This spacious cabin on Cottonwood Creek combines the best of both worlds. Enjoy a feeling of blissful seclusion whilst being just a half mile from the beautiful parks, restaurants and dining options of Main Street. Sit on the deck & relax to the sound of the rushing stream below, weaving it's path to the Arkansas River. This peaceful, secluded 2 acre property with 300 ft river access provides a quiet, comfortable setting for those looking for a pristine Colorado mountain vacation experience.

Our 3000+ ft sq ft, 5 BR / 2.5 BA creek side home is ready to welcome the entire family, weary travelers, wandering explorers, or romantics-at-heart! Sleeping up to 14 people, this cabin is the perfect retreat for families or small groups to reunite and share in the beauty of this idyllic location. The well equipped kitchen allows meals to be easily and quickly prepared, whilst the family plays a game at the dining room table or watches the Smart TV (Spectrum) in the living room. A second large flat screen TV in the upper level living area (w/ bedroom and full ensuite bathroom) allows those with different preferences to tune into their favorite shows via Chromecast. Both the walkout level and main level have master bedrooms and bathrooms, ideal for a family vacation of a lifetime. The upstairs bedroom has a twin log bunk bed and sofa sleeper and offers an additional living area complete with a newly renovated full bathroom with walk in shower. The cabin is fully equipped for comfort with quality linens, dishes, silverware, pots & pans and outdoor gas grill, along with typical kitchen appliances including microwave, stove and oven, dishwasher and coffee maker.

Outdoors you can enjoy the hot tub, or spend hours playing with friends and family alike in the Games Room with table tennis, foosball, pool and a darts board - may the games begin!

Although located on the river in a secluded location, our cabin is just a 5 minute walk to the heart of South Main - an acclaimed New Urbanist neighborhood on the river park in downtown Buena Vista. Just minutes from the front door you can be walking by the Arkansas river, riding a cruiser bike around downtown BV, fly fishing, rock climbing, rafting, whitewater kayaking, mountain biking or enjoying a locally brewed craft beer at Eddyline Restaurant and Brewery. A few steps away are artful galleries and hip clothing boutiques. A few blocks further you will find unique shops and a make-your-own art studio, along with drinking and dining experiences, in historic BV. These stores include one of the largest retailers of whitewater kayaking gear in the world, a small (but also renowned!) sushi restaurant, a coffee roaster and a distillery. If you are into hiking, backcountry skiing or snowshoeing, trail heads to many of Colorado's most majestic 14'ers are just a few minute’s drive away.

There are a multitude of activities to enjoy in the area: fish privately right out the back door, hike the Continental Divide Trail or Colorado Trail, summit a 14er, explore old mining towns or uncover gemstones via ATV and Jeep trails in the Jeep Capitol of the World, white-water raft or kayak the world-renowned Arkansas River, take a horseback ride through the woods, or soak in the nearby hot springs, and more!

    Excellent location, good sleeping arrangements and a clean home. The ONLY nitpick we had was the lack of soap/shampoo in the showers. Having said that, we would absolutely stay there again.

    This gem was perfect for us. We are a group of seven, 69 and 70 year-old women that all went to Palmer High together. We had so much fun just sitting out on the back deck and flapping our jaws and eating, that we didn’t even get in the hot tub! BTW, the awning on the back deck is awesome!!!

    Beautiful location away from hustle and bustle but within walking distance to shops/restaurants. Great kitichen and cooking implements with a dining table big enough for our family of 9. We all loved the game room and hot tub. Overall, a wonderful space for a multi-generational family gathering.

    We loved this house in Buena Vista. The three families could spread in different rooms. The kitchen was large and spacious.The downtown area was walkable and we could walk to coffee shops.The best part was the deck space. So wonderful to hang out there.

    Amazing location, fully stocked, clean, with access to Cottonwood Creek. Great location for our 50th Anniversary Vow Renewal. Only suggestions would be new mattresses(master was fine) and pool table is in pretty bad shape. Really enjoyed the hot tub. The one complaint that I have is being overcharged (250) for 2 people who didn't stay there. (only came for 2 meals and vow renewal)

    We booked the property for 7 nights for a family vacation. There were sufficient bedrooms and bathrooms for our party of 8. We truly enjoyed the large deck on which we could enjoy the soothing sound of the creek at the back of the property. The kitchen was well equipped. We loved the game room as we spent some evenings playing ping pong. This was the only large property that had a hot tub, which we enjoyed after a day of rafting. The complaints are that the dryer is very slow (perhaps a partially plugged vent) and there was only one towel for each guest. We would recommend the property but suggest the guest bring towels. We did not appreciate the host expectation that we do so much housekeeping upon departure after we paid a hefty cleaning and host fee at booking.

    The house was exceptional! The kitchen was well-supplied, dishwasher was quiet, comfy living spaces, great bedrooms, and we could relax outside in our choice of spaces, either near the river or near the house. Our group wants to book for even longer next year!

    This property was exactly as advertised and was ideal for our family. It was very clean and well equipped with every possible necessity. The hosts are easily reached for any questions or concerns and check-in/check-out is seamless. Most all of the outdoor areas offered a sense of privacy for family members to enjoy. The location of the property worked great for us as we had family in multiple locations throughout town. We were in walking distance to Main Street, the local restaurants, other local lodging, as well as the Arkansas River, and access to local hiking trails. The property is situated on Cottonwood Creek where you can relax and enjoy the peaceful sounds of the creek, watch the deer other wildlife, and even catch a glimpse of trout. There is a lovely fire pit that is great for evening gatherings spent sharing stories of the day while enjoying a glass of wine. The property also offers a very nice outdoor jacuzzi that is welcoming after a long day of hiking, fishing, rafting, or any of the abundant outdoor activities available in this part of Colorado! There is also a detached area that houses a pool table and other games. I would recommend this property and will definitely stay here again when visiting Buena Vista!

    There were 12 of my family members staying for my son’s wedding. The house was perfect for 6 couples. Many different spaces for everyone. The kitchen had every amenity you can think of along with extra spices and containers for storage of leftovers. The yard was so relaxing with the creek and hot tub. The garage was used a ton with all the games to play. The guys saw fish in the creek. Would definitely recommend! The manager was so prompt when we needed something once and fast communication.

    We Truly enjoyed our stay in Buena Vista. This house was the perfect accommodation for our first annual family reunion. We enjoyed the game room and hot tub and even took a few cold plunges in the river (it was flowing really nice in early August). We enjoyed the surrounding towns, hikes, and rafting adventures. 10/10!
