About the Home

The open-concept living area has wood-beam vaulted ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, a beige sofa that converts to a queen sleeper, and picture windows framing the mountain. The full-size kitchen includes electric range, dishwasher, coffee maker, and full-size refrigerator, with breakfast-bar seating for 3 and a dining table for 6. Bedroom 1 (Primary King) has a King bed and an en-suite full bathroom. Bedroom 2 (Twin Room) has two Twin beds and an en-suite full bathroom. The living-room sleeper sofa converts to a queen bed. Total occupancy: 6 guests across 2 bedrooms plus the living-room sleeper. The condo includes in-condo washer and dryer, laptop-friendly workspace, high-speed Wi-Fi throughout, and baseboard heating.

Shared Plaza amenities available to all guests include pool table in the lobby, tennis and pickleball courts with mountain views, and 2 covered parking in the Plaza lot. The building has elevator access and a private entrance. Self check-in via smart lock. We do utilize a weblink outside the platform that directs guests to our guidebook. You will receive an email with this link. This is the ONLY way guests can access check-in information, and facilitates the collection of fees and other special requests/upgraded services we offer. To protect your stay, you'll choose one of two options during online check-in: a $150 refundable security deposit (a temporary card hold, released after checkout) or a small damage waiver ($7/night, max $40).
Good to know
STR License Registration: 303594 HONEST DISCLOSURES — so there are no surprises: 3 PROS worth knowing: - The walk to the lifts really is 3 minutes — we've timed it in ski boots. - Both bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms — rare in a 2BR at this price point, and it means two couples never fight over a bathroom at 7am. 2 CONS worth knowing: - No A/C — summer highs are mid-70s so it's rarely an issue, but south-facing rooms can warm up midday. Open windows + ceiling fans handle it. OTHER: - Elevation ~9,400 ft — hydrate aggressively day one, go easy on alcohol that first night. - Parking is free open lot at The Plaza — no assigned spaces. - Wood-burning fireplace — seasonal firewood provided. - Quiet hours 10pm–8am (HOA). - No smoking, no pets, no parties.
