Family-friendly vacation rentals in Salida

Our Humble Abode accommodated us perfectly for our stay. It was a private spot to relax and close to The Deer Valley Ranch where we attend d a wedding!

Aunt Bea’s was the perfect spot for us on our cross state tour! It truly is a hidden gem, but close enough to walk downtown. We appreciated the wood work in the space! And enjoyed looking through past photos to see the seasonal art. Thank you for a great stay!

This place is everything it's described as. Amazing river access with beautiful decks and grills for plenty of outdoor enjoyment. The deck by the river is beautiful with some steps to access the river. The kitchen has everything you need to enjoy your stay and there is plenty of sleeping space. We would certainly return for another visit.

Our cabin was beautiful! Our private pool was EPIC. Very clean, natural, and remained at the perfect temperature the entire time. My fiance and I enjoyed the privacy, beautiful scenery, the sound of the river, etc. We even utilized the kitchen and made stuffed mushrooms for dinner! The pellet stove created a calm ambience at night time. We felt the stress melt away...Thankyou 🩷

We had an incredible time. We were visiting for a wedding and the house accommodated not only our elderly father who has to use a walker or wheelchair, but also our daughter who is eight years old. The house was well stocked and well taken care of. The hot tub alone is phenomenal with the fireplace also at the top of the house. It was quite a remarkable place to stay. We hope to stay there again soon. One of the best Airbnbs we've ever stayed at.

Excellent location, property, amenities, and proximity to the ski resort (Monarch Mountain). The hot tub was excellent, and the mattresses and bedding were excellent!

The property is very nice. The cabins are fairly close together, but they have nice privacy walls with firewood and patio walls. We had zero cell reception (t-mobile) and the wifi was really only good for texts/email, but this was all known ahead of time. The Murphy bed worked well with kids and they enjoyed running around to the playgrounds and creek. We will definitely consider coming back in the summer....the outdoor seating and grill looked fun. Super convenient location to Monarch mountain.

We enjoyed our stay. Will come back again I’m typically not a big reviewer however, I felt that this place needs to be recognized for the quality of communication and the cleanliness of the cabin.

The Alpaca Airbnb is exactly as described. We had our dogs with us which is always special to share experiences with them. The property is beautiful and we walked around multiple times a day to let the dogs run and play. We also saw the elk herd everyday during our stay. Once, they were even on the property versus across the street. The animals are wonderful and so friendly. We were able to feed them and hang out with them which was such a unique experience. The home is quite cozy and well stocked. There were plenty of supplies and ways to clean up after yourself which is always nice. I wish we had more time to read some of the books in the massive book collection. There were plenty of games to play as well. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our time and would love to go back in the warmer months.

First, take a photo of the key code and text to your group. I did not and left my phone in the house. So, yes, I locked us out. Everything was on my phone. My friend sent a message through AirBnB to Wendy explaining what happened. She called her right away and got us back in the house. Phew! The house is a 10-minute walk to downtown Salida, which is so cute. Full of shops, places to each, art galleries, stores for kids, an arcade, etc. One can walk to the grocery too. The house had everything we needed. It is nicely maintained, quiet and comfortable. Our only issue was the one bathroom. We managed with it. If you have a teen who takes forever anytime they in the bathroom, this could be a problem. Plenty of hot water for several showers in a row and lots of towels. Really like having the washer/dryer access even a drying rack. I would stay here again!

Good place to stay. Walking distance to downtown. It’s a pretty easy drive Monarch (about 43 min depending on traffic & how you drive) for skiing too.

This place was absolutely perfect for a peaceful bachelorette getaway!! It may be far in the mountains but well worth every second. The while drive had breathtaking views, then when you get to the house it’s a beautiful open window to appreciate all the beauty. With plenty for beds for me and my girls to feel so cozy. Definitely want to come back here with more family!

a wonderful place to stay! the home was cozy and well appointed. every kitchen gadget you could need. very pet friendly yard.

Absolutely lovely accommodations with comfort and convenience in mind. It is on the busiest street, but we did not find it disruptive except when a big truck rumbled by. Beds are comfy, kitchen well-appointed, and you truly can walk to everywhere in town.

We absolutely loved our stay at Millie‘s Place. The neighborhood is charming, quiet beyond belief, and the view of snow capped mountains all around stunning. The house itself makes you feel right at home with rooms that have perfect proportions, large enough to be able to spread out but small enough to be cozy. We very much hope to be able to come back to Buena Vista and if we do we’d love to stay at Millie’s Place again.

Great place to stay wihile enjoying Salida and the surrounding trails. if you're a mountain biker or hiker that doesn't want to drive to trails, this is really a great spot. Awesome accessibility to the great restaurants and breweries in town as well.

Quiet, cozy convenient space to call home for a short visit. Yes i would stay again. Everything you need for 1 person or a couple. Nice front porch to relax and enjoy the snow capped presidential range. Wonderful hosts always available if you need them.

It was a wonderful home! We enjoyed the stay alot! It is definitely as described, a cozy rest stop, but not really a place to spend all day.

The technology and the Wi-Fi service need to be upgraded to today standards with so many live programs being shown on Netflix and prime. It’s important that the devices that are being used are to today standards. You had various nights we couldn’t watch anything because either the cable was not upgraded to various channels or the devices would not stream live events because it said on the screen, the device was too old. My suggestion is to get an Apple TV download the most used apps, things like HBO Netflix, Amazon prime and allow people to login to enjoy their stay in the evening. My other advice would be to get a hot tub. It would be great to have after skiing.

This is a lovely place to stay in BV. We loved the carefully executed decor and enjoyed the personal story of the owners. The location was great for walking in that part of town and it was fun walking the trail by the river. Overall, we thought it one of the nicest places we’ve stayed!

Wonderful, spacious home in a quiet neighborhood. An easy and quick walk to Salida made it the perfect location for us to stay. Thank you Tom & Leann for the information you so willingly and readily shared in advance of our stay. Great visit.

Just as described! Beautiful home, comfortable, has everything you need! We love South Main, so many things to do right out your door! Corey provided clear instructions and was very responsive. Great stay for our family of four! Thank you.

I had the most amazing stay at this Airbnb! From the moment I arrived, everything exceeded my expectations. The host was incredibly welcoming and communicative, ensuring a seamless check-in process. The space itself was spotless, beautifully decorated, and equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect—close to great restaurants, attractions, and public transportation, yet still peaceful enough to relax. The little touches, like fresh coffee, cozy blankets, and thoughtful recommendations, made it feel like a true home away from home. I can’t recommend this place enough! Whether you’re visiting for a weekend getaway or a longer stay, this Airbnb is a gem. I will definitely be back!

This space was everything we needed. The location can not be beat. The rowhouse is warm and inviting, lots of charm.
