Very satisfied in all respects

This is an excellent value and we were very pleased. The unit is in a condo building. It's a very short walk to the West Wall lift, and from there you can access the whole Crested Butte ski mountain. If you prefer to go to the main base, there is a free local shuttle that stops just across the side street (the condo is on a corner). The unit was very well equipped; far better than most. The owner is his own property manager. He was very responsive and communication (when needed) was prompt. We liked that the unit had a real wood-burning fireplace. The owner was excellent in not only restaurant suggestions, but also in advising to do your main grocery shopping in Gunnison, before you do the last bit of drive to Crested Butte. There is a grocery in CB and an Ace Hardware, but both are expensive. Great for pick-up things while in CB, but do your main shopping in Gunnison. Because this unit has a real fireplace, pick up a box of pressed logs (like DuraFlame) and a few bundles of firewood in Gunnision too, rather than buying in CB. That being said, the town of Crested Butte is really great to experience. It's a 5 minute drive from Mount Crested Butte (where the skiing and condo are) in your own car, or you can take the free bus shuttles.

Close to ski lift

My husband and I had a great stay, the condo is perfect size and great location. Easy drive, about 5-10 minutes, down the hill to town. We rented snowshoes and went for a hike at the end of Gothic rd which was so close and easy to get to. Will definitely be back! Thanks Ray

Great Condo

This is a great place to stay while visiting Crested Butte. It is located on the hill in Mt. Crested Butte just off the paved trail into town. We spent 4th of July weekend here, the location is perfect for viewing the fireworks coming off the side of the mountain. The condo is clean and comfortable. We would stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Ray Casey

Host profile image
Raised in Canada, schooled in Florida, lived in North Carolina, Maryland, Florida and currently reside in Texas. BUT always wanted an all-season mountain retreat. We never could find the perfect place - until we found CB!

Colorado is just awesome and we decided to shoot our first album cover in Crested Butte because it is truly one of the most beautiful places in the world. CB is a place where time has stood still. it's almost unreal how helpful, friendly and honest everyone you meet is. It's a place where you can still leave your front door unlocked without concern. It's amazing and reminds me of my homeland growing up - we never locked our doors either.

Why they chose this property

Being from Canada I appreciate the great outdoors. Texas in the summer is like living on the face of the sun! Winters are unsatisfying. Having traveled extensively all over the world we always kept an eye open for a mountain paradise. We found that in Mt. Crested Butte. CB is stunning! Quite simply, the most beautiful area we've ever seen. Breath-taking mountain vistas, world class hiking & biking trails, phenomenal restaurants, bright sunny days, warm friendly locals, and crisp cuddle-worthy nights all added up to our little slice of heaven that we'd like to share with YOU!

What makes this property unique

Let's face it, we were attracted to the ability to walk to the ski lift from our condo. Once summer came we realized the proximity to Crested Butte Mountain Resort base village was of similar benefit in the summer. We walk over to the lifts that carry our mountain bikes uphill and our visitors on sightseeing adventures. Terrific walking trails are right out back as well. A Robert Trent Jones designed golf course is nearby as are Ziplines, horseback rides, white-water rafting, rock climbing, orienteering, and much more.

I must confess that I hate driving and having to search for a parking spot. And when on vacation I don't want to have to worry about drinking and driving which is why we love the free shuttle bus that runs year-round from our front door to downtown CB. Even though it's only 2 miles I enjoy not having to drive. CB is unique in that you really don't need a car. The shuttle runs every 15 minutes (in winter) and goes everywhere you NEED to go. Coming from Dallas where were drive EVERYWHERE, this is a treat!
And, Not to put too fine a point on it but this is different than any other mountain town I've been to, in that the locals and tourists coexist on the same plane and actually seem to enjoy each others company without indifference or resentment. It could just be the weed but in any case, it's very refreshing.
