2 Bed 2 Bath, Downtown CB, Hot Tub, Fireplace, Parking, Yard! Nordic skiing!

Welcome to The 401 House, Downtown Crested Butte!

***Please read disclosures before booking.

Hot tub, parking, right in the heart of town, with a free shuttle to the mountain just down the street. Come discover why this charming refurbished mining cabin in the heart of town is one of Crested Butte’s most popular vacation rentals.

When it comes to mountain biking in Crested Butte, the 401 Trail simply tops them all - a world-renowned trail that has got something for everyone, and always delivers an unforgettable experience - which is why we call this remarkable property the 401 House, a true Crested Butte gem where great memories are waiting to be made! Originally built in the 1890’s, this restored historic cabin feels like it is in a world of it’s own, even though it’s conveniently located in the heart of Downtown Crested Butte. A private fenced yard hides the hot tub and gas grill area, as well plenty of room to pull up a chair and unwind. The 401 House is one block from the Mountain Express bus stop, one block from the Nordic Center, and 2 blocks from the shops and restaurants on Elk Avenue- just pull into your own off-street parking, then wave your car goodbye and focus on the finer things in life! 
A spacious and well-equipped kitchen opens into a lovely dining area, then a cozy family room, complete with gas fireplace, smart TV, family-style games, and room to lounge, or even sleep in the oversized-Queen Sleeper Sofa. Radiant in-floor heat throughout means every room is toasty. Each bedroom boasts a king size bed, a high ceiling with fan, great light, and it’s own deck. Amenities galore.

Whether you need the perfect nest to refuel between your big mountain adventures, or a peaceful place to connect with those who matter most, the 401 House awaits.

We are always happy and willing to assist with ski and bike rentals and to share our local knowledge.

Great property, no down sides

This property is clean, spacious, comfortable, and has all of the features you could hope for. The shuttle to the ski resort stops a block away and Main Street is just a two block walk. The hot tub is great, the bathrooms are very nice, and the kitchen is stocked with all of the cooking supplies you need. Highly recommend.

Great House

We loved the house. Great communication with the host, and the house was actually better than what shows in the picture. My only complaint is Whiterock is a main thoroughfare to Kebbler Pass, so if you have kids it’s a very busy street. Other than that is was perfect.

Great property. Great location.

The property was perfect for our needs. Only complaint would be that on a couple chilly mornings we could not get the gas stove in the family room to work. The property manager was very courteous but also was unable to get the stove operational. We very much enjoyed our stay at the “401 House” and would look to book it for our next visit to Crested Butte.

This is the place for Crested Butte

My wife and 2 daughters rented this house to ski Crested Butte Xmas through New Years. The house itself if great - big living room area, big kitchen, 2 master bedrooms essentially, very comfortable for group of 4. Would be great for 2 couples as well. Besides the house, the location doesn't get any better - 2 blocks from everything - restaurants, bars, shops, grocery store, dispensary, you name it. Also the city's bus system which is highly convenient that takes you up the mountain to ski picks you up pretty much at the front door. We will definitely stay here again.

Cozy & comfy with modern style!

This trip included me and my husband and our 18 year old son and his friend. The property is conveniently located about 2 blocks from the main street (Elk Avenue) where all of the restaurants and shops are. Even though it's close to all the action, it is amazingly quiet on the street where it's located. The house is very well maintained outside and in with an open floor plan upon entering, nice comfy furniture, a well equipped kitchen, modern appliances and all that you need if you like to stay in and cook a meal. Beds are super comfy too and my husband and I really loved the steam shower in the master bath. There is also plenty of outdoor space and seating as well. We did not get a chance to use it much because of all of the snow, but we did love and use the outdoor hot tub, which was perfect after a full day skiing. We would highly reccommend this property and would stay there again!

Perfect

Exceptionally clean home, perfectly lay out wonderful bathrooms ground level access with a quaint backyard walking distance to town coffee shops and everything you need easy access to trails from the house perfect in every way. One negative is that there’s no AC, which is fine, except for exceptionally hot spring in Colorado and the skylights in kitchen make a greenhouse effect so almost intolerable in 80’s inside with all Windows open, it wasn’t until halfway through the week we learned we could actually open the skylights, Sean bought us a window box fan which made all the difference in the world! Thank you ! Really an exceptional home for an exceptional city for an exceptional vacation, we will return
