Sit back in the comfy antique recliner and watch the flame in the woodstove through the glass door, as the aspen leaf's flicker in the wind outside the picture windows that look out onto Mt.

The sunset colors on the surrounding mountain peaks will amaze you as you sit on the sundrenched deck.

The cabin is beautiful and very comfortable. Nice and clean and new feeling. The air smelled beautifully of pine and the deck and grill were great. Location was central to Leadville and Buena Vista both. Would definitely go back.

Weekend Trip to Riverside Vintage Campers
We had a great stay and would definitely recommend! Lovely location that felt more nestled in nature but easy drive to Gunnison. The camper setup was cute and nice enough for the price, the outhouse was clean and they provided all the essentials.
Bring bug spray as it’s right on a river so the mosquitos did get pretty intense in the evening.
