General overview
Enjoy the mountain life and easy small town of Salida! We live in a quaint farmhouse in a great location in town. We recently built a lovely detached garage with an apartment above on our lot.
The apartment is a sunny 700 square feet and overlooks our garden and lawn. 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom guest house ideal for couples, solo adventurers, small families, and traveling medical professionals.
Comfortable king size bed in the bedroom, high quality queen sleeper sofa in the living room, waterfall shower, and a complete kitchen with a dining table and counter bar.
The space
The living space is lovely and bright with tall ceilings and high quality furniture. The kitchen is nice and clean and includes everything you would need to make your favorite meals or feasts. Grocery stores, bakeries, shops, restaurants, parks, and downtown are all within walking distance.
Guest access
There is parking available for one vehicle, and you will go up stairs to get up to the apartment. Access is located in the alley.
Once you’re here, you would not need your car for anything in town. We are walking distance to everything in town. I would suggest a car if you are looking to explore the surrounding mountains and communities such as climbing and hiking 14ers, soaking in hot springs (6 all within 5-60 min drive), biking the Crest, skiing Monarch (actually, for this you could take the shuttle), and exploring nature.
Notes
Unless we are away, we would be your neighbors. We are happy to help with anything you may need while you were here. We are a friendly and active family of four. We will respect your space, and give your room you need, or meet you for a beverage for some friendly conversation and laughs!

We are happy to meet you for drinks, tell you the local hang outs, best hikes and bike rides, and sweet places to take the kids!
Active family of four. We are a very kind and respectable family who love to be outside. Brian enjoys mountaineering and floating on our raft down the rivers. Amy enjoys mountain biking and hiking, our two boys are lucky enough to do all those with us. We also have a pup, Indy. She’s very sweet, and travels with us sometimes.
"My son plays competitive soccer and we have many weekend games in Denver March-April. We live in Salida and have a very nice furnished apartment to exchange. It is not our primary home, it is clean and furnished. It is currently rented, available April"
