Notes for planning a week on the mountain.
Local guides from the owners: trails from the door, where to eat, the gondola, festivals, and how a full house fits the residence. After you book, we share the instructors, meals, and spots we actually use.
Mountain Village and downtown Telluride
Two great places, each with its own rhythm.
Hiking and biking from the residence
Prospect Trail and Village Trail at the door, plus planning help for your group.
The gondola: hours, seasons, and dinner in town
How the free ride shapes your evenings, and when to confirm dates.
Where to eat from Mountain Village
Village plates, downtown nights, and the meals we send you after you book.
Getting here
Telluride, Montrose, or the drive: a clear path for your group.
Settling in at 9,500 feet
A gentle first day, then the mountain opens up.
Telluride in July, and cool rooms after long days
Summer light, trail days, festival weeks, and air conditioning that matters.
Telluride Film Festival from Mountain Village
A slopeside base with Chuck Jones Cinema nearby.
Bluegrass week from a slopeside penthouse
Festival days in town. Quiet nights on the mountain.
Skiing Telluride with kids
Warm boots, clip in, and the instructors we trust.
A week for nine
How a four-bedroom penthouse fits a full house, ski week or summer.
