Take County Road 175 from Salida to the intersection with County Road 185. Bear left onto CR 185 and continue past the quarry on the left. Proceed just past the intersection with CR 184 (staying on 185) and the home is immediately on your left. Road bisects the property so a small corner of the lot is on the right side of the road.
