Grand place. All nine of us could sit around the giant kitchen table for meals and games.
8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2025
Although there was some misrepresentation about the location of the home in relation to Salida, it was a beautiful place to stay. The kitchen was well stocked with all things needed to cook. The host was very communicative and thorough with instructions regarding check-in and checkout. Other guests of ours plan to rent this home again in the fall for a mountain biking trip. Four stars only due to misleading location and our plan for dinners/food/biking needing to change

Stayed here as a mini family Reunion/wedding celebration. Everyone had a great time and enjoyed the beautiful property!

Due to the WiFi being spotty we would suggest you take along a few movies of your likings. Especially if you have children. We had arrived early and the cleaning crew made contact with us and were very kind. We did have issues with the lock box, we called and spoke to someone and we worked it out. Over all we really enjoyed this location and the beautiful house and cottage. We would recommend this location for your family needs.
