Lovely!

The place was beautiful and clean, the Mountain View’s were perfect for the weekend! We had a very difficult time finding the right location as the directions from the listing take you to a house across the street with the same address. It was dark and snowing when we arrived and as the listing said, there’s no service or WiFi available so make sure you screenshot the pages like it says because it’s a lifesaver! Overall, loved it!!

Sisters trip

We loved everything about the cabin! The location, view, it was very cozy. It would have been helpful to have had the porch light on since we arrived in the evening. Cleaning service needs to do more dusting there were Cobb Webbs on the dinning lights for the cost we paid for cleaning service.

Perfect spot to relax after a long day of hiking

This cabin was a perfect place to relax and recharge after days of hiking and exploring. The deck is ideal for stargazing and for watching the sun rise with a cup of coffee in the morning. Beds are super comfortable, and the sounds of the nearby creek lulled us to sleep. The kitchen has everything we needed for preparing meals.

Stargazing

Overall, thus is a nice, clean property. If you want rest and stargazing from the deck it's great. The downside is a 20 minute drive into Salida, which was fine. The little grouping of homes here are very close together. People definitely know you're visiting.

Loved the location

Husband and I stayed 4 nights. Loved the location, nice quiet area with beautiful view and river right below and was only around 20 minute drive to downtown Salida. WiFi was decent and kitchen well stocked. We had everything we needed. My only complaint is the mattress. The bed was so hard. I will say I am use to sleeping on a memory foam mattress, but still I travel and it’s been a long time since I have tried to sleep on something that hard. Other than that everything was perfect.

Holiday Getaway close to Monarch

My husband and I were very pleased with this VRBO. The home was very clean, looked exactly like the pictures, well stocked, and had clear communication and instructions from the Property Managers. It was an easy 5-7 minute drive to Monarch, which was our primary reason for staying in Garfield, and had everything plus more to meet our needs. They even left puppy poop bags next to the house keys for our fur babies. Would recommend and stay here again!

Beautiful spot for a ski trip

Stayed here for a long weekend ski trip at Monarch and the location couldn’t have been better! Only a few minutes from the resort even with weekend morning traffic, and the home itself is incredibly cozy. Beautiful views, a warm shower, wood-burning stove, in-unit laundry, nice open kitchen — we couldn’t have asked for a better dog-friendly place to stay! Only thing that was confusing is another home in the small town of Garfield shares this property’s street address. Be sure you’re at the correct home when checking in or you might look like you’re trespassing. Thankfully the neighbors helped me out!

Sweet little cabin hideaway!

We love staying at this cabin. This is our third say here and we love the quiet location, the pretty view from the deck, and the closeness to town. It's rustic and extremely comfortable. This place has all the amenities we need. The kitchen is great. And the check-in process was a breeze. We will stay here often!

Beautiful property made for a great getaway

This cozy remodeled cabin was perfect for our family. We loved the layout of the cabin, and the deck in the back gave us amazing views of the valley. It had all the amenities we could want, and when we needed something, the hosts were quick to respond and easy to work with. Perfect launching point for many of the adventures to be had in Chaffee county!

GREAT PLACE

Really nice cabin. Just the right size for 2 people and two dogs. Quite and the deck was amazing along with view. The only negative was that we had to find dog parks for the pups. No place for them to potty but on gravel or by the dumpster. Wouldn't bring them back. Overall this place was a winner.
