Architectural detailing combined with Rocky Mountain-inspired decor adds a sophisticated and stylish touch to the open space. The living area has a beautiful wall of windows built to maximize the sweeping, soul-lifting views. Kick back and relax on a sumptuous couch after a day on the trails, with a roaring fireplace nearby, a majestic sunset, and a glass of wine in hand.
The formal dining table seats ten guests comfortably next to a toasty fireplace and inspires long cocktail hours and comfortable fireside chats. The gourmet kitchen built for a professional chef is complete with lots of marble and bespoke cabinetry. Premium stainless steel appliances enhance the kitchen's gourmet feel, while a large butler's pantry adds a practical edge to the beautifully streamlined space. The island bench provides a sociable center to the kitchen and doubles as a breakfast bar ideal for the kids. Sunny, modern, and big enough to cater for large gatherings- a dream for the serious cook.
Sliding-glass doors seamlessly connect the indoor-outdoor spaces and lead to a sun-dappled deck that encourages easy-style entertaining and long alfresco lunches. Equipped with plenty of outside furniture, a grill, and a sunken hot tub nearby, this space is an oasis of relaxation for your entire crew.

The decadently spacious primary suite is luxuriously equipped with a walk-in wardrobe, a sumptuous king-size bed, flat-screen television, and a crackling fireplace with a cozy seating area.

Escape from hectic daily life in the media room and have friends over for a drink at the bar or watch movies in your private home theater. This dream home with a mix of old-world prestige and modern luxury has it all. Sipping martinis on the deck and popping downstairs for a ride on the slopes is what ski-side living is all about.

Very nice home and great property management that was easy to work with. Appreciated having simple checkout instructions and not feeling stressed on the day of checkout.
The house is well maintained and in a good location for slope access a short walk down the road. The property managers responded to minor problems quickly and we had a great stay at The Twin Elks house.
We absolutely loved our stay at the Twin Elk, it was the perfect size for our large group of 18 friends. Everyone had their own space. There are LOTS of animals sharing the space, it’s very important to keep the doors locked to keep them outside 😁

Thank you Kyle for taking the time to leave us a review! Twin Elk is the perfect place for large groups!! And yes, the Telluride area is home to lots of wildlife - we are glad you enjoyed seeing them from the comfort of this home! Thank you and we hope to host you again soon.
We really enjoyed the house in Mountain Village. It is a large beautiful house with adequate table, chairs, and beds for many guests, which was great! We had a large family of 24 staying there and it worked out great! There was enough space for all of us to gather and enjoy.
It is around 1.3 miles from the Gondola at Market Village where you can catch a ride to Mountain Village town center. It would be nice to be closer to mountain village but I don't believe there would be a house closer that would accommodate such a large group.

We rented the property for a wedding party of 21. We all stayed in the house and had the wedding on the balcony. The photos don't do it justice. What a beautful place. The concierge and property manager were so helpful and quick to respond. The complimentary shuttle service got us where we needed to be quickly and safely. Nothing but high praise for Twin Elk! Thank you so much.

Dear Laurie,
Thank you for this kind review. We loved hosting you and hope to see you soon.
Warmly,
The team at Exceptional Stays
Everything was great. The issue that we had was that a pickup showed up without prior notice. The man said he was there to work on the irrigation system.
Make sure the guests are notified ahead of time if this needs to happen again.
We are a large family that skis together. Our stay at Two/Twin Elks was perfect. The home and Exceptional Stays management checked all the boxes. We prepared most meals at home in the well stocked kitchen. The bedrooms/bathrooms were extensive, well furnished, and comfortable with hotel quality bedding. House was clean and Exceptional even arranged a beautiful tree for our Christmas celebration. Got lots of snow during our stay. Crews appeared daily to shovel the exterior spaces and driveway. Would highly recommend the property for a large family or multiple guests. Easy walk downhill to catch the slopes. Enjoyed the hot tub and family movie room. Thanks much to the unknown owners for providing such an exceptional home for our stay! Will return if possible.
Don’t worry just book it!
Had my wife's 40th surprise birthday here. Her whole family came up and their was more than enough room for us all. The house is amazing!!
