With quality finishes, mountain views, great amenities, good size, this condo is a great choice for your visit. Please read on for more details.
The Property:
This condo is larger than your average 2 bedroom. When you enter, there is a mud room with a coat closet, storage cubbies, and a bench so you can sit down to remove those ski boots. Head left and you'll find the that the living room, dining room, and kitchen are combined into one large space. The living room has a comfy leather furniture set that will seat your whole group. Tongue and Groove wood ceilings, plush carpeting, upscale tables & lamps combine with the warm gas fireplace, the large HDTV, and windows framing mountain views to create a really nice space. The living room also has a sliding door to the large covered balcony. The dining area has a big table that will seat 6 with room to spare. There's also a buffet table for family style meal service or pantry storage. The kitchen is fully equipped, and then some. Don't be surprised to find some spices, oils, condiments, or other essentials. It features granite tiles and recently upgraded appliances, and everything you need to whip up some delicious meals.
Head back past the entry and in-unit laundry and you'll find the two bedrooms. Both of them are master suites with large beds, private bathrooms and TVs. The first bedroom is really big. It includes a King size bed with matching furniture that includes a dresser as well as a chest, with room to spare for an armchair too. This bedroom also has a sliding glass door that provides direct access to the balcony. The bathroom within this bedroom has a vanity with a beautiful, long granite slab counter, undermounted sink, and custom river pebble backsplash. There's plenty of space for two people's things. A pocket door allows for privacy in the rest of the bathroom, which features a glass enclosed walk in shower. The shower head is nice and high, and the river pebble theme from the vanity is extended to the shower floor. The second bedroom is not quite so huge, but it is still a good size. The Queen bed is plush and has built in shelves for a glass of water and dual wall mounted lights for reading in bed. The bathroom within this second bedroom also features a granite vanity with undermounted sink and river pebble backsplash. Also like the first bathroom, the other half of the bathroom is private from the vanity area, but it is a little larger than the first bathroom. It has a shower / bathtub combo with a built in shelf at the end of the tub.
The Location's biggest benefit: Ski In Ski Out:
The term "ski in ski out" varies a lot. So we want to be clear: To Ski Out, you'll actually just walk right to the Gondola or the Christie Peak Express, since they're very slightly uphill from the condo. But the walk is only 100 yards, and you're on a heated pathway, so the walking is very easy. Bonus! The Ski School is only 50 yards away, so close! Beginners or kids in ski school can come home to this condo very easily when they're done with lessons, or if they're having a bad day. When it's time to come home, to Ski In, you really can ski right back to the building. Conditions permitting, of course. The last 50 yards or so are not on a groomed trail, with no snowmaking, so in early or late season, you might walk that last 50 yards to your door. You'd walk a lot farther if you were going up and down the halls of One Steamboat Place or the Sheraton, and you'd pay a lot more too! Once you've skied back to the building, just pop your skis or boards onto the ski valet rack. This ski in ski out access is so easy, you'll definitely be able to come home for lunch, which can save a lot of money. But you might also stop back at the condo to add or shed a layer of clothing, to change goggles, mittens, or maybe just to hydrate or take a break. This location makes your ski vacation what it should be - easy and fun!
The Location's other benefits:
This condo is surrounded by everything you could want or need. Right across the street, you'll find a grocery and liquor store, a coffee and breakfast place, two options for lunch or dinner, and a ski and snowboard rental shop where we have a nice discount pre-negotiated for you. This condo is also adjacent to Gondola Square. You don't even have to cross the street. Just walk along the promenade, which wraps all the way around the ski area base. It is heated to be free of snow for easy walking or strolling. You'll find ski rental shops, ski tuning shops, clothing and apparel shops, restaurants, bars, the ticket office, the ski school, the mountain coaster, ice skating, free concerts, and more. That's just in ski season! During spring, summer, or fall, there's so much more. Ski trails turn into grassy meadows, hiking and biking trails. The snow melts and Burgess Creek appears. It flows through the base area and right past the condo. The flows through the base area are at a controlled volume, so the water level is always perfect for dipping your toes. Along the creek, are lots of Adirondack chairs, picnic tables, and even a couple of beach areas. Kids will have a blast! The mountain coaster is open in winter and summer, but in summer, you also have lots of other fun family activities, such as mini-golf, a ropes course, tubing, and more. There are art shows, events and festivals, movie nights, free concerts, it's a great place to be! Also, right across the street, you'll find the Burgess Creek trail and the Mt. Werner trail, which are paved path that leads down to Casey's Pond, the Yampa River and the Yampa River Core Trail. From here, you could walk, jog, stroll, or fish your way right into downtown Steamboat, 3 miles away.

As such, all amenities can not be guaranteed to be available at all times. Please advise us when or before booking if you have questions about a specific property amenity so that we can give you the most accurate information possible for your dates.
** Air Conditioning - Most mountain resort properties were not built with air conditioning. During most hours of the day and weeks of the year, AC is not needed. Summer nights are cool and fans are provided at most properties. Check the average high and low temperatures and weather forecast for your dates of travel, and look at the list of amenities to see if AC or fans are part of the rental property and look for ceiling fans in photos.
** Group Sizes, High Occupancy Fees, & Maximum Occupancy - Some properties use a “High Occupancy Fee” to “raise the rate” for larger groups, and are thus able to list a lower nightly rate for smaller groups. Each rental agreement and associated rates are for a specific group size. Guests must enter the correct and maximum group size at the time of booking. The agreement requires a guest to confirm the group size and subsequently, to disclose any changes to the planned group size, which may result in an increase, or decrease, to the total cost, and may result in a security deposit becoming required.
** Video & Noise Monitoring - Please note that noise monitoring devices, and security cameras, do exist on the exterior of the property. Cameras are positioned to cover all entrances and exits of the home. Cameras are present to ensure the property remains secure and safe, as well as to ensure that guests are honest and upfront about their planned use of the property. If you plan to bring more people than you've indicated, more dogs than indicated, to host a party or event, or do not intend to respect neighbors or the value and quality of the property, then this is not the place for you, and you should not book the property. For normal, respectful groups, we are sorry that these statements and measures are necessary. Security cameras and noise monitoring devices are an example and demonstration that the property's owners are taking steps to ensure the home remains available for rental, and in good condition, for your benefit. Please let us know if you have any concerns.
** Cleaning Fees & Lengthy Rental Periods - The standard cleaning fee quoted as part of any booking is for the final cleaning, which is to be performed after the rental period has ended. For guests who are booking a lengthy stay of more than one week, a mid stay-cleaning fee equal to the final cleaning fee may apply for the second week, third week, and so on. If you are booking for a lengthy stay, please contact us before booking online to discuss your group, your dates, the rates, the cleaning schedule, etc.
