About this property

The Blue Collar Boutique = Affordable Adventure!

Mountainside Inn is a vestige of affordability and access in one of North America's most prestigious and justifiably stunning ski towns! This "Blue Collar Boutique" option is perfect for the frugal traveler, crafty couple or small family looking to enjoy the best that Telluride has to offer but at a fraction of the price. This corner unit is steps away from a chairlift, hot tubs, bars and bus stops! Experience Telluride at a price that lets you stay an extra day...or 2! Cozy and comfortable meets affordable and ARTISTIC!



The "Blue Collar Boutique" believes that ALL spaces can be creative! This unit has custom art lighting throughout and has everything one needs to enjoy long days skiing on the mountain, summer festival marathons, fall "leaf-looking" and a thousand other adventures that Telluride has to offer. This unit has a queen bed and small couch, walk-in shower, small fridge, microwave, oven range and an assortment of coffees, teas, snacks and cooking utensils. We also provide a few complimentary welcome beers, wine (3 nights or more) and bubble waters! Soak away those mountain adventures in one of two new riverside hot tubs that put the AHHHHHH in every day! 



The "Blue Collar Boutique" is a corner unit on the ground level. There is ample overnight parking steps from your front door. Guests also have access to the property's riverside hot tub for post ski soaks! Mountainside Inn is nestled along the San Miguel River in Telluride's adorable west-side neighborhood. You are steps away from Telluride Ski Resort's Chair 7, the Galloping Goose FREE bus service, THERE BAR (try the Brussel sprout chips!), SIAM Thai food and the Wine Mine Liquor store. A short meander to the east will have you strolling Telluride's historic main street and enjoying a plethora of lively bars, world class cuisine and more! There is a grocery store, liquor store, Thai restaurant and cocktail bar all within 100 yards of the property. The FREE Galloping Goose shuttle runs on the 1/4 hour and there is a bus stop a block from your unit! Enjoy a free ride a few blocks to historic main street and back again!

We had a great time. The place is conveniently located near lift 7 and the gondola, with a short walk to the main street, making it a great option for couples. The beds were comfortable but slightly smaller than expected.

Nice place to stay!

This is a cute spot to stay right in the heart of Telluride. The room is perfect for a couple looking to stay for a few days and take in the sights. The walkability to the creek path was really nice; you can take it right into town.

Nice little place near the water

We really enjoyed the location and liked that the riverwalk was really close. The riverwalk was a perfect way to get around town. We never had to use our car to get anywhere in town. We really enjoyed how close everything was. I would definitely stay in this unit again, it was perfect for two people.

Ski trip

Great place to stay. The apartment is so nice and very clean. There was a welcome message on the board and bottle of wine . The ski lift is only 5 minutes walk and you can ski back straight to the building door. Luke our host was great, he answered all our questions very quickly.

Great Spot for 2 in town for Skiing

Literally could ski from the hill to the door. Chairlift to the main hill was 100 yards away. Free parking and perfect spot for a couple wanting to ski and be out on the town while in telluride.
