This is a gorgeous 1909 home with a 2010 two story addition that has been newly renovated and furnished for your enjoyment :) Just 260 yards from the Arkansas River by the ball fields, you can walk down M street and put your feet in the river in 3 minutes. You can also put boats/tubes in the river here and float through downtown, or land here after floating to town from upstream. Stroll or bike the riverwalk that starts here and takes you to downtown, or upstream to a couple local lakes.

Several eddies and "beaches" lie along the riverwalk that both humans and pets enjoy. The amazing downtown, with all the restaurants, shops and bars is just a 10 minute walk away, through a quiet neighborhood. Getting on the river- to do the town stretch (can be done in tubes or boats) you can put in right at the ball fields, straight down M street at the dirt parking lot. It’s a really fun float through some flat water, then 4 fun rapids in town. If you float through town and take out at the end of the river path, behind the Touber Building, it’s just a 17 minute walk back to the house with your tubes. For a longer day stretch, you can put in at the 166 road bridge (1 hour+ float), or Stone Bridge (3 hour float) and take out at the ball fields. What’s it like staying here- we love this neighborhood for its proximity to the river and downtown, without being in the crazy action of it. It’s a quiet neighborhood but a short walk to everything you’ll want to do while you’re in Salida. If you’re an early riser, you might even see the local deer waking up in the next door neighbor’s yard.
