Ski Trip Success

The location of the property is incredible with walkable access to Elk Ave and all the associated amenities. The property is in great shape and is incredibly cute for a mountain getaway. I’d certainly recommend anyone stay here if they’d like a nice stay in Crested!

Property was as advertised. Ideally located close to main strip in CB (Elk Ave) where we pretty much walked everywhere. House was clean upon arrival. Communication with owners was easy and punctual. Very happy with the stay. Will book again. Thank you for the positive experience

Great first time visit to CB!

We loved our stay at the charming B side- it was the perfect mix of artsy meets mountain decor, and the entire process from booking until check out was super easy! They were very accommodating hosts, personally reaching out to ensure all of our needs were met during our stay. Thanks for a great getaway!

Great location

The location of the place was great! Easy to walk downtown. For a relatively expensive place, the maintenance seemed lacking: lights out in the bathroom; skimpy towels; the freezer drawer was frozen shut; no paper towels in the kitchen. The owner addressed some of these problems when we reported them.

Fell a little short of expectations

Pro: Great location. Walkable to elk Ave (main street for all shopping, bars, restaurants, etc) and to hiking trails (woods trail, lower loop). Cons: It's a duplex, not in the listing. Patio shares with attachment.The view is of an alley or your neighbor's backyard. Don't plan on showering for more than 2 minutes if you have multiple people in the house (we had 5) as the hot water will run out. Upon arrival, no wi-fi. Turns out the modem was not properly installed so if you plan on working while on vacation just be prepared. Washer/Dryer: stack unit, dryer was broken on arrival so owner replaced on our last day and set off the smoke alarm when in use (according to neighbors, this is a regular occurrence). Cleanliness: not good. Kids feet were black first day in the duplex. Rugs were not vacuumed. We had family staying at different houses that paid less and had much better accomodations. This is a $250/nt. at most rental.

Great location and beautiful property

Our son got married in CB. The B side is in a great location to get all around CB on foot. The home is renovated beautifully and comfortably furnished. We enjoyed the indoor and outdoor spaces. The only downside is there are no screens on the windows, and it is a must to sleep with the windows open in Colorado as homes don’t have a/c. Other than that the place is fantastic and Kristin was great to work with throughout the entire booking and stay!

Charming home in perfect Location!

We stayed for a long ski weekend with extended family. This is one of the nicer places we’ve stayed in town…the kitchen was well equipped for eating in, but you can walk anywhere in town no need to drive anywhere! The bus stop to ski is also only a couple of blocks away. We really enjoyed our stay here!

Great place in town

Amazing stay in crested butte. First time there and my stay couldn’t have been any better. The owners were beyond helpful with anything and great communicators. Place was very nice and listing is accurate. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. It was just my son and I, but I think up to 6 people could stay comfortably.

Fall Getaway

I absolutely loved my stay at this property and hope to be back many times over the next four years while my son is attending Western Colorado University. The proximity to downtown Crested Butte restaurants and shops was exactly what I was looking for and it was so great to be able to bring our small dog, Oscar, along to spend some time with us. The house is well equipped, beds are super comfortable and the decor is stylish. I was very sad to leave this adorable mountain retreat and look forward to my return trip!

Magical wedding weekend!

We absolutely loved the B-side! We celebrated our wedding in Crested Butte and knew we wanted a location that was extremely walkable to town but also nestled in a quiet neighborhood… the B-side was, indeed, both! Charming, cozy while spacious, it was IDEAL for our most beloved wedding trip. THANK YOU!!!

Adorable home in fantastic location

We were here in the summer with our 2 kids ages 13 and 16. This is an impeccably clean, comfortable home perfect for family in an incredible location. It's easy to walk a few blocks to the main street in Crested Butte with shops and restaurants. We were there a week and didn't cook at all but the kitchen and pantry were very well stocked. There is a picnic table and 4 lounge chairs outside perfect for enjoying the gorgeous weather. There were a few small glitches but Kristin took excellent care of us. She is easy to communicate with and very responsive. We would stay here agin in a heartbeat. Thank you, Kristin!!

Great property for three couples

Really accurate listing about amenities and a fantastic space for three couples and one dog. After some frantic moments realizing automatic information wasn’t sent to unlock keypad, and a few harries exchanges, we were able to connect and the stay was terrific. Thanks for quick replies to our harried messages! Loved our stay.

Location! Charm! And dog-friendly!

We had a wonderful week in Crested Butte at the B-Side Bungalow! The property is located in the charming historic district of town--an easy walk to stores and restaurants. All of the living spaces were updated and very clean, but cozy--complete with a well-organized kitchen with stainless appliances and all of the tools any gourmet cook would appreciate. The owner had a binder with recommendations of things to do and places to go in Crested Butte which was very helpful!

About the host

Hosted by Kristin Flewelling

Welcome to B Side! Our home away from home in the stunning Colorado Rocky Mountains.
Crested Butte is known as “the last great Colorado ski town” and we could not agree more.
We love the winters here spent on the mountain. Skiing with our girls from lift open to close. Grabbing hot chocolate and popcorn at Montanya after a day on the slopes, followed by fried chicken and chutney at Slogar.
In the summer we love early morning coffee at Townie Books and spending the days among the Aspen Trees, hiking or mountain biking.
Evenings are for Secret Stash and laughter with cousins. Games of Mexican Train and Skip-Bo and a walk to Totem Pole Park.
When Matt is in the valley he uses every chance he can to throw a line in one of the crystal mountain lakes or rivers.
We love to SUP and canoe at Irwin with cousins and have long leisurely dinner with family and friends at Sunflower.

We purchased B Side Bungalow in October 2019 with a long term vision of spending full summers here as our girls grow older. In the meantime, we hope you love staying at our home away from home and find the charm and memories of this last great ski town on your hearts forever.
Cheers!
Kristin and Matt

Why they chose this property

You simply will not find a better location! We are on a quiet ally with log term local residents. Walk one direction and you are on second ave two blocks from Elk. The other direction dumps you at the bridge over Coal Creek and Totem Pole Park!
