Comfort by the river & short walk to downtown.
You`ll love my place! The location is the best! Walk to the great restaurants, galleries, parks, and the river. It is quiet with a large, private, fenced backyard. It is newly renovated, maintaining old world charm. Enjoy comfort and beauty! Now EV car charging across the street!

Whole private home with large fenced backyard with BBQ gas grill. Riverside Park with a climbing wall and play ground for kids is one block away. The downtown with galleries, nightlife, and restaurants is 3 blocks away.
Please let me know if you need anything regarding the house or the town. I would like you to have the most comfortable stay. Dvora
Our neighborhood is quiet and safe. It is a block from the river with its park and hiking trails. Also it is only a few blocks to downtown.
It is easy to walk or bike everywhere. The river is one block away and downtown is only 3 blocks away. No need to use your car in town. 2 bikes are available for your use. Plenty of street parking.
Salida has a wonderful, local hot springs aquatic center, art galleries, a good assortment of restaurants, hiking and biking trails, a performance center, Monarch Ski Area 30 minutes away, a golf course, and more hots springs in the area. Day trips include the Great Sand Dunes, old mining towns, ranches, white water rafting, and more. No pets or smoking so that this remains an allergy free home please. Co-mingled recycle bin ) inside by the back door is supplied (NO PLASTIC BAGS please). Before check out please put in and start one wash of linens, take out the garbage and recycling to the bins in the alley, and start the dishwasher. I am trying to keep costs low so that you pay less. Thank you, Dvora

Such a nice, clean place to stay. Location is excellent, communication with the owner is good. A great place to land after a 28 day road trip.We will be back!Thank you!
I literally love this cottage by the river! Salida is a home away from home and this little bungalow has become a favorite! It's always my first choice!!!!
This property located within easy walking distance to downtown and the river walk. We had everything we needed to cook many meals. Great layout in the home and the art on the walls is like sleeping in a gallery.
Kids enjoyed playing at the Riverside Park playground before and after meals. Quick and easy access to Monarch. We will be back next year for more fun and relaxation. Location and price of this place are unbeatable. Host is quick to respond to questions.
My wife and I took a delayed honeymoon visit to Salida and stayed in this great little place! It was close to everything which made for a nice walk everyday to go to town and the river park. We loved our visit and look forward to staying here again in the future!
We had a great stay at this small cottage near downtown Salida. Walking distance to everywhere. Across the street from the police station and an EV charging station, so it's very safe, secure and quiet. The unit was very comfortable and had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. Would definitely book again.
Our family of four stayed here in early January for a ski trip to Monarch. The small house is as advertised, and worked well for us. It is clean, thoughtfully outfitted, and comfortable. Parking is easy, and it was nice to be able to walk to the downtown businesses and to a small park and playground by the river. The owner was friendly and helpful.
Had a wonderful time in Salida. The place was spacious, clean, and inviting. The location is walkable to most places around the downtown area. Loved watching the surfers at the park, getting milkshakes at the soda fountain, enjoyed browsing the art galleries, and enjoyed eating at several places downtown. Would book this place again in a heartbeat.
Dvora’s place was perfect for my husband and I. It’s a great old charming home with a nice backyard with a view of Tenderfoot Mtn. The location is a couple of blocks from shops and restaurants yet is on a very quiet street. Check in/out was easy. Dvora responded quickly to messages. We will be back! Thank you!
We loved our stay in Salida. I don’t think we could have asked for a better location so close to the river and great restaurants and shops. The house was charming, filled with a lot of character and very comfortable. We didn’t do a lot of cooking but the kitchen seemed well stocked. We will definitely be back!
This place is in the absolute best location for a family to enjoy Salida. This home had plenty of room for a family of four, and included all that we needed for our stay. We brought a twin inflatable bed for the entry room so our teenagers had their own space. The backyard provided us with the perfect view to enjoy the fireworks from S mountain. We certainly want to return in the future.
This property was perfect for a family Christmas vacation spot. We were within walking distance of downtown Salida and only a 25-minute drive to Monarch Mountain. The place was a perfect size for a family of 4. It had all the essentials for cooking in, playing games-they provided so many fun and interesting games our entire family could play. It was very clean, warm, and cozy and the owners were extremely responsive. We will be back here in the future!
No AC but opened windows and cooled off nicely. Comfortable bed.
Weird thing though. The owner accused us of bringing a dog which we would never. We think a couple of hairs may have travelled in on a blanket we brought. So I guess, be sure you dont bring anything like that because they are sticklers!
The property is adorable. It felt like staying in a little art museum. The artwork is extraordinary. The property is well adorned with all of the necessary essentials plus. The location can't be beat. It is on a quiet street one block from the river and about three blocks from downtown. A plethora of shopping and dining within close walking distance. The grocery store was also close. We had a vehicle but never had to drive in town since everything was so close. We did drive to Monarch to ski, which was a short drive. There was a large back yard with bikes available. The washer and dryer, along with detergent, was very useful. The fireplace in the front room made everything cozy and warm. There are no cons to this property at all. A very strong 10 out of 10.
The place was comfortable for me and my 2 adult sons. We brought an air bed for the third sleeping spot. It was very comfortable and we had plenty of room for ski clothes and boots. The laundry facilities were excellent. The heater was perfect for drying out wet gloves. The location is across from the cop shop and there was lots of traffic going to and fro. We felt safe. We walked to the river and I wish I had brought my fishing pole as I saw trout everywhere. The first night our parking spot was full of snow but it melted quickly. No complaints. Davora was quick to respond to a couple of questions.
Very nice rental in a great location. Everything was well stocked and as a Colorado Trail through hiker, I appreciated the bathtub and the laundry facilities. Would definitely stay here again.
