About this property

Karla`s Cottage - Fenced in Yard/Dog Friendly & Two Blocks to Downtown!

Located just 2 blocks off Elk Avenue in historic downtown Crested Butte, Karla's Cottage is an adorable two bedroom, two bath cottage ready for your next getaway!  Fully remodeled with lots of charm and a location that can't be beat, this property offers in-town convenience for an out of town price!

Step inside Karla's Cottage and you will immediately feel at home. The property has recently undergone a complete renovation, head to toe, and the layout is ideal for all of your vacation needs. The kitchen, complete with ceramic tiled countertops and stainless steel appliances, opens to the living room with vaulted ceilings, large windows, and a wood burning stove. It's the perfect place to entertain your friends or family after a long day of skiing, biking, or touring the town. On those warm summer days, step right outside to the gorgeous landscaped yard and relax with a book or fire up the grill. It's the ideal place to simply 'be' in Crested Butte!

Cozy & Perfect Location

A beautifully remodeled historic home with loads of charm and an absolutely perfect location. 50 feet to the free shuttle stop, a block to the Nordic Center, two blocks to Elk Avenue and close to Clark's Market, which is your grocery store in CB. We stayed for 9 days in ski season. The woodstock was a nice touch. Highly recommended.

This unassuming little house from the outside is super cozy and comfy on the inside. The backyard is so pretty and peaceful. Location is perfect. Walkable to Elk Ave, no problem. Perfect for our stay this visit.

Great, cozy spot! Just a couple notes

Great spot! Easy access to Mt. Crested Butte via free shuttle, and super close to town. The only *notes* I have is that the downstairs shower water temperature was inconsistent (warm and then dropped quickly to super cold), and the backyard had about 5 feet of snow, which completely covered any area for dogs to run around. There was a thin path about 2 feet wide shoveled to the back shed, but again, not really a yard for dogs, which was a bummer for our pup. Lovely place otherwise, just don’t expect much of a yard in the winter months.

Awesome house! Great location!

Awesome house right off Elk ave. Had a rustic mountain cabin feel and very cozy after a long day on the slopes. House was very close to the shuttle pick up and had parking for our rent car. We were able to walk to all the restaurants and coffee shops. The only thing that would make this house even more amazing would be a hot tub on the patio. A+ rental. Highly recommend.

Great cottage for pets

This is a very comfortable cottage with a lovely fenced yard and a gated front porch, which is perfect for pets. There is also a garden hose which reaches to the back alley for hosing off dogs that rolled in...you know what. We brought crates with us so the dogs wouldn't mess up the white carpet upstairs. There are wood floors downstairs. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. The only downside were the oddly placed steps in the house...I fell three times tripping over the raised floor in the upstairs bedroom (no worries, there is thick carpeting). I would rent this place again. Great location, close to coffee shops and restaurants.

Biking with friends

Great week biking with friends. The place was great for location, fantastic fenced backyard to hang with dog and friends, and garage was a bonus! It is best for 2 couples. It is tight for anyone on the couch. The suite upstairs has an open bathroom with the bedroom, and that is odd. The upstairs carpet makes a Velcro noise when walked on, kinda quirky. We will stay again, but best for one or 2 couples max.

I loved the house and the town of Crested Butte.

I loved the house and the town of Crested Butte. The house is quirky but very comfortable with a great location, and learning about its history was fascinating. As I noted above, I had trouble getting the issues with the TV and wifi fixed, but the team was very friendly and cordial.

The whole house needs a serious vacuum.

The whole house needs a serious vacuum. I did yoga in the living room on my first day and the carpet was so caked with dirt that I decided to lay down a sheet over it. It clearly hasn’t been vacuumed in a long time. The team was really helpful in providing a discounted house rate due to my last minute booking. However, they sounded pretty stressed when I called and they never called me back when they said they would. It was fine because I called back and someone answered. Similarly when I asked about the Wi-Fi I got the response in effect, “There’s nothing we can do about it.” Which seems untrue considering the Wi-Fi at the local cafes is good. Also, you should explain to people who book that the Wi-Fi is not strong enough to work from home. The binder should also explain this.

Rental company makes a killing

We had a booking error that really negatively impacted our trip. Rental company had zero empathy. Keys left on counter for 2 days with property unlocked prior to our check in making us feel unsafe. Playroom smells like urine. Beds were extremely uncomfortable. Otherwise adorable cabin in a great location!

Wonderful

Awesome cabin. Parked our truck out front and never used it. Walked to dinner and hiking. Adorable cottage that is perfect for our small family. Especially loved having a fire all week in the cast iron stove. Clean, well appointed ….can’t wait to come back. Thank you so much!!

Cute, cozy and well-appointed cabin!

We loved our stay. Karla’s Cottage is close to downtown, comfy and cozy. We enjoyed the views from the upstairs bedroom, the open floor plan in the kitchen/family room, and the fenced in yard for our dog. The wood burning stove was a big plus. We will be back!

Great house to share with another couple or a couple of family members. We loved how close it was to town! The kitchen and living space was great. Unfortunately the weather wasn't great so we didn't get to enjoy the nice backyard.
