And after a day of enjoying the great outdoors, what could be better than retiring to our luxurious accommodations and treating your tired muscles to a wonderful massage?

For a wonderful meal,lunch,snack or dinner we highly recommend Mothers Bistro on East Main St., in downtown Buena Vista.

White Water Rafting -- The Arkansas is an outstanding rafting river, with a full range of whitewater experiences, from Class 3 right up to Class 5 action in The Numbers. And the scenery is exceptional as well. We recommend the following professional companies.

Wilderness Aware Rafting

Noah’s Ark

Fly Fishing – The Upper Arkansas River is the best spot for your fly fishing trip. The famous Caddis Hatch, the quiet pools and the 2-mile stretch of virtually private river adjacent to our home make Las Manos the perfect fly fishing home base. And of course our area has dozens of high mountain lakes and streams too.

Rock Climbing

Las Manos is within walking distance of Turtle (Bob's) Rock and Elephant Rock, which are regularly climbed by locals and out-of-towners alike. Turtle Rock is a favorite of many of the Rafting companies that operate rafting and climbing trips. Both areas boast good granite with 5.8 and higher and some excellent overhanging lead climbing areas. View more information on climbing in Buena Vista.
