Downtown BV Retreat _311_ Steps to Main & River

*** Discount for Longer Stays. Msg Us. ***

Steps from the heart of Buena Vista; Downtown BV_311 shares a rustic alleyway with E Main St amenities, restaurants, music, and seasonal events. This single-family home is a half mile walk to the Arkansas River with hiking/biking on either side. Enjoy the 'Lawn' amphitheater & the Surf Park at South Main, and the vast events/gatherings it holds throughout the year.

Discover the perfect mountain retreat, blending modern elegance with rustic charm. The first floor features a beautifully designed open-concept 'Great Room' with mountain-modern finishes and plank wood flooring, seamlessly connecting the living room, kitchen, and dining area.

Ample parking is available for all visitors, with street parking out front, or space for larger vehicles, like RVs, in the deep back driveway (40’) off the ally.

Excellent spotless property close to town

The very clean, modern home is located within walking distance of all that Buena Vista offers.The home was very well equipped with cookery, towels, bedding.The outdoor space was shaded, comfortable and has the added benefit of listening to live music nearby on South Main Street.There is a sister property next door - so if you had a really big crew you could rent both.We enjoyed our stay - the host keep us apprised of door codes and had detailed instructions on checking in and out.We’d definitely stay here again and recommend this home to others

Very nice property and good location

Very nice, new construction. Went skiing in Leadville which is about an hour drive, and went to Cottonwood Hot Springs which was about 10 minutes away. Restaurants and shopping just a quick walk around the corner. View from house itself is of commercial properties vs. the cuter area of downtown, but you are only steps away.

We've stayed in BV two times before, and this was by far our best experience. Such a beautiful and comfortable home, and more spacious inside than it appears to be. Hard to imagine a a better location for a VRBO of this caliber.

The house could not be in a more perfect location. All restaurants & shops only 1 block away. This home was the most stocked rental we have ever been at. It was very clean, spacious & the bunk bed room was a hit with my children. We went dog sledding, skiing, snow mobiling & to the hot springs. Great stay!

Perfect base for exploring BV and beyond

This home was perfect for our group of 5 adults. Incredibly clean & comfortable. Quiet street. All of the amenities you hope to have. Subtle but important touches like tankless water heater so no worries of lukewarm showers. Great location for exploring BV >> short walks to restaurants, bars, shops, and the river. A short drive to rafting and dozen of trailheads including 14ers. Dan The Owner is super responsive. We will definitely book this home on our next trip to BV.
