The Space:

➔ Bedroom 2: Queen bed.
➔ Bathroom: One full bath with a tub.
➔ Office: A real workspace — standing desk, monitor, mouse, and keyboard.

➔ Outside: Private hot tub with robes and towels, Adirondack chairs on the deck, and a fully fenced backyard.
3 Pros:
+ Private hot tub and a fenced yard for dogs — full dog setup (beds, bowls, blankets, crate) provided.
+ One-minute walk to Main Street; about 25 minutes to Ski Cooper and Copper Mountain.
+ A genuine home office for remote work, plus mountain and lake views.
2 Cons:
- One bathroom for two bedrooms — fine for a couple or a family of four who don't mind sharing.
- No A/C — at 10,152 ft Leadville nights stay cool and it's rarely missed.
Guest Access:
Self check-in by keypad — your code and directions arrive before arrival. The whole house and the fenced yard are yours, plus free parking on-site. Dogs are welcome and travel light: beds, bowls, blankets, and a crate are provided. Check-in 4:00 PM / checkout 10:00 AM.
The Neighborhood:
You're a one-minute walk from Main Street (Harrison Avenue) in downtown Leadville — the highest city in North America at 10,152 ft — with saloons, restaurants, shops, and mining-era history. Turquoise Lake (paddling, fishing, the shoreline trail) is about 12 minutes away, and the Mt. Elbert trailhead — Colorado's highest peak — is about 26 minutes. Ski Cooper and Copper Mountain are roughly 25 minutes; Vail, Breckenridge, and Keystone are 30–50 minutes over the passes. Summer brings 14ers, hiking, and the lake; winter brings skiing and a quiet historic town.
Getting Around:
You can walk to Main Street, but a car is useful for the ski areas, trailheads, and lake. Free parking is on-site. Drive times: about 12 minutes to Turquoise Lake, 25 minutes to Ski Cooper and Copper Mountain, 26 minutes to the Mt. Elbert trailhead, and 30–50 minutes to Vail, Breckenridge, and Keystone over the passes. Winter driving on Highway 24 and the passes can be snowy — allow extra time and check conditions.

It was great but we didn’t realize there would be an apartment below us.

Hi Clay,
Thank you for your feedback,. Just for clarity's sake, the listinghe listing does mention that there’s a separate apartment below — “We're fortunate to have a long-term tenant living in a separate unit on the first floor of the barn. Please be considerate of their privacy. Quiet hours 10pm–8am.” I really appreciate your understanding and hope you had a wonderful stay overall!
The loft had great views, clean and private, with very high end amenities. Easy access to Leadville. Will definitely book again for my next 14er hike.

Hi, Thank you for choosing our unit for your stay during the Leadville Trail 100 race! We're delighted that you found the place beautiful and accurately represented. It's great to hear that the prime location and comfortable stay added to your experience. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back in the future!
Really cute and cozy place in the north side of Leadville. Easy 0.5 mile walk to main street for food, drinks, and melanzana if that’s why you’re in town. Off street parking was nice to keep bikes out of view though Leadville never feels unsafe. Coffee/tea bar was great, house was clean, and property manager was very communicative when needed. Would stay again.

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed the spot and the easy walk to town — and yes, Melanzana is always a good reason to visit! Happy to hear everything was comfy and worked out well. Would love to host you again anytime!
The place was perfect. Clean, up to date and provided everything we needed for our stay. Plus, it even included a kennel and dog bed for our dog. We will definitely be back and stay here again.

Cute, comfortable, clean place with an amazing view of Mount Massive off the back deck. Perfect place to relax and watch the sunset after an active day playing in the high country.

My husband and I had a great time at the "Leadville Dairy". Dog-friendly, well furnished, and clean upper level apartment. Hot-tub was a great bonus.

Hi Kristin, we're glad that you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for your time to leave a review. We hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future.
My husband, I and our dog Charlie were fortunate to getaway for the holiday. We loved our time in Leadville and the house was PERFECT! Plenty of space and well furnished. The bed was exceptionally comfortable. The dog had plenty of room to run and play. The options for tv entertainment were plentiful. It was cold when we stayed; however the house was nice and warm. Unfortunately we never used the hot tub because we had so much to do in and around town. The notes/recommendations were very much appreciated. There wasn’t a microwave but that was ok because we did a lot of cooking. Will definitely stay here again.

Hi Jody, thank you for your time to leave a review. We're looking forward to your come back.
The important things - location, cleanliness, hot water, comfy bed were all excellent. But several little things bring me to a 4/5 rating. The yard was really run down and unlike the Pictures. I would not really want my pup hanging out there. There are now three run down sheds in the yard. The hot tub is under a former carport and the downstairs tenant’s space looks onto the tub. Just not inviting. The decks have terrible furniture (the arm on one of the chairs on the back was fully broken off) and views are interrupted by a roof and power lines. There is a light outside the master bedroom that can’t be turned off and when u need the window open for coolness it makes the room very bright. The management agency offered to come unscrew the lightbulb but that would have inconvenienced us. The door was very difficult to close. And lastly on the last morning 90 min before check out workers arrived to bang on the building with no warning from owner/manager even though we had been texting. Not hard to give a heads up. Having said that it’s good they are getting some work done since the exterior is very run down compared with photos in listing. Do note the unit is upstairs. Pretty sure that wasn’t mentioned when I booked many months ago. Having said all that the place was clean and very close to town and had a decent bed. Not easy to find all that for this price in Leadville.

Thanks so much for the thoughtful feedback. We're really glad you found the place clean, comfortable, and in a great location. Sorry to hear some things didn’t meet your expectations — especially the yard, outdoor furniture, and light outside the bedroom. We're in the middle of making improvements, and your notes are helpful. Also, we totally agree the heads-up about the workers should’ve been better communicated — our apologies for that. Appreciate you staying with us and for taking the time to share your experience!
