We (2 humans and a dog) had a wonderful stay at Karla's cottage! Parked the car upon arrival and didn't use it again--loved being in walking distance to everything in town. The cabin is beautiful and comfortable, and we especially loved having the fenced-in yard. Would love to stay again!
This unassuming little house from the outside is super cozy and comfy on the inside. The backyard is so pretty and peaceful. Location is perfect. Walkable to Elk Ave, no problem. Perfect for our stay this visit.
Great spot! Easy access to Mt. Crested Butte via free shuttle, and super close to town. The only *notes* I have is that the downstairs shower water temperature was inconsistent (warm and then dropped quickly to super cold), and the backyard had about 5 feet of snow, which completely covered any area for dogs to run around. There was a thin path about 2 feet wide shoveled to the back shed, but again, not really a yard for dogs, which was a bummer for our pup.
Lovely place otherwise, just don’t expect much of a yard in the winter months.
Our family of 3 plus our dog had a lovely stay at this property. It was even nicer than expected from the pictures. Well stocked and excellent location in town. The enclosed backyard was great for our pup. We really enjoyed it!
Karla’s Cabin is even better than the pictures. Our two dogs loved the back yard and the accommodations were super comfy. We appreciate the obvious thoughtfulness and care that has gone into this sweet space. We enjoyed our stay and will be back again. Thank you!
We visited Crested Butte for first time with our adult daughter and her dog. The location was amazing! A few blocks from the Main Street. Convenient to beautiful hikes.
Great house to share with another couple or a couple of family members. We loved how close it was to town! The kitchen and living space was great. Unfortunately the weather wasn't great so we didn't get to enjoy the nice backyard.
We loved our stay. Karla’s Cottage is close to downtown, comfy and cozy. We enjoyed the views from the upstairs bedroom, the open floor plan in the kitchen/family room, and the fenced in yard for our dog. The wood burning stove was a big plus. We will be back!
Such an adorable cottage! Will definitely stay again. So quaint, two blocks to downtown Crested Butte. The neighborhood is amazing. The locals are also friendly. Fantastic hike. Overall a wonderful weekend. Thank you so much. BTW, love the little backyard really enjoyed just sitting by the fire with my little dog.
Clean little house in town. Grocery and hardware stores are walkable, as is Elk Street. The back yard is a nice feature with some grass for your dogs and magpies for clean-up.
Quaint cabin-style house within walking distance to town center
Very nice cabin, thoughtfully outfitted and very clean. Nice outdoor space to relax and chill with the dog. Only negative was a mattress in the downstairs bedroom that should be replaced.
A beautifully remodeled historic home with loads of charm and an absolutely perfect location. 50 feet to the free shuttle stop, a block to the Nordic Center, two blocks to Elk Avenue and close to Clark's Market, which is your grocery store in CB. We stayed for 9 days in ski season. The woodstock was a nice touch. Highly recommended.

Perfect house for our family ski trip
This house was well located, close to downtown and the bus route. It was well stocked with the basics (detergent, fire wood, stuff for cooking, etc). Our only complaint was the lack of a kitchen table. The bar sits four, but if you have more people than that, someone is standing or sitting on the couch. We'd definitely stay here again.
Awesome house right off Elk ave. Had a rustic mountain cabin feel and very cozy after a long day on the slopes. House was very close to the shuttle pick up and had parking for our rent car. We were able to walk to all the restaurants and coffee shops. The only thing that would make this house even more amazing would be a hot tub on the patio. A+ rental. Highly recommend.
My husband, 5 year old daughter and I had a great spring break at Karla's Cottage (oh and border collie!). It was the perfect size for our little family. Near everything on foot. Fabulous little play space with toys and games for the kiddo. Nice backyard space for the dog. We visit CB all the time, and this space was just perfect what what we needed for the week. We'd definitely stay here again. Thank you!
