| The Thomas
House, a Salida Colorado Bed and Breakfast, is not only a block from the
Arkansas River, surrounded by Fourteeners, but also at the heart of Salida
lodging history.
This Salida,
CO lodging property was built in 1888 as a rooming house for the bustling
business brought by the Denver and Rio Grand Railroad, catering to the
workers who built and kept the railroad running in the Salida, Colorado
area. In 1880, the first summer of both the town’s and the railroad’s existence;
records show that 6,000 travelers a month came to Salida, Colorado.
With the demise
of the railroad and mining in the mid to late 1900s; Salida, Colorado has
remained a major intersection for Rocky Mountain travelers. Today, Salida
is a major crossroads of Colorado hosting over 475,000 visitors per year.
The Thomas House continues to provide accommodations to many of these visitors
as the premier Salida hotel lodging alternative.
Whether you
enjoy golf, fly fishing, hunting, mountain biking, or hiking for outdoor
adventure or you just want to kick back and relax, we want to be your Colorado
vacation spot and to help make your experience unforgettable. The
Salida area offers activities for all seasons such as those mentioned above
as well as winter sports like skiing, snowboarding, and snowmobiling.
After 15 years
