About this property

Maroon Bells / A Piece of Crested Butte History! Only One Block off Elk Ave

Maroon Bells is a piece of Crested Butte history that you don`t want to miss. Owned by the same family for over 25 years, this late 1800`s cabin is rooted deep in the history books of Crested Butte. Through the years it even found time to be a bicycle repair shop! Lovingly restored and back to a fantastic family home, the location can`t be beat! Right in the middle of the historic district and only 1 block from Elk Avenue, this 4 bedroom, 4 bath home with private HOT TUB is sure to be your family`s base for many memorable Crested Butte vacations!

Step inside this spacious home and discover the definition of "comfort." With fantastic beds, a huge sunken HOT TUB, and a large yard, there is plenty of room for the whole family, (10 to be exact). The open living, kitchen, and dining area assure that everyone is a part of the action while that heated game of "go fish" is being played out on the large dining room table. On the first level you will also find the master bedroom with king bed and private master bath.There is a queen bedroom on this level along with two full baths and a laundry room.

Upstairs you will find two separate bedrooms. The one on the front part of the home has a queen bed and two twins. The second master suite is on the back of the house and has a queen bed, private bath, and it`s own outdoor deck. This room boasts the most incredible views in the house of the surrounding mountains to the North of Crested Butte. Outside you will find a large yard and a private covered hot tub to relax after a long day skiing, hiking, or just shopping! Whatever your activity or season in Crested Butte, load up the family, friends, and even the kids, and enjoy the comfort of Maroon Bells!

Christmas trip 2024

Our family of 8 had a great stay at Maroon Bells over Christmas. The property management was great to work with prior to and during our visit. I would have given all 5 stars, but we did have problems with the hot tub, and unfortunately were not able to use it successfully for most of the stay, circuit breaker kept shutting it down. Maintenance was sent twice to restart, but unfortunately due to the holidays a repair was not able to be scheduled until after we left. I trust this will be fixed for future renters. The location, close to the free bus stop to ski slopes, and right in town was perfect for walking anywhere we needed. We did not have a car and did not miss one. The house was well stocked for cooking. Our beds were comfortable. Our group enjoyed our Christmas in Created Butte and our rental at Marion Bells.

Great Accommodation in CB

Stayed here with family members for our son’s wedding in CB. The house was exactly as described - very roomy, well equipped, clean, and a super location right in town. The hot tub and the large back yard allowed us to also enjoy the beautiful weekend outdoors - the littles were able to run to their hearts content and swim in hot tub. Highly recommend for families looking to come together but have some privacy as well.

Great location, sleeping arrangements could use some work

Great location in the town of Crested Butte. Could walk to anything. Bedrooms and beds were very disappointing. Mattresses squeaked loudly upon any movement and two bedrooms had no doors. For the price, the house could use some updating.

Our stay at Maroon Bells

We had a fantastic stay at Maroon Bells. The process of booking the stay thru VRBO was very simple. And the communication with Iron Horse via email was excellent. The house was very clean and neat. The house was bigger than expected and we had plenty of space to move about. The most awesome thing about the house is it’s location- just one block off the Main Street. So close to shopping, eating and all the other cool things that make up Crested Butte. Some of our other family stayed further away, but they ended gathering at Maroon Bells due to its proximity to the downtown area. Overall, we only had one complaint- and this isn’t really a complaint- the house on the website was beige, while in reality it had gotten a fresh coat of blue paint! The new color has just added to its charm.

Ski Trip with Friends

This house was perfect for our ski trip! It was very close to the main street so we were able to walk to everything and it was also close to the bus stop for MT. Crested Butte. We have 9 people total and there were plenty of bedrooms/bathrooms. The kitchen was equipped with everything needed to make a big family meal! I would definitely stay here again.

Great location and as described online. My only negative feedback is that there were way too many rules by the property management company. That was quite annoying to keep track of. Otherwise, good experience!

Ideal Location

We stayed at the house with another family and had a blast. The house had everything we needed to cook meals. The upstairs area with queen and twin beds was the perfect room for kids to sleep together. The hot tub was such fun for the kids. You are right in town and don’t even need to use your car. Great playground nearby. Highly recommend!

In the middle of everything

Great house in the middle of everything. We easily walked to elk, a block over for dinner, ice cream and the toy store. I MTBd from the home every day. I even brought my fly rod and rented a SUP had great luck at lake Irwin.

We absolutely loved this place! It was 1 block from everything going on in town and it was such a cute place. Great backyard for sitting outside getting some sun. Would definitely stay here again. There were only 2 of us so we only used 1 of the 4 beautiful bedrooms.

Charming property with a perfect location 1 block off of Elk!

The house worked perfectly for our stay, and we enjoyed spending time together in the common rooms while also having private retreats (include 2 suites with full baths.) the property was clean, and the rental agency was responsive to all of our calls and questions. After a full day of hiking, it was nice to have a private grill and hot tub to look forward to.
