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

The trees are starting to turn! Bring your family and your toys to this spacious home which is a perfect place to start your adventures in Buena Vista. We have TV and high speed WiFi when you want to relax as well as board games and cards. You can drink your coffee or wine in the fully fenced back yard or take the kids to play in the public park only a block away. Your mountain bikes, fishing gear or skis will be safe in our garage. Hiking, rafting, mountain biking, rock climbing and fly fishing are close in the summer. In the winter, you’re less than a hour away from both Monarch Mountain and Ski Cooper. The kitchen is well-equipped if you feel like making a meal, or you can walk a mile or drive five minutes to any of our delicious local restaurants on Main Street or South Main. At the end of the day, you can always be sure that the beds are cozy and the showers are hot.

It was clean and comfortable. We sat out on the deck for a while, which was private and quiet. It’s a great location. We walked to the Wesley Rose at the Chateau for dinner. I would stay there again.

Great place in Buena Vista

Great place to stay: very quiet neighborhood and the beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well organized with cabinets labeled and a large table with ample seating for 6. Parking in the garage was a nice benefit. Janna was a great host and communicated well.

Mountain Majesty Oasis

The house was beautiful, clean, and inviting. The host had thought of everything a person could possibly need. They labeled all cabinets, towels were set out for guests, nightstands had plugs for electronics, and she had a personal greeting with a small gift.The beds were comfy, kitchen was great for meals, and large table provided for family games! Thank you for great memories. We hope to visit again.
