Description for Buena Vida
Mountain vacations don’t get any better than what you’ll experience at Buena Vida. With the valley stretched out before you, you can lounge on multiple decks, breathe in the fresh mountain air and enjoy a dip on the hot tub’s soothing waters. It’s pure relaxation.
When you enter the Buena Vida great room, the vaulted log-beam ceiling and wood walls create a strong cabin vibe. The great room floor plan allows an easy flow of conversation between the living, dining and kitchen areas. Snuggle up on the living room’s comfortable couch and chairs to watch the crackling fire in the wood-burning fireplace. Watch a little TV or play a movie on the DVD player, or send photos home to friends using the free Wi-Fi. Just off the great room is the sprawling deck with a dining table and chairs. It’s fun to sip your first cup of morning coffee out on the deck while you listen to the birds singing. You also have a gas grill, just throw on some steaks and dine al fresco looking out over your million-dollar view. There’s also a dining table indoors where you can enjoy hearty stews, chili and other fare prepared in the cabin’s fully equipped kitchen.
If you’re not going fishing, skiing, golfing or hiking, you’ll want to head up the stairs to the game room where you’ll find a pool table that converts into a ping-pong table, a bar, a table for cards and another TV. Think of all the fun you’ll have challenging your fellow guests. Buena Vida has three bedrooms, each with its own en suite bathroom. There’s also a half bath and a washer and dryer. The primary bedroom includes a king-size bed and sliding door access to the deck. The second bedroom features a king-size bed and a twin and has direct access to the hot tub. The third bedroom is outfitted with a comfortable queen-size bed.
You’ll have the time of your life at Buena Vida. Book your stay today!
Please Note: If you visit in winter, it is wise to arrive in a 4x4 vehicle or at least have chains for your car. Despite the best efforts, winter roads can be icy and snow-packed.
