About this property
Purgatory Base Condo | Bike Park + Colorado Trail Access
Purgatory Base Condo by Boutique Mountain Stays sits just across from Purgatory Resort’s main lodge, set up for full days outside and easy, comfortable evenings back home.
In the summer, this is an ideal base for riding, hiking, and exploring the San Juans. With the Purgatory Bike Park reopening soon, you can walk to the lift in just 2–3 minutes and spend the day on the trails without dealing with parking or logistics. Between lift-served riding, alpine activities, and high-country hiking, it’s easy to fill full days without ever getting back in the car.
Summer at Purgatory brings more than just biking. Scenic chairlift rides offer sweeping mountain views, while hiking trails start right from the base area. You’ll also find the alpine slide, mountain coaster, and a variety of base area activities that make this a great setup for both adventure-focused trips and more relaxed mountain stays. Twilight Lake offers a quieter place to unwind with paddleboarding or time by the water, and off-road tours give you access to even more of the surrounding terrain.
If you’re planning a bigger adventure, this also works well as a basecamp for Colorado Trail segments or bikepacking trips, with easy access to high-alpine terrain and long-distance routes.
After a full day outside, come back, drop your gear, and settle in. The space is cozy without feeling crowded, with San Juan mountain views, a wood-burning fireplace, and just enough character from the retro ski touches to make it feel like a true mountain stay.
Why guests book this place: • 2–3 minute walk to Purgatory base area and lifts • Easy access to Bike Park (summer 2025 reopening) • Great base for Colorado Trail rides and bikepacking trips • Mountain views in a quiet setting just above the village • Wood-burning fireplace for cool mountain evenings • Two parking passes included
The condo is spread across two levels, giving you room to gather and space to unwind.
• 2 bedrooms • 2 full bathrooms (one on each level) • Sleeps up to 6 guests • Located in the East Rim Complex
The main living area is designed for relaxing after time outside, with comfortable seating, mountain views, and a wood-burning fireplace. The kitchen and dining area flow easily for simple meals, morning coffee, or winding down at night. A retro spiral staircase connects the levels and adds a bit of character while keeping the layout functional.
The kitchen is stocked for real use, not just basics. You’ll have a coffee maker, kettle, toaster, cookware, bakeware, crockpot, dishwasher, microwave, Brita pitcher, and a selection of spices, coffee, tea, and cocoa.
For longer stays or active days, a washer and dryer with detergent are provided. Both bathrooms are fully stocked with shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand soap, and lotion so you can travel light and stay comfortable.
Additional features include a gas grill on the deck, two smart TVs, one TV with a collection of VHS and DVDs, Wi-Fi, and board games for unplugged evenings.
You’re located in the East Rim Complex, just above the main base area. You can walk to the Purgatory Express lift, bike park access, and village dining in just a few minutes. It’s close to everything during the day, but quiet and tucked away once you’re inside.
Two parking passes are included, and entry is self check-in for an easy arrival.
