10 Minutes To Monarch Mountain, the Arkansas River and 10 Minutes To Salida!

This is a beautiful 2100 square foot Colorado home with new paint inside and out and new furniture. The kitchen was remodeled and added top of the line Kenmore appliances, granite and tile. Starlink internet was just installed with 200 MB's. Just 10 minutes from the Monarch Mountain ski area, historic Salida and the Arkansas river nestled in the shadows of Mt Shavano.

This property is centrally located just minutes away from hundreds of hiking, biking, ATV and Jeep trails and to the Arkansas river with over 9 rafting companies that specialize in navigating the river up to and including class 5 rapids. The Arkansas is also known for fishing and kayaking and hosts many competitive sporting events a year.

Walking distance from the front door is the Mountain Spirit Winery, a lovely must visit located on the south fork of the Arkansas River.

Please keep in mind that in the winter, front wheel/four-wheel drive vehicles or vehicle chains may be required to maneuver not only the short gravel road leading to the house, but will certainly be required when traversing the pass to get to Monarch Mountain.

Just Amazing
I really cannot express how wonderful our stay at this property was. It was a perfect place for our extended family. The house was spotless and just amazing. Lisa was totally supportive and available although we didn't have any problems. My only wish was that the house was smaller so my wife and I could come back alone. Jut amazing.

This house was beyond expectations- absolutely beautifully decorated, clean, an abundance of necessities (towels, laundry soap, kitchen supplies), and in an AWESOME location. Lisa, the property manager, made sure all of our needs were met and was very easy to get a hold of and communicate with, if needed. Would 10/10 recommend! We hope to be able to visit this beautiful, mountain home again.

Perfect for Monarch Ski Trip
Cozy home with gorgeous views. Convenient drive to Monarch Mountain as well aa into the downtown part of Salida. All the cooking accessories we needed-and more-were provided, along with various condiments, spices, cooking oils. The only thing we were surprised by was how close a couple of the neighboring homes were. From the pictures, the home looks very remote; however, you are close to a main road with a few homes very close by. These factors did not obscure the view or give us any issues, but it’s worth mentioning. We loved our stay and are considering making it a yearly family trip!

Great Stay
We loved our stay! The home was beautiful, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was stocked. I brought some of my own pans to make risotto and ended up not needing any of them. We were travelling with 2 infants. All of the rooms had plenty of space for travel bassinets. We would definitely come back.
