Hi Mike! Love that you loved the ski IN/OUT location! Wondering if you have any further feedback as to why we got a 4 star review vs a 5? We value guest insights and ideas whenever we can get them to improve our listings!
Hoot Haus has a great location in mountain village! The apartment is well appointed and very comfortable. The apartment is as described in the listing, however I don’t remember the listing completely as I’m writing this review, but I don’t remember if it mentions that there are lots of stairs to get to the unit and no elevator so keep that in mind if someone traveling with you might have difficulty with stairs. I would definitely stay here again!
Such a cool place. Great location. Be prepared for he stairs and altitude if you’re not familiar with the altitude. Host was very accommodating. Highly recommend.
the place itself was great, clean, upgraded and I highly recommend for single people or people without kids; lugging all of our stuff ie. highchair, pack n'play, stroller, etc down flights of stairs to the car was not ideal and I would not recommend this place for people with kids

Hi Kathleen - We appreciate the feedback as we know it can be hard to travel with children and their gear. You are correct that this building does not have an elevator. We are glad you loved the place and we appreciate your stay with us. ~Wild Oak Telluride
The Hoot House has it all. We stayed to participate in a ultra marathon and were provided with the ultimate accommodations to meet our needs so close to all Telluride has to offer
Great amenities, very clean, and a great ski in /ski out location. A great place for a couple or small family to enjoy the Mountain Village. We will be back!
Great place to stay in mountain village. Right in the middle of the village core. Easy walk everywhere. Parking was easy and very close. Ski in and out at the bottom of the stairs. Been here before and will keep coming back.
We had a wonderful visit and stay at the Hoot Haus at Mountain Village. The location of the condo as well as the decor and amenities of the condo were exceptional. So fun to sit out on the patio or watch activity out on the turf area in Reflection Plaza. We had a front row seat for the Friday night concert. We were close to the Gondola to go to Telluride for wonderful dinners or hiking on the mountain. Luke and group provided great recommendations for places to go out to as well as perfect directions for reaching the condo.
Can’t beat location for a Mountain Village getaway. Overlooking the plaza where a lot of fun family activities are planned. Steps away from the gondola.
Awesome location, true ski in/ski out, great property, Luke was an amazing host with the communication before and while we were there, and have to say we did not smell the pizza parlor downstairs. Go out the one door to mountain village, and the other door straight out to the chondola, ski in/ski out, Crazy Elk and Tomboy Tavern. We would definitely stay here again!
Ski-in ski-out. Exactly what we were looking for. You can ski all day and be on the couch- or at the bar- in 30 seconds. Couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you Luke!
My family of four just returned from the Hoot Haus in Mountain Village and had an excellent stay. We appreciated all of the little thoughtful touches and the location can’t be beat! It is truly ski-in ski-out and easily walkable to so many restaurants. It fit our family perfectly. All check in details were clearly communicated and the process was very smooth and easy. Thank you! We can’t wait to return!
We loved our stay! The only 2 things to note, as the bedroom is upstairs and no AC in Telluride, heat rises and sleeping was a bit hot. They do provide fans and have a wall unit in the master it still was a bit hot. Also, the parking garage isn’t super close to the unit so that made it a bit challenging to get all of our stuff up there. Worth it though because the location was perfect on the bottom of the gondola. The hosts were great, fast and easy communication. We will come back!
Amazing location, right on the slopes, right in mountain village
As somebody who frequents Telluride, this location is fantastic for skiing. Go right out the door to the slopes, or go downstairs for a slice of pizza, or easy access to all the other restaurants in MV. Not to mention, the gondola is just steps away.
The first thing you notice is the drinks and snacks and welcome note left specifically for you, which instantly makes you feel at home. The condo is clean, updated, and comfortable. I can tell you this is a place I will stay at in future visits to Telluride, as it cant get much better than this!
This place was in a great location! Skiing in and out was so easy! Truly the only negative is that how you get to the second loft wasn’t mentioned. We have little kids. 4 under 8 and the second loft is only accessible by an attic pull-down ladder that then blocks the master bedroom. It worked for us and wouldn’t necessarily keep us from renting again I just wish we would have known so we would have been more prepared. Overall it was an awesome place.

Hi Laura!
You'll be happy to know the owners are having a spiral staircase installed soon to make that loft access a bit easier. Glad you had a great time otherwise!
Stayed here in mid-January for a family of 4 ski trip. Wonderful, modern, well- maintained and decorated condo. Nice to stay at a place with character. Would definitely stay here again. Ski-in/ski-out location allowed us to eat lunch at the unit. Close to the gondola that took us both to Telluride town and the market for food. Only caveats are the need to carry gear/luggage up stairs to the second floor unit and up some stairs from the garage where the parking spot was. We were fine with that and a minor tradeoff for a great unit and location. And make sure the bedding arrangements work for you. All the beds were very comfortable. We used the king bed, the bed on the landing area and the loft bed.accessible via the pull down stairs. I was surprised that the food market was not crazy expensive for a resort town and easy to get to. We were unable to fit food from Montrose after flying in, so we went to market multiple times and had everything we needed! Telluride Village is beautiful.
