The Rapid Ranch is a clean, well appointed, property that is close to downtown BV and the newer South Main Street area. Our only wish was to have a few blankets for hanging out and watching TV at night.

Everything was so clean and wonderful. My friend and I came on a girls trip without our kids for the weekend… so the hot tub, easy walking path across the street, and close distance to everything was really nice for a short stay! Would definitely come back!

Buena Vista Basecamp

This was our second time staying here, most likely won't be our last. The location of this home is perfect for exploring Buena Vista and surrounding areas. We love that pets are allowed. The beds are insanely comfortable and after a long day at the hot springs a comfy bed is much appreciated. We are definitely going to stay here again.

Great for medium sized groups and pet friendly

Property has 3 queen beds in the bedrooms and a large sectional couch. Good sized backyard for your dog and one of the best views in Buena Vista. It's right off the highway, but you could barely hear traffic unless you have the windows open.Property is clean and well stocked with a breeze of a check in process and friendly owners.

A great visit to Mt Princeton area

The location was perfect, just out of town but close enough for a beautiful walking path and an ease to walk or drive into town. The property is kept up nicely, instructions for recycle and garbage along with water and furnace were clearly marked and all appliances worked nicely. The house was very clean and tidy and very very welcoming. Hot tub was a lovely addition to our stay and the neighborhood is quiet and well kept. The beds were comfy and we enjoyed the game room. The kitchen gadgets were helpful, coffee grinder and French press being our favorites as we enjoyed the local Brown Dog coffee roasters close by.

Just right!

We had a great experience staying at The Rapid Ranch! Easy location in town with plenty of parking. House had all the supplies we needed. Hot tub was excellent. Had plenty of room for all of us plus our dogs. It is right off the main highway so traffic noise is a tad loud. Other than that, a great place to stay!

Great stay in Buena Vista

We had two fantastic nights in The Rapid Ranch House after a week of camping up at Twin Lakes. The house was great! Everything was clean and well maintained. Each teenager had their own room, which was huge plus. We enjoyed the hot tub, pool table and pingpong. Highly recommend this house.
