SHARED PLAZA AMENITIES (all Plaza guests):
✔ TWO hot tubs — indoor (pool area) + outdoor (deck)
✔ Sauna and steam room (inside the pool area)
✔ Pool table in the lobby hangout
✔ Tennis and pickleball courts with mountain views
✔ Elevator access
✔ Restaurant/bar in the building (open peak season)

3 PROS:
✔ The 3-minute walk to the lifts really is 3 minutes — we've timed it in ski boots.
✔ 2 covered parking spaces per reservation — no digging the car out after a storm.
✔ Indoor pool table + sauna + steam room make rest days easy with kids.

2 CONS:

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).

Guest Access:
Full private access to the 2-bedroom condo. Self check-in via smart lock — code sent the morning of arrival. Building has elevator access.

Parking: 2 covered parking spaces reserved for this unit — no scraping ice off the windshield, no digging out after a storm.

Shared Plaza amenities available to all Plaza guests:
- Two hot tubs — one indoor (in the pool area) and one outdoor (on the deck). Keys to the hot tubs are in the unit.
- Sauna and steam room (inside the pool area)

- Elevator to the unit with keyless entry
- Restaurant/bar in the building (open peak season)

The Neighborhood:
You're in Mt. Crested Butte — the base village at the foot of Crested Butte Mountain Resort. The Plaza sits at the center of it: lifts, après-ski restaurants, coffee shops, and gear rentals all within a 5-minute walk.

In summer, the village turns into a mountain biking and hiking hub with chairlift-accessed singletrack and the Wildflower Festival (Crested Butte is Colorado's official Wildflower Capital).

Historic downtown Crested Butte is 3 miles down-valley. Elk Avenue's preserved Victorian main street has the best small-town dining in Colorado — Secret Stash pizza, Sunflower, Soupçon — plus galleries, bars, and a free shuttle from the village so nobody has to drive home.

» 3-min walk ➔ Silver Queen & Red Lady lifts
» 2-min walk ➔ Mountaineer Square (dining, shops, gear)
» 10-min free bus ➔ Downtown Crested Butte / Elk Avenue
» 15-min drive ➔ Snodgrass & Woods Walk trailheads
» 25-min drive ➔ Kebler Pass (Sep aspens, summer only)

Getting Around:
You don't need a car to ski — walk to the lifts, take the free Mountain Express shuttle downtown. A car helps for trailheads, grocery runs to Clark's Market, and day trips to Kebler Pass.

- Gunnison-Crested Butte Regional Airport (GUC): 35-min drive — seasonal direct flights from Denver, Houston, Dallas
- Denver International (DEN): 4.5-hr drive — shuttle services available (Alpine Express, Dolly's)
- Free Mountain Express shuttle: runs between the village and downtown every 15 min in winter
- Rideshare: Uber/Lyft available but limited, especially late night — shuttle is more reliable
- Winter driving: Hwy 135 is well-maintained; AWD/4WD or chains recommended during storms
- Parking: 2 covered parking spaces per reservation at The Plaza — no scraping, no shoveling

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.
- 2 covered parking spaces per reservation — a real winter benefit in Mt. CB.
- The Plaza's shared indoor amenities (two hot tubs, sauna, steam room, pool table) make rest days easy with kids.

2 CONS worth knowing:
- Both hot tubs are shared with other Plaza guests — peak après hours (4–6pm) can get busy. The indoor tub area is usually quieter.
- No A/C — summer highs are mid-70s so it's rarely an issue, but south-facing rooms can warm up midday. Open windows handle it.

OTHER:
- Elevation ~9,400 ft — hydrate aggressively day one, go easy on alcohol that first night.
- Wood-burning fireplace — seasonal firewood provided.
- Kitchen is stocked with the basics (salt, pepper, coffee) — bring your own pantry staples if cooking most meals.
- Quiet hours 10pm–8am (HOA).
- No smoking, no pets, no parties.
