CHARMING 3 BR VICTORIAN IN THE HISTORIC DISTRICT!
Walking distance to shopping, great food, skiing, hiking. and so much more.
Imagine sitting in the sunroom, on the patio or on our handmade, outdoor love seat with a cup of coffee or glass of wine as you enjoy the fantastic view of mountains, flower gardens, and relax after a full day of fun!
Kate's Place is located in the Crested Butte historic district, one half block off Elk Ave., main street. Kate's Place was shipped to CB in 1922 by train as one of the first original Montgomery Ward's kit homes. It was erected by a local miner with the help of friends and neighbors. The home is named after Kate Starika who shared letters with the lonely miner and agreed to marry him after he provided her with a respectable home.
The home was restored in the early 80's and was recognized by the Board of zoning and Architectural Review as the best example of historical renovation completed that year in CB.
"We tried to maintain as much of the historical integrity as possible. The renovation was a labor of love." As much of the original wood trim, flooring and light fixtures were retained. Beautiful leaded glass doors and side panels were designed in Dallas to fit the new entrance way into home and the wonderful enclosed sunroom. The perfect place to relax after a day of skiing, hiking, biking or shopping in town. The most wonderful element of the home is it's location...walking distance to all the beauty and charm of Crested Butte.
Kate's Place is cozy and comfortable with furniture designed to spread out and relax. When you come to CD you want to relax and enjoy the large and private yard, patio, and outdoor furniture that provides another great space to chill!
Kate's Place is licensed by the town of Crested Butte, license no 12755. Yearly the property is inspected to make sure all safety rules and regulations are followed.
This assures you and your family of a safe, clean property for you vacation needs.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Kathleen M Reid

My husband and I purchased Kate's Place in 1989 and have been adding updates ever since as a labor of love. Now retired we get to enjoy CB even more and have learned that spring and fall are also special times and are busy exploring the area during these seasons too. We share some of our favorite places in the Guest Book waiting for you at the house.
Why they chose this property
We often visited Crested Butte to ski and loved the area. When we saw Kate's Place we fell in love again! The house is part of the history of CB and is all most 100 years old. Kate's Place is located one block off the main street of Elk Ave....walking distance to hiking, shopping, dinning and parks. Two blocks from the free shuttle bus to the mountain.
What makes this property unique
Outdoor beauty, friendly people, wonderful hiking, skiing, rafting, biking and more within walking distance. Great food and social events...everything for the perfect vacation!
Great 4th of July parades, weekly music at the park and on the mountain. Food and wine events. Summer chair lift rides with or without your bike. Art shows and the weekly farmers market and art show are just a few of the events to keep you busy.
