Buena Vista, Colorado
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!

Great place to stay. Activities for all ages. We had a great Christmas getaway with our family!
What a wonderful property! We stayed here for 3 days for a getaway girls trip. This house more than exceeded our expectations. Communication from the hosts was quick and helpful. They have really thought of everything with this house.
This house was a little slice of paradise. Excellent location, close to everything. Loved having coffee on the deck in the morning listening to the creek. The awning was a life saver since it was quite hot while we were there. The stars from the deck were amazing as well. The hot tub was super clean. The house was equipped with everything we needed (minus a blender) . Super quiet neighborhood, nestled in the trees. Plenty of parking, loved playing ping pong and pool before evening festivities! Some of us even took a dip in the creek! Wish we had more time to just chill at the house. Our only feedback, the master bedroom mattress was so firm we had to run to Salida to buy a mattress topper, otherwise it was brutal on my body. After that, all good
This was a great home for our 4 generations to stay in while in Buena Vista for a wedding. It was clean amd well kept and the kitchen was wonderfully stocked making it easy to cook for all of us. It was great having so many different levels with bedrooms on each to accomadate our families needs. The back yard was a nice place to relax and let the kids play as well as the game room. We enjoyed our time there immensely.
This house was perfect for our family and our best friends and their family!!! Plenty of space for everyone, kids loved the game room and so close to town, hiking, rafting, etc…I would recommend to anyone and will stay here next time in BV;)
Our extended family of 14 stayed at this beautiful home for a week. The location is ideal for anyone who enjoys, fishing, hiking, water spirts, and spending time relaxing. Our ages ranged from 50’s to young children. Plenty of fans for weather changes, quality furniture, multiple bathrooms, and plenty of room to relax and hang out. Enjoyed the creek and game room. Hot tub worked wonderfully. Only thing I would change would be the beds. They were very firm but we prefer memory foam. Joanne was very attentive when I reached out and quick to respond and go out of her way to make us comfortable. Loved the vibe in the town and close to so many activities! Thank you so much for a location that provided amazing memories for 3 generation family! Best trip so far!
The property was perfect for a weekend getaway with friends. The house was excellent and couldn’t ask for a better location.
Lovely house, close to Main Street. Had a great time using the game room and hot tub. Would stay again!
The house was clean and easy to find. We really enjoyed the amenities including the hot tub and a fun game room with ping pong, darts, and Foosball. The host was very responsive. We had a delightful stay in Buena Vista.
Great property! Easy walk to restaurants and trails along the river. Loved the creek in the backyard and the hot tub. Hope to visit again in the summer! Owners were super responsive and helpful.

I stayed at this lovely house with a group of 7 girls for a bachelorette party and it was exactly what we needed! Plenty of space for everyone, very clean, and we enjoyed the views and hot tub.

We got to house for a family get away. We had three family’s come together. The house was perfect had room for everyone. Clean super clean. Location was perfect. Beautiful location. Stuff for kids and adults to keep us busy all weekend!!!! MUST STAY AGAIN LOCATION!!!!
This house was perfect for our family getaway. The location of this house was perfect, it was close enough to BV that we were able to pop in to the City Market and get the essentials. The hot tub was amazing particularly in the early mornings as the sun was rising. The house was well equipped and we were able to prepare some fabulous breakfasts in the spacious kitchen. And there were so many rooms and beds to accommodate our large party. I would highly recommend this property, and we will most definitely be back.
Owner very prompt with questions. Super clean and very functional. Great for a large group we were there for a wedding so 3 bathrooms helped.Trail across road for hiking, greeted every morning and evening by deer. 2 minute drive to downtown. Thanks for sharing your home with us.
Quiet location Kitchen well stocked
We stayed here for our 10 year anniversary and had an awesome time. The house had plenty of room and all the things you could think of using. We really enjoyed the sound of the creek and sitting on the deck. Very close to town and plenty of parking space.
My grandson was getting married at the surf hotel. We had families joining us from Va. Texas and Florida. everything was so perfect and amazing. where we rented you could walk to everything and hike walk along the river we just enjoyed the whole experience!
Great place we all had a blast
Very nice house with ample sleeping arrangements for our group 10 adults and two kids and an infant. Close to many attractions in Buena Vista and Salida. Owners were great to communicate with and addressed any concerns we had. Highly recommend.
We throughly enjoyed our time at the house! The owners were very helpful with an internet issue and was fixed quickly. The house was beautiful and so was the property. The kitchen was fully stocked with all small appliances. There were plenty of blankets, pillows and towels. Couldn’t have booked a better place.
We had a wonderful time at the River House. The River House is everything that we expected and more. The location is wonderful, a short walk to Main Street. The house is perfectly accommodated. We hope to return in the future.
We wanted a home for our family to stay during our sons wedding events in Buena Vista. We could not have found a more perfect spot for us all to get away and relax Before heading to various wedding events! Perfect!
