About this property

Large open comfortable clean space with fantastic views of mountains.

Welcome to The Overlook 2!
Looking for an affordable, high-value mountain getaway with unbeatable views and a cozy place to unwind? You’ve found it! Part of the beloved Overlook property, this charm-filled 2-bedroom half-duplex offers a private, well-appointed retreat in a prime mountain setting. Freshly updated inside and out, it is the perfect base for your next Crested Butte adventure—whether you’re planning a quick weekend escape or an extended stay!
🌟 Highlights & Features
Incredible Sightlines: Unmatched, panoramic views of the surrounding peaks from your private living area and deck.
Refreshed Interior: Features updated finishes throughout, including a newly remodeled bathroom, fresh flooring, modern appliances, and a cozy wood stove for cool mountain nights.
Prime Outdoor Access: Recreation trails pass right near the property.
Quiet & Comfort: Set back with road berm buffer and fitted with newly installed insulated windows for quiet indoor relaxation. Road noise will be heard from the house.
🐾 Dog-Friendly Details
We love welcoming well-behaved dogs to the mountains! To ensure a seamless stay and cover the extra maintenance and deep cleaning required between stays, please note our pet policy:
Pet Fee: $100 per night pet fee. Additional dogs require prior approval. Please include the number and size of your dogs in your reservation request.
Unfenced Yard & Leash Policy: Unlike a fully fenced lot, this side of the property features an open area near the highway buffer. Dogs must be kept on a leash or under strict, reliable voice control at all times when outdoors.
Neighborhood Courtesy: To protect the experience for guests sharing the duplex, dogs may not be left alone in the duplex.
Clean-Up Required: Guests are required to pick up after their pets immediately to protect the natural grounds and local well water source.
✨ Property Amenities & Extras
Heating: Cozy wood stove plus main household heating.
Security & Convenience: Exterior Ring doorbell at the front entry to assist with check-ins, monitor snow removal, and catch glimpses of local wildlife!
Long-Term Options: Planning an extended stay? Ask us about our monthly rates!
❄️ Winter Stay Guidance & Safety
Winter in Crested Butte is pure magic, but mountain conditions require preparation and flexibility:
Travel & Roads: Driveways and mountain passes (such as Monarch Pass) can freeze quickly or close during storms. Flight delays into regional airports are common, so flexible travel schedules (and trip insurance) are highly recommended.
Snow Removal: We contract with a high-volume plowing service. Schedules vary during major storms (arriving as early as 5 AM or taking time to catch up after heavy accumulation). Snow berms may form at the end of the driveway, and shoveling around your vehicle may be necessary. Please keep driveways clear for plow crews.
Property Hazards: Deck access may be temporarily restricted during heavy snow accumulation until cleared. 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.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Space is beautiful and comfortable. The cleaning crew was scheduled for the wrong day, so I had to put my sheets on and such, but it wasn’t bad and they came the next day. Host also gave a refund for the cleaning fee because of the error so no real harm done. I would absolutely still recommend the property.

Stay at Overlook 2

Decent place to stay and very dog friendly. The road noise is really only an issue outside and the walls inside seem well insulated so we never really heard the neighbors. The kitchen could use some basic supplies that are missing. Chad was easy to communicate with and very responsive.

Why they chose this property

The views are spectacular!

What makes this property unique

The views are unique in that you can't see Whetstone from town and that is my favorite mountain. And the short term rental tax at my place is 8.9% verses much higher in town or in Mt Crested Butte.
