There is a steep hill on the county road leading to our property that can be icy during and after storms. Drivers with experience living and driving in mountain communities should not have any issues. We strongly recommend that less experienced or uncomfortable drivers bring a 4WD/all wheel drive vehicle and arrive during daylight hours. If you reach the hill and do not feel comfortable driving, please reach out to us and we can shuttle you to your rental unit between 9 am and 6 pm. We are fortunate to be within a 5-minute drive (2 miles) to downtown Salida; our property sits on top of a wooded hill, so we are able to provide a natural and secluded property without sacrificing your ability to quickly reach restaurants and shops.
