Our family thoroughly enjoyed our time at Bella Vista ... everything about the home and location were exactly what we needed to connect, relax, and recharge.
This beautiful property had everything we could have wanted or needed for our stay in Salida. We had our two kiddos and my in laws with us and enjoyed the stocked kitchen and cozy living areas whenever we were not out and about at Monarch or in the city.
We had a very comfortable stay and would love to come back!
There was plenty of room for five adults. The view of the mountains was beautiful. It was quiet and peaceful after a day of hiking and fishing. A wonderful time for our family to be together.
We are a group of 6 Moms who fly out to Salida to escape our real lives. (I work for Monarch, so we go up to the mountain). The house had the most incredible views of the mountains, everything you could possibly need, and plenty of space. It was quiet, quaint and pretty centrally located to everywhere you needed to go. The owners were quick to respond and available for anything we needed. You wont regret booking this home.
The property was clean and very spacious. The kitchen was extremely well equipped. The beds were very comfortable. They did not skimp on pillows or linens. There are thermostats in every room. The heaters are on the base boards so the floors are warm in the winter months. I cannot fine anything bad to say about the property. Don was very hospitable and a great host.
We had a great time in this beautiful home for our girl's getaway! The location is just a few minutes from downtown Salida but a world away in feeling. It was so quiet and peaceful at night and the views from the front porch were amazing. The house is spacious, with a very well stocked kitchen. I especially appreciated being able to use the garage to pull in my car at night. We all agreed that we would definitely come back for another stay in the future!

The location was wonderfully peaceful and scenic. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets and lightning shows from the patio and living room. Very comfortable for 6 adults.
Gave 4 stars on “accuracy of listing” because the online photos don’t do the place justice. I was worried the living room was a dark space (and almost didn’t consider this home) but it was bright and cheerful. Could use a nightlight and hairdryer in the master bath but overall very well stocked home.
Beautiful home in a great location - everything was perfect, they even had a Christmas tree! We (6 adults) had a wonderful time: home cooked meals in the well appointed kitchen, a short drive to fantastic skiing at Monarch, and cozy fires in the wood-burning fireplace. Our only (extremely minor) complaint is that the lighting in the kitchen is too bright and harsh. But truly, everything was perfect - beds were comfy and there was plenty of room for our family with 4 adult “children” to hang out, play games, watch TV, and enjoy the fire. The views from the front window and primary bedroom were incredible.
We loved our stay here! We have a family of 6 with 4 grown kiddos & there was plenty of room & space. The beds were comfy, the couch was large enough for everyone to hang out & the dining room table was perfect for games & eating. It was so clean & felt homey. One of the best things was the view. It was hard to leave!
We had such a fantastic weekend here! The house was beautiful, spacious, and clean, and the views were spectacular. Great birdwatching, too! It was close to town and good hikes, but one day we stayed in and around the house all day because it was so comfortable and relaxing. I would definitely recommend it and would stay here again then next time I'm in Salida!
Great house in a peaceful setting with amazing views.
We had a nice weekend stay here. The house is in perfect order with everything you need. It’s a quick trip down to town, but we enjoyed the retreat up the hill for the quiet evenings.
Place was everything it said it was and more. Hosts were great and place was clean and well stocked with everything we needed! Will definitely be back and recommend the place to friends and family.
We stayed on a hot June weekend. Tons of space in the house with beds and bathrooms. No air conditioning so evening temps in the house were very warm, but cooled off overnight.Probably the most well stocked kitchen we have ever seen at VRBO home.
