About this property

"Wild Iris" Historic Home in downtown CB, Dog Friendly!

Summary:

3 Bedroom, 2 full bath historic home with a perfect location in the heart of Crested Butte. Pet friendly!



The Space:

Stay in a piece of Crested Butte history—right in the heart of town. This charming 1800s mining cabin is just one block from restaurants, shopping and the free shuttle to the ski area, with hiking and biking trails right outside your door. With three bedrooms, two full baths, a Jacuzzi tub, and a fenced yard, it’s a cozy and character-filled home for family and friends—and even your dog.



Full of historic charm and natural light, the cabin combines rustic character with comfortable modern amenities. The sunny kitchen features granite countertops, a gas cooktop, microwave and dishwasher and flows into a warm living room with vaulted ceiling, maple floors and a gas-log fireplace. French doors open onto a south-facing deck, fenced yard and beautiful wildflower garden, with wonderful views of town and the mountains.



The charming log addition includes two rustic main-floor bedrooms and a full bathroom, along with a spacious mudroom with washer and dryer. It’s the perfect spot to store skis, bikes and outdoor gear after a day of exploring. Upstairs, the entire level is dedicated to the spacious primary suite, featuring a queen bed, vaulted ceiling, oak floors, ensuite bath and spectacular views of Mt. Crested Butte. The two main-floor bedrooms include the cozy Fish Room with a queen bed and the Cowboys and Indians Room with two twin beds; these rooms share a full bathroom across the hall. All beds are made with fresh linens and cozy goose-down comforters.



The fully equipped kitchen makes dining at home easy, while the living room offers cable TV/DVD, stereo and broadband Wi-Fi.



Best of all, you can park your car and enjoy Crested Butte on foot. Restaurants, coffee shops, shopping, hiking, biking and Nordic skiing are all just steps away.



Pet friendly: One dog is welcome for an additional pet fee. Please let us know at the time of booking if you’ll be traveling with a dog.



Come settle into the relaxed rhythm of Crested Butte, where mornings can start with coffee on the sunny deck, days are spent exploring the trails and town, and evenings end by the fireplace. With its historic charm, mountain views, private outdoor space and unbeatable location, this cabin is a wonderful home base for experiencing all that Crested Butte has to offer.

No need to post this but wanted to provide feedback to the owners/property management company, especially given the cost of the rental. The location of the property was great and check-in was easy. There are many things that should be replaced or repaired in the house, which was disappointing. Bedding felt old and worn, pillows were very old, flat and smelled bad, one of the twin beds appeared to have dirty/wrinkled sheets so my daughter was afraid to sleep in it. The closet rod in the upstairs bedroom was held up by a piece of string. The iron didn't work at all and the iron board jammed when trying to put it back in the closet - both are very old and should be replaced. Upstairs desk chair was broken... If the owners want to continue renting, especially at a price premium, they need to invest in the house. We were expecting a much better experience.
