About this property

2 Blocks - Elk Ave | Mountain Sanctuary

  • YOUR MOUNTAIN SANCTUARY



    Named for the historic waterway that shapes our corner of town, this contemporary retreat sits on a quiet, no-through street — serene privacy, yet moments from Elk Avenue. Panoramic windows frame Mt. Emmons (the beloved Red Lady) and Mt. Crested Butte, while Coal Creek provides nature's soundtrack below. Hiking trails, singletrack, and cross-country ski paths start right outside your door.



    MAIN LIVING AREA (SECOND FLOOR)



    - Open great room with golden afternoon light through wraparound windows

    - Well-equipped kitchen with gas range, ample counters, and bar seating

    - Dining and living space surrounded by rustling aspens, with large flat-screen TV and streaming

    - Streamside deck for BBQing while the sunset paints the mountains

    - Full bath serving the loft and living area



    SLEEPING SPACES — SLEEPS 8



    Primary Suite (entry level) — newly renovated:

    - King bed with luxury linens and plush mattress

    - Spa-inspired bath: freestanding soaking tub, curbless glass shower, custom vanity, radiant heated floors



    Bedroom 2 (entry level):

    - Queen bed with premium bedding and private full bath



    Loft Retreat (third floor):

    - Flexible sleeping: queen plus two twins — ideal for kids or groups

    - Separate TV with streaming, mountain views

    - Served by the full bath one floor down on the second level, beside the main living area



    OUTDOOR LIVING



    - Covered porch with Adirondack chairs for morning coffee

    - Private streamside fire pit for evening s'mores

    - Spacious yard backing directly to Coal Creek

    - Front-row seats to wildflowers, golden aspens, or pristine snowfall



    Wake to rushing water, spend days exploring Colorado's last great ski town, curl up with a book in the afternoon sun, and end evenings stargazing by the fire. Here, time slows down just enough to savor Crested Butte.

Our family of six loved our stay at Coal Creek Retreat. The house was spacious and comfortable and could easily accommodate eight people. The beds were very comfortable, and the backyard was a wonderful place to sit and relax. We also loved the open living room and kitchen, which were perfect for family movie nights and card games.

Great location - perfect for a family

We had a lovely stay - our family hiked over and Ted (property manager) and Jim and Jeanine were extremely accommodating and very easy to communicate with. The house is located at the base of Kebler (but the traffic was minimal) and the stream flowing in the backyard was a nice bonus! We enjoyed the fire pit and outdoor space very much! We hope to come back soon!

Great nordic skiing weekend

Our group of several families enjoyed this quiet, well-equipped, modern house for Alley Loop weekend. It's located close to the CB Nordic Center, with very easy access to the road to Lily Lake. Short walk downtown for shopping and dining. Watching the sunrise light up the mountains as we drink our coffee was magical.

Peaceful retreat in downtown CB

We loved our stay at this darling house! It was perfectly appointed, had comfortable beds and sheets, plush towels and a well appointed kitchen. Located on a peaceful street and walking distance to Elk. The hosts and property manager were available for anything that came up. I can’t recommend this home enough. We will definitely be back.

A perfect location for a special celebration

We were honored to be in to celebrate the surprise proposal for my daughter and so grateful I found this listing. The two main bedrooms on entry level was perfect for grandparents. The living area so perfect plenty of seating for all to gather in comfort and the kitchen had every accessory we needed and more. Beautiful location so scenic and close to all we wanted or needed. Definitely will revisit when family is in to visit.

A slice of heaven in Crested Butte

The property was wonderful and the hosts were super. Our family loved the amenities and the comforts that the property provided. The accoutrements were top notch, the beds were very comfortable, the kitchen was stocked with quality equipment and the steam shower in the master bath opened my eyes to how great life can be.

Tell your friends! Awesome spot.

The pictures don’t do it justice. Spot is great, but one of the best parts was being on the edge of town with a fire pit and creek. It feels secluded and serene. The house is also a quick walk from town and has everything you need. I’ll be back!

Home away from home

From the minute we walked in the front door, we felt like we were at home. The furnishings and views of the outdoors were so colorful and comfortable. After 2 weeks of hotels we were ready for this. The kitchen was functional and well equipped. We enjoyed the decks and the fire pit. The babbling creek and the aspen trees were also a nice wilderness touch. We’ll try hard for a return visit

Amazing Home for a Crested Butte Adventure

Our family enjoyed staying at this beautiful home which is extremely comfortable. The location is wonderful to enjoy all of the downtown restaurants and unique and creative shops Crested Butte has to offer. We had great campfires under the stars after returning in the evenings and our Fall weekend trip was filled with amazing colors and memories. We are making plans to return for a longer stay in the future! Thank you also to Ted the property manager and his sweet dog Lucy who was up to a great game of fetch the ball with our grandson.
