Over 2100 sq ft. Here is the view from the Loft - Hot Tub on the Deck
Location: Herbage Townhomes, Steamboat Springs, Northwest, Colorado, USA (Hayden Airport-30min - On Apres Ski Way-700 yds from Gondola) View Map
Accommodations: Townhouse End Unit, 3 Bedrooms + Loft + Den, 3 Baths (Sleeps 8-10)
This beautiful, spacious (2,200 sq ft), mountainside townhouse (end unit) will sleep TEN people without using the living room, will seat ten people in the kitchen, and is only 700 yards from the ski area.
Being an end unit there is only one common wall, there are windows on 3 sides, and there is no unit above, below, or behind making it much quieter than most. The three bedrooms are each on a different level and each has its own bath; one with a king-size bed, two each with queen-size, a loft with two twin beds, and a den with a queen-size sofa-bed.
The large living room (20x15) has new carpeting(2007)and is furnished with 2 sofas, a Lazyboy lounge chair, one other chair, an entertainment center with 25" TV, DVD, VCR, stereo with CD/tape player, gas fireplace and broadband internet access. The hot tub is located on the private 15 foot deck right off the living room. It is professionally serviced weekly (before you arrive).
The den (see photo on next page), a separate room off the living room, has its own 20" flat screen TV with gameboy ports, VCR, DVD player, sofa and lounge chair allowing your group to split up to enjoy different activities (great for kids). The loft also has two Lazyboy chairs offering a third sitting area.
The large, fully equipped, kitchen seats 10 using the oak table and island counter. It is a completely separate room (not a galley), has newer appliances (2004), parquet floor, and a TV. All of the maintenance is handled by our own manager who lives nearby. All basic amenities such as soap, shampoo, tissue, lotion, laundry supplies, 20 sets of towels, all linens, are supplied. Also, each of the three bedrooms has new electric blankets. Hair dryers and humidifiers (very important) are in each bedroom as well.
The FREE shuttle bus stops directly across the street or you can walk the 700 yards down to the ski area. An added benefit is that we have a SKI LOCKER at the mountain that is free for our guests.
Two nights rent will reserve. We will then send a formal Acknowledgement confirming dates, rates, and balance due date. We will email you the key lockbox combination upon receipt of the balance.

Why the Owner Chose Herbage Townhomes
For years, we traveled out west trying different ski areas. For some reason, we always gravitated back to Steamboat. First, we simply love the mountain. The terrain is such that I still need to pull out the trailmap at times even though I've skied here many times. I love that there are very distinct, separate areas and different types of terrain. I remember some ski resorts we've skied, regardless of the trail you started skiing, you would wind up at the very same place - not at Steamboat. Second, we love that it is a "real" town. Their was a Steamboat Springs before skiing was invented. It's a real town with real people. Lastly, being about 3 hours from Denver, you avoid the day trippers and weekend crowds. I like that as well.
In the few years we've owned it, we had so many lasting memories.
The Unique Benefits at this Townhouse End Unit
The access to the free shuttle is right outside the front door. The complex has many mature aspen trees ... you just get a wonderful sense of privacy. It's a short 5-10 minute walk to the base area if you feel like walking and with our ski locker, you won't need to drag ski equipment around everywhere you go.
The summertime was quite a surprise to me. It's simply beautiful. Lots of trails to hike or mountain bike. The golf courses are first rate and the town does a wonderful job with summer events like the summer concert series, food and wine expositions, etc.
Owner's Map of Herbage Townhomes
Gail and I currently live Charlotte, NC where I work within the banking industry in an IT role. Gail is a teacher at a local private school where she teaches both science and Spanish. We are currently "empty nesters" as our children are essentially on their own. Mark is a working musician in Boston and Stefanie is at Rutgers in New Jersey pursuing her Masters in Education.
We love to ski and love to get out to our townhome whenever we can. Ultimately, we hope to make it our mountain hideaway where we will spend 6 months a year and be an attraction for future grandchilden (not yet, though..).

Our week was just perfect, I wouldn't change a thing. Your home was ideal for us, well stocked, well layed out and very homey. The granddaughters loved the den with their own tv, games and puzzles. The hot tub was a big hit also. Best of all was the convenience of the shuttle and bless you for the mountain ski locker. We had 5 sunny days, watched the Cowboy Downhill while eating hamburgers grilled outside. You really provided everything. Thanks again.

We thought your home was great. It met our needs perfectly. The location was convenient to the slopes, the townhome itself was well stocked and nicely furnished. The ski locker was an added bonus. We would definitely stay at your home again.

Everything was great! You never know what you are renting until you see it in person and I have to say we were pleasantly surprised. We also loved that you have the ski locker. It was very convenient for us as we skied everyday.

I'd just like to thank you for help and assistance with the condo, it's rare that these days that things are exactly as advertised but your condo exceeded our expectations in every area. We had a fantastic trip with plenty of snow, we felt Steamboat was a lovely family oriented ski resort and would like to revisit some time in the future. I am green with envy that you have place to visit in such an idealic location ! Would be happy to recommend to anyone.
