We stayed in this beautiful house over Christmas week and it exceeded all our expectations! Mike the owner was very helpful with anything we needed, and the house itself was amazing. The view is simply the most beautiful in the area, and the house feels remote even though it is a very convenient .2 miles from downtown Telluride. We had a 4wheel drive vehicle and had no trouble getting up the inclined private road to the house even when it snowed significantly, and the neighborhood roads are plowed daily. Our group consisted of both skiers and loungers and this house was perfect for both. It was very spacious and our group of 11 was so comfortable, though it should be noted that there are only 5 beds so 2 of the "kids" slept on futons or couches in the theater. The well-equipped kitchen, large hot tub, the theater room with Netflix, Apple TV, etc, the great room/kitchen with the roaring fire and magnificent views of Bridal Veil cannot be overstated. Thank you for a magical holiday, we will be back!!
