Very clean rooms, location was great, having the airport trail nearby was perfect, backyard fence was secure for our pups which is a huge plus for us, and the hot tub was just a big cherry on top.

Buena Vista Basecamp
This was our second time staying here, most likely won't be our last. The location of this home is perfect for exploring Buena Vista and surrounding areas. We love that pets are allowed. The beds are insanely comfortable and after a long day at the hot springs a comfy bed is much appreciated. We are definitely going to stay here again.

Great for medium sized groups and pet friendly
Property has 3 queen beds in the bedrooms and a large sectional couch. Good sized backyard for your dog and one of the best views in Buena Vista. It's right off the highway, but you could barely hear traffic unless you have the windows open.Property is clean and well stocked with a breeze of a check in process and friendly owners.

A great visit to Mt Princeton area
The location was perfect, just out of town but close enough for a beautiful walking path and an ease to walk or drive into town. The property is kept up nicely, instructions for recycle and garbage along with water and furnace were clearly marked and all appliances worked nicely. The house was very clean and tidy and very very welcoming. Hot tub was a lovely addition to our stay and the neighborhood is quiet and well kept. The beds were comfy and we enjoyed the game room. The kitchen gadgets were helpful, coffee grinder and French press being our favorites as we enjoyed the local Brown Dog coffee roasters close by.

Just right!
We had a great experience staying at The Rapid Ranch! Easy location in town with plenty of parking. House had all the supplies we needed. Hot tub was excellent. Had plenty of room for all of us plus our dogs. It is right off the main highway so traffic noise is a tad loud. Other than that, a great place to stay!

Great stay in Buena Vista
We had two fantastic nights in The Rapid Ranch House after a week of camping up at Twin Lakes. The house was great! Everything was clean and well maintained. Each teenager had their own room, which was huge plus. We enjoyed the hot tub, pool table and pingpong. Highly recommend this house.

Sweet lottle spot, close to everything
This place is wonderful for a getaway in the mountains. We went to Mt. Princeton and this was the perfect homebase for us. The house was clean and the bed was ultra comfy. Only thing we could complain about was the lack of privacy for the hottub. A privacy screen would be perfect. If you park your vehicle just right you can block the view passing cars. Other than that its a great place to stay for a couple of days.
