Guys ski trip

Six 40-year-old men stayed at this property for a ski trip... and LOVED it! There was plenty of space, and the basement with the pool table made hanging out so much fun. The property manager was incredibly kind and accommodating of us. Any time that i reached out, my questions were answered promptly. My group would absolutely stay there again if we had back that way. I highly recommend this house!

River Play

True Salida Vibes

Great place for a group! Feels like a normal house, not a contemporary snooty fresh built STR. Stocked with everything you could ever need, and an easy 15 minute walk to town. We loved the garage for staging/drying our river gear.

Served our needs!

We needed a place for 11 and this fit the bill. Nice rooms, down Stairs bath a bit small for all the beds there. Couches in bad condition but this did not bother us. If you are looking g for real nice this is not it. If you want a place where you dont have to worry about your jeans staining the white couch this is it! Kitchen is nicely stocked. Having g a second fridge in the basement was awesome, and we used the grill and pool table. Great location.

Excellent choice to space out

This property had everything we needed for a long weekend in Salida & skiing in Monarch. Kitchen & bathrooms are fully loaded with everything you need. We didn’t spend a ton of time inside, but having 2 levels was nice to spread out and everyone had their own bedroom. My only recommendation is that you bring slippers to put on when you take your shoes off at the front door. We didn’t have a dog with us, but they are encouraged/welcomed at this property so that probably contributes to the carpet needing a deep cleaning. It was so nice to have extra tp, paper towels, laundry detergent & cleaning supplies there for our use and the pool table was fun! We would definitely stay here again!!

Ski Family Vacation between Christmas and New Years Day

We enjoyed our stay in Salida for the most part. The property manager, Wendy, was excellent. She was very prompt at returning our calls when we ran into some glitches. The pool table was a hit. The ability to dry out our ski clothe at the downstairs entrance was a plus especially with the wood-burning stove. It was nice for the adults to have a little more quiet in the upper level. The square dining room table proved to be a hit when we were all gathered to play board games. We never were able to get the upstairs TV to work well ( the Amazon firestick was slow) although the one downstairs worked fine. The bath drain did not stay plugged to take a bath so we just used a wash cloth. Also, the kitchen faucet would drip if you did not position it in a certain place. Those are things that can be improved. However, as I said, Wendy was very prompt to respond to any calls. The first day we were there, a toilet got plugged and her husband was right there with a plunger and took care of the problem. It was a nice neighborhood and an easy walk to go into town. The drive to Monarch Mountain was not far (lots of snow!!!!).
