Why the Owner Chose Crested Butte
Crested Butte offers so much for the outdoor enthusiast. There is an incredible amount of National Forest and Wilderness within close proximity to Crested Butte. In fact, trailheads to many mountain bike and hiking trails are right out the front door of my home.
In the winter, the ski area is within view and only 3 short minutes drive from my home. You can just peek out the windows, see which lifts are running, what the skier traffic is like and hit the slopes. If you are not in the mood for lift serviced skiing, there are snowmobile trailheads nearby and a groomed cross country trail less than 300 meters away.
In the summer, several different mountain biking options are right out the door and the garage is a great place to throw a quick tune on your bike. If you are a hiker, you can walk across the street and access the recreation path that links the two towns with several hiking trails. If a scenic drive is what you are craving, take a left out of Glacier Lily Estates and drive the Gothic loop over Paradise Divide and back to the house. This is a beautiful drive and a great way to spend a day. Tennis anyone? There is a private tennis court 50 meters from the home.
There is good fishing within a mile of the house and larger rivers are less than 3 miles away. If the group is interested in rafting or kayaking, drive to Almont and enjoy a day floating the Taylor or Gunnison River. The local outfitters and guides are professional and well trained. Whether you are into whitewater, flat water or float fishing, the guides of the Gunnison Country will hook you up!
The Unique Benefits at this House
One of the most special events of the day begins when you wake up and look out one of the enormous picture windows and see the colors of the sunrise lighting the magnificent mountain peaks. The timer on the automatic coffee pot has started and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee fills the home calling you to the kitchen. As you curl up in a leather recliner with a fresh cup, reading one of the local papers, a fox strolls across the open field and you know that no matter what activities you choose for your day you won't have to fight traffic or go far to enjoy them!
Retail shops, restaurants, movie theater, grocery store, skating rink arts center and much, much more!
Take this road and take an immediate left. My home 20 Glacier Lily Estates is the first house on the left. Otherwise, this road accesses Gunnison National forest for biking, hiking, jeeping and skiin
Home of the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory. Great trailhead access for hiking, biking and horseback riding.
Brush Creek Rd is another great way to access National Forest.
Private landing strip for small planes. Want to fly into Crested Butte? I can give you permission while staying at my home!
Cement Creek Rd. is another access point to National Forest. It is also the turn that accesses Crested Butte South.
Bedding Community of Crested Butte area. It has a couple of great restaurants. Definitely worth the trip!
Another great National Forest access. Also a great short cut to and from Taylor Canyon.
State Fish Hatchery. Good fishing. They raise Kokanee salmon.
Wintering grounds for many local big game herds including elk, deer and bighorn sheep. Parking beside the highway and using binoculars you can often see many different animals on the hillsides.
The East and Taylor Rivers join to for the Gunnison River. Great fishing and boating area.
Catch and Release fishing area of the Taylor River. Don't forget to wet your hands!
Largest body of water in Colorado. Great for all water activities. State record Mackinaw was caught here.
Owner's Map of Crested Butte
Hello,
My name is Marc J. Solari and I have lived in Crested Butte for almost 16 years. I just love this place. Everything I like to do in the mountains, on the rivers and in the lakes is in close proximity and easily accessible.
Living in a small resort town, I have had an opportunity to work in several different fields. I have been a construction worker, landscaper, bartender, waiter, teacher, guide and I even worked as a distributor for wine, beer and spirits. Recently I was very fortunate to find my home located in Glacier Lily Estates. Now I am guiding and trying my hand at vacation rentals. So far it has worked out exceptionally well. Everyone that has stayed at my home has had nothing but wonderful comments and moments of disbelief as to how incredible their stay has been.
I am considering these results an immediate success, but I am not stopping there. I am constantly upgrading my home, its amenities and my abilities as a caretaker to offer the most comfortable vacation rental experience in Crested Butte.
