We are thrilled to host you during the stunning Crested Butte winter. The heavy snowfall and unique mountain environment create a truly magical experience here, offering unparalleled views of winter storms rolling through the peaks. To ensure your stay is as enjoyable and safe as possible, here is some friendly but important professional guidance regarding our beautiful winter conditions: ❄️ General Winter Travel & Conditions Winter in Crested Butte requires flexibility and preparedness. Heavy snow can impact travel timelines significantly. Please keep the following in mind: • Road Conditions: Roads and driveways will become icy. Mountain passes (like Monarch Pass) may close temporarily during severe weather. • Air Travel: Flights into and out of nearby airports can be delayed or canceled. We strongly recommend guests remain flexible with their travel plans and be prepared for potential changes. 🏠 The Overlook: Property Specific Winter Notes The deep mountain snow creates unique conditions specific to our property that we ask you to be aware of: • Snow Plowing & Driveway Access: We contract with a reliable, high-volume plowing company. However, during heavy storms, their schedule is subject to major delays. • The plow may arrive early (e.g., 5 AM) or be delayed for a couple of days after a large accumulation. • The driveway can accumulate deep snow and may be icy, especially where it meets the road. • The plow will create snow berms at the end of the driveway, and you may need to shovel around your vehicle to clear a path. • Crucially: Please be careful not to block the plow and be prepared to temporarily shuffle vehicles while the crew is working. • Property Hazards: • Deck Access: The deck can be covered in snow for days or even weeks until crews can safely clear it. • Roof Snow & Ice: The roof will naturally shed snow and ice. Please be aware of falling snow/ice when walking near the house, even on sunny days. • Fencing: Snow accumulation can be very high, potentially allowing pets to walk right over the fence. Please monitor your pets closely. • Steep Embankment: DO NOT attempt to walk or ski down the steep embankment to the fields below. This area is prone to avalanches and is extremely dangerous for both people and pets. 🚶 Safety Reminder While the challenges of winter make this environment special, safety must always be taken seriously. • Slippery Surfaces: Walking on paths and in town can be very slippery. Always watch your step. • Hidden Obstacles: Deep snow can quickly cover and hide objects, uneven terrain, or holes. • Vehicle Safety: Vehicles can slide off the road very easily on ice and snow—always drive slowly and cautiously. We appreciate you taking the time to review these notes. We hope you enjoy the spectacular winter that only Crested Butte can offer! Welcome to your perfect Crested Butte getaway!

Pet Friendly + Fenced Yard We welcome well-behaved dogs! The yard is fenced and accessible via an XL dog door. Please note that in winter, snow can build up enough for dogs to walk over the fence—so leash walks may be needed. Renters must pick up after pets. If you’re sensitive to pet allergens, this may not be the best fit, as the home does host dogs between deep cleanings. Small dogs may be able to fit through the 4” gaps used for winter snow removal around the deck.
