Downtown BV Retreat _311_ Steps to Main & River

*** Discount for Longer Stays. Msg Us. ***

Steps from the heart of Buena Vista; Downtown BV_311 shares a rustic alleyway with E Main St amenities, restaurants, music, and seasonal events. This single-family home is a half mile walk to the Arkansas River with hiking/biking on either side. Enjoy the 'Lawn' amphitheater & the Surf Park at South Main, and the vast events/gatherings it holds throughout the year.

Discover the perfect mountain retreat, blending modern elegance with rustic charm. The first floor features a beautifully designed open-concept 'Great Room' with mountain-modern finishes and plank wood flooring, seamlessly connecting the living room, kitchen, and dining area. Ideal for hosting, this inviting space is perfect for lively gatherings, from sharing laughs to dining and toasting with friends and family.

The Queen and Bunk House share a full bathroom equipped with a large tub, while the Master Suite enjoys the privacy of its own ensuite bath. Every room is designed for comfort, featuring ceiling or floor fans (sometimes both) to ensure optimal airflow and calming white noise. Soundproof insulation has been added between rooms to guarantee a peaceful, restful night for all guests.

Ample parking is available for all visitors, with street parking out front, or space for larger vehicles, like RVs, in the deep back driveway (40’) off the ally.

We've stayed in BV two times before, and this was by far our best experience. Such a beautiful and comfortable home, and more spacious inside than it appears to be. Hard to imagine a a better location for a VRBO of this caliber.

The house could not be in a more perfect location. All restaurants & shops only 1 block away. This home was the most stocked rental we have ever been at. It was very clean, spacious & the bunk bed room was a hit with my children. We went dog sledding, skiing, snow mobiling & to the hot springs. Great stay!

Very nice property and good location

Very nice, new construction. Went skiing in Leadville which is about an hour drive, and went to Cottonwood Hot Springs which was about 10 minutes away. Restaurants and shopping just a quick walk around the corner. View from house itself is of commercial properties vs. the cuter area of downtown, but you are only steps away.
