CB

To start with the positive, the location was fantastic. We walked everywhere-town, restaurants, grocery store and some hikes. It was still very quiet in spite of the proximity to town. The host checked in and was very responsive. The negatives were first of all, there is not lock or door handle on the outside door. The next door has a lock, so it felt a little safer. The kitchen was renovated and well equipped. The upstairs bathroom was somewhat updated and clean. The bedrooms however, had cobwebs, were dusty and the pillows were so uncomfortable. Flat and hard. I think some new, more comfortable bedding would make a big difference.

Perfect spot in Crested Butte

We had a wonderful stay at Cloud Cottage on Elk. The check-in process was very easy, and the home had everything we needed. We loved how close the home was to the main street. Sasa made sure our stay was enjoyable. We'd love to stay there again!

A great place to stay in Crested Butte

My husband and I enjoyed our stay here. The location was convenient to town, parking was adequate, the place was very clean, and well-appointed. The kitchen is especially nice, for the small amount of cooking we did. Stairs to the upper level are a little steep, but it’s an older home and has a lot of charm. would definitely stay there again.

Elk Ave GEM!!

Everything about our stay was top notch. We had the good fortune of staying while CB was getting dumped on by snow. The cottage just felt that much more magical because of it! Inside the house: VIEWS!; plenty of storage for unpacking your suitcase, an incredible farmhouse-style dining room table for laying it all out while enjoying the views from its big window; heaps of the best, old school board games; the house was perfectly uncluttered and easy to manage; kids loved the bunk bed room. Outside the house: ACCESS, ACCESS, ACCESS! You’re in the prime of CB. Elk Ave. Restaurants, shopping, galleries, hiking trails in the warmer months—all at your fingertips. The 4-way shuttle stop was a 5-7 min walk for little legs (3 young children), but more like 3-5 min for the adults; allotted parking space in the driveway; great area in the backyard to enjoy (when the snow is not towering over everything!) The Host: Sasa is the real deal. She is available when you need her; pulls out all the stops for you; is so warm and friendly; and genuinely invested in your stay—wanting things to be perfect for her guests. WE WILL BE BACK!!!

Perfect downtown location.

There were many updates to this home. The kitchen and living room areas are well suited and updated. The upstairs bathroom could use a few updates. The location is perfect for catching the CB ski bus. Downtown is a quick walk to great shops and restaurants. Sasa was very easy to communicate with and willing to answer any questions. I would book this again.

Excellent!

We loved our stay here. It was perfectly located to walk to the commercial area and farmers' markets, properly masked of course, to walk around the charming town admiring the architecture, and to get to trailheads for terrific hikes. The main floor of the house was delightful, roomy, comfortable, updated kitchen and bathroom, lots of windows. Great for socializing or relaxing quietly. The larger upstairs bedroom was spacious and comfortable. The smaller second floor bedroom was a bit dreary and crowded with a double bed and bunkbeds but of course this allows more people to sleep there. The second floor bathroom was spacious and completely functional though also a bit dreary. Sasa was responsive and charming. We hope to stay there again on our next trip to Crested Butte.

Cloud Cottage Home Away From Home

Beautiful small house located in the heart of Crested Butte, on the east side of downtown. Easy walk to restaurants, shops and trails. Quick drive to excellent hiking. Sasa is so easy to work with and made check-in and check-out seamless. She provides so many nice small touches in the house, including having a fresh bouquet of flowers delivered on day one. Would stay here again in a heartbeat when next visiting Crested Butte,

About the host

Hosted by Sasa Watt

I'm a true local, having grown up in Crested Butte, moved away after high school, and have finally back after 21 years! I've lived all over the US, as well as overseas, but in 2016 I moved back from LA where I was working as an accountant for TV and film. Now I run my new company, Jamie's Jerky, with my father, bringing the world the best Grass Fed Beef Jerky and Turkey Jerky. LA was my home for 7.5 years(never thought I'd say that) and I lived in a great house where I started my first Vacation rental...I am really sad to have left that house, but it was time to move on. The last two years I hosted out of places I was renting, however, in 2018 I am finally a home owner in CB and can create a home I truly care about! I'm super chill and can't wait to share my new home in my old hometown with new people and new faces. Opening my house to new and returning guests brings a smile to my face... hoping you all can feel at home while on your vacation :)

Why they chose this property

Why this property??? Well, because it's in a great location and owned by a local! :) We are the Wildflower capital of Colorado... Join us for the wildflower festival every year mid-July. We also have the best skiing around. Mountain biking started here in Crested Butte and now we have an extensive network of single track trails and an app to track your routes. Plenty of camping and hiking and jeeping and relaxing and running and events and friendly faces!

What makes this property unique

This property is centrally located, being only 1.5 blocks from the bus to take you up to the slopes. And being on the main drag, you only have to walk west to hit all the shops and restaurants in downtown CB. It's 1/4 block to the town park for picnics, jungle gym, and soccer games. Very quiet neighborhood with local families as neighbors.
