Rocky Top River Ranch

It was wonderful! We stayed in the tree house and it was beautiful. The house was so clean, beds so comfy, awesome shower! It was so comfortable and we had a great time. The kayaks and paddle boards were right there for us to use. The fire pit set up was great! We will definitely be back and with friends.

We rented the A-Frame. The site manager, Gino, was extremely accommodating and friendly. The cabin was cute and clean. I loved the sounds of the river on the other side of the dirt road. There is a nice, scenic, flat place to bike (CR 45-to Vallie Bridge ~8 miles RT). Nearby Salida is our new favorite Colorado town. It is bursting with positive energy, loads of restaurants, entertainment and charm. We will be back. :)

So beyond grateful for the folks at Rocky Top! We found ourselves stranded at 11PM with 3 dogs in our truck. Renee picked up their after hours line and was so gracious and helpful. She made sure we had a safe place to sleep within 20 minutes of us calling. We woke up to the most stunning view, friendly neighbors, and the Arkansas River right in the back yard. Thank you Rocky Top!

I do not favor posting bad reviews. I actually avoid it. We all have bad days and do not meet standards and I will not judge you from that. However, this place said they would contact me regarding the filth and they didn’t so I am here to share our experience. Last minute decision to stay overnight, these guys had availability. By the way, to this day we are grateful. The check in process was a hassle. Everything is online and there is no cell service. We drove about 10 minutes down the road attempting to check in until we went back to the hotel and went inside a bar for help (who gave us their password to their wifi, not the hotels) to move forward. You don’t get the hotels password to their wifi until you fill out forms ONLINE and upload your drivers license which is 2 separate website l

An absolutely beautiful location. The river is literally right across the street. You can sit on the porch and listen to it all day. There's a delicious restaurant right near the resort. The lovely little town of Salida is about 15 miles away and is certainly worth a visit. Access to the river next to the cabin isn't ideal for swimming or kids, but it's perfect for fishing. There is perfect access about 4 miles east of the cabin, so it's super close. The cabin itself is cozy and offers everything you need for a short stay. Internet and cell service are spotty and unreliable, but I didn't care too much about that. All in all, I would recommend this cabin. The views are beautiful.
