About this property

Cozy Downtown Cottage by the Gondola!

Please read the full description of bedrooms, bathrooms, and layout! This is a small 583 SF home that we love! This doesn’t mean it is for you. Yes 6 people can sleep here but everyone has different preferences! Please do not be surprised or leave a negative review about the size of this home as every effort has been made to depict the home size. The space is used efficiently to sleep as many as possible. There is some room for storage but not excessive baggage.

Pet friendly with a $295 fee. You must select that you are bringing a pet when booking and include the pet type and weight in the booking request.

With a prime location right in the heart of downtown Telluride, this darling, dog-friendly cottage sits within steps of the free gondola at Telluride Ski Resort, the banks of the San Miguel River, and the bustling restaurants, shops, and events that can be found all along Colorado Avenue.

Built at the turn of the century and thoughtfully modernized since, this cozy cottage is a wonderful spot for an adventure-loving family in any season. As you stroll home from a day of skiing, hiking, or mountain biking, you'll find ample space to leave your gear in the rustic shed - which even offers Adirondack chairs to make removing your boots all the easier.

Both bathrooms are downstairs, there is no bathroom upstairs in the king room.

Inside, the owners have made creative and efficient use of the space, with a triple bunk greeting you as you walk through the front door. The hallway leads into the main living space, where you'll find hardwood floors, a delightfully modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances, and an inviting living room with a flatscreen TV. You can slide open the glass doors to the deck to take a seat in an Adirondack chair, get the grill going for dinner, take a dip in the private hot tub, or gather with loved ones around the firepit with a view of the mountains. Additional amenities include a washer/dryer, a flatscreen TV in each of the bedrooms, and free WiFi throughout the house.

The king master bedroom is up a small spiral staircase right off of the bunk room.

It's a delightfully cozy little house that is super to everything, especially the gondola. We didn't have to move our car once because everything was so walkable. And we really appreciated that the owners have someone shovel the back porch and sidewalks.

We had a great long weekend at Wills place! You can’t beat the location and we got a great price for off season. The home is small, I wouldn’t recommend more than 4 people, but was exactly what we were looking for!

Perfect location in the town of Telluride. Note that both bathrooms are on the main level and accessed by a spiral staircase from the main king sleeper room.

Thank you for staying! The location is in the heart of town. Yes as the description states both bathrooms are downstairs and the king bedroom is up a spiral staircase. Hopefully this wasn’t a surprise as the description has been written to very thoroughly describe this.

Perfect stay in Telluride

The house was in a perfect location. Easy walk to both the shops and restaurants on Main Street and the gondola. The back deck and barn were perfect. The beds were all very big and comfortable. I would definitely recommend anyone headed to telluride.

Cozy on a budget + great location

This is a good cabin for a couple or small family. My 23-year old son, 2 small dogs, and I stayed here and it was great for us. Close proximity to Main Street and the Gondola, we just needed a place to sleep 8 hours a day while we hiked, biked, dined etc around Telluride. I wouldn’t recommend 10 people stay here, but a young couple with young kids would be just fine. We had a great father/son trip here.

Wonderful location

The place was small but sufficient for a small family of 3 of us. The location could not be better. It was walking distance to everything you need. We needed more toiletries and Drew had them sent over before we arrived back from Dinner. I would strongly recommend this place but for a family of 4 maximum, unless you have small children.
