Great stay from start to finish. Checkin was smooth and the team was in constant communication. Great location, short walk to village lift and can ski right up to the room. Highly recommend if you’re headed to Telluride.

The place worked out great for my wife and me. Location is hard to beat. Short walk to ski access down to the lift and short walk to the gondola down to the town. Would stay here again.

Thank you so much for joining us at the Blue Mesa Lodge, Matthew! We're so happy you enjoyed the location and amenities. We hope to see you again!
Really enjoyed the location. Great ambiance, the live music from the Italian restaurant out in the courtyard filtered in through the windows in the evening - very pleasant. Easy walking distance to shops and restaraunts as well as the free gondala to Telluride. Watch your head making coffee under the spiral staircase!

Erik, thank you for giving the Blue Mesa Lodge five-stars! We are so happy that you loved the property and everything it has to offer.
We hope to welcome you back another time!
We loved the convenience of this condo, right on Sunset Plaza in Mountain Village with easy access to the gondola. It was very comfortable and had everything we needed, including good Wi-Fi. Being able to park in the garage is a plus, and Kelly at Alpine lodging was very helpful when someone parked in our space. Thanks for a lovely stay!

My husband and I stayed here and loved it. We were pretty center to Mountain Village so it was easy to get to the gondola and restaurants, as well as into the Town of Telluride.
The condo is great for 2 people, plenty of space, comfortable couch and bed. Cut patio to people watch and drink coffee from. We'd stay here again.
Thanks!

Steven, we're thrilled that you chose the Blue Mesa Lodge for your first (of many!) trip to Telluride. Thank you for your five-star rating, and we're so pleased you had a marvelous experience. We look forward to welcoming you again.
The views and proximity to the lifts cannot be beat!
The spiral staircase to the sleeping loft was a slight challenge for my older mother-in-law but we knew this when we rented. If you're looking to stay in Mountain Village, this place is spectacular. Thanks very much for sharing it with us!

We enjoyed our stay in this unit. Easy access to all the activities we did. Having a parking spot in the garage was a plus. Thought laundry was in the unit but was on a different floor of the building. Overall a nice place to stay.

Our stay here was great! First, the location was absolutely phenomenal. It was in the middle of Mountain Village town, and the gondola into the town of Telluride was the highlight of our trip.
The unit itself is fairly spacious and the patio is wonderful. There's not much privacy if you have 3+ people (as the top is just a lofted area) but that was okay with us. The pullout bed wasn't fantastic, but it was fine! Overall, great stay and would visit again.

Bianca, we're so pleased that you had a five-star experience at the Blue Mesa Lodge! It sounds like you had a wonderful weekend and we hope to welcome you back!
I needed quiet time to do some work, the condo in the Mountain Village was perfect for it. It was comfortable, the grocery store is walking distance, a good stay all around. A note to maintenance, the sink in the bathroom does not drain properly, and kitchen sink disposal is very loud and rattles. Otherwise all was fine!

Thank you for your feedback, Luci! We’re so glad the condo was a peaceful and comfortable spot for your work stay. We’ll be sure to pass along your notes about the bathroom sink drainage and the kitchen sink disposal to our maintenance team for attention. We’re glad everything else was to your liking, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime!
Perfect location in mountain village. Was a great size for one couple- plenty of room to spread out. Everything was spotless. We did use the fan as the loft bedroom got a little stuffy. A tall standing fan might be a nice addition (as opposed to the box fan since it’s not quite tall enough to feel the air flow). But it really is a wonderful condo! Would happily stay again.
Very clean, wonderfully decorated property. Great location with shops, restaurants nearby and walking distance to the gondola to take you into Telluride. The only issue we had was the pull out couch was very uncomfortable. I tried making it more comfortable by adding foam layer, other pillows, anything. Replacing the mattress would be beneficial. Overall, very nice.

Hi, Brenda!
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed review. We will certainly pass along the bedding notes to the homeowner and see if we can get that replaced. We hope to see you again soon!
Property is very conveniently located, literally steps from the snow at the top of the Chondola. Just a few minutes walk to the stores and restaurants of Mountain Village and the free gondola which takes you down to Telluride. Couldn’t have picked a better location. Very well stocked with more than enough towels, toiletries, etc. for a family of 4 for our 5 night stay. Starter coffee, detergent, etc. was enough to last the full trip.
Wont knock a star for it since the previous reviews warned us plenty already but the sofa bed mattress is horrible. Kids took the main bed and loved it, we didn’t get a single night of decent sleep. Would highly recommend owners doing something about it.

Hi Jaison, Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We're thrilled to hear that you found our property's location convenient and well-stocked for your family's stay. We appreciate your feedback regarding the sofa bed mattress and will certainly look into improving that aspect for future guests. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future for an even more comfortable stay.
I booked this stay for 4 adults, and upon arrival found out the internet did not work, and the second bed (a sleeper sofa) was broken and could not be pulled out. My wife and I had to sleep on the floor both nights, and management still has not addressed compensation for this major inconvenience. Paying full price for a property with half the advertised sleeping arrangements is NOT okay. Avoid AvantStay at all costs.

Hi Ryan. A 1-star experience is not what we want for our guests. Your feedback is greatly appreciated and will help us to improve moving forward. Our team has attempted to contact you regarding your stay, but unfortunately, the call went to voicemail. Please feel free to reach back out when you're available!
I stayed here over Presidents’ Day weekend with my almost 13yo son. It is in a PERFECT location. The ski locker set up is great. Literally steps to the top of the Chondola and ski down to Sunshine express to get to the top of the mountain fast. Right in the thick of Mountain Village too for dinner, coffee, shopping, etc. We would definitely stay again.
The furniture layout is a little wonky facing the non-operable fireplace instead of the TV. I would recommend rearranging it a bit to make it more comfortable to watch tv.
There were also no kitchen hand towels. I called to ask for some and they brought more bath towels. I felt bad about using a fluffy white bathroom towel in the kitchen.
But obviously nothing that interfered with our wonderful weekend stay. Thank you!!

Thank you for your review and feedback. We are glad you enjoyed the location of this condo!
I think this is the best located condo in the Blue Messa lodge building with the best view at the mountains and village base with Chondola. This unit is at the very top 4th floor and located right in the center of the floor. We loved the location and the view! 1 min walk out of the building to the Chondola and 1.5 min to the Village Express lift - very convenient, almost ski in/ski out. In proximity to all village stores and Free gondola as well. Our teenagers 16 and 13 yo were roaming at the village and Telluride all by themselves.Very good for family of four. Had almost everything needed for a week's stay.There are couple of things though I would improove - we had no spatula at all to cook with (borrowed it from neighboring family members). And the unit can be made so much more functional, utilizing loft and main area so much better - like more beds (vs sleeper sofa) to accommodate all the members of visiting families. There is so much space to make it much more interesting and functional. It is a big space but it feels small because there are so many tables and unneeded furniture.This is just a constructive criticism though. We still loved the place, and would come back again!!!

Thanks for your thoughtful review, Tanya! It's fantastic to hear that you loved the location and the views—being so close to the Chondola and Village Express must have been super convenient for your family. We appreciate your constructive feedback about the spatula and the space usage, and we'll definitely take that into consideration for future improvements. We're so glad you had a great time and would love to welcome you back again!
