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.

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.
