Summary:
3 Bedroom, 2 full bath historic home with a perfect location in the heart of Crested Butte. Pet friendly!
The Space:
This historic 1800s mining cabin is perfectly situated right in the heart of Crested Butte, just one block from restaurants, shopping and the free shuttle to the ski area. It's an inviting log cabin, with lots of character and good sunlight. Hiking and biking trails are steps away. This home has three bedrooms, two full baths (one with Jacuzzi tub). This cozy, comfortable home offers the perfect place for friends and family to gather.
The sunny kitchen has granite counter-tops, a gas cook-top, microwave, and dishwasher. The kitchen flows into a cozy living room with vaulted ceiling, maple floors, and gas log fireplace. French doors open to a south-facing deck, fenced yard, and a fantastic wildflower garden... with great town and mountain views.
The log addition includes two charming rustic main floor bedrooms, a full bath, and a large mudroom with washer and dryer. The mudroom is great place for all your skis or bikes.

Perfect location, beautiful house!
The Wild Iris was such a cool place to stay right in town. The location was perfect for walking downtown to shop and/or dine out. The house was a blend of historic and modern and very comfortable for our entire family.

Glad you enjoyed yourselves!!! Come back and see us again!
Our family enjoyed a lovely stay at the Wild Iris for Christmas. The cabin was quaint and cozy and made for a memorable winter visit to Crested Butte. Communication with management was fast and friendly and the home was well appointed and very convenient to Elk Avenue, Clark’s and many other restaurants, etc… Thank you for your hospitality!
Homey, comfortable, nice open living space, walk to everything. We were here for 5 weeks with two little kids. This place was perfect. We miss it already.

So happy to hear you loved our little slice of paradise!!! Come back again!!
Well appointed place, walking distance to all the downtown fun! Parking a little tricky, signs confusing;) Our friends got a ticket despite following instructions but was able to
We thoroughly enjoyed walking our dog everyday in the neighborhood and walking along Elk St just 1 block away. The home was warm and sunny with efficient water pressure etc. Also, the mudroom entrance is super convenient.
