Fishing trip
We were in Salida to fish the Arkansas. Unfortunately for us, the river flow had been increased substantially a couple of days earlier, making wading almost impossible. But we adapted and had a good time fishing. The house was perfect for us to bed down at night.

Sweet Spot
We only stayed a few nights while we skied at Monarch, but the home was nice and well located. The only issue we had was the coffee maker didn't work well. Other than that, everything was great.

Quaint Getaway
Very clean, great location near F street but in a quiet neighborhood. It's a old home, very nicely renovated, but is drafty. We were glad for the space heaters provided. The listing says it sleeps 8, but we only counted room for 7 plus a crib. Beautiful outdoor living space in the back.

Such a nice relaxing home!
We had a great time at the Sweet Spot. The house was well equipped with everything we needed, and it was very quiet and comfortable. It’s within quick walking distance to the river and all the cute downtown shops and restaurants.

Nice house close to everything
The house was as described. It is in a great location that allows you to walk anywhere downtown. It was cold so we did not use anything outside but that area looked like it would be great in the Spring. We had no problems. We would stay here again. My only suggestion which did not change the enjoyment of our stay is to move the check out to 11am. 10am is very early for any hotel or house.

Due to a frozen pipe we were immediately informed about 2 substitute locations. Both looked great and the one we chose was fantastic. Our Pinon rep was super helpful and so nice to work with. We would book through them again for sure!

SWEET SPOT IS A DELIGHT! THE INDOOR AND OUTDOOR SPACES ARE PERFECT-- COMFORTABLE AND SATISFYINGLY BEAUTIFUL. THE KITCHEN IS VERY WELL STOCKED, INCLUDING OLIVE OIL AND SALT. THE BEDROOMS HAVE GREAT BEDS, ENOUGH DRAWER/HOOK SPACE, AND EXCELLENT PILLOWS AND BEDDING. THE SHOWER IS A DREAM. I CAME WITH TWO FRIENDS FOR A WRITER'S RETREAT AND WE COULDN'T HAVE BEEN HAPPIER WITH OUR TEMPORARY HOME.

We had an amazing family vacation in Salida! Would not have been possible with such a wonderful and convenient house to stay in. Look out windows and see majestic mountains, walk to great playgrounds, grocery stores, restaurants, or river walk. Or stay in and be cozy. Thank you!

Great Place for the Price
Stayed at this property with my wife, our dog and some friends. We had a great time and enjoyed the place. It is very close to downtown and walking distance to restaurants. Also, easy access to the highway and about 25-30 mins from Monarch. The price was right and beat staying in a hotel.

This is a perfect location for doing all things in Salida. Easy walking access to downtown food and shopping. The house is older but the up keep is great. Plenty of room to spread out after a long day skiing. House is well stocked. The heating can be finicky but worked.

Very great place to stay. Will definitely try and book again. Walking distance to everything downtown Salida. Biking right out the front door to S-Mountain trail system and short drive to others. Really enjoyed the stay here with the family and being able to bring our dogs was a bonus too. Thanks for making it such an easy process. This is how they all should be.

Cute home, convenient location
The property was a lovely, historic home with nice amenities. Location is great, home was comfortable and clean. The backyard is very nicely manicured with several seating areas. The only downside is that the house had a smell to it similar to stale cigarette smoke - not intense but there. Would definitely stay again.

Excellent Home
We really enjoyed our time at the property! The house has a lot of character and is just as cute as the pictures make it look. The location is great to walk to dinner and drinks! The backyard was perfect to enjoy the warm weather with everyone. The beds were comfortable and having the day bed in a room next to the living room instead of being in a common area was a great addition. The day bed was smaller than expected but having the privacy was very nice. It was great to find a dog friendly Vrbo! Would definitely stay again.

Came to Salida for quick weekend ski/snowboarding
Stayed Fri-Sun. Didn’t get to enjoy much of Salida, came for a quick weekend to Monarch Mt. “The Sweet Spot” house was perfect. Location to to town and Mt. we are out both nights. Fabulous Mexican restaurant . Dogs loved the fenced in Yard( although we did pick up more poo than was ares., some people need to follow rules). No worries we were glad to leave the house fabulous for the next renters. Thank you to Terry for her quick response to getting furnace fixed immediately. She was great to work with. The house was stocked with more than enough quilts extra heaters and everything that it stated on reservation post. We would definitely stay again and to actually visit the town in the summer and enjoy the surroundings. My adult son gives it 5 stars for having his go to favorite DVD and streaming movie channels

I am so glad you had a great getaway. We apologize for the extra dog poo. Seems that with the snow melting more seems to appear. We certainly appreciate the extra pick up job you did. Please come visit in the summer, it is a magical place!
