8 miles to downtown BV on 2+ acres with private river access!

Cabin with views and has private river access!

License # 022110 We do have 6 beds (4 twins, 1 queen, 1 king.)

A frame cabin w/stunning views & about 8 miles from downtown BV. You have private access to BLM river front property to fish & walking distance to the put-in for railroad bridge. Open living room & kitchen with high celling's. Fenced backyard for the pups & great patio. This place is great for a romantic getaway or a group on vacation. Crack the bedroom window during the night and sleep to the sound of water that runs through the property.

Fully stocked kitchen with all the cooking supplies you need. Large refrigerator and pantry to store your food. Need a crockpot? No problem, we have one for you! If you have guests that need to stay away from stairs, we have two bedrooms that are on the main level and the bedroom with the king bed is upstairs and a attached bath. Take a nice 8 mile bike ride along a dirt road and the river that will drop you off in the center of Main Street.

Wonderful cabin near Buena Vista
This is a great cabin near the Arkansas river just north of Buena Vista. The cabin has great amenities including a nice back yard including a fire pit and grill. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The living room is spacious with plenty of room to relax. Easy access to the river for all of your recreation needs. I hesitate to oversell it as we plan to return next year!

40th Birthday Spring Break Getaway
Had a great time and this little cabin was perfect for our stay. Brought our two kids and our dog for spring break and my 30th birthday. Close enough to everything but nice and private. Great river access for a little walk. Lots of comfy throw blankets and everything else we needed. Thanks!

A relaxing mountain oasis
Loved the location of this property as it was just outside Buena Vista and quiet with the rush of the river noise in the background, yet still a quick drive to town whenever we needed something. This home away from home allowed us to play hard during the day in the mountains and come home and relax and make dinner at night. We ate every meal outside on the patio - it was breathtaking. We will definitely stay here again for our annual summer trip!

Amazing cabin that catered to furry friends!
What an amazing stay! It’s not often that you find a rental that accepts dogs, let alone caters to them! There were plenty of dog begs for all of our furry companions, lint rollers, and the fenced in yard was such a relief to top it off. The cabin was tastefully decorated, homey, and the perfect place for our family to land after a long day of snowmobiling. Extra stars for having a driveway to accommodate trailers for all of your toys! Bob and Lianne were so accommodative of our early and late departure which was another huge relief. A highly recommended stay for sure!

Colorado Spring Break
The rental was perfect for my family to enjoy a Colorado vacation. We fished for trout, visited the hot springs a short drive away outside Buena Vista, and relaxed. The fenced yard was great for our dog, and the location of the property was ideal for us - far enough away from town for quiet and solitude yet close enough for convenience. The only mishap was that the coffee maker stopped working on the second day, but the owner responded immediately to the issue and it was resolved with a new replacement. Great overall experience!!!

Blue Cabin is a great place to stay. The cabin is comfortable and homey. The kitchen has everything you need, just bring the food. Our two dogs enjoyed the fenced yard and the patio was very nice. If you enjoy bird watching, you will love Blue Cabin as well. From booking to check in to check out, everything went smoothly. We love Buena Vista and hope to return here later this year.

Access to the Arkansas River among the Aspens
We spent 5 nights here end of sept / Oct. and had a great time. Love the access to the river and the fenced in yard for the pets. Aspens were turning and fall color was beautiful. We did ride our bikes from the house to town (8-9 miles) and enjoyed going along the river and through the rock tunnels. Fyi- the way back to the house is slightly uphill and a little tougher. Kitchen is well stocked and there is an outside grill to use. This was great as many of the local restaurants we knew were affected by COVID-19. Living room is cozy and comfortable after a long day of hiking / exploring. Plenty of room for 2 couples or a family of up to 6. We love this area and would highly recommend for rafting, hiking, mountain biking, or just hanging out outside- beautiful!!!

Not ideal in Wintet
You have a nice home perfect for a family. Unfortunately, It is not an ideal VRBO in the Winter because the home did not warm up in the common space to stay comfortable. We needed to wear coats and beanies to stay warmer. The bedrooms did however stay warm with the space heaters which made it cozy. I am not sure if you were aware, but mice are in your home. We saw one run into the kitchen closet. And mouse droppings were by the dog bowl. So, it was a bit unsettling knowing there were unwanted visitors. It wasn’t an ideal situation for a stay.

Cozy and comfortable, very dog friendly!
Our family of 4 (2 boys plus 1 dog) had a very nice stay at this house over spring break. It was close enough to town but far enough to feel "away from it all." We did see wildlife (lots of deer) from inside the house, and on a walk by the river. The nearby river walks were scenic and a nice way to spend some time each day out with our dog. The house was nice, very clean, and had tasteful mountain decor. Beds/mattresses were very comfortable, and our boys just loved the twin bed room with their own TV/game system! The plush carpeting (bedrooms and stairs) made it very cozy. The fireplace was great and warmed up the house quickly. Kitchen was very well stocked with many items you might normally forget. Bathrooms were dated and had semi-private doors, but were clean and functional (and included some humorous wall decor!). Fenced-in yard was a great feature for dogs, and very clean too - would be awesome to sit out and enjoy during summer! Even though we did not get to take advantage of the many outdoor activities this area has to offer, we did enjoy the house and immediate area. The owners were very friendly, helpful and quickly responsive. Aside from the high damage deposit (and still waiting for VRBO to refund), we would recommend this house for all the reasons above!

Quiet country home
We loved this house. It was sp spacious and well equipped. Lots of light, well insulated and plenty of seating. We appreciated the very secure fencing around the property’s backyard as our beloved golden enjoyed keeping watch over the surrounding fields. There are great backroads for walking with no traffic and a nearby stream for wading. We hope to have a return trip.

great property for visiting the area
Clean and just as described - this property did not disappoint in any way. great for the dogs with the outside fenced area and the adjacent BLM land that leads down to a great spot on the River. Wish I'd brought my fly rod to catch a few of the dozens and maybe hundreds of trout I saw in the pool at the river access. Check in/out and communication were all great. Thanks!

Property and level of service was as expected from the listing. Good for our dog with size of property, fenced backyard (with chipmunk for chasing), and access to river. Only negative was daytime noise from heavy vehicles on the highway.

Buena Vista Tri
The kitchen was very well stocked with the tools needed for cooking most anything. Appliances were nice as well. The house also has plenty of blankets and other needed bedding and linens and tools. The home was in a very serene and beautiful area with a lovely patio to enjoy the outdoors. The fence was perfect for our dogs. The downstairs bathroom has a non-privacy louver door with a window sheer drape-type material covering the slats in the door, but it can be seen and heard through. The queen spring mattress on the main level was not comfortable for me. The river was a few minutes walk down the road. I had hoped it was just outside of the house but it was hard to tell with the pictures. Our stay there was a great experience. I would just want a privacy bathroom door downstairs.
