The Space:

Built in 1948, this house belongs to a later chapter in Buena Vista’s long story — a town shaped first by ranching in the Arkansas Valley, then by the railroads that helped connect this mountain community to the wider West.



In time, this little place took on a story of its own. It was once home to Little House Antiques, a shop on Cottonwood Avenue where old things waited to be found, admired, and carried forward into new lives.



Today, it is known as The Cabin Down Below — This historic cabin is in the heart of Buena Vista. The Eddyline Pub is a stones throw away and the legendary K's Dairy Delight is just across the street.



Once it held discovered treasures.



Now it holds discovered moments.



Guest Access:

Guest will have access to the whole cabin. There are a few locked closets for the owners and supplies.



Other Things to Note:

Please note: Like many homes in Buena Vista and other Colorado mountain towns, this home does not have air conditioning. However, temperatures in the mountains cool significantly in the evenings. Simply open a few windows and turn on fans to quickly cool the space and enjoy the fresh mountain air.
