Thanksgiving weekend in Salida
We really enjoyed the duplex. It was clean, new appliances, grill, great location, well-stocked! Everything was new and nice in a Victorian setting!
We had a ton of fun using the bicycles...that was a great perk!

Great spot! Clean, modern, and fun.
We loved being just a few minutes' walk from downtown Salida! This little place is just the right size for a cozy pad while you come and go from adventures, meals, and other hangouts around town.

Second time here!
This was my second stay here though with a different group of people. Such a great accommodation and location! Having the outside backyard is wonderful. I can't recommend this place highly enough!

Salida Oasis
This property is beautifully maintained, extremely clean and was accurately represented in the listing. I couldn’t have been more pleased with the comfort and location of this adorable little Railroad Cottage. I won’t stay anywhere else when I hopefully return next year.

Needs more attention
Giving this a 3 star because when we arrived it hadn't been cleaned at all. We wanted to enjoy our honeymoon but the first evening we spent disinfecting and doing laundry. One of the bikes had a flat tire. The ceiling fans were so dusty we couldn't turn them on until we dusted and there was no AC (which is stated in listing). The wifi was very spotty and the light in twin bedroom didn't work. The next afternoon the cleaner came into the bnb without knocking though we were in the middle of watching a movie. Our car was obviously parked in front and the tv was on but she still came right on in and looked around. I'm sure this isn't usually the case but we felt like the amount of miscommunication with the cleaner, the disruptions, and lack of making sure everything was ready proved to not be a professional vrbo experience. For the price I think the owners need to pay more attention. The owners did refund us the cleaning fee and tried to help us fix the bike but this was the worst experience with a vrbo we have had. I am a cleaner and I know the most important thing is to communicate and check with owners every time I'm supposed to clean to make sure guests have the experience they are paying for. Could be a great place but the standard needs to be raised to earn a 5 star review.

Fantastic Home
I stayed at Courtney's place for the weekend with my wife and infant son. It's a beautiful home that has been nicely renovated and is perfectly located in town. We could easily pop back home to grab anything needed for the little guy. We would happily stay here again.

My family of 4 enjoyed our stay very much. The house is comfortable, however there is so much to do in Salida we didn't spend too much time there. We were able to walk everywhere in town we wanted to go. Definitely go whitewater rafting at Independent Whitewater!

Colorado vacation
Beautiful cottage very clean and the location is great! My family enjoyed it very much!! I do have to agree though with a previous renter that the queen bed was uncomfortable. Sorry! Maybe a pillow top cushion for those of us that can’t sleep on a very firm mattress? Otherwise a perfect rental!

Simply put, staying here was wonderful in every way. The cottage itself was absolutely precious and the location can’t be beat. I only wish we could have stayed longer. Will definitely be back!

Salida sweet
Clean and great location. We had a fun little stay and wish it could have been a day or two more. My husband and daughter took the bikes out for a little ride around town and ran in to some issues, but one call to Jeff and Courtney and we had a solution. They were bummed that bikes were out of commission for the rest of our time, but appreciated the responsiveness. We loved the patio and fresh air! Cottage was within walking distance to everthing we were interested in doing....and even found some things we werent planning on. Hot springs aren't far and a fun little side trip, too. We will definitely check this out again if in Salida and would definitely recommend to friends.

Clean and close
The property was spotless. It was very close to town; walking distance to everything; and I was pretty blown away when I went to cook dinner and saw that they had everything I needed. Even sharp knives. I'm a foodie and I cook and so it was nice to be able to host friends outside without any fuss.

Awesome & cute house; great location
Our family of four (mom, dad, 15 & 13 yo teenage girls) loved this place. It was very comfortable, super clean and nicely decorated. It had everything we needed and was in a great location within a short walking distance (2 mins) to Safeway and (5 mins walking distance) to the downtown Salida area with cute shops, restaurants, walking paths, etc.
The only minor comment we have is that it would be nice to maybe have two more stools in the kitchen as we visited right after a snowstorm in September so the back sitting area was really nice and sunny but too cold while we were there to enjoy breakfast outside. Other than that, we loved this house!

Beautiful cottage, Convenient location to downtown.
Would definitely stay again. Beautiful cottage, quiet neighborhood, one block to start of the downtown district and two blocks away from the heart of the downtown area. Two old school cruiser bikes are an added bonus. The cottage is well equipped to stay home and cook if you prefer. The river walking area is three blocks away.

So CLEAN
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Salida. I have never stepped into a bathroom that clean before. Whoever does the cleaning is stickler for detail and it had me feeling very comfortable as soon as we got in. The location is super convenient to town but off the Main Street and quiet. We would stay here again!

Great little house for a family of 4 with little kids. Close to everything!
We had a great time at the Railroad Cottage in Salida. The location is extremely convenient to everything. The bike trail is around the corner and it is only a few blocks to Riverside Park, the river, and downtown Salida. There is a Safeway just steps away as well. The house is in a quiet neighborhood, it is well laid out for the size, with plenty of room for the 4 of us. The back deck is where we ate almost all of our meals when at the house, a few times with a view of deer and fawns just beyond the fence.
The house was clean and tidy when we arrived and Courtney and Jeff were very responsive to any questions we had. we would definitely stay again.

Wonderful, Charming Home in a Perfect Location
We loved everything about our time in Salida and especially staying at the Railroad Cottage. It was so convenient to the town and to Monarch Mountain and Jeff and Courtney could not have been nicer, easier to work with, and accommodating. This was our first time to Salida and skiing at Monarch but it will not be our last. We are already looking forward to our next time and we will definitely stay here again. Thank you again Jeff and Courtney for opening your beautiful home to us... we had such a great time!
