About this property

Our home feels like a retreat in a town that already feels like being in retreat. It is welcoming, comfortable and laid back. Simple and simply beautiful! The exterior is newly painted. This 1 bedroom/2 bath home with a fully-fenced, lot-sized yard is available to help you make fabulous memories with friends and family. Those memories might also include your loyal canine, if you choose to bring him/her. The open floor plan allows for wonderful sunlight to pour in from the many windows in each room. The 19 double-paned windows and shades are newly replaced, adding to the warmth and intimacy of our home. It sleeps 4 comfortably - queen bed upstairs and new couch with foldout queen memory foam mattress on the main floor. Of course, the full kitchen has a microwave and dishwasher. The house has Wifi. There is a gas grill for your use on one of the 2 decks. There is off-street parking. The summer brings flowers and hummingbirds and feeders and the winters bring snow and more snow. Our greatest hope is that people will come here to connect with the abundance of nature and all the activities available right outside the door, so that upon your return to the stressors of daily life, you can take the calmness of your Crested Butte experience with you. Whether it is hiking, fishing, mountain biking, alpine or Nordic skiing, our location provides easy access. We are, as friends like to say, two blocks from everything that is the "real" Crested Butte. Camp 4 coffee is around the corner, as are the great local shops and restaurants on Elk Avenue, the main street in town. The Crested Butte shuttle will pick you up right out front of the house and take you up to Mt Crested Butte for free! Leave your car behind and enjoy this great town!

Peaceful Cabin in a Fantastic Location

My husband and I traveled from Denver for a long weekend with our dogs. We couldn’t have asked for a better location - located on the main bus route, you can hop on the free bus and be on the slopes in less than 20 minutes but to makes things even better, this place is just a short walk to all the bars and restaurants for after mountain activities. We loved having a space that felt private with its own gated yard for the dogs and a parking space. We would definitely stay again!

Better than we imagined

From the moment we pulled into our parking spot we felt at home. The place was just perfect for the two of us. We had guest over for dinner and it was just perfect. Close to town and to grocery store, made excuses to make the walk. Warm and cozy. Will come back again next year.

3rd Year and still love it!

This was our 3rd year staying here, and we continue to love this spot. PERFECT spot in town, dog friendly and just easy! There is no TV, which we actually enjoy. They have a bird path and humming bird feeders right outside the windows and we so enjoyed watching all the wildlife and birds each day. Will continue to come back every year if we can!

Perfect Stay

A lovely small house in Crested Butte, Colorado

The house was welcoming and well equipped…also filled with art and artistic charm. The garden is beautiful and the steady visits from hummingbirds and other birds were a joy to behold. In all, a truly great place to relax. The absence of a TV was a blessing and allowed us space off the grid. We used the time to cook,chill together and really relax. The hiking was spectacular! We send our thanks, Ron and Sue from NC

Authentic CB all the way.

Certainly! Here's the revised review: --- **Rating: Our stay in Crested Butte was absolutely fantastic! This charming property exceeded our expectations in every way. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the heart of downtown Crested Butte with its delightful shops and restaurants. The neighborhood was peaceful and picturesque, offering stunning views of the surrounding mountains. The house itself was impeccably clean and beautifully decorated, providing a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed to prepare meals, and the living area was comfortable and spacious, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. One of the highlights of our stay was the outdoor space. The patio was a great spot to enjoy our morning coffee while taking in the fresh mountain air. We also appreciated the thoughtful touches throughout the property, such as the ample supply of linens and the convenient parking. The host was responsive and helpful, providing clear instructions for check-in and making sure we had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. We felt well taken care of and would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a perfect mountain retreat in Crested Butte.

I only wish powder days could be guaranteed with our stay but that’s asking too much. This was our second year and we hope to be back again. Our stay was perfect at this property. Everything is well thought out. We celebrated Christmas and were easily able to make merry. Thanks for a great time.

Amazing guest house!

The house was well stocked with everything we needed to enjoy down time and to cook some of our own meals. The location was amazing to walk the town and great for some mountain biking right from the house. I loved that I could walk 2 1/2 blocks to grab an ice cream at 8:30 at night.

Perfect location, lots of sunlight!

This is our second time staying at this property and loved it just as much as the first! In the perfect location in town and our favorite coffee shop. This place doesn’t have a TV which I love and makes for a very relaxing trip. The yard is beautiful and we spent much time reading or eating lunch outside. Lots of windows in the living room which’s makes for lots of sunlight to relax in.

Weekend Celebration & Getaway

We were in town to celebrate our friends who were getting married. The property was perfectly located to downtown and the bus stop. The place was also great for our dog! He loved the backyard and space to play and relax. The house was clean, comfortable, and the perfect size for all three of us!
