About this apartment rental
This gorgeous penthouse suite 1000 sq ft + is located on the top third floor of the Ouray Alchemist building in the heart of town. Bi-directional pleated shades offer the excellent combination of breathtaking 360 degree surrounding mountain views with just the right amount of privacy desired. It is the perfect romantic haven for enjoying the numerous activities in the adventurous Ouray area.
There is a 400 sq ft deck that gives you private views of the Chief Ouray Mine, Cascade Falls, the Amphitheater and Twin Peaks. In addition there is a small breakfast balcony facing Main Street with a giant Douglas fir just to the south providing shade and privacy to those who want to see what is going on around town.
The Ouray Alchemist is a long-time project for Curtis and Nancy. Curt has been collecting pharmacy artifacts for many years. The commercial space features a historical collection of pharmacy memorabilia dating back to 350 BC. The collection is a tribute to the history of pharmacy, containing many hand-blown label-under-glass bottles with the original drugs (herbs and roots) with an emphasis toward Colorado pharmacy history (such as the oldest written prescription in Colorado). It is a memorable tribute to pharmacy worth seeing during your stay. Pharmacists Curt and Nancy will do the best to make your visit well worth it. The Ouray Alchemist, what we call our retail area and museum, has been featured on the cover of Bottles and Extras. We also have an article written about us in GV Magazine. This stands for Grand Valley and is mainly distributed around the Grand Junction area. Grand Junction is just a two hour drive from Ouray.
The Ouray Alchemist building is unique to the Ouray area. It was newly built/completed in 2011. Enjoy the whimsical finial portraying the sun, moon and stars. The gargoyles positioned on the four corners of the copper-domed tower by tradition offer "protection and happiness" to those who enjoy this incredible suite. Maximum of two adults. No children. Not available to rent to throw parties/ have events.

Amazing views! Great place. Everything there needed. Nancy is a great host.

Property was FABULOUS!!! Great location for all downtown activities…only issue is if you drive a larger truck the garage is inaccessible for parking. Parking on the side street was no problem though. Highly recommend this property for your Ouray trip.

The property was very nice and the location was perfect with great views is every direction. But the thing that stood out the most to us was the hospitality provided by the hosts. When we arrived, they took the time to show us around and point out various features of the space. It was obvious they wanted to do anything they could to insure our satisfaction. To me, that is the epitome of hospitality!

Nice owners and cute apartment. Plus a garage to store your vehicle. However, I'm expecting at least a decent cooling system if I'm paying over 400 a night. The a/c unit was out of order, so replacement measures were put in place, but they were sub-par to say the least. The bedroom was practically impossible to cool down, so we set up the pull-out bed and slept in the living area just so we could stay a bit cooler. Don't expect to sleep in past 7:00 if you're able to sleep in the heat of the bedroom either. The sun shines through the windows without blinds and directly into your eyes at the crack of dawn. I'll admit, the sights were very pretty, but I like to sleep in at least a little bit when I'm on vacation.
