This property is a bit dated but we found the location super convenient for our 3-days of skiing/snowboarding. It was just me and husband so perfectly cozy. Loved the wood-burning fireplace and that we each had our own bathroom. Everything was clean and kitchen was well stocked enough for us to cook a few meals in the condo. Like many other reviewers commented, the hot tub was out of order while we were there, so if having one is a high priority, this might not be the spot for you. We'd definitely stay here again.
The two of us had a great stay. We were looking for something clean and affordable with ski in/ski out access and we got exactly that. Good size for two adults, maybe the size of a hotel suite.
The good:
- We were able to walk 5 steps out the front door, strap our gear on and ski right onto the beginners area. From there, one short lift ride up and you're at the main Purgatory Express lift and the village.
- Quick 5 minutes walk to the village shops and restaurants.
- Condo was clean
- Nice, hot showers
- Cozy
- Comfy enough beds
The not-great:
- 10 digit code to access the unit is difficult to remember and enter with cold fingers
- Lighting is very dim
- Living furniture (couch and chair) are worn out and not very comfortable. There is space for 3 people to sit.
- The cookware is not in good order and should be replaced. I would not use the fry pans.
None of this was a deal breaker for us as we were just looking for a clean place to rest after a day on the slopes. More supportive furniture would have been very nice to relax on after a long day. We didn't cook for this trip outside of heating food in the microwave and toast so we didn't necessarily need the kitchen. Purgy's also serves a good meal for dinner. If skiing, the location is totally worth accepting the "not-greats". I would not choose to stay here again if not for the ski in/out access or if there were more than two of us.
- The living furniture is ve
I recieved an email over a week out that the laundry and hot tub was closing and would not be available for our stay. I called vacasa, the mgt company to ask to change units, as it looked like they had plenty of options available. Long story short 4 calls and promises not kept, they gave me a discount.
The property was Very dated, Musty, im cool with a retro vibe, but this was just old. Positives: Space was large, view of mountains and short walk to base area. You had to enter a 9 digit code everytime you came into the unit? That was a pain!
My family stayed at this condo for spring break. It is right on the Columbine run and it was easy to ski in and ski out. We will for sure be staying here again!
