Perched just above Lift 1 with the gondola a few steps from the door, this house puts Telluride's slopes and Mountain Village right at your feet. The living area earns its keep – a fireplace, sweeping San Juan Mountain views through expansive windows, and a covered deck where you can sit out and watch the village below whatever the season. Ski storage and elevator access make slope-to-sofa transitions effortless, and the free gondola links Mountain Village to historic downtown Telluride in around twelve minutes on foot.

Home truths

  • We recommend hiring a car for ease of getting around. You have one space in a heated garage included with the home.

  • Ski-in/ski-out access is condition-dependent and cannot be guaranteed – if snow cover is limited early or late in the season, you may need to make your way to the lifts on foot.

  • If you are a light sleeper, bear in mind that snowcat grooming machines can be audible in the early hours during winter.

Local guide


About Telluride

The Rocky Mountains provide some of the best skiing opportunities not just in North America, but in the world, and nowhere is that more obvious than Colorado. And in the summer, the hiking trails can provide just as much activity. Aside from the outdoor activities, Telluride is a great place to experience the charm of the Old West. It has a more casual, unfussy vibe than more famous spots like Aspen, but there are still plenty of elegant dining and drinking options. A must-try is the New Sheridan Historic Bar, which dates back to 1895.
