About this property
Sissa's Chalet | Gondola Views | Stargaze From the Hot Tub! | Unique Property
This unique family home is within walking distance of the Base Area, and just a stone's throw from the nearest ski in/ski out slope. This gorgeous stand alone home is one of just a few dozen located beneath the path of the gondola in Steamboat Springs. While staying at Sissa's Chalet, you have the option to either walk approximately 75 yards to the snow's edge or simply schedule our winter shuttle service to pick you up. When the first gondola car rolls overhead you know it's time to get down to the base and claim one for yourself. Ski hard all day in powder filled Steamboat Springs and return home to the amenity filled Sissa's Chalet.
This historical ski chalet is bursting with character and charm. Start the day with a little morning coffee on the deck while watching the suns rays across the Yampa Valley, and on the gorgeous Flattop Mountains in the distance. As the Gondola cars gently sweep up the hillside, make your way to the mountain for first dibs on some of that legendary Steamboat Champagne Powder. At Sissa's Chalet it's easy to ski home for a quick lunch or apres ski drink since you're so close to the slopes! When you've enjoyed enough turns for the day, you'll love being the envy of other skiers as you head home to your own little haven on the mountain.
As the evening draws in, cozy up in the downstairs lounge and catch a movie on the flat screen TV, chat with your group in front of the wood burning stove style fireplace, soak in the private hot tub, or wrap up in a blanket and tip-toe out to the deck to see if you can spot any wildlife quietly passing by. Ready to turn in for the night? Head into one of the four plush bedrooms spanning three floors. You'll find a Queen Suite on the entry level with a full ensuite bathroom. Head to the main level for the bunk room featuring a Twin over Twin bunk bed with a Twin trundle, and head across the hall for the King bedroom with a shared bathroom with hallway access. Ready to see something special? Head upstairs to the upper level King Primary Suite featuring a gas fireplace, sweeping panoramic mountain views, and a private living area. This King Primary Suite encompasses the entire floor and has a spacious ensuite bathroom with a jetted bathtub and stand up shower. Enjoy your privacy and space in this unique Suite!
Sleeping Arrangements: King in the upper level Primary Suite, King in the second bedroom on the main level, Twin over Twin bunk bed with Twin trundle in the main level bunk room, and Queen in the entry level suite. Sleeps up to nine guests.

This was a great place for our family of 8 for 6 days. We had plenty of space, the rooms were comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. Having the boot dryers and storage in the heated garage was convenient. We enjoyed the roomy hot tub several nights too. Toward the end of our stay it was hot outside and it became a little warm inside during the day, but there were plenty of fans, humidifiers and little air coolers in every bedroom. Thank you for the wonderful home base - close to everything! We loved our stay here.

Great house for big family
The house had everything we needed for our stay. It was very comfortable and had plenty of room for our family of 7. We usually stay at ski in/ski out places, but the free shuttle was super easy, very quick response and ended up adding quite a value to our trip experience. They were at our house for pickup within about 4-5 min and drove us down to the base. It was very easy and comfortable. They also took us around tow for groceries, stores? And the downtown area.

So great to hear! Really pleased you enjoyed our shuttle. It is the handiest way to get around all of Steamboat. We do hope you'll join us again!
House is a three story which works great for families or couples traveling together - allows individual space! The house is an older home with some recent cosmetic upgrades. Shuttle service was awesome!!- we shuttled to the ski base every morning-( did not use any ski access trails- bit of a walk and from above some looked less ski and more walk. Bedding comfortable and I loved that the kitchen had a gas stove!!! Washer and dryer on the first level was handy. Hot tub was a nice touch for the end of day relaxation! No problems encountered!
Loved our stay! Perfect spot and comfortable for 8 people!

Great stay!
Everything was perfect! The coordination and communication regarding the rental were seamless, and the home's location was fantastic! We rented Sissa's Chalet and found it very comfortable and well-equipped for our party of 6. Loved every minute.
Beautiful views and perfect for family with kids. We loved being able to have top floor for peace and quiet while kids occupied the rest of the house.

Prime Location!
Great house on the mountain! Three levels with multiple common areas made this a great option for our group. We loved the hot tub and views from the deck on the main level. We were here for the gravel race, and loved having a garage for our bikes! Would definitely come back!
The house is in a great location. A very short walk to ski in / ski out (less than five minutes). Great view from the upstairs. We had a couple of maintenance issues and the repair person was at the house within an hour (and very quickly fixed the problems). We would definitely stay in the house again.

Loved it!!
Very nice house, close to the slopes & ski resort. With having kids in our group the shuttle was awesome. Private hot tub was great with us having a big group! Dishwasher works but needs to be fixed, it’s not attached to the cabinet. Would definitely stay again!

Great location; great house!
Great accommodations for two families: four adults + five kids. Literally walked across the street for slope access. Downstairs amenities including the racks, boot dryers, and cubbies were a plus. Would definitely go back. Thanks!

Family Ski Trip
The lodging company bent over backwards to take care of our group. They were flexible and checked on us throughout our week. The chalet was incredible! We had three families and it aloud each of us to have our own floor. We had everything we needed at all times. The hot tub outside in the snow was amazing. If you have a large group and want fantastic accommodations I recommend Sissa's Chalet!

Above Average
Peggy, Jill, Sam, and the team went above and beyond to accommodate us. We are in the hospitality business ourselves and respect the difficulty in finding enough help to run such a business. You are doing great. Hoping to see you again next year.
We stayed for four nights at Sissa's Chalet and had a wonderful time. This was our first time visiting Steamboat Springs and the home is in great proximity to the downtown area, has beautiful views (especially from the king suite), and the hot tub was awesome! We had a few items we needed help with and every time we reached out to the property management company they were beyond helpful. They definitely went the extra mile and made the trip so much better. I would say the house is outdated for us but the management company alone would be the reason we would come back!

Perfect Stay
The sunsets from the porch are AMAZING. That was my favorite part. The house is very cozy and comfortable. It's summer so it was a little hot but the management company had fans going when we arrived and that helped a lot. The kitchen had everything we needed. I'd love to come back during the winter. I bet the views from the upper level master are amazing when snow is on the trees. Overall it was a 10/10 stay!

Property needs upgrade
This is a dated property and needs an upgrade. It was unpriced compared to other properties in the area. Rightly so.
Property management did a great job. Shuttle service was fantastic. Minimal wait time.
Not sure if we will return here. Our reservation was late and availability greatly reduced.
The property location was great for access to the ski resort. It is a single-family home in a sea of condos, which makes it easy to locate. The house had a private driveway with plenty of parking.
The only reason I did not give the home 5 stars was due to the lack of kitchen amenities. The kitchen tools were limited and not conducive to cooking for more than 4 people (number and size of the pots/pans). We ended up buying some casserole dishes from Safeway and improvised to get buy.

Hi Nora,
Thank you so much for providing us with your feedback. We have let the owner know about the cookware situation and they are in the process of addressing it.
Best Regards,
The Retreatia Team
The house itself was amazing… There were plenty of room for all the guests… We had adults and children, and with the three floors there was plenty of room… We cook dinners at the house, and there was plenty of room for everyone… It was a little bit of a walk over to the ski resort but once we figured out how to use the free shuttle, it was awesome… The shuttle will come pick you up and take you to town, to dinner, Two and from the ski resort… It was great. The only issue we had was the driveway was extremely icy and it took a day or two for them to come and clear it… We had a problem getting our car up and down the driveway… The owners were quick to send over some buckets of salt… Overall, this place was amazing and we would definitely stay again

My wife & I with our 2 daughters and husbands and 5 grandchildren stayed at Kristen Chalet...the perfect house for our needs! Our oldest daughter and husband and their youngest son occupied the downstairs level, which would be considered the "family room" with a gorgeous moss rock fire place, bath and laundry room.
Level 2 was occupied by my wife and me. The "living room" dining/kitchen area was perfect and we were able to go outside onto the deck which was the length of the house, overlooking the beautiful scenery. It also had a bathroom and 2 bedrooms, one with a bunk bed and the other with a queen size bed. Our oldest granddaughter opted to stay in the bunk bed.
The 3rd level was the "master suite" and our youngest daughter and husband stayed there as they have a 2 year old and 6 month old twins. This house was the perfect arrangement for all of us. We could be together when we wanted to and yet had our own separate get-away when needed.
The house is beautiful, country/rustic décor, super clean and supplied with everything we could've asked for, except for the groceries we brought with us. The only little glitch was that we couldn't get the TV's to work...we called the maintenance people and someone came to our rescue within the hour...needless to say, it was "operator error" but the gentleman was very nice and couldn't have been more accommodating. We are hoping to stay here again next year and make this an annual trip.
We Highly recommend this home as a home-away-from home.
