Our adult family gathered from nearby states to relax and spend some time together for a long weekend. Salida is a favorite mountain town for us. The condo was spacious, very well equipped and relaxing. 2 BRs each w/baths on the upper floor, living area on the entry level floor between, and 1 BR w/bath on the river level floor (so all need to be able to walk stairs.) Good communication with host. Not lacking one thing. We hope to be back some day.

This became our new favorite place to stay in Salida! A five minute walk to downtown, this townhome is close to shopping, restaurants, hiking, biking, rafting, kayaking-all the fun things that Salida is famous for. The decks are perfect for enjoying that morning coffee and planning the day’s adventures. Everything about this home screams comfort and coziness.

I was so impressed with this condo. It was located in the best possible place with beauty outside every window. It was incredibly clean and welcoming with a touch of class in every room. The communication with our host was wonderful! I would encourage others to take advantage of this perfect opportunity.

Great location and access to Arkansas River fishing out back door, close proximity to town, clean, excellent communication from owner. Decks were awesome for relaxing after hiking, fishing etc. Riverwalk and access to river/wave and park is perfect. This is the perfect rental for family trip and a variety of activities.

This condo was perfectly located just outside of town (easy, short walk to DT) right on the Arkansas River. It was beautifully appointed and we would highly recommend it!

Was a wonderful, well appointed and cared for property. Easy for entertaining and for a group of 5 adults. Really appreciate that they are dog friendly and the location is fabulous!

We could not have been happier with our stay. This well appointed townhome is well maintained, immaculate, in a perfect location on the river and close to town and the owner is delightfully helpful and quick to respond to any inquiry or need. It is, by far, one of the best properties in which we have vacationed.

Nice getaway for our family and pets before the Christmas holiday! Property is exactly as described! Karen has made this into a home away from home for all her visitors. Wonderful location and we love Salida! Thank you

The property was great! The host is very responsive and friendly. We enjoyed the views from 3 balconies of the beautiful Arkansas River. There are several scenic trails to walk/run/bike near the house, and the beautiful downtown is within walking distance. We only used our car a couple of times. We would absolutely stay again!

This is our second time in 5 month staying at this unit in Salida. Each time we've had two couples. The unit is divided with upstairs and downstairs bedrooms and baths, and each bedroom has a private deck overlooking the Arkansas river--so everyone gets spoiled! Easy 5 minute walk to F Street/shopping/restaurants either along First Street, or along the river. The unit garage has been converted into a pool room, which is super fun in the warmer months to just throw the door open and enjoy the evening. There is a second garage too across the parking lot for your car and bikes, and the unit comes with two townie bikes to pedal into town for dinner at Amica's or coffee at Brown Dog. The unit feels private, even though it is in the middle of the building (i.e. not an end unit) and you never/rarely hear anyone else. We'll be staying here again for sure. Karen is a lovely host!

We stayed one month at this wonderful location. Karen was exceptional. She answered all of our questions and fulfilled all of our needs. The location was perfect. We could walk everywhere. The neighbors were great. It is a quite location, which was perfect. Sitting on any of the three river side balconies was a bonus. The pool table in the garage was FUN. We hope to return.

From initial contact with Karen who answered all our questions in a timely manner to arriving to the beautiful townhouse overlooking the river, this was a great place. Each morning we would have our coffee on the balcony and evenings a glass of wine…so pretty! The location is wonderful…easy walk to shops and restaurants! Would definitely stay here again!

Fantastic location and property

We all had the best time & were so comfortable in your beautiful riverside condo. We fished along the river walk, skied twice at Monarch, walked the quaint town of Salida, & enjoyed the hot springs. Best of all was sitting out on the decks & listening to the river. The condo had everything we needed, was professionally cleaned, and the beds were very comfortable. The decor & art work throughout is outstanding. The bonus of a pool table was fun too! Karen is an excellent communicator & made our trip perfect. We will be back again!

Great experience overall. Had two adults and 3 teens with us. Plenty of space and so nice to have king bedrooms separated by kitchen/living space floor for privacy. Pool table room big bonus for kids/teens. Right on the river, which was beautiful and walking distance to everything. We have owned a home in Salida and have stayed in several rentals-this is one of the best for sure!

This condo has the most accurate description I have EVER found of a listing on VRBO! It was very clean, comfortable beds, beautiful and in a great location. The owner and agents were very friendly and helpful with all our questions. Will definitely stay here as many times as it’s available when we head to Salida!

We went to Salida for a wedding this past weekend. We enjoyed staying right on the river. The views were amazing, the house was beautiful and clean, and we had everything we needed. Karen kept in touch with us and made sure we didn’t need anything. We were so impressed, and will definitely plan to go back again in the future. Such a great way to have a mini vacation. We were very comfortable and we didn’t want to leave! Thank you for such a great trip.

Awesome Week
Perfect location, townhouse totally clean (even the windows), very well maintained and little touches everywhere. Lovely decor, comfortable seating, beds very good, great art! Slept with windows open and could hear the gurgle of the River. It was a totally relaxing, great experience, one of my best VRBO rentals ever. Karen could not have been nicer or easier to work with.

Nice Location
We've been going to the Salida area since 1988 and thought this would be a great location near downtown Salida. It was absolutely wonderful to be able to walk out of the condo and right on to the Riverwalk. The condo itself was nice but comfortable sitting space was at a premium. It was just fine for my wife and I but I don't know that I would recommend that six people spend much time other than eating and sleeping in the condo. Of course there's so much to do outside that that may not be a big issue for most folks. We were there on spring break. The weather was nice but when the sun went down we had to retreat back to the condo. Overall a nice place and we would definitely consider it for a future adventure.

Great Riverfront Rental
Very comfortable home for 2 families with 2 little dogs. Easy walk to restaurants and shops. 30 minute drive to Monarch to ski. Loved the porches and view of the Arkansas River. It was cold during our stay and the fireplace was really lovely. Well stocked kitchen and quality furniture. The boys loved the pool table! We would definitely stay here again!

Lovely Townhouse on the Arkansas
This vacation rental home is in the perfect spot in Salida - on the Arkansas River and a short walk to the historic downtown area. The home has everything you could need or want which made it the perfect place for us to start off my boys’ Christmas break. If/when we visit Salida again, we will define what look to see if this rental is available!

Best Rental EVER
My husband and I rented the property to take our parents (and dogs) to Salida for Thanksgiving. It was such a good experience. The kitchen is well stocked with pots and pans, and I had no issues cooking a huge Thanksgiving meal. Parking was easy, and the location was great for walking to downtown or a short drive. The house was super clean and cozy. The host was lovely and checked in with us via message and was helpful. This rental had the most value of any rental I've ever stayed at.

River Relaxation
Perfect vacation rental! This condo is beautifully decorated, well-appointed, clean and situated right on the river. You won't want to leave. We also greatly appreciated all of the communication with Karen. She stays in touch, makes sure you have all of the information needed and has a local contact should any need arise. Thank you, Karen!

Family gathering to visit local family
This property was great. Everything from the location to the comfortable beds to the game room with the pool table. We loved sitting/napping on the balconies and watching/listening to the river. We usually spend most of our time hiking in Salida, but with our family (including 16 month old grandson) we spent more downtime this trip than usual.
There was a complaint one evening about our dogs barking while we were out to dinner. But other than that it was a perfect trip.

Gorgeous patios and view of the river
My husband and two young kids absolutely loved this property. Very comfortable, clean, stylish and super close to the main street area. The patios overlooking the river was definitely the highlight for us- we enjoyed dining outside with the view, drinking a glass of wine in the evenings taking it all in and quiet coffee in the morning. Can't wait to stay again!
