About this property

Ouray Penthouse Suite New & Quiet Best 360 Views! Pristine Clean Private Garage

This gorgeous penthouse suite 1000 sq ft + is located on the top third floor of the Ouray Alchemist building in the heart of town. Bi-directional pleated shades offer the excellent combination of breathtaking 360 degree surrounding mountain views with just the right amount of privacy desired. It is the perfect romantic haven for enjoying the numerous activities in the adventurous Ouray area.

There is a 400 sq ft deck that gives you private views of the Chief Ouray Mine, Cascade Falls, the Amphitheater and Twin Peaks. In addition there is a small breakfast balcony facing Main Street with a giant Douglas fir just to the south providing shade and privacy to those who want to see what is going on around town.

The Ouray Alchemist is a long-time project for Curtis and Nancy. Curt has been collecting pharmacy artifacts for many years. The commercial space features a historical collection of pharmacy memorabilia dating back to 350 BC. The collection is a tribute to the history of pharmacy, containing many hand-blown label-under-glass bottles with the original drugs (herbs and roots) with an emphasis toward Colorado pharmacy history (such as the oldest written prescription in Colorado). It is a memorable tribute to pharmacy worth seeing during your stay. Pharmacists Curt and Nancy will do the best to make your visit well worth it. The Ouray Alchemist, what we call our retail area and museum, has been featured on the cover of Bottles and Extras. We also have an article written about us in GV Magazine. This stands for Grand Valley and is mainly distributed around the Grand Junction area. Grand Junction is just a two hour drive from Ouray.

The Ouray Alchemist building is unique to the Ouray area. It was newly built/completed in 2011. Enjoy the whimsical finial portraying the sun, moon and stars. The gargoyles positioned on the four corners of the copper-domed tower by tradition offer "protection and happiness" to those who enjoy this incredible suite. Maximum of two adults. No children. Not available to rent to throw parties/ have events.

This property is in the absolute perfect setting in the middle of downtown Ouray! Miss Nancy was an amazing host and the Suite was absolutely beautiful! I almost hate to put all the glowing things about this Penthouse because I'd love to keep it my secret....but it is absolutely a perfect place! The facility was immaculately clean. It had every item of comfort and use you could imagine, the bed was comfortable and she had extra everything to ensure our comfort! The setting was a dream and having the garage to park in was unheard of which made this stay above "excellent" in every way!

The Best Secret in Ouray

Our hosts spoiled us on the amenities that were thought of to have to use around the apt. Every appliance worked well. Very clean and not overcrowded with items. The air conditioner in great working order. The windows were spotless and there were a lot! The outdoor front balcony was a plus to see the beautiful views. So many other amenities we didn’t get a chance to use. So relaxed and comfy, we hardly left the apt. The hosts gave us the use of their garage for our rental car. It was perfect for what we were looking for and can’t wait to go back and stay at the Alchemist and see Nancy & Curtis.

Best Downtown Ouray Location and Luxury

We stayed 4 nights in this Luxury Condo overlooking the Main Street in Ouray and with unmatched views of the whole valley and all the peaks that surround it. This rental is one of the best imaginable for two people looking to experience Ouray for multiple nights. The owners were awesome and everything was thought of in order to let us enjoy a perfect one of a kind vacation property.

Wonderful Stay

We had a wonderful time in Ouray, CO to celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary and staying here was the icing on top. I would highly recommend this penthouse and we would definitely stay here again. The location is extremely convenient as it is right off the Main strip, and the views are unbelievably beautiful. The home was clean, safe, and had everything we needed (tissues, different pillow options, extra blanket). The host was very amiable and kind to meet us at the very beginning and to give us the 'lay of the land'. We wish we were still in Ouray!

The hosts Nancy and Kurt went out of their way to make our stay extraordinary. She printed out hiking trails for us and there were numerous personal touches including extra kitchen and toiletry supplies. The house was very spacious and comfortable with a great in town location. My favorite part were the amazing views of the spectacular canyon. Thank you.

Clean / Awesome Location

I stayed over the 4th of July weekend with a family member … The location was fantastic … We were able to watch the July 4th parade from the front balcony and the fireworks from the rear deck. Very clean … Very well equipped and stocked with all of the necessaries … Nancy was very informative and nice. I would love to stay there again in the future.

Fabulous penthouse in Ouray

Nancy is a great host. She gave us a tour at check-in covering everything. The garage is a real bonus especially in the wintertime. The place is very well furnished - super comfortable. Amazing views!! Right downtown, easy walking to restaurants and shops. Easy, prompt communication with Nancy. Heated floors in the winter are a hedonistic luxury. We loved the place.

Awesome views !

We have traveled to Ouray since the early 1980"s and sayed at a variety of places. The Ouray Penthouse Suite is by far the best place we have ever stayed. There are magnificent views out of every window. Nancy didn't miss a thing when stocking the suite right down to band aids. A major bonus for me was the garage.We were given a door opener and it was ours for the stay. We are already thinking about our next trip to Ouray. We know where we will stay !

Loved this townhome!!

We've stayed in Ouray several times and this time decided to splurg, WOW. Awesome location, phenomenal views, immaculate and cozy. So glad we stayed here. Laying in bed watching the full moon and snow fall was incredible. Curt went over and above to make sure our stay was wonderful and Nancy was quick to communicate with us. They had everything and more you could need. Definitely will be returning! Highly recommend staying here!! Thank you Nancy and Curt for providing such a wonderful atmosphere for our vacation and the wonderful hospitality. Happy New Year!

About the host

Hosted by Nancy Haggar

Host profile image
Originally from the Midwest Curt and Nancy took different paths to Colorado before meeting in 2002 at Aspen Drug in Aspen CO. Pursuing his long-term dream of having a historic pharmacy collection exhibit led Curt to purchase fixtures to restore from Aspen Drug which was closing. Since all fixtures were for sale, Nancy having worked there over eleven years, was thrown in the deal...well, not really, but it makes a good story. We share a common passion for the history of pharmacy so it made sense that we would get better acquainted as time went by, marrying in 2006. Still married.

Why they chose this property

Ouray is called the Little Switzerland of America because of its unique dramatic alpine beauty. Surrounded by mountains it is the gem of the Rockies. We have never been to a more beautiful place. Curt was already living in Ouray when he met Nancy. There are outdoor activities here and nearby for every season. Skiing is close in Telluride and Silverton as well as Purgatory near Durango. Skiing is one of Nancy's passions. Ouray has inspired us to build this building and live out our dream. On the first floor is our commercial business that we call the Ouray Alchemist. Designed after an 1890's pharmacy with hickory hardwood floors and a tin ceiling, we feature antiques, jewelry, art, minerals, collectible currency and candy. The historic pharmacy museum behind the 1888 fully restored wall fixture is receiving rave reviews. With time there will be other fun things to come, like an old-fashioned soda fountain. Curt gives guided tours at 10 am and 1 pm on most days.

What makes this property unique

This clean comfortable and cozy suite in the heart of town is furnished with modern amenities intermingled with beautiful antiques and art. Make yourself at home! There is not a better view of the mountains anywhere else. Despite being right in the thick of things the large curved windows with the adjustable up or down shades, the large deck and separate balcony give optimum privacy. Snuggle up and sleep with a view of the moon coming up over the Amphitheater.
