Clean & comfortable home near hot springs, wedding venues & downtown Buena Vista

The Blue House is approximately 4 minutes from downtown Buena Vista and has easy access to Cottonwood Pass, both Mt. Princeton and Cottonwood Hot Springs, local Drive-In movie theater, hiking trails, rafting, horseback riding, fishing and many other outdoor adventures to be found in Buena Vista.

The property is near Cottonwood Creek and the sounds of the creek can be heard from the back yard from late May-end of the summer season (we do not have direct access to the creek). It is not unusual to see wildlife, primarily deer, down by the creek and in surrounding areas. Expansive views of the beautiful Sawatch mountain range, framed by 14,000 foot Mt. Princeton are highlighted from the property. Additionally, the property has a large driveway with ample space for parking (and a lot of space for easy turn around for larger vehicles or trailers). The driveway and location is perfect for your ATV or snowmobile trailers!

The home is conveniently located just off of the Main Street in Buena Vista, so it is close to all of your adventures and very close to many of popular wedding venues, particularly the Barn at Sunset Ranch.

This Blue House is a wonderful fit for a family or couples. It has modern amenities and appliances in the kitchen, and is stocked with essential supplies (toilet paper, paper towels, linens, soaps, and the kitchen is well stocked with dishes, utensils, pots and pans, etc.) .

My wife, son and I stayed here for 3 nights and had a wonderful time. The place was extremely clean and nice. The property had beautiful views of the mountains and the stream in the backyard was an added bonus. The house had a great setup for toddler (no shaper edges or things he could get into that he shouldn’t). We would definitely stay here again

A gem in Buena Vista!

I am a frequent visitor to Buena Vista. This place was such a lovely home, plenty of room for everyone to be comfortable, large kitchen and a killer view of Mt Princeton. Convenient location to everything in BV as well as the hot springs. The host was incredibly kind and responsive and let us check in early when we got in to town. We will definitely be staying here again in the future

A fine line between work and leisure!

Colleagues and I were traveling for work in BV (to host the most beautiful fundraising event) and the house made the entire trip. It was clean, beautiful, and easy to access. Great parking, wifi, and easy check in/out. I would recommend The Blue House as a stop for anyone hoping to enjoy Chaffee County!

Beautiful Blue House

The Blue House was beautiful, in an excellent location and every detail was thought of for their guests. My daughter forgot her tooth brush and they had some extras. All the rooms are so comfortable, lots of room for hanging out with the family and beautiful views of the mountains out the windows.

Annual Girls Trip

House was awesome and accommodated all of us girls. It was a non-stop adventure day driving from Denver, whitewater rafting and visiting the hot springs, we were exhausted traveling to check into the house. The check-in process was so easy and clear. House was clean and welcoming, shower was amazing, close to downtown BV. Thank you for opening up your house to us! Would stay here again!
