Location: Crested Butte, Crested Butte Area, Southwest, Colorado, USA (On Mt. Crested Butte, 30 Min. from Gunnison Regional Airport)
Accommodations: Townhome/Condominium, 3 Bedrooms, 3.5+ Baths (Sleeps 8)
The Hawk's Nest unit B is a new, spacious, and elegant town home across the street from the new, free West Wall quad lift. It has all the amenities you'd expect in a luxurious mountain home, including a unique western/mountain decor. As it sleeps 8, it is perfect for large families or groups of friends - winter and summer. The private Alpine Club enhances the experience, making it function as a ski-in/ski-out property.
The upper level has a large open floor plan with a vaulted, rustic-beamed ceiling. The views are spectacular. This is a wonderful place for gatherings around the gas log fireplace. The living room also features a 46" flat panel HD TV with virtual surround sound, DVD and iPod dock. The gourmet kitchen, featuring granite and knotty alder cabinets, makes cooking a pleasure. The 2 elevated bars seat 6, while the dining area seats 8. The views are spectacular. The east deck faces Crested Butte Mountain, seats 6, and has a gas grill. The larger west deck easily seats 8 and has unobstructed, sunset views across the entire valley.
The main entry opens on to Hunter Hill Dr. just across from the West Wall lift. On this middle level are the 3 bedrooms, each with its own 32" flat panel HD TV and travertine-tiled bathroom with shower. The master has a king bed, Jacuzzi tub, his and her sinks, and walk-in closet. The queen room has a desk with ethernet connection to complement Wi-Fi throughout the townhouse. The "Bunkhouse" has 2 extra-long, college-grade bunk beds to accommodate kids of all ages, as well as DVD and iPod dock.
The garage level opens on to Castle Rd. The utility room has a washer, dryer, iron and ironing board. The 2-car heated garage is oversized and easily accommodates 2 SUVs with car-top carriers, bicycles and other toys. But you really don't need your own vehicle, as the free shuttle bus stops every 15 minutes on both Castle Rd. and Hunter Hill Dr. in winter, and half a block away every 20 minutes in summer, to take you to the Mt. Crested Butte base area or historic downtown Crested Butte with their wonderful, affordable restaurants.
To relax after a hard day of skiing, biking, hiking, or shopping, Hawk's Nest guests have complimentary use of the private Alpine Club located across the street. This includes the best fitness center on the mountain with his and her steam rooms, a lounge, and outdoor hot tub, pool, and fire pit, which practically sit on the slopes. And since the Alpine Club is at the bottom of the West Wall lift, their ski and boot valet and storage service makes the Hawk's Nest function as a ski in/ski out property.
And don't forget Crested Butte's beautiful summers. At 8500' the temperatures are perfect. Known as the wildflower capital of Colorado the hiking and mountain biking are spectacular. The fishing is 5-star. And then there are the Wildflower, Food and Wine, Mushroom and Art festivals. September Splendor follows the incredible turning of the aspen trees.
Guest Book comment: "As you can see from the kids comments, we had a great ending to '07, and even better start to '08! The access to the Alpine Club for fitness, ski storage, and drinks is great."
