Cozy & Perfect Location

A beautifully remodeled historic home with loads of charm and an absolutely perfect location. 50 feet to the free shuttle stop, a block to the Nordic Center, two blocks to Elk Avenue and close to Clark's Market, which is your grocery store in CB. We stayed for 9 days in ski season. The woodstock was a nice touch. Highly recommended.

Charming historic cabin

Our family of 3 plus our dog had a lovely stay at this property. It was even nicer than expected from the pictures. Well stocked and excellent location in town. The enclosed backyard was great for our pup. We really enjoyed it!

Great Place to Stay in Town

Great house to share with another couple or a couple of family members. We loved how close it was to town! The kitchen and living space was great. Unfortunately the weather wasn't great so we didn't get to enjoy the nice backyard.

Cute, cozy and well-appointed cabin!

We loved our stay. Karla’s Cottage is close to downtown, comfy and cozy. We enjoyed the views from the upstairs bedroom, the open floor plan in the kitchen/family room, and the fenced in yard for our dog. The wood burning stove was a big plus. We will be back!

Quaint cabin-style house within walking distance to town center

Very nice cabin, thoughtfully outfitted and very clean. Nice outdoor space to relax and chill with the dog. Only negative was a mattress in the downstairs bedroom that should be replaced.

Perfect house for our family ski trip

This house was well located, close to downtown and the bus route. It was well stocked with the basics (detergent, fire wood, stuff for cooking, etc). Our only complaint was the lack of a kitchen table. The bar sits four, but if you have more people than that, someone is standing or sitting on the couch. We'd definitely stay here again.

Awesome house! Great location!

Awesome house right off Elk ave. Had a rustic mountain cabin feel and very cozy after a long day on the slopes. House was very close to the shuttle pick up and had parking for our rent car. We were able to walk to all the restaurants and coffee shops. The only thing that would make this house even more amazing would be a hot tub on the patio. A+ rental. Highly recommend.

Awesome cabin. Parked our truck out front and never used it. Walked to dinner and hiking. Adorable cottage that is perfect for our small family. Especially loved having a fire all week in the cast iron stove. Clean, well appointed ….can’t wait to come back. Thank you so much!!

Fantastic Spring Break

My husband, 5 year old daughter and I had a great spring break at Karla's Cottage (oh and border collie!). It was the perfect size for our little family. Near everything on foot. Fabulous little play space with toys and games for the kiddo. Nice backyard space for the dog. We visit CB all the time, and this space was just perfect what what we needed for the week. We'd definitely stay here again. Thank you!

Great, cozy spot! Just a couple notes

Great spot! Easy access to Mt. Crested Butte via free shuttle, and super close to town. The only *notes* I have is that the downstairs shower water temperature was inconsistent (warm and then dropped quickly to super cold), and the backyard had about 5 feet of snow, which completely covered any area for dogs to run around. There was a thin path about 2 feet wide shoveled to the back shed, but again, not really a yard for dogs, which was a bummer for our pup. Lovely place otherwise, just don’t expect much of a yard in the winter months.

Wonderful Return to the Butte

Spent a long weekend at this property in Crested Butte and it was wonderful! Property is beautiful. Loved reading about history of the property and it's remodel. The owners have taken great care of the property and the yard. The fenced in yard was a HUGE plus especially with pups. It was super refreshing to stay at a property that anticipates pups and their needs (poop bags, dog blankets, etc). We had a great time and would love to come back. Only word of advice, if you have real small kiddos (crawling, just starting to walk type), bring a baby gate to prevent them from going up to the loft unsupervised. The loft albeit super nice is high :)

Better than advertised!

We loved our stay in this historic, but renovated, home. As my wife commented, every design was thought about and done with care. The use of historic wood and bricks from the original building gave it a rustic feel, but the modern appliances and jetted tub added a luxurious element. The bed in the master bedroom was comfortable which is important when you are in your sixties. The outdoor deck and fenced yard meant our dog could do her business without a neighborhood walk, although I took her to the off leash area near the school. We also took advantage of the warm days to sun ourselves on the back deck. Loved and will return!!
