Additional dogs require prior approval. Yard & Fence: Direct access via an XL dog door into a fenced yard. (Note: Small dogs can fit between the 4” gaps along the deck edge designed for snow removal, so please monitor small pets closely).

Local Host: Local owner with over 15 years of Crested Butte experience, available whenever you need recommendations or assistance. Note on Sound: The home is set back off Hwy 135 with a natural berm and vegetation buffer. Newly installed insulated windows keep the interior quiet and serene (feel free to check guest reviews regarding interior sound level). Winter Stay Guidance & Safety Winter in Crested Butte is pure magic, but mountain conditions require a bit of preparation and flexibility: Travel & Roads: Driveways and mountain passes (like Monarch Pass) can freeze quickly or close during storms. Flight delays into local airports are common, so flexible travel plans (and trip insurance) are highly recommended. Snow Removal: We contract with a high-volume plowing service. Plowing schedules vary during big storms (arriving as early as 5 AM or taking extra time to catch up after heavy snowfall). Snow berms may form at the end of the driveway, and you may need to shovel around your vehicle. Please do not block the plow crew. Property Hazards: Deck access may be restricted during periods of exceptionally heavy snow. Roof snow and ice shed naturally—always watch above when walking near eaves. Steep Embankment Warning: Do NOT attempt to walk or ski down the steep embankment to the fields below. This area is extremely prone to dangerous avalanches.

The house is charming! We loved the huge living room with sunset and sunrise views while relaxing before starting and ending our days. Beds were super comfy and the house had everything we needed. Would definitely book again! Super close to down and all of our hiking expeditions as well.
Wonderful stay! Breathtaking views, well equipped, and super pet-friendly! The host was very helpful but not at all intrusive. I'm already thinking about when I can return. :)
Excellent property! Everything was clean, cozy, and perfectly described in the listing. Being so close to the ski resort made our trip seamless. The host was very communicative and quick to respond to any needs. We would definitely stay here again!
Gorgeous views off the back porch. Our group of four had a very comfortable stay, with plenty of space to go around including for the dog. Very accommodating for pets, with fenced in yard, dog door, and beds. Cozy fires with the wood store, spacious kitchen for cooking, easy access to town XC ski trails. Satisfied with our stay all around.
The property was very nice and clean, The host is pet friendly even had a doggy door installed. The back deck has a great view of the mountains. The sun set is breath taking from the patio. The dog trail behind the school leads back to the home.

Thanks again for visiting. Glad you enjoyed your stay even though the snow conditions weren’t great. Happy New Year!
We had such a wonderful stay at The Overlook. The large porch overlooking Mount Crested Butte is simply breathtaking — the views are unbeatable and made the whole experience feel so special. Inside, the house was cozy, clean, and very comfortable. The fireplace worked beautifully and made for perfect winter evenings. The kitchen was thoughtfully stocked and had everything we needed to prepare meals. Everything was exactly as described, and we truly have no complaints. We would absolutely love to return!

Heartwarming review! That is also how my experiences are have been at the house and hope others feel the same way. Thank you for putting it into words.
Amazing views and nice easy walk into town. Had a couple of small issues and Chad was very responsive to get them fixed. Had a very nice relaxing stay!
Great location, really close to town, clean house and responsive owner. The views are incredible and the yard is friendly for larger dogs. Would love to stay again!

Mike,
Thank you for your review, I really do appreciate it. The deck and yard was really built for the dogs to have a great vacation. I am glad it met your expectations. Please do come back when it is convenient.
Best Regards,
Chad
We had a great time staying here during our vacation. The incredible views all the way around the house are amazing. It worked out well for us being just right outside of Crested Butte. We are definitely planning on staying again!
We knew Gunnison would be booked and love Crested Butte. We were absolutely delighted. They worked with us on our dogs joining us for the trip. It was a fantastic stay.
Communication was great and the check-in process was easy. The house is as advertised with all the amenities we needed. The backyard and view was just breathtaking!!! We were so happy with our trip and would stay there again in a heartbeat!
This was our second time to stay at the Overlook. We really enjoyed our stay. The views are incredible. The wood burning stove is so nice and the proximity to the town and Mt. Crested butte is perfect. Also our dog likes the big doggie door and fancy dog bed.

Thank you for coming back for a second visit. I am pretty sure we will see you again. I appreciate the review!
We had a short but sweet weekend getaway. The property is amazing. The trail behind the house was perfect for the dogs! Amazing views, would love to visit again!
I don't believe I could find a nicer place, the views from Chad's home were amazing you can watch the elk and checkout the beautiful mountain view all day long. Backyard was perfect for our pup. Plenty of firewood for wood burner and firepit. The house came with everything we needed and was very roomy. I'm hoping to return.
