Managed by Traverse Hospitality — local, Superhost-rated, 4.83★ across 36 stays. ♡
The Space:

✔ South-facing deck stays warm and dry until October
✔ 2-car garage + driveway = up to 4 cars off-street

Guest Access:
Self check-in via keypad — code is sent the day before arrival along with our digital guidebook covering trails, restaurants, ski shuttles, and altitude tips. Guests have access to the entire home including all five bedrooms, all bathrooms, the kitchen, sun room, basement game room, the south-facing deck, and the 2-car garage for vehicle and gear storage. The driveway holds two additional cars.
The Neighborhood:
The Shamrock is on Ridge View — a quiet wooded residential street one mile west of downtown Leadville's National Historic Landmark District.
✔ 1 mile to Harrison Avenue (downtown's restaurant/brewery row) — 5-min drive or 20-min walk
✔ City Market grocery: 1 mile (stop on the way in to stock the kitchen)
✔ Mineral Belt Trail trailhead: 0.5 mile from the door (paved 11.6-mile loop, ski/bike/run all year)
✔ Tabor Opera House + National Mining Hall of Fame & Museum: 1.5 miles
✔ Ski Cooper (locals' mountain, no lift lines): ~15 minutes
✔ Twin Lakes (summer fishing/boating, Mount Elbert trailhead): ~25 minutes
✔ East and west mountain views from the home — both sunrise and sunset
Getting Around:
The Shamrock has a 2-car garage plus a driveway — meaning four cars (or two cars plus a roof-box-ready van) park off-street, which is rare in Leadville. A car is essential for this property: downtown Leadville is one mile away, Ski Cooper is ~15 minutes, Copper Mountain ~35, and Vail/Beaver Creek ~45 — there is no public transit between Leadville and the resorts. CMC's free in-town shuttle covers a small loop downtown but does not reach Ridge View or the resorts. Allow extra time for snow/ice conditions Nov–April; plowing on Ridge View is reliable but Leadville averages 100+ inches of annual snow.
Other Things to Note:
ALTITUDE — Leadville sits at 10,200 ft, the highest incorporated city in North America. Some guests experience altitude symptoms (headache, fatigue, mild nausea) the first 24 hours. Hydrate aggressively, take it easy on day one, skip alcohol the first night, and consider travel insurance if you're prone to altitude sickness — we cannot offer refunds for altitude-related issues.
NO A/C — Leadville stays cool year-round at 10,200 ft; A/C is not standard in any home here and is rarely needed. Summer nights drop to the 40s.
NO HOT TUB — This home does not have a hot tub. If a hot tub is essential, ask us about other Traverse properties.
NO PETS — This is not a pet-friendly home.
PARKING — 2-car garage + driveway fits up to 4 vehicles total off-street. Garage is included in the rental — store skis, bikes, roof boxes, and cars.
WILDLIFE — You may encounter local wildlife (foxes, deer) and the occasional small critter that's part of mountain living on the wooded edge of town. Doors stay closed; we maintain ongoing pest control.
LICENSE — Lake County Land Use STR license #2025-069.
GUIDEBOOK — A digital guidebook with check-in info, restaurant recs, trail maps, and ski-day logistics is sent via email link the day before arrival. This is the only path to your check-in info, so please look for it.
Interaction with Guests:
We are local Leadville-based property managers. Self check-in via keypad means you can arrive late without coordinating; we send the code, the digital guidebook, and an introduction text the day before arrival. We're available by phone, text, or message 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. for anything during your stay — restaurant recommendations, trail conditions, plumbing emergencies, whatever — and we run a 24/7 emergency line for urgent issues outside those hours. We don't drop in unannounced.

The house was perfect for our family. It had plenty of space for everyone, in a great neighborhood that was close to town, but still quiet and peaceful. We will definitely stay there again!
This is an older property but had everything we needed. It was great to our extended family and a nice big dining area for family game night! It was easy to communicate, check in and out. We would stay again
The house is very nice and the check in and check out were painless. Much easier than the typical VRBO property. House was never quite as warm as we'd like, but that's to be expected staying in Leadville in the winter. Great place!
The house worked out perfectly for our extended family week in Leadville. 6 separate rooms gave everyone a bedroom- Close to Safeway, First Baptist Church…We will be booking the same place next year.
This unit was great for our group. We needed lots of bedrooms and a full kitchen and this place had both of those! The home is old and has not been updated at all except one bathroom.
PROS:
- kitchen had everything you could possibly need to cook and be comfortable
- the view from the den was incredible
- tons of space to hold lots of people
- a two car garage
- easy check-in / check-out
- location was easy to get to anything g we needed
- full size washer & dryer
CONS:
- some beds were queen (3) and some beds were full (3)
- the smell in the house may remind you of your great-grandma’s house
The management company was super easy to work with when we had some issues regarding check-out time. We would stay here again if we had lots of folks in tow.
