Modern mountain bungalow with private patio + epic Mt. Princeton views
Modern 450 sq ft bungalow with unobstructed Mt. Princeton views, a private patio, and peaceful location on Buena Vista’s southwest side. Sleeps 4 with a queen bed and sofa bed. Includes full kitchen, laundry, fast WiFi, grill, fire pit, and no TV—just books, puzzles, and mountain serenity.
You’ll have a private entrance and your own dedicated space. Owners live full-time in a separate part of the home. Your local host is happy to offer local recommendations or assist if needed—but we’ll leave you to enjoy your stay unless you reach out.
Located on the quiet southwest side of Buena Vista, our bungalow offers a peaceful retreat with easy access to everything the area has to offer. You’re just minutes from downtown shops, local restaurants, and the grocery store, but away from the busier parts of town—ideal for relaxing after a day of adventure.
We’re close to it all: 0.7 miles to Main Street, 1.4 miles to the Arkansas River and South Main, 6 miles to Cottonwood and Charlotte Hot Springs, and less than 20 minutes to incredible hiking and biking trails. Whether you're here for river time, mountain trails, or ski days, you’ll love this convenient yet calm location.
You’ll have full, private access to the bungalow via a keyless entry system. Your private entrance and parking area are located on the north side of the property. The gravel driveway is 22 feet wide by 47 feet long—large enough for a truck and trailer. You’ll also have access to your private back patio, outdoor gear lock-up points, and a hose with sprayer for light gear rinsing.
Please note: the EV charger is not yet available, and we ask that guests do not wash vehicles or fill water tanks on site.

Very functional with a lots of extra features for convenience such as shopping bag with discount card, plenty of electrical plugs, modern lighting, well stocked kitchen with. coffee pot and tea kettle.The view is amazing. Both beds comfortable and super nice washer and dryer. We would definitely stay here again.A small unit, but just right for two people.
We loved our stay at BV Sunset Casita! Check-in was a breeze with Jonathan’s clear messages and digital guidebook. The home was spotless, quiet, and exactly as described—comfortable beds, well-stocked kitchen, and thoughtful touches throughout. The location is ideal for Buena Vista: easy access to town, trails, and hot springs. Parking was simple and we felt safe the whole time. Communication was fast and friendly. We’d happily stay again and recommend this casita to friends and family. Thanks for a great visit!
