Amazing home and incredible host! Everything was perfect, the views, the kitchen, the steam rooms, we loved it all. I’ve been traveling with this group for 16 years and this was our favorite spot yet! And the host was so responsive and helpful leading up to the trip, she was eager to share photos and help plan a surprise engagement!
This was an amazing rental. Theresa and Ian truly thought of everything and were extremely accommodating for us to host our dream elopement in Crested Butte.
The hosts were kind enough to allow our micro wedding on the property. It was an absolutely gorgeous space in peak fall! Highly recommend this stay for quality time with loved ones in gorgeous mountain getaway!
What a wonderful house for our family of 17! Everyone had a place to call their own as we enjoyed Spring skiing in Crested Butte. The house was well stocked with everything we needed and then some. Eric was quick to answer any questions and was there to help when we had concerns. We really enjoyed the steam showers and hot tub after a long day of skiing. The sound system and media room were well used, and we enjoyed visiting over pool table competitions. Loved the artwork! We brought in a private chef one night, and it was fabulous. So close to town but set back into the woods, we had one of the best views of Crested Butte we have ever had in the thirty-five years of visiting CB. We can't wait to book again for the summer and experience the beauty of the mountains. Thank you, Theresa, for opening your home to our family.
The house was more perfect in person than it was in pictures. It did not disappoint. We had an overall great stay and made amazing memories with our family!
This place was SPECTACULAR!!!! I would stay here over and over again! We were checked on and any issue was had was handled immediately and with such care! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!
We had a wonderful day at this property! The house itself was beautiful, spacious and very comfortable. The property managers were incredibly attentive and always quick to respond whenever we need anything, which made the whole experience stress-free. Everyone at this property was such a breeze to work with, and their hospitality truly stood out. I would absolutely recommend this property and will definitely be returning in the future!
We had the most amazing weekend at Theresa’s place! We stayed with our entire wedding party of 23 and couldn’t have asked for a better place to make memories. The house was plenty spacious for all of us, stocked full of amenities, and set to a breathtaking backdrop of CB. The entire staff who helped us throughout the weekend were amazing too. We never wanted to leave!
This beautiful property was home to the wedding of our dreams! We had the most fun and joyous week, and the most magical celebration. The view cannot be topped, and the house so easily absorbed our friends and family to all have their own space and bathrooms. The hosts are very responsive. Thank you for a perfect week!
We had our wedding here we had 19 sleep here and 26 come to the property overall. There was plenty of room and the views were absolutely STUNNING. Everyone had such great things to say about this house. It did rain the whole weekend we were here, but the living room was big enough to have everyone inside for all of our dinners. I would love to come back here in the future! Eric was so helpful when we had some issues and Theresa was super easy to work with when booking!
We had the most wonderful experience from start to finish! The house was spacious, fun and sat amidst the beautiful mountains. Everything was taken care of, we will be back!
as beautiful as the photos are being there is so much better! the house is absolutely kitted out with everything you could need and more (there's even an oxygen machine)we booked the house for a long weekend for our small elopement style wedding where we fully used the house's amenities: amazing view of crested butte for the wedding ceremony, well equipped kitchen, large dining room/ living room, gorgeous bar and pool room, movie room, hot tub, steam room, pickleball court & morethe host and the property manager were so quick to respond and friendly, I couldn't recommend booking a stay here more!
Everything about this property was fantastic! Every view was phenomenal, the owners were so nice and helpful, the kitchen was incredibly well-equipped. It was the best house we have ever rented and we will definitely return!!
This was our first visit to Crested Butte and we absolutely loved the skiing. The home was perfect…beautiful inside and spacious for a big group. We would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a five star experience with a big group.
This was one of our favorite stays in CB! The views are unbeatable, location is super close to town and the house is perfect! plenty of room, great amenities, and the pickle ball court was a hit! Everything was great, from the hot tub, big kitchen, theater/pool room and ample dining space! Highly recommend staying here, especially for bigger families!
We had a great time. This is a beautiful home with everything you could want. We would love to see it in the summer!

About the host
Your host
Our family moved to Crested Butte from London, England in 2015. We have thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the outdoor lifestyle and tight knit community in CB. We're fortunate to have purchased a home with such amazing views, natural beauty abounds.
Why they chose this property
Set on 35 acres, situated on a tranquil plateau on Gibson’s Ridge, our unique, remarkable home offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains in a secluded, private setting. In the summer you can hike or bike on adjoining trails, SUP or fish in our pond, or just relax with the family surrounded by serene landscaping. The winter offers Nordic skiing on our property on a world class trail, Ruthie's Run. All this and we are a quick walk to town. If you know CB, you know the action is in town with it's multiple music venues, galleries, restaurants, and bars.
What makes this property unique
We have put our heart and soul into the "Big Mine Compound" creating an idyllic hideaway that appeals to the young and old. We have cherished the opportunity to share our home with family and friends creating memories to last a lifetime. We're sure you will do the same. You will not find a nicer oasis of tranquility walking distance to town. That said, the amenities and the the views are truly one of a kind, you might never leave.
