The Property:
This single family home is an older home that has been updated in critical places.  All of the bathrooms were fully renovated in Autumn 2021, and new kitchen appliances will arrive before ski season.  The main level of the home includes 3 living room areas, the kitchen, dining room, a full bathroom, and a foyer.  Of course it also has access to the outdoor spaces, which includes a covered patio with grill, a very large front yard, and a small fenced back yard.  Upstairs you will find all 4 bedrooms, the laundry room, and another bathroom. 

The main level of the home has a good flow. The kitchen connects the foyer and game room to the dining room and den.  The game room is open to the main living room.  From the main living room, you can walk past the bathroom and stairs into the den.  There are also 3 different doors providing you with access to the outdoor spaces.  The front yard is quite a good size, and flat.  It's a great place for yard games or building a snowman.  In the main living room, a comfy new leather sofa and armchair with ottoman offer a great place to relax.  The wood burning fireplace and massive 65 inch HDTV will also enhance your enjoyment of this room.  The game room is a large open space that can function however you like.  With lots of floor space, its a great place for kids to play, and would be a perfect place for a Christmas tree.  The game room includes a drop leaf table and an assortment of games to enjoy.  There's also a high top table for 2 and a bench where you can take a seat to put on or take off your ski boots.  The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need, including lots of storage space in the cabinets.  It has direct access to the covered patio and the gas grill for those who like to BBQ.  It also has a handy pass through to the dining room, making meal service and clean up easy.  The dining room has seating for 6 to 8 with bar seating for 4 more.  The den is and dining room are one larger space, like the main living room and game room.  The den has another leather sofa and armchair surrounding a gas fireplace.  It's a great place to relax with a book, laptop, or your other mobile entertainment devices.  The den also provides direct access to the fenced back yard.  

At the top of the stairs is a landing which provides access to all 4 bedrooms and the laundry room.  Bedroom 1 is quite large, with more than enough space for the King sized bed set and a seating or dressing area.  Bedroom 2 is also quite large.  Again it has a King sized bed set with space to spare.  It also includes an HDTV and lots of floor space.  Both of these first two bedrooms would have plenty of space for a crib or pac n play.  Bedroom 3 is another large room ideal for couples.  It features a Queen sized bed and an office area.  The desk can be raised if you prefer to stand and includes a monitor to help make your work more efficient.  Bedroom 4 is last but not least.  In fact it might be as big as bedrooms 1 and 2, just with a different shape.  It has 2 Twin beds plus 1 Double bed, making it ideal for kids or singles.  

Location:
Old Town Steamboat Springs is the place to be.  It's the original part of town that was founded back in the 1800s.  Old Town is where you'll find the vast majority of shopping, restaurants, nightlife, activities, and events.  Beyond all the shopping and dining, some of the more notable Old Town attractions within walking distance include Stehley Park, the Butcherknife Canyon Trail, the Yampa River and Yampa River Core Trail, the rodeo grounds, the ice rink, the Old Town Hot Springs, and don't miss out on Howelsen Hill, Steamboat's city owned downhill and nordic ski resort and park.  If you're a biker, from this home you can ride right up Emerald Mountain or right up Buffalo Pass.  There are literally hundreds of miles of trails right out your door.  Of course many people visit Steamboat Springs to go skiing or riding at the big mountain, the Steamboat Ski Resort.  The mountain base is only 3.5 miles away.  Driving there is easy and parking is free, but if you're anything like a Steamboat local, you won't drive and park.  You'll find that taking one of Steamboat's frequent free buses is the way to go.  Those free buses pick up on Lincoln Avenue and come by about every 10 minutes.  The walk to Lincoln Avenue's 5th street bus stop is pretty easy and pretty flat.  It's just 1/3 of a mile along Short Street and you're there. 

** Please note - Old Town is such a great place to be, the houses are built pretty close together, and lots of us locals call it home.  This vacation rental is surrounded by good people, good neighbors, and if you plan to be a good neighbor too, you'll love this location!  However, if your group includes members who might be loud, disrespectful, or negligent, this is not the property for you.

** Air Conditioning - Most mountain resort properties were not built with air conditioning.  During most hours of the day and weeks of the year, AC is not needed.  Summer nights are cool and fans are provided at most properties.   Check the average high and low temperatures and weather forecast for your dates of travel, and look at the list of amenities to see if AC or fans are part of the rental property and look for ceiling fans in photos.
** Pets & Fees - “Pet Friendly” means Dog Friendly only.  If a property is pet friendly, then a per pet, per night fee will apply.  Some online booking sites, such as VRBO, do not allow us to list the maximum number of pets per property.  If you are renting a pet friendly property, and will have more than one dog, please reach out prior to booking to verify if the home will allow more than one dog.  Additional fees will apply for more than 1 dog.
** Group Sizes, High Occupancy Fees, & Maximum Occupancy - Some properties use a “High Occupancy Fee” to “raise the rate” for larger groups, and are thus able to list a lower nightly rate for smaller groups.  Each rental agreement and associated rates are for a specific group size.  Guests must enter the correct and maximum group size at the time of booking.  The agreement requires a guest to confirm the group size and subsequently, to disclose any changes to the planned group size, which may result in an increase, or decrease, to the total cost, and may result in a security deposit becoming required.
** Video & Noise Monitoring - Please note that noise monitoring devices, and security cameras, do exist on the exterior of the property. Cameras are positioned to cover all entrances and exits of the home.  Cameras are present to ensure the property remains secure and safe, as well as to ensure that guests are honest and upfront about their planned use of the property.  If you plan to bring more people than you've indicated, more dogs than indicated, to host a party or event, or do not intend to respect neighbors or the value and quality of the property, then this is not the place for you, and you should not book the property.  For normal, respectful groups, we are sorry that these statements and measures are necessary.  Security cameras and noise monitoring devices are an example and demonstration that the property's owners are taking steps to ensure the home remains available for rental, and in good condition, for your benefit. Please let us know if you have any concerns.
