Retired custom homebuilder. I re-built this old farmhouse into a custom home from the ground up. The only thing remaining was the four walls and the roof. after building 600 homes I built this one just for me and my taste and I think you will like what I did. I always wanted a sink in my bedroom, so each room has it's own vanity and sink.
You also have access to over 280 acres to hike and explore.

Stay on this historic ranch in the heart of Salida. To be on 300 secluded acres and 3 miles from all of the enjoyment of Salida makes this a one of a kind experience. The ranch acres are open for wandering or simply watch the wandering deer, horses, and cattle. Additionally, there are a myriad possibilities for adventure close by, including horseback riding, rafting the world famous Arkansas River, hiking, biking, fishing, skiing, shopping, and delicious eats!

This historic Chavara Ranch has kept the old charm of the original homestead. Once you visit, you will come back year after year!

The space:
The ranch house has been remodeled featuring a luxurious master suite with a 5 piece bath. Upstairs there is a well appointed bathroom and three large guest bedrooms upstairs all with their own vanity. The cozy living area has a hearth and fireplace. The kitchen has an island where all can join and a large adjoining dining room for family meals. The Chavara Ranch is perfect for family time, ambling around the acreage in awe of the views and stars, wandering deer, horses, and Angus cows, or adventuring out in the wondrous avenues of Salida's best offerings - We look forward to your enjoyment!
