About this property

Bear Vista

  • Summary:

    5 Bedroom, 3 bath Log Home with Endless Views! Great Game Room and Hot Tub! Free Shuttle Stop



    The Space:

    Views, Views, and more Views!  Bear Vista is located up on Mt. Crested Butte and takes in fabulous open views up the valley to Meridian Lake.  Sit up high on the wonderful outdoor deck and watch the occasional bear that makes this valley home in the distance. This home is perfectly suited for your next family vacation with 2 living areas, 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, all the while sleeping up to 10 friends and family!  



    Located on Paradise Road where the evenings are quiet and the views are spectacular.  Stand outside the home and the free shuttle will even stop to pick you up or drop you off at the end of the day, now that`s convenient! Step inside this great family home after a long day of activities in Crested Butte, kick your shoes off, and sink into the living room with floor to ceiling windows all positioned to take in the fabulous views. On the main level there is the great room with the fully remodeled granite and stainless kitchen with custom cabinetry, the living and the dining room.  There is a great wood burning stove and access to the large outdoor deck for that perfect cup of morning coffee or that end of day time with friends.  Also on this level is a full bath and two bedrooms each with a queen bed and luxurious mattresses and bedding.  Take a jaunt up stairs to the master retreat.  The master bedroom has a fantastic King bed with vaulted ceilings and a gorgeous antler chandelier.  There`s even a cozy reading nook next to the bed.  There is a master bath just outside the door to the bedroom and the loft area which overlooks the great room has a desk should you need to do any work on vacation (we hope not), and a small sofa with TV.  



    The bottom level of the home is perfect for the kids and couldn`t be more fun.  There is a fantastic living area with large flat panel TV, a great game table, and a ping pong table for a friendly game to see who`s the best.  There is a full bath on this level and two bedrooms.  One bedroom has a full bed and the other has two sets of twin bunks.  You`ll love the location of this cabin regardless of the season and will definitely want to book it year after year for those great family memories!



    Guest Access:

    Guests have access to the entire home with the exclusion of some owner`s locked storage cabinets.

Awesome View

The house was perfect for 3 of our family and our friends (family of 3). It was better than staying in busy downtown and we were closer to the hiking areas we wanted to check out. The view from inside and on the back deck were awesome.

Fall stay in Crest butte

Nice location near the mountain with great views from the deck. Plenty of hiking and mountain biking near by. The only negative is that the main gathering spot (kitchen, dining, family area) gets blasted by the afternoon sun coming in from the two story window. There are shades, but the room stills gets warm and only one small window by the sink opens. Also, the main upper bedroom gets warm too. All in all, a good stay.

Beautiful view!! At night, we could see a sky full of stars. Extremely peaceful and relaxing. Pronghorn antelope were in the field. The rooms were spacious, notably the primary bedroom. Wonderful kitchen, main room, and fantastic deck. And all just a few minutes from Crested Butte.

Cute chalet house

We froze the first night because we didn’t know how to operate the thermostats. Management was very responsive the next morning. Owner should include instructions for future guests. Hot tub is a bonus! Upgrade pillows please and you’d get 5 stars. Overall, We had a wonderful stay.

Great Location

Our stay was overall really great. The location worked out really well as the views from the deck were amazing, and it’s a short shuttle ride over to the mountain. If you want to go into town as well it’s a quick connection at the main lodge. The house was clean and well maintained. The one negative that should be addressed is the beds - many of them were very uncomfortable and really impacted the quality of sleep for our group. The members sleeping in the bunk area were especially critical. I hope that this can be addressed in future stays.

Pretty Nice Place, Not Too Far From Town - Nice Views from the Deck

We had a pleasant four-night stay in this home. The home was comfortable and well appointed. There was plenty of room for three families. The side of the home with the deck faces open space, which was quite nice. The drive into town was relatively short. The kitchen was fully equipped. We had only two issues with the place: (1) there were quite a few mice running around inside the home, which bothered some of our party (both kids and adults); and (2) the brick platform/pad that the wood burning stove sits on is a tripping/toe-breaking hazard that several of us had unpleasant encounters with. All in all, we had a nice stay, but there are a couple things that could be addressed to make this an even nicer and more comfortable property.

Lovely View

We stayed in this house for a ski trip over the holidays. The house was very nice, cozy and clean. Things we loved most: gorgeous view, hot tub with view, and the large basement which was a great kid hangout area. To get to the ski village and back, there is a shuttle that runs every 30 minutes. The wall to the master bedroom upstairs does not go all the way up to the ceiling, so you can hear everything and see lights from the living/dining/kitchen. Overall, we would definitely recommend this house any time of the year!

Fantastic vacation in great house

We stayed for a week over Spring Break and the house was exactly what we'd hoped for. We had two families total (4 adults and 7 kids ranging in age between 14 to 6 years old). The house fit us all perfectly. The views off the back deck were amazing and we saw many fox and dog sledders. The house was well stocked and had everything we needed. Additionally, the fact that the shuttle passes right in front of the house and dropped off and picked up at our mailbox was a plus. With 11 people that made it very convenient to get to the base of the mountain. We will definitely come back to Crested Butte and would rent this house again for sure.
