Great for medium sized groups and pet friendly
Property has 3 queen beds in the bedrooms and a large sectional couch. Good sized backyard for your dog and one of the best views in Buena Vista. It's right off the highway, but you could barely hear traffic unless you have the windows open.Property is clean and well stocked with a breeze of a check in process and friendly owners.

Great stay in Buena Vista
We had two fantastic nights in The Rapid Ranch House after a week of camping up at Twin Lakes. The house was great! Everything was clean and well maintained. Each teenager had their own room, which was huge plus. We enjoyed the hot tub, pool table and pingpong. Highly recommend this house.

Just right!
We had a great experience staying at The Rapid Ranch! Easy location in town with plenty of parking. House had all the supplies we needed. Hot tub was excellent. Had plenty of room for all of us plus our dogs. It is right off the main highway so traffic noise is a tad loud. Other than that, a great place to stay!

A great visit to Mt Princeton area
The location was perfect, just out of town but close enough for a beautiful walking path and an ease to walk or drive into town. The property is kept up nicely, instructions for recycle and garbage along with water and furnace were clearly marked and all appliances worked nicely. The house was very clean and tidy and very very welcoming. Hot tub was a lovely addition to our stay and the neighborhood is quiet and well kept. The beds were comfy and we enjoyed the game room. The kitchen gadgets were helpful, coffee grinder and French press being our favorites as we enjoyed the local Brown Dog coffee roasters close by.

Excellent Buena Vista Getaway Home
This was the perfect house for us to spend Christmas in. The location to downtown Buena Vista, as well as the surrounding areas could not have been more perfect and convenient. The views were stunning. The hot tub was an amazing addition to the home, and we loved that it was open and modern.

Wonderful house with great views
We had a wonderful stay. The house had everything we needed and the most fabulous views. While the back of the house sits right on a major highway, it had a nice privacy fence. We hardly noticed the traffic noise. We would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Alex Murray

Host profile image
Hi, my name is Alex. I purchased this home in Buena Vista due to my love for the outdoors and quiet mountain towns.

Why they chose this property

We have beautiful views of Mt.Princeton from the front of the house. The home is in a quiet neighborhood while still being close to Main Street.

What makes this property unique

Our home is special due to our 6 person hot tub, game room, large family room and dining table, fenced in back yard, fenced in dog walking path across the streeet, scenic mountain views, and close proximity to town.
