Map & Owner's Profile
7th Nite Free W/ Week Rental - 2BR/2BA - Short Walk Into Town
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Twin Elk
We purchased the Twin Elks Lodge for several reasons. First of course is the fact it is located in Breckenridge. Breckenridge is nice small town with almost everything with a short walk from the condo. Another reason is its ready access to the ski slopes. The shuttle bus stops right in front of the condo units and it is 3 – 5 minute ride to the slopes. When we are finished with a day of skiing, we take the Four O’Clock run down and ski to within walking distance to the condo.
Owner's Map of Twin Elk
Karen and I are originally from central Wisconsin – Wausau and Antigo. In Wisconsin we lived in Fond du Lac, Madison, and Germantown. We have also lived in Salem, OR, Cincinnati, OH, Albuquerque, NM and now in Broomfield, CO. We have come to really love two parts of the country, the coast of Oregon and Mountains of Colorado.
When we were living in Albuquerque, we started taking weekend trips to the Colorado Mountains staying in numerous ski resort areas. When we arrived in Breckenridge we realized this is the place we wanted to spend some time. We decided to begin looking for a condo and when we found Twin Elks, we knew it was the one we wanted. It is newer condo, well maintained with townhouse setup – living area on the second floor and the bedrooms on the first.
The condo also fulfilled one our major requirements, it just a little over a block away for Main Street which allows us to park the car and walk anywhere we want.

Your condo is so very comfortable and cozy, we were lucky to have chosen this one. Thank you for the fine Colorado hospitality.

Taken from our Guest Book: "Thank you so much for making our July 4th weekend so comfy. Your home was perfect in every way. We slept well (thanks for providing humidifiers!), ate every meal at home (thanks for providing everything - spices, etc.), and the weather was quite a relief from our home in Scottsdale - we loved it."

Comment from our Guest Book: "What a great place you have! We couldn’t ask for more. The kitchen was so well equipped – thank you. The day we arrived it was snowing and we had five great days on the mountain. Our kids have given up their skies for boards but mom and dad can’t change that easy! Thanks again for such a wonderful place to stay."

Comment from our Guest Book: "Dennis & Karen – We felt so at home it felt like we had moved our own house from London to Breck, 4800 miles. We loved staying in Twin Elk and would really like to return some time in the future. We envy your chances to come up and stay, even for just a weekend."
