Loved the house and neighborhood setting. Loved walking the block to the riverwalk every morning with coffee in hand. It was peaceful and at same time energizing. Could not have asked for more!

Wonderful location for walking to restaurants, hiking trails and playgrounds. Family friendly activities and great views. Dog park needs some work and hopefully BV will work on it. The whole family ran in July 4th fun run. Thank you for the opportunity to make the memories

If you enjoy South Main in Buena Vista, this is a great spot. Walking distance to amazing food, drinks, trails, the river, and all sorts of other entertainment and dining about a half mile away on Main Street. A very welcoming community with friendly people and create live music on The Lawn.

This home was beautiful and perfect for family! It was close to the Surf Hotel where our son was getting married. Will definitely stay there again!

We all so enjoyed our stay for 6 nights. The location is beautiful, 5 min walk to the river and park/play area for the kids. Walkable to the Main Street also. The house was great. It fit 10 people easily. The kitchen was set up with everything we needed, as far as appliances and utensils. The grill outside came in very handy. We would be very willing to stay there again! Jeffery was responsive when we had any issues. Loved the main bedroom!

This house was fantastic! We had plenty of space, and it was well furnished with everything we needed. Perfect location and very walkable to the river, the Surf, Eddyline, Midland coffee shop, etc. Would definitely stay here again!
5.0 / 5.0
The house was spotless, kitchen is well appointed and the property manager was immediately responsive when we couldn't light the fireplace (the remote was out of batteries and she resolved it quickly). It would have been handy to have a bathroom on the lower level with the two bedrooms but that's not the fault of the owner or property manager.

South Main is a favorite of our family. I loved this place and will be back in the future.
5.0 / 5.0
The house was equipped with everything needed for the trip and perfectly situated just less than 1 mile from downtown restaurants and shops. It was ideal for our kids, being steps away from an open park space with a climbing rock and easy access to the trails. New restaurants and shops are building up around this house-will be interesting to see the growth in this area of BV in a few years. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a fantastic trip to Beuna Vista. This house was very nice and spacious. The proximity to the Surf hotel where we were attending a wedding was so close. You can walk to a coffee shop and restaurants in no time. The river is also a short distance away. The host was easy to work with and allowed early check in which I appreciated. I would note that there is no AC in the house which wasn't a huge problem for us, but I think should be noted more clearly in the listing. We left the windows open, and that made it cool enough. I'd also suggest adding window coverings in all the bedroom windows. We were all up pretty early due to the bright sun coming through with no blinds on some of the windows. Otherwise, our trip was great and this house is a nice place in a great location.

My entire family enjoyed a wonderful two week stay in this lovely mountain home. The location is great, close to restaurants and the Arkansas River, which was a big plus for the fisherman in our family. We loved spending time on the front porch, enjoying family time and the beautiful scenery. A bathroom on the bottom floor (where two bedrooms are located) would have been nice but we certainly would stay here again.

We stayed here for the long Thanksgiving holiday. It is a beautiful property within walking distance to the river, shops and the Eddyline. The house has plenty of room and was perfectly furnished for our group of adults and kids. We had a wonderful time!

Perfect stay for weekend wedding
This house was everything a family could want for a short trip to Buena Vista, and most likely a longer one too. We were here for a weekend wedding at the Surf Hotel, and with family in the wedding party appreciated the close proximity. The house was spacious, comfortable and well stocked. Due to COVID concerns it was great to have the backyard outdoor space. Communication with the owner was easy, he was quick to respond, and very, very accommodating to the my requests. Would love to come back and spend more time here.

House was great! Location is perfect. We were with young kids and it was easy to pop over to the park, go for a hike, or walk over to Main Street. Host was super responsive and proactive. Everything in the house worked well. We’d love to stay there again sometime!

Beautiful home in lovely Buena Vista on idyllic street! Our stay was great!
Buena Vista has so much to offer and this house does too! Charming (but generous in size for our group of seven!) and on a picturesque street in the S Main district, it has quick access to walks and food and green space, bike rides, shopping, coffee, a brewery, music and of course - the River. This house has plenty of space for our group of seven to retreat upon our return the house each afternoon or evening. The kitchen is generous and we found it easy for us to be in there getting our own snacks or making breakfast. Homeowner was very quick to respond to questions and helpful…. Highly recommend!

Awesome location!
Amazing location, pet friendly, but still the cleanest vrbo I've stayed in; beautiful home with an open floor plan great for enjoying company. Really appreciated how outfitted the house was, clean, and proximity to drinking, dining, and the Arkansas (w/ walking/bike path). Hope to stay again!
