About this property

Affordable Sitzmark townhome at Purgatory - Awesome views - walk to slopes

Our 4 bedroom, 3 bath (2 full bathrooms and 2 half bathrooms) condo (Unit 14) is located in the Sitzmark Building at Purgatory Resort and offers convenience in all seasons. This is a slope side retreat right at the base of one of Purgatory’s favorite runs, Lower Hades (just walk up to Lower Hades from the townhome). Ski down to the high-speed six pack in the morning, and ski right back to your door in the afternoon. In spring, summer and fall, mountain biking and hiking trails are just the other side of the front door. This location cannot be beat, and it’s close to skier base area, all of the restaurants and shops, and the primary amenities of the main skier village at Purgatory.

The condo offers plenty of space for multiple families and features an open floor plan. There are tons of games/puzzles and also features parking at the unit for 2 vehicles, washer and dryer, WIFI and a gas grill.

Bed Configuration:
Master - King (top level)
2nd - King (second level)
3rd - King (second level)
4th - Bunk Bed (Single over Double) (Ground Floor/Entry level)
Main Living Space - Queen Pull Out Sofa (top level)

Stay with us and we offer DISCOUNTS on both summer (white water rafting, horseback riding etc.) and winter (ski/snowboard rentals, sleigh rides, snowmobile tours etc.) activities.

Please note that, like most properties at Purgatory ski Resort, the townhome does not have AC, as it is uncommon for homes at this elevation. Temperatures are easily managed by using fans and opening the windows at night when temperatures drop into the 40s.

Nice place, not true ski out location

Wonderful place just not able to ski out. Had to walk up to the slope to ski out. When snow was too deep had to walk down the road to slopes. Was able to ski in to location.

Thanks for your feedback. If you are fortunate enough to have a major snow storm during your stay, you can't ski to the lifts until they have groomed the cat walk to the main lift area. Count your blessings for those powder days is what we say!

Spring break

Elkpoint lodge is an awesome place to stay. Ski in/out is great as well since the trail run yellow brick road will lead you right back to the lodge. Our family of seven had lots of room to spread out and relax. We used the kitchen 2 nights to cook meals, drink our wine and beer, and enjoy the epic snow fall (which never stopped). Erika was diligent on making sure everything was in working order during our stay. We felt she truly cared about our experience.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful home with well stocked kitchen. It was so nice to ski in during the day to eat or rest. It’s not exactly ski out, but there was a short trail to walk and then we could ski to the lifts. It wasn’t bad at all! The only improvement for us would be softer beds, but let’s face it...how do you pick mattresses everyone will love?? We would stay here again!!

Meh

Advertised with 3 showers but there are only 2. Didn’t know it was 3 levels with stairs. Handrail needs repaired-coming out of wall. Says ski in ski out but you have to walk through a trail to get to the ski trail and back to the condo. Was not what I expected from the listing. We made it work even though one adult had to sleep on a blow up mattress.

Response from VrboOwner on 1 Mar 2025
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear that your experience didn’t match your expectations. We appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention. Regarding the shower count and the stairs, we apologize for any confusion in the listing. We have reviewed the description to ensure it's accurate and provides clear details about the layout. The handrail issue is concerning, and we have had it repaired for safety. We are also sorry about the ski-in/ski-out misunderstanding. We have made sure to update the listing to reflect the proper access and avoid any confusion for future guests. We also regret that one of your group members had to sleep on a blow-up mattress—this certainly isn’t ideal, and we have looked into the condition of the beds and accommodations so that this same instance does not happen to future guests. Thank you again for your valuable feedback, and I hope we can welcome you back in the future with a more comfortable stay.

Purgatory Ski Trip

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved the condo! Was not aware it was 3 levels so definitely need to be a good climber but all in all that would not stop us from renting the same place again. The only thing we were not excited about was that the ad says ski in ski out when it is actually ski in and hike up the hill in your ski boots and then ski out. This should be made clear to renters in the future.

Thanks for the review, Michael! It was a pleasure to host you. Ski-in/Ski-out is a bit subjective with most people as the ease of access depends a lot on the amount of snow we've received :) Premier Vacation Rentals looks forward to hosting you again in the future!

Great skiing at Purgatory

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great stay. The space was very comfortable for our group of 5. We cooked in and the kitchen equipment was great. The rooms were very comfortable, but it was a trek to the main floor for the person in the downstairs bunk room. It's 3 flights to the main floor. The only recommendation I would make is upgrading the lamps. It was very dim in the great room and top floor bedroom. Ski in/Ski out wasn't as convenient as some in our group would have liked.

Great house, missing key amenities

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a group of 7 (5 adults and 2 kids) that stayed at this 3 level townhome for 4 nights and the townhome is great with 4 bedrooms, a nice kitchen and a great room. However, there were a lot of minor inconveniences that caused a lot of frustration. While there was a propane grill, it was in a really bad condition and could have been a serious risk to use. there was no detergent liquid in the house, the thermostat was really old and for the most part the house was really hot, there were only 4 coffee mugs etc etc. These minor issues just added up and seemed like there was no attention to any of these issues.
Response from VrboOwner on 15 July 2024
I apologize for the various inconveniences you encountered during your stay. It's unacceptable that the propane grill was in poor condition and could have posed a risk. I'm sorry if the property details were unclear in that we provide a starter supply of detergent and that the property does not have AC. However, insufficient coffee mugs should have been addressed before your arrival. We take your concerns seriously and have ensured this minor but important detail was rectified promptly. Your feedback helps us improve, and we appreciate you bringing these matters to our attention. Thank you for your patience, and we hope to provide you with a much better experience on your next visit. -Mackey

2022 Ski Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Sitzmark 14 is very comfortable for a large group. This was our 5th trip to Purgatory and we have always stayed in the base area, but the first time we stayed up the road. The ski in and out is not described well in the details. You can ski in but you have to make a short hike up the hill (about 200 ft) to reach a run down. Not a big problem for our group. The condo had all the features and meet the description well. The kitchen was well furnished and was actually a little over furnished for us as we tend to bring a lot from home as we don’t know what we’ll have. But this unit had a nice assortment of pots and pans. The check in and out was well detailed. The entire resort lost power for several hours one night and the unit’s fireplace and candles were put to use. We enjoyed the experience. We would stay here again.
Response from VrboOwner on 14 Feb 2023
It was such a pleasure to host you for your 5th ski vacation to Purg! We're glad you found the property comfortable and fit for your large group. We're glad the resort got the power back on after the outage due to the snow storm. Hopefully made for some better skiing for you :) It was such a pleasure to host you and your group. We hope you book with VRC again for your next stay in the area!

Not true ski in ski out

Our ages range from 20-60. Our skiing is avid despite we are from Louisiana. We all have been skiing for 30 plus years. This ski in ski out listing was quite deceiving. I say this because there is no exclusive path to leave the deck or arrive to the deck. There was a make shift ungroomed path which was so deep to walk and was about 40 yards uphill to descending hill. Then on the return to the condo was a narrow slippery rough with deep ruts. Our group can ski very well. However each one of us fell in this area each and every day. Twice daily. We made videos of our navigation struggles if Vrbo or owners are interested in viewing. Needless to say we won’t be staying at Sitzmark condos again next year. The hot water tank also needs a size upgrade. A few of us had to take cold showers. Lastly. The signage on the building is very difficult to find during the day and at night. We did love the purgatory area. We have just stayed at nicer ski in ski out rentals. This was our 4 th year there and we plan on returning next year.

Response from VrboOwner on 22 May 2022
Thank you for leaving a review. Your feedback is important to us. Ski-in/out is a category we choose to show guests the property is very close to the slopes. It does not mean you can literally ski from your doorstep out - most properties you often have to walk through a building, take an elevator, walk a little bit, etc. and the condition of the ski run varies as the weather and amount of snow varies. We will certainly pass along the hot water tank recommendation to our homeowner for their consideration. Like most hot water tanks, some time between showers is required to let the tank refill. We're so glad you loved the Purg area and we do hope you come stay with us again. Call us and let us know what your needs are and we can help you choose a condo perfect for you and your group. We hope to see you next year!

Nice Condo

The place was nice overall except we brought our side by sides to go riding up in Silverton and we stopped up by the condo to unload our luggage and the neighbor in the corner was very rude and reported us to the resort saying we were parked up by the condo and were threatened with a fine. There were little things like the blender in the kitchen did not work and we needed more towels, steps were killer when brining up our luggage and groceries but the back patio was Awesome. There were Tv’s in all the rooms which was nice and beds were comfortable.

This has to be our favorite condo up at Purgatory Resort! Best location right on the mountain for a true ski In experiance! Super cozy place with everything we could need supplied from cooking utensils to sleds and fire wood! Beautiful place with a lot of great decor. 100% recommend unless your planning on having a lively night, we did get in trouble for being loud late in night (i think we need a house next time!)
