Escape to this spacious mountain retreat—sleeping 8–10 guests—tucked into the serene woods above Nicholson Lake, perfectly positioned between the town of Crested Butte and the Mount Crested Butte Ski Area. Just 3.5 miles from town and an easy singletrack bike ride away, this home offers the ideal balance of privacy, scenery, and convenience.
Perched on a scenic knoll with the Slate River on one side and Nicholson Lake on the other, the property boasts sweeping mountain views in every direction. Step outside for immediate access to snowshoeing and cross-country ski trails, or head just minutes away to downhill skiing, shops, restaurants, and the welcoming charm of Crested Butte. In warmer months, enjoy paddleboarding on the lake or floating down the river right from the property.
The main house features five bedrooms and four full bathrooms, plus two additional beds and a half bath—perfect for multiple families or larger groups. Gather in the spacious dining room, breakfast nook, or the inviting main living area. The fully equipped kitchen, half bath, laundry room, and mud/gear room provide comfort and convenience. You’ll also enjoy five flat-screen satellite TVs, high-speed internet, a Finnish sauna, and a year-round outdoor hot tub.
The lower level includes additional bedrooms and a second living room with surround-sound TV/DVD—great for kids or a separate hangout space. For added privacy, a charming guest house is available for an additional fee, offering its own queen bedroom, private bath, and efficiency kitchen. Please inquire if it is available for renting.
Summer guests will love the outdoor mini-playground, seasonal screened dining room, and cozy camp-style fire pit perfect for marshmallow roasting. In winter, enjoy included snow-removal service and a one-car garage. The spacious driveway offers plentiful parking year-round—a rare perk compared to in-town or ski-area rentals. (We highly recommend 4WD during winter months.)
This home offers room to spread out, gather, and truly enjoy the mountains—inside and out. Perfect for families, friends, and anyone seeking a peaceful getaway close to everything Crested Butte has to offer.

    The house was perfect for our multi generational family. The location was peaceful and convenient to the ski area.

    Short drive to base area. House was a beautiful piece of construction. We all enjoyed our stay very much. Thanks for a fantastic week in a special ski town with a one of a kind mountain.

    Property as described and Elizabeth was super easy and accommodating to a few special requests. All 5 of us had a comfortable private bedroom. Snow removal was seamless, and location was equidistant from the ski resort and downtown. No public transport options in this area, so AWD rental car is a must.

    Beautiful house and view. E. Smith was easy to communicate with. Kitchen is well stocked. Hot tub and sauna were used almost every night. Very roomy for the nine of us. The only downside to the quiet beautiful lot is that it is 20 minutes from either ski resort or town. The road was plowed and two wheel drive would suffice.

    The house was cosy and comfortable with a great hot tub for relaxing after skiing. Elizabeth was very helpful and responsive to all inquiries. Would love to come back again in both winter and summer.

    Wonderful house to say near crested butte. About a 10 min drive to either town or ski mountain. House was very pleasant with beautiful views, well stocked kitchen, plenty of bedrooms (2 upstairs and 4 in the basement). Communication was excellent with easy check in and check out. Would happily stay here again. We spent plenty of time in the hot tub and you could snowshoe right from the house.
