About this property

Gunnison Cottage

Beautiful and cozy. Built in 1939, this home was completely remodeled into elegance in 2018 while keeping the historic feeling with the original floors and clay walls. The upstairs has a queen bed and a full bath with Jacuzzi tub/shower. The main level is an open floor plan for the living/kitchen/dinning. The couch has a queen pull out bed with a memory foam mattress. There is a in floor heat that is on a thermostat for constant comfort in the cooler months, while the thick adobe walls keep the house nice and cool in the summer months. The bedroom on the main level has a queen bed. There is also another full bath on the main level. There is an oversized entryway with washer and dryer. This is very convenient for gear and bags, keeping your living space clutter free.
The Cottage is located right off the main road toward Crested Butte, about 2 miles north of Gunnison. It is conveniently located near (walking distance) to one of the main river put ins. Also Walking distance to one of Gunnisons best restaurants, Garlic Mikes, and walking distance to the bus stop that runs between Crested Butte and Gunnison.

Perfect for adventure and relaxation

I brought my parents here so i could show them the gunnison/crested butte area. This was perfectly located for this kind of trip. My parents are already asking to stay here again in the future the next time they come out. The home was clean, beds were comfortable. The patio was perfect for cooking evening dinner and relaxing during the summer evening. Would definetly recommend this stay and will come back in the future.

Fall Colors

We had a great stay at this very excellent property! I’m certain it was easily the cleanest VRBO we’ve ever visited! Well done! Peaceful and serene, close to the highway but completely soundproof. Our travel goal was to view the changing colors and Crested Butte, Kebler Pass, Lake City and Slumgullion Pass were all amazing! Bonus points for the proximity to Garlic Mike’s and the river. 10/10 recommend!

Spring getaway

Very nice accommodations. Great location. Check in & check out couldn’t have been easier. Easy access to hostess if needed. Remodeled home is perfect combination of old meets new. Pictures on web site are exactly as viewed. I would highly recommend this property.

A great base to explore Gunnison and Crested Butte

The house is nestled among trees just steps from the Gunnison River, and has been thoughtfully updated. It was very comfortable for us traveling with our daughter and baby grandson. We cooked in the fully stocked kitchen, and one night we walked over to Garlic Mike's and sat by the river enjoying delicious Italian food. The only downside was the road noise, which made it hard to sleep with the window open (a necessity in summer(.

Authentic Gunni

If you want an authentic Gunni experience and great value, stay at this place. It’s an older building, but the inside is pretty much like new. Really nicely done and decorated. The loft is basically a master bedroom and absolutely adorable. The place is right on the highway, but honestly even though we’re light sleepers, we didn’t hear road noise at night. We did struggle to get the main floor warm the first morning we were there. But it was an extra cold morning in January. And once we got a space heater plus the gas stove going, we were set. Our kids loved staying here and so did we. Property mangers were really great to work with - friendly, accommodating and responsive.

Great house in a beautiful location

This place was great for us, my wife and I and 3 teens. It's not far out of town, right off the road, easy to find and get to. The location is along the river in a beautiful spot. I think it would be great in the summer too. The house had everything we needed. The owners, Taryn and Mark were great, helping us with car trouble and moving snow the first morning we were there. Our only issue was setting the temperature. If the downstairs was warm, the upstairs was too hot. If we got the upstairs comfortable, the downstairs was too cold. We probably would have figured it out if we had stayed longer. Us southerners are just used to central heat and air and we don't know how to use other heat sources. But, having said that, we would definately stay here again. In fact, we hope to.

Great little house. Comfy and modern inside, and well stocked.

Perfect 2bd, 2 bath house for a weekend visit to Gunnison. Very short walk to Garlic Mike's Italian restaurant, which was fantastic. House was well stocked with all the essentials; plenty of towels, bathroom toiletries, and a well appointed kitchen. Very comfortable. Would certainly stay here again.
