Luxury Ski Chalet Rentals in Colorado
Ski homes and chalets in Aspen, Breckenridge and Telluride, with dry Rocky Mountain powder
As featured in
Rocky Mountain powder and big blue skies
Colorado has some of the most famous ski towns in the world, and some of its lightest, driest snow. Aspen began as a silver-mining town in the 1880s, Breckenridge keeps its Victorian main street, Telluride sits in a box canyon in the San Juan Mountains, and Vail was founded in the 1960s by veterans of the 10th Mountain Division. Days are often sunny, the terrain is vast, and the houses are generous.
Our Colorado collection runs to 100+ ski homes and chalets, from mountain lodges with hot tubs and games rooms to ski-in ski-out homes on the slopes.
Here is a guide to the main resorts.

A Victorian mining town on the slopes
Breckenridge has one of the prettiest main streets in the Rockies, lined with Victorian buildings, and a large ski area across several peaks. It is around two hours from Denver, making it one of the most accessible big resorts in Colorado.
Breckenridge homes
A box canyon and a legend
Telluride sits in a box canyon surrounded by peaks, with a free gondola linking the historic town and Mountain Village. Vail, founded in 1962, has one of the largest ski areas in North America, with the famous Back Bowls. Our concierge can arrange transfers, ski hire, lessons and lift passes.
