PARKING & ACCESS:
✔ Covered garage parking for 2 vehicles — no morning scrape-the-snow
✔ Elevator access from the Plaza lobby
✔ Self check-in via smart lock

SHARED PLAZA AMENITIES (all Plaza guests):
✔ Pool table in the lobby hangout
✔ Tennis and pickleball courts with mountain views
✔ Building lobby with warm-lit gathering area

3 PROS:
✔ The 3-minute walk to the lifts really is 3 minutes — we've timed it in ski boots.
✔ Three King en-suites is a rare configuration — most 3BRs at CBMR base include a bunk room.
✔ Covered garage parking in a ski town is genuinely hard to find — skip the scrape ritual.

CONS:
✔ No A/C — rarely needed at 9,400 ft, but south-facing rooms warm up midday. Open windows handle it.

We do utilize a weblink outside the platform that directs guests to our guidebook. You will receive an email with this link. This is the ONLY way guests can access check-in information, and facilitates the collection of fees and other special requests/upgraded services we offer.
To protect your stay, you'll choose one of two options during online check-in: a $250 refundable security deposit (a temporary card hold, released after checkout) or a small damage waiver($15/night, max $75).

Guest Access:
Full private access to the 3-bedroom condo. Self check-in via smart lock — code sent the morning of arrival. Building has elevator access from the lobby.

Parking:
- Covered garage parking for 2 vehicles, included with the rental — enter the Plaza garage and follow signage for unit 440 parking

Shared Plaza amenities available to all Plaza guests:
- Pool table in the lobby hangout space
- Tennis and pickleball courts with mountain views

The Neighborhood:
You're in Mt. Crested Butte — the base village at the foot of Crested Butte Mountain Resort. The Plaza sits at the center of it: lifts, après-ski restaurants, coffee shops, and gear rentals all within a 5-minute walk.

In summer, the village turns into a mountain biking and hiking hub with chairlift-accessed singletrack and the Wildflower Festival (Crested Butte is Colorado's official Wildflower Capital).

Historic downtown Crested Butte is 3 miles down-valley. Elk Avenue's preserved Victorian main street has the best small-town dining in Colorado — Secret Stash pizza, Sunflower, Soupçon — plus galleries, bars, and a free shuttle from the village so nobody has to drive home.

» 3-min walk ➔ CBMR lifts
» 2-min walk ➔ Mountaineer Square (dining, shops, gear)
» 10-min free bus ➔ Downtown Crested Butte / Elk Avenue
» 15-min drive ➔ Snodgrass & Woods Walk trailheads
» 25-min drive ➔ Kebler Pass (Sep aspens, summer only)

Getting Around:
You don't need a car to ski — walk to the lifts, take the free Mountain Express shuttle downtown. A car helps for trailheads, grocery runs to Clark's Market, and day trips to Kebler Pass.

- Gunnison-Crested Butte Regional Airport (GUC): 35-min drive — seasonal direct flights from Denver, Houston, Dallas
- Denver International (DEN): 4.5-hr drive — shuttle services available (Alpine Express, Dolly's)
- Free Mountain Express shuttle: runs between the village and downtown every 15 min in winter
- Rideshare: Uber/Lyft available but limited, especially late night — shuttle is more reliable
- Winter driving: Hwy 135 is well-maintained; AWD/4WD or chains recommended during storms
- Parking: covered garage for 2 vehicles included — a rare amenity at the CBMR base
