Comfortable, spacious home

My family of 8 enjoyed our stay in the Mesa area of Salida. It's away from town (quiet), but easily walkable to Safeway and the shops/restaurants on Main St and the riverwalk. The home had plenty of room for our family, and the beds were very comfy. Basic amenities were all there; the small back patio is nice, as is the fenced back yard. Excellent communication from the owners.

Mesa Location

This is a clean and lovely place to stay. It is in a quiet area that is close to downtown and the golf course. Great place to be if you want to walk or ride bikes. We especially liked the garage where we could safely store our bikes, chairs etc. Two bathrooms are upstairs and one is downstairs. Some rentals are not very clean but this one top notch. Thanks.

Great stay

This house has a great location and is close all the awesome things Salida has to offer. The house also seems to be magic as it’s much larger on the inside than it looks when you drive up. It was also well stocked with so many small things you tend to forget like ziplock bags, pens/markers, miscellaneous kitchen items and bathroom items. Very happy with our stay.
