We loved our stay. We stayed with our 3 kids and dog. Location is wonderful- it’s a quiet neighborhood where the kids could bike and go to the playground alone, and I could walk the dog peacefully taking in the amazing views. Check in and out were a breeze. A few adds to the kitchen would be great - salad bowl, some more silverware, and maybe some larger Tupperware, but the basics were there. Bedrooms need a dresser or some place to put clothing, that would be the only other need, as the kids lived off the floor- which wasn’t ideal for a longer stay. All these aside we would definitely stay again.

Great House & Location
We enjoyed our stayed at this house. The set up was perfect for our family of 4. The house was extremely clean and the neighbors were very friendly. The kitchen was stocked allowing us to cook dinner in the evenings.The property manager reached out several times to check on us, which was very thoughtful.We would highly recommend this place to anyone who is interested in being close to Crested Butte (downtown shops) and the ski mountain. All within an easy drive.

Great place with wonderful neighbors
This place is very nice with great views anf neighbors. We got our car stuck in the snow, they forgot to plow the driveway, but Jerry from next door came to our rescue. He got the neighbors together and pulled us out. Then he shoveled our driveway while we were unpacking. Great hosts as well, excellent communication. Just a wonderful time!

First week of October
This place was amazing!! It had everything we needed to stay comfortably, cook great meals, and have quality family time. It’s also close enough to town to shop around in Crested Butte. So many unforgettable memories were created here, and we can’t be more grateful.

We loved our stay at the Waffle Bar house and are looking forward to staying here again. The beds were very fantastic, the kitchen was easy to cook in and the house was very comfortable overall.

Crested Butte vacation
It is a lovely property.
We had difficulty opening one of the garage doors.
And it would be nice to have slow closure or a door stop for the doors entering the garage and side entry. They are heavy and caught my husbands heel. Ouch!
The kitchen is well equipped and the house was clean. The property mgr was quick to respond to all our questions. Would definitely rent again.

Awesome home and location… some property management issues
Location is outstanding and the construction and comfort will ensure we look for this property again in the future. Just a few miles out of town, close to hiking trails with plenty of room for our family.
The property manager was quick to respond but did not follow through with results. We rented the property for 7 and there were 4 large dinner plates. The manager promised to have them delivered by 8:45 pm… which did not happen. Also who wants to wait to eat dinner until 9 pm? The garage was full of dried mud from the previous renter and there were a significant number of dog turds in the front yard. The manager expected me to track down cleaning supplies and send pictures of the dog poo… I declined on both.
Love this property but the manager has some work to do. Hope this information makes it to the property owner.

New property with amazing views
We had a wonderful stay at this townhome with stunning views of Whetstone Mountain. It was easy to get to and only about 10 minutes from the ski area. The double car heated garage was a huge bonus. The property manager was very responsive to our requests. Highly recommend and will plan to stay again in the future.

Perfect size and layout for our family of 5 and pup. Kitchen had everything we needed. Easy 10 minute drive (or less) to mountain to ski. Loved the quiet neighborhood. We'll go back!
