About this house rental
Escape to complete privacy in the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains on a secluded 37-acre property at the base of Hunts Peak, located in the exclusive Pine Ridge Ranch community just 25 minutes from downtown Salida, Colorado.
With the nearest neighbor over half a mile away, you’ll experience true Colorado serenity—breathtaking sunrises over the Arkansas Valley, snow-capped peaks to the southwest, and a lush wooded creek below.
Whether you’re planning a rafting trip on the Arkansas River, trail shredding on your mountain bike, a hiking adventure, a ski getaway, or simply a peaceful escape, The Hideaway is the perfect Colorado basecamp.
The Hideaway occupies the entire upper level of a beautifully remodeled home, offering complete privacy during your stay. The lower level is occupied by a long-term tenant, but there are no shared spaces.

Guests can explore private hiking trails and discover fascinating remnants of the historic town of Calcite, Colorado.
On the property you’ll find the foundations of the original schoolhouse, clubhouse, and homes, along with early-20th-century quarries where calcite was mined for the steel industry in Pueblo.

10 / 10Outstanding·May 2026
What an amazing property! Beautiful and spacious with outstanding mountain views. The property even has its own ruins from a hundred year old ghost town. There is a national forest trailhead just up the road for hiking or biking. The property would be a great base camp for whatever your adventure plans. Only wish we could have stayed longer.
10 / 10Outstanding·Mar 2026
We had an incredible stay here with our family of four, along with a couple of friends who joined us. The home was spotless—truly felt like a 5-star hotel, but with the comfort and space of a private house. The views were absolutely stunning, and it’s easy to see why this area is known for its consistently beautiful weather—it made the whole experience even better.One of the highlights was how much there was to explore right from the property. Our kids loved adventuring in the huge open quarry up the road, hiking the private road to the secluded box canyon, and exploring the historic ghost town of Calcite on the property—such unique experiences.Inside, the home was just as thoughtfully set up. There were plenty of toys and games that kept our kids happily entertained, and the kitchen had everything we needed to comfortably prepare meals during our stay.We also took a trip into Salida and spent time at the riverside park, which was a great outing and an easy complement to all the exploring back at the house.If you’re looking for a peaceful, beautiful place with plenty of outdoor adventure, this is it. We’d absolutely stay here again.

We rented for a small, family-only wedding. It was absolutely beautiful. The place was clean, had all the accommodations we could ask for, including a full, well-supplied kitchen and comfortable beds. The views were outstanding. It was nice to just hang out on the deck and inside in the family room. Big dining room table made our dining with the large group great. They even have a fenced in area for dogs! There's a nice hiking path on the property that takes you to an even more spectacular view. It's also close to other activities.

We had an amazing experience staying here. The views from the house and the deck were absolutely stunning. Everything was so cozy, the beds were really comfortable and there was plenty of space for hanging out and relaxing. The decorations are very thoughtful and inviting and there was no lack anywhere, everything we needed for function and fun were provided for from movies and games to every kitchen appliance and tool. Our kids are already asking when we can return! Our host was available to answer our questions, told us about the local area and things to do nearby and made us feel very welcome and appreciated.
