Sleeps 23, 8 BR w/ full bath, majestic views on 35 acres, walk to town

Welcome to our serene mountain retreat, a perfect setting for a memorable family getaway or a private gathering with friends. As a private residential property, we maintain a peaceful and quiet environment for all of our guests and neighbors. Our home comfortably sleeps 23 guests, with a total gathering capacity of 40 people on site at any time. We ask that all guests respect our community's residential nature. For a complete list of our property rules, please refer to our detailed welcome information.

This unique, remarkable home is set on 35 tranquil acres on Gibson’s Ridge, offering stunning views of the surrounding mountains. The primary home consists of six bedrooms, seven and a half baths, thirteen rooms in total, and is a short walk to the historic town of Crested Butte.

The home abounds with warmth, quality, and distinction. You’ll find an extraordinary, lofty great room with ample windows, breathtaking views, and a two-story natural rock fireplace. The great room seamlessly flows into the dining area, which opens to a large stone terrace with a built-in fire pit, outdoor dining space, landscaped gardens, and a hot tub. The full-featured kitchen with high-end Thermador appliances and reclaimed antique hewn beams is perfect for preparing group meals.

The main level also includes a game room with a pool table, full bar, and a home theater with a Sonus Fabre sound system. Beyond this, there is a second master bedroom with a private entrance, a queen-sized Murphy bed, jacuzzi tub, and rain shower. Guests can also enjoy the exercise room, a steam room, a boot room, and a locker room with four custom-built spaces to organize gear.

On the upper level, there are five en-suite bedrooms, including a spacious 740 sq. ft. master suite with a sitting area, office, natural rock fireplace, and deck. Kids or adults will enjoy the massive five-bed bunk room with an adjoining deck.

A recently completed 1,300 sq. ft. two-bedroom condo is available for your stay. Located just 50 feet from the main house, it features a full kitchen, steam room, two bathrooms, and a massive private balcony with incredible views.

No expense was spared on the high-end sound system throughout the property. You’ll find multiple outdoor speakers and subwoofers surrounding the rustic outdoor fire pit, alfresco dining space, back patio, and hot tub. The multi-purpose space is a highlight, offering a state-of-the-art sound system and a laser lighting system for an elevated evening. This versatile room can also be used as a yoga room, a playroom, or an additional dining space.

The on-site pond, healthy with bass, can be used for catch-and-release fly fishing or stand-up paddle boarding. Neighboring access to the Green Lake trail connects you to the largest single-track system in the U.S.

The home has been called "the Ashram"—restorative and peaceful, yet with an atmosphere that can be enjoyed to the fullest.

If your soul is seeking something big, wild, and spacious, Crested Butte is the place to get it, and "The Big Mine" is the perfect vantage point.

We are year-round residents and have a full-time property manager available for any property-related needs or issues during your stay.

We include all the basics for a seamless stay. You’ll find a full spice rack, cookware, high-end Aesop products in every bathroom, and a bevy of instruments for those musically inclined. If you find anything that is missing, please let us know, and we will do our best to get it for you quickly.

We had the most amazing weekend at Theresa’s place! We stayed with our entire wedding party of 23 and couldn’t have asked for a better place to make memories. The house was plenty spacious for all of us, stocked full of amenities, and set to a breathtaking backdrop of CB. The entire staff who helped us throughout the weekend were amazing too. We never wanted to leave!

Stunning home and gorgeous property/view!

Everything about our stay was amazing! The home was even more beautiful in person and the views were one in a million. My family and friends created amazing memories here during our stay and everyone enjoyed the property and all amenities to the fullest! The pool table, bar, movie room, fire places, fire pit, spa, BBQ, and every room was enjoyed on our trip and it was nothing short of amazing. The owner and property manager were both extremely kind and responsive. Couldn't have asked for better hosts! We owe a great debt to them for welcoming us to their home and helping us throughout our stay. Thank you! 20/10 would recommend a stay here!

Wonderful home for family gathering

We loved our stay in CB! This home was a great fit for our family, 4 couples and a baby. It was nice that each bedroom had an ensuite bathroom. We loved the game room, theater room, steam room and hot tub! Made many meals in the well-equipped kitchen. The team was really responsive to all of our questions and requests and the home was gorgeously appointed and cared for. A solid 15 minute walk to town in the winter, but do-able.

Mom’s 80th Birthday

Our family all gathered together for my mom’sbirthday celebration/reunion. The house provided us places to gather but gave everyone their own space when needed. The house is amazing and really has everything you need and so much more. It snowed heavily before we got there and it was magical, but the driveway was always plowed. Amazing stay in Crested Butte.

We celebrated our tenth anniversary with a group of 16 people. Our group included a ten month old and two (small) dogs. The view might be among the best in Colorado from any residential property I've been to in my 20 years here. It felt like having our own private resort (think: Devil's Thumb Ranch) without other guests or staff everywhere. There is a long table (not pictured) that comfortably fit our group for meals together, which was really helpful and fun. This place has a ton of charm, high-end furniture and art, and is thoughtfully decorated. We loved the outdoor spaces - we spent tons of time on the patio, in the hot tub, and on the property. We enjoyed our stay, but it definitely felt like a splurge and a bit overpriced at 4500/night (5700 a night including taxes and fees). That said, it is unique and a lovely place for a special occasion. I could see this being an absolutely magical place to hold a wedding or a family reunion.
