Rented back in March with no problem and the the Covid happened. We were kept informed and the owner did an awesome job of having everything prepared for us.
We had a group of ten family members skiing at monarch. The home was lovely and Roomy with lots of bed options. The owner was very available
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here in Salida. The house was perfect for our party of 11. The large room in the bottom floor fit the 5 children, ages 8 through 14. Then there were two bedrooms on the main floor and one master suite on the top floor for the 3 adult couples. As mentioned in other reviews, the counters are all higher than normal both in the kitchen and bathrooms. There are some step stool provided. Also, the mattresses are adequate in the bedrooms but we had to add padding from some bed rolls in the closet to assist the kids on the fold out beds. All in all, the house was clean and pleasant. Just outside of town and on a hill, the views were beautiful. The kids (and adults) really enjoyed sledding and scouting out mule deer on the hills right behind the house.
House was wonderful for our family vacation. They had snow, which allowed my grandchildren to sled down hills on property for several days. Close to conveniences, yet secluded enough. Close to monarch skiing. Awesome place!
We were looking for a place for 13 of us to stay comfortably and definitely found it here in Salida. So appreciated the organization of the kitchen, they had everything you would want in a kitchen from a crock pot to a coffee pot. Our kids took over the basement and so enjoyed having their own space. We loved the deck views of the mountains. Could not believe how close to town was but you felt like you were out in the country. Will definitely be going back. We all went separate ways from skiing, snowmobiling, shopping, wine tasting and all got to meet back up in the house at night for games and dinner together. Parking was great to be able to back up and enjoy the garage access also. Had plenty of space for the 3 families to have our own room and not feel on top of everyone. Spoke with the owner and she was pleasant to answer any of our questions and concerns.
See the review from March 2017 - oddly we shared the same experience with that renter with the identical bogus claims of damage, vomit, & carpet stains up to and including the broken towel rack bit. You would think someone could come up with an original ‘story’. Carla claims she has photos and doesn’t know how to access them to send them to me. If she is honest then she has a housekeeper who is not. Someone pocketed an extra $300 today. We did not leave the house in any sort of disarray or offensive condition. Everything was tidy, beds stripped and dishwasher ran. There was a lot of laundry - what would housekeeping expect in a rental that claims to sleep 14? There were two queen beds, a Murphy bed and a sofa sleeper and a couple oversized chairs, yes there’s bedding to wash and yes, people showered. Not quite sure what is going on, we used to rent out our own property on VRBO and would never leave a mess! Carla said she will try to send me pictures, I’m still waiting for her to forward the email evidence. I will be contacting VRBO tomorrow, having listed my own property thru them in the past I know exactly how this works and will be getting to the bottom of it.
The property is well maintained, spacious, and inviting. Close to town and reasonable proximity (about 30 minutes) to Monarch Mountain. We enjoyed our stay here. It is a great value, but most importantly, is well furnished and comfortable, with great views of the mountains. Carla, the owner, was very nice to deal with and she is genuinely concerned that everything is in order. Highly recommend!
The house was great, even better that we had hoped. There were three families in our group and we were a little worried about the space/layout. Upon arrival, everything was clean and in order. All appliances worked well. The kitchen is large enough to cook meals for 12 people and it was outfitted with all of the utensils, bakeware/cookware we needed. The dining table is huge and we were able to fit all three families around it for meals. All of the beds were comfortable and there is an abundance of blankets. The TV has been updated since the photos, so there is a smart TV in the main living area. The location is also good. There are hiking trails out the back door. Downtown Salida is close and Monarch ski resort was about a 30 min drive on the busiest ski day of the year. We definitely recommend this house and will rent it again when we go back to Salida. The owners were very helpful. They provided all of the information and instructions up front so we had everything we needed to get in, have a great trip and check out easily.
Spacious home that is very well set up to accommodate any family situation. We were very pleased that anything we could think we might needs was provided, a big plus when we had Thanksgiving feast to prepare. Home was inviting, clean, organized and very comfortable. The views are spectacular with direct easy access to town. We will be back.
This house is perfect for large family groups, with expansive sleeping accommodations and lots of seating for relaxing inside or out. It has a well equipped kitchen with everything needed for any kind of food prep, along with a nice big dining table for big family meals. It was exactly what our group of 9 adults and 5 kids needed! Just up the hill is access to awesome mountain biking and hiking trails, and just down the hill is quick access to all that the town of Salida has to offer....great restaurants, easy access to food stores, unique shops and high end bike shops. Carla was an outstanding host/owner, checking in regularly to see that we had everything we needed. We particularly appreciated use of the garage to store all our groups' bikes at night. One highlight of each day was sitting out on the deck watching the sun set over the Collegiate Peaks. No other way to describe it than simply majestic. We will be back for sure!
