Great 3 bedroom in River Park!
Great stay! House is actually better than the pictures and is tastefully decorated, cheery and well organized. It was very clean as well. Highly recommended. Would stay there again for sure!

Best View - Ouray & Amphitheater
We loved our stay at Steve's place! My husband said "I don't think I've ever stayed somewhere where you can see a waterfall when you're just sitting on the couch." We loved the balcony and how cozy his space was. The artwork was so fun to look at--from local art to really neat antiques. But if I had one word to describe his place is that it was just so comfortable! My two kids were in absolute heaven here too! We loved it, and will be looking to see if we can book again the next time we can make our way up to Ouray!

Viking Lodge 216 by AvantStay | Easy Ski Access
This was our first time in telluride with our little one and this was a perfect place to stay for 3. We were so close to the gondola and walked everywhere. Everything was walking distance from us. Besides construction that we were unaware of everything else was amazing!

Spacious custom 4 bedroom home in Ouray County
Love love love this place! Perfect location, close to both Ouray and Ridgway. Beautiful view and setting. Loved cooking in the kitchen, sitting on the back porch, watching wildlife. Even woke up early and got to see the Milky Way every morning. Thank you Tara for such a wonderful stay!

The Powderhouse-Cute, Cozy, Downtown, Best Views!
My fiancé, dog and I got to stay at Dan and Angela’s place for 2 weeks. We had an amazing time! The house is SO cozy and charming. We felt right at home :) It was clean, well equipped and had everything we needed. You also can’t beat the views/location. Everything was within a 5 minute walk. Highly recommend! Thank you both.

1889 Victorian Cottage
This little cottage is on the southwest corner of town. We heard a few cars going by at night, otherwise it was very quiet. We could walk to many hiking trails and restaurants. I don’t believe we ever used our car until leaving. The market is small, but adequate for the basics. Prices are high there, so you might decide to pick up groceries elsewhere.

Rio Pecos Adobe, Telluride CO
A truly unique property. Lots of common space to eat, read, relax and listen to some records. Some quirks to the appliances, but all were clearly explained. The decor is an amazing collection of antiques, artifacts, and local Telluride knick-knacks. Ken was very responsive to a couple minor questions. Looking forward to returning!

Sunset Circle Chalét/views/hot tub 6 min to town
Fantastic place! Very close to everything and had a very nice outdoor space. I would highly recommend staying here
Dog friendly vacation rentals in Telluride

IDEAL Location, Dogs Welcome!
This place was more than everything we could have hoped for! Great location, clean, super dog friendly and all the things you need that you hope are in an Airbnb - bathroom necessities, kitchen cookware and spices, etc. Perfect for families :)

Stunning Summer Views & True Ski-In/Ski-Out Access
We loved staying here! Perfect location, perfect set-up. Suzanne and team were very responsive for anything we needed. We did not need much though as everything was perfectly stocked from extra towels to kitchen etc. we plan on booking again next year. I cannot recommend this location enough. Bunk room perfect for kids, main room upstairs was perfect for my parents and my husband and I had the room across from the bunk room. Very cozy but enough space for all to enjoy. Thank you for an incredible stay. They even had sleds in kids closet for some after skiing sledding!

In Town 3 BR, 2 BA Condo, Steps to Lift 7, Grocery
We had a fantastic time. Great spot for a group of friends to stay and ski. Five minutes walk to the chairlift. Stacy was flexible and communicative. Highly recommend and would stay there again.

Restorative Cabin Retreat
Description was spot on and this is definitely a place to get away and relax. Amazing opportunities for stargazing and relaxing by the fire. Also, the location makes for a convenient home base to explore Ouray, Telluride, etc. We would stay again if we were to come back to the area in the future!

~Sutton Suite~Cute! Best location!
Easy check in and check out, great location on Main Street; the apt had everything I needed. Would recommend to anyone coming to Ouray!

1 Bedroom w/Garage - Easy Ski, River & Town Access
We had a great, comfortable stay while we explored Telluride for a couple of days. Everything was provided as described, and it was a nice home base from a great location in a beautiful town. Our minivan was too long for the garage, so Aimee found alternate parking for us that was equally convenient. Note that as of the beginning of June 2025, there’s a little construction along the road by the unit, so you drive between cones to get onto the driveway. This caused no noise or inconvenience, I just note it to make it easier to find.

Bohemian Rhapsody, PETs ok, 500 ft to Gondola
Great spot! Joni was very responsive and helped us with any issues. Parked my car right in front of the house and never had to use it. The location is in a perfect spot.

Wild West Within Reach
Kevin's cabin has stunning views of Mount Sneffels and is surrounded by groves of Aspen trees. It is the most peaceful location we've ever stayed at. Kevin was a very responsive host and was always willing to provide great local recommendations in Telluride and Ouray. I would absolutely recommend staying at his cabin.

Bear Creek Lodge 1 Bedroom - Pool, Sauna & Fitness
We loved everything about Ivan and Franzi's condo and the Bear Creek Lodge. It was so quiet and private. My family loved the huge TV for watching the Super Bowl. I loved the spacious and well stocked kitchen for cooking. The condo is beautifully decorated. The bathroom is renovated with its own heater, and the Master Bed was very comfortable. The Funicular worked well and my family used it every day. The ski and boot storage could not have been more convenient. The shuttle was always prompt when we needed it. Anything we needed, Bear Creek was on top of. Usually not the case when in a condo. They run the lodge more like a hotel than a condo building. We always had the tea available in the lobby after skiing and sat by the enormous fireplace. It was a peaceful place to end our long days on the mountain. My ski kids said Telluride is their favorite! Such a great mountain.

San Sophia Suite
Brian's place was perfect for our annual girlfriend's Mountain Film getaway! It was spacious. comfortable and a great location! Brian was super friendly and a great communicator. We would love to come back again... same time next year!!!

Madeline Forbes 5 Star Residence 1203
Great location in the heart of Mountain Village, close to restaurants, ski school, gondola. Madeline has excellent amenities. Patrick was very responsive and ensured a great stay for our family

Telluride Viking Condo with River & Mountain views
Had a great stay! You can walk to the stores and restaurants. Also had a great trail by the river right outside the condo. The place was clean and had everything I needed. The beds were comfortable.

Viking 314>Riverfront, Pool/Hot Tub, Close2Lifts
Neal was very responsive and his place is close to it all - the slopes, market, shops, restaurants, gondola! Thanks for letting us stay in your place - we had a great trip!

Summer Retreat-Walk to Town, Dining & Festival Fun
We had the most wonderful experience here. Every little detail of this condo was thoughtfully chosen and executed. Beautiful hardware, fixtures, design, bedding, etc. Not one thing I didn't love. This was a perfect place for our family. Claire and Dan were so lovely, communicative and helpful. We would definitely return and recommend to others! Thank you so much Claire and Dan!!

Awesome Two Bedroom Condo In Town
Home away from home in the best place in the world - most convenient location, has everything you need including a responsive and helpful host!

Perfect in-town condo on the River Trail!
Telluride is a beautiful place, and Mindy's place is right near downtown. It was exceptionally nice and comfortable. Easy check-in, nice view down the valley out of the living room windows, easy walking distance to grocery store and other shops. Rooms were clean and well made.

Your guide to Telluride
All About Telluride
Nestled high in the Rocky Mountains of southwestern Colorado, among dramatic granite cliffs, dense pine forests, and some of the tallest peaks in the continental United States, is the former silver and gold mining town of Telluride. Once a regional boomtown that attracted prospectors out west, Telluride held such a significant role in forming the American West that in 1964 the region was designated a National Historic Landmark District. Eventually, the mining economy gave way to the burgeoning ski industry, one of the primary draws to the area today.
People from all around flock to Telluride for its easy access to nature, which begins right at the edge of the small town. The list of outdoor adventures goes on and on: hiking, skiing, fly fishing, paragliding, and whitewater rafting are just a few of the year-round activities on offer. In addition, Telluride’s art district is home to several galleries and museums housed in the town's original Victorian-style buildings, along with street performers and music for a lively downtown scene. There are also brewpubs, cafes, and a top-notch lineup of restaurants sprinkled throughout the central core of Telluride for you to enjoy after a long day of exploring the area's natural beauty.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Telluride
When searching for vacation rentals in Telluride, it is crucial to consider the sorts of activities you will be partaking in. Seasonal conditions in this high-altitude mountain town vary drastically throughout the year, along with the activities, events, and outdoor opportunities available. From May through September, temperatures and weather conditions favor hiking, mountain biking, and river activities. Several festivals take place during this time, like the Telluride Blues & Brews Festival in September. The festival is a three-day event celebrating regional and international musical acts and the area's famous craft brewing scene. The winter months regularly see below-freezing temperatures and heavy snowfall, making for excellent skiing conditions in the surrounding mountains and a great time to look for condo rentals in Telluride.
