SHARED PLAZA AMENITIES (all Plaza guests):

✔ Pool table in the lobby hangout

✔ Tennis and pickleball courts with mountain views

✔ Parking: two covered spaces assigned to the unit at The Plaza

✔ Elevator access



3 PROS:

✔ The 3-minute walk to the lifts really is 3 minutes — we've timed it in ski boots.

✔ Indoor pool table + sauna + steam room make rest days easy with kids.

✔ Tennis and pickleball on-site is rare at this price point.



2 CONS:

✔ No A/C — rarely needed at 9,400 ft, but south-facing rooms warm up midday. Ceiling fans + 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 ($10/night, max $80).



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.



Shared Plaza amenities available to all Plaza guests:

- Pool table in the lobby hangout space

- Tennis and pickleball courts with mountain views

- Parking: two covered spaces assigned to the unit at The Plaza



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: two covered spaces assigned to the unit at The Plaza
