40th Birthday Spring Break Getaway
Had a great time and this little cabin was perfect for our stay. Brought our two kids and our dog for spring break and my 30th birthday. Close enough to everything but nice and private. Great river access for a little walk. Lots of comfy throw blankets and everything else we needed. Thanks!

Amazing cabin that catered to furry friends!
What an amazing stay! It’s not often that you find a rental that accepts dogs, let alone caters to them! There were plenty of dog begs for all of our furry companions, lint rollers, and the fenced in yard was such a relief to top it off. The cabin was tastefully decorated, homey, and the perfect place for our family to land after a long day of snowmobiling. Extra stars for having a driveway to accommodate trailers for all of your toys! Bob and Lianne were so accommodative of our early and late departure which was another huge relief. A highly recommended stay for sure!

A relaxing mountain oasis
Loved the location of this property as it was just outside Buena Vista and quiet with the rush of the river noise in the background, yet still a quick drive to town whenever we needed something. This home away from home allowed us to play hard during the day in the mountains and come home and relax and make dinner at night. We ate every meal outside on the patio - it was breathtaking. We will definitely stay here again for our annual summer trip!

Not ideal in Wintet
You have a nice home perfect for a family. Unfortunately, It is not an ideal VRBO in the Winter because the home did not warm up in the common space to stay comfortable. We needed to wear coats and beanies to stay warmer. The bedrooms did however stay warm with the space heaters which made it cozy. I am not sure if you were aware, but mice are in your home. We saw one run into the kitchen closet. And mouse droppings were by the dog bowl. So, it was a bit unsettling knowing there were unwanted visitors. It wasn’t an ideal situation for a stay.

Perfect Getaway!
This cabin was perfect for our family vacation! Sits just out of town with access to the Arkansas River just down the trail as well as the town and mountain trails near by. Has a creek running past so sitting outside listening to the water and piece and quiet and seeing a few deer pass by was so relaxing! Would definitely book this property again for future vacations!

A Great Week
We just spent a wonderful week in the Blue Cabin. I absolutely loved the walk to the river. The cabin was very clean and well equipped. The drive into town was easy and the scenic way is was beautiful. The only thing that would've made the stay better is if we could have done a load of laundry while there.

Lovely Cabin near the river!
The cabin was lovely! It was in easy walking distance to the river via BLM land. Made for wonderful evening walks after dinner. My one and only complaint was my own fault. I remember reading that the listing was dog friendly. I didn’t think about how that would translate to dog bowls(clean!) in a couple of corners and some dog hair finding it’s way out of the carpet as our stay was about a week. It did not smell, and was clean and comfortable! I will be more careful next time when booking. We appreciated how quiet it was, and the sound of water flowing in a channel directly behind the cabin.
