The house was beautiful, clean, and inviting. The host had thought of everything a person could possibly need. They labeled all cabinets, towels were set out for guests, nightstands had plugs for electronics, and she had a personal greeting with a small gift.The beds were comfy, kitchen was great for meals, and large table provided for family games! Thank you for great memories. We hope to visit again.

Love Buena Vista

We live in Colorado Springs, and we love to travel to Buena Vista for a few days to get away.This is actually our second time renting this property. My husband and I stayed by yourselves the first time and found the house perfect for our needs. Everything was just as stated in the listing and pictures. It was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The owners are very accommodating and easy to work with.We thought at the time the house would work well to bring our family to. So we did, and everything was just what we needed for our family to relax and enjoy Buena Vista!We all agreed we would definitely look forward to another stay!

great area

The VRBO was very nice. The King bed on the lower level was a little high for my older mother, a step stool or some kind of wide stool would be helpful for shorter people. the Back sliding door was unlocked and we were not able to latch it so it was open while we were there and while we were out. A stick or something to secure it would be helpful. It was a great location and BV is an awesome place. Our VRBO owner was wonderful and very kind.

Rafting and enjoying BV

We joined other Arkansas friends to paddle the Arkansas River. This place was an excellent location to town and several bike paths close by. The garage made for a great place to store our gear. The backyard gave us extra space to hangout and watch the mountains and double rainbows from afternoon showers.
