Need a reminder of why people fall in love with Colorado?

Ride a tram to 12,012 feet and look out across five mountain ranges. ⛰️🚠

Monarch at the Crest Scenic Tramway is officially open for the season, giving visitors a chance to experience one of the most spectacular views in the state. The ride takes you to the top of the Continental Divide, where 360-degree mountain views stretch as far as the eye can see.

It's one of our favorite summer adventures near Salida, and one we find ourselves recommending again and again.

Pack a jacket, bring your camera, and don't forget the sunscreen. The views are unforgettable, and the mountain air feels pretty good, too.

Welcome back, Monarch at the Crest. Summer in the mountains just got a little better.

Five mountain ranges. 12,012 feet. Views you'll be talking about long after the ride is over. ⛰️🚠💚

When you're driving 4,000 miles across the U.S. in an RV, finding places worth slowing down for becomes part of the adventure.

We're so glad chose to spend part of their journey with us here at Creekside Chalets, parking their RV by the creek and using Salida as a home base to explore Chaffee County.

Watching their Reel brought a smile to our faces because it captures so many of the things we love about this area: mountain views that never get old, evenings around the campfire, time spent outdoors, and the kind of small-town charm that makes people wish they had booked one more night.

This is the version of that sticks with you long after the trip is over. ⛰️🌊✨

Thank you, Aksh*t & Tamanna, for sharing part of your adventure with us. We're thrilled that Salida became one of the stops along your incredible journey.

And be sure to follow as they continue their 4,000-mile RV road trip across America. 🚐⚡

Have you ever taken a road trip that ended up being even better than you expected?

Salida summers are all about river days, mountain air, and raising adventurous kids 🌊🏔️☀️

The FIBArk Youth Paddling Program gives kids and teens ages 6–18 the opportunity to learn whitewater kayaking and boating skills right here on the Arkansas River.

From learning basic paddle strokes and river safety to building confidence on the water, this program creates unforgettable experiences for young adventurers while teaching respect for the river and the outdoors 🚣♂️💙

With instruction both on the river and at the Salida Hot Springs Pool, beginner paddlers can safely learn the fundamentals, while advanced students continue developing whitewater techniques, river awareness, and teamwork skills.

Programs like this are a huge part of what makes Salida such a special mountain community, kids growing up outside, learning new skills, and making lifelong summer memories 🌲✨

Planning a family trip to Salida this summer? Stay with us at Creekside Chalets and turn your river adventures into a full mountain getaway with cozy chalet nights, creekside mornings, and easy access to all the FIBArk fun.

The FIBArk Parade returns on Saturday, June 20th from 10AM–12PM, bringing downtown Salida to life with colorful floats, horse-drawn wagons, monster trucks, “Hooligan” crafts, music, and plenty of small-town Colorado charm.

This is the kind of event that makes you fall in love with Salida even more ❤️ Families line the streets early with coffee in hand, kids wave at every float that passes by, and the whole town feels like one big celebration.

The parade route runs along F Street from 6th to 1st, followed by a foot parade to Riverside Park — making it the perfect way to spend a summer Saturday in the mountains ☀️🏔️

If you’re visiting for FIBArk weekend, now’s the time to book your stay at Creekside Chalets 🌲✨ Stay close to all the excitement while still having a cozy place to relax after a full day of festivities, live music, river events, and mountain adventures.

Quick reminder for locals and visitors: several downtown streets will close starting at 7AM on June 20th, and all vehicles must be moved from closed streets by 6AM to avoid towing.

Not every improvement at Creekside Chalets is something you can see right away, but some of the best upgrades are the ones you feel after a long day of mountain adventures 🚿🏔️✨

Behind the scenes, we recently completed an upgrade to our well house with new pressure tanks designed to improve water pressure throughout the chalets and campsites.

It may not be the flashiest project on the property, but after a full day of hiking, rafting, biking, soaking in hot springs, or exploring Salida, a hot shower with strong, consistent water pressure definitely matters 💚

Running a mountain property takes a lot of care, especially during busy summer months, and we’re always investing in the little things that help make your stay more relaxing, comfortable, and stress-free. From maintaining the grounds to improving amenities and updating systems behind the scenes, every project is done with our guests in mind 🌲

We want Creekside Chalets to feel easy, cozy, and welcoming from the moment you arrive, so you can spend less time worrying about the details and more time enjoying your Colorado getaway ☀️🐾🏕️

We can’t wait to welcome you back to the mountains.
