We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Jumpin Good Farmstay. The location is easily accessible from Buena Vista & all the mountain activity you could want is right at your doorstep. What’s really nice is the owner is onsite & so very helpful. Dawn is the best.Recommend to anyone!!
What fun for Grandma, Auntie, and grandkids to stay on a goat farm! Huge house with great kitchen and lots of places to hang out. Fun to be so close to the animals and the big mountains in the background. BV is a sweet mountain town and there's lots of hiking around and the river to enjoy. Highly recommend for a true Colorado experience.
This was exactly what we needed! We were in town to run the Leadville 100 and this property gave us the rest and relaxation before and after the event. Thank you so much for hosting us and we will definitely be back!
Coming home to Colorado for an extended family getaway for Christmas was just what we needed! Our host, Dawn, decorated the house for Christmas and was super accommodating. The weather conditions kept us inside but the house had plenty of spaces for us to separate ourselves into small groups or gather all together in one space. Whether we were all eating together around the formal dining table, playing games, watching football or reading books there was ample space to do that in. We couldn’t have asked for a better space to come together to just be together. We went to Mt. Princeton Hot Springs, shopped and ate in downtown Buena Vista. Skiing was not far away but blizzard conditions and wind chill kept us inside. The farm had lots of animals to go visit but again the wind was so bad we didn’t venture out much. I highly recommend this house rental to multi family groups!
The property is just as advertised. Very clean, comfortable and spacious. Minutes from Buena Vista with wonderful views. Was a perfect farm setting with the goats and horses. Our group especially appreciated the parking, which was perfect for our two trucks, trailers that carried out off-road equipment.
Area was safe and secure for parking as you traveled through two gates to get to the home. The host was very helpful in directing us to get a tire patched on a Saturday for one of the trucks. Will definitely return next year if the home is available for our family ATV trip. Thank you
This farm is just a little slice of heaven! The farm is a well-built establishment and excellently maintained. Everything you could possibly need is already ready for you at the home. The location is wonderful, with the mountains in view from everywhere. There are also a bunch of fun locations to visit nearby. We visited the sand dunes, cottonwood hot springs, st. elmo's ghost town, and salida for lunch on the river. All are just a short drive away. We often visited the animals on the farm as well; horses are visible right outside the back window! Thank you Dawn for sharing your home with us. We will remember it for a lifetime!
Our group was a party of seven coming out to Buena Vista for a mountain trail race. Found this home on VRBO. The group loved the home because it is a large home with a lot of space to spread out. The home is great for a large group or two big families. Lots of space to hang out together or be alone. The group thought the fact that we were on a goat farm was the coolest idea. The goat farm is so cute. It has a lot of goats but it also has horse, sheep, dogs and cats. They have a little store that sells really good cheese.
We found a great whitewater rafting company River Runners not far from the house. Highly recommend Ki.
Main Street of town is a mile and a half from the house with shops and restaurants.
The JGGD was the perfect place for our summer friends and family gathering.
We always enjoy the good times in Chaffee County, and the guest house at JGGD made it all the more sweet.
Lots of space, good animals on the farm, and a special setting to get us outdoors.
The kitchen and dining room were great for the times we were in. All the amenities and creature comforts of the guest house were superb.
Thank you!
Dawns house is super clean and well located. Ear Buena Vista. As a family of 7 it is a treat for each kid to have their own bed and this house was amazing. Thanks for a great stay!
I'll be honest: I felt like I was in a Hallmark Christmas movie. It couldn't have been better! We loved our stay....it far exceeded our expectations. The house is absolutely wonderful, and perfect for our party of 8 adults. The pictures don't do it justice- it's really large, welcoming, homey, warm, well stocked, with great touches throughout. We stayed over Christmas week, and we were so happy to even have pretty Christmas decorations up. It's magnificent in that the house is in the valley, so there are mountains surrounding you in every direction. Waking up to the view of horses roaming just steps from the house was priceless. We went horseback riding, to natural hot springs, and skiing all in a week from this location. The downtown is cute and a very quick drive down the road. All 8 of us agreed that we will definitely want to return one day soon. Thank you for a fantastic stay- it made my Christmas wish come true!
AWESOME Farmstay for family with lots of space to spreadout and Enjoy!
Our family enjoyed the HUGE Farmhouse and all the animals. It was absolutely beautiful and very close to Buena Vista and multiple hiking paths, mountains and places to eat.
The house had everything we needed. If you have children, it's perfect. Our grandson absolutely LOVED all the animals. The settings was amazing and we had family photos taken on the property.
This house is gorgeous, with everything you could possibly need. My kids had a blast playing with all the toys in the loft and petting the goats and horses. The beds were comfy, and it was a true farm experience waking up to the crowing rooster. The views from the property are amazing, and it’s close to town and tons of hiking. 10/10!
