Buena Vista Home Base—Easy access to downtown, trails, river and 14ers : STR-240

We have lived overseas and we've vacationed all over the world, but BV has always appealed to us in a special way. Our family has come regularly in the summer and sometimes at Christmas for over 20 years before we decided to settle here permanantly. BV has so much to offer. We love rafting, fishing and hiking in the summer; leaf peeping in the fall; snowshoeing and snowboarding in the winter, and off-roading in our jeep year around. We're eager to share the BV charm and local adventures with our renters. We hope you have a wonderful visit, and we'll do all we can to make that happen.

Happy Trails,
Rob and Janna
