“BEWARE!!! DON'T STAY HERE!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 January 2012

1 out of 5. I wouldn't even say this deserves a 1 due to the circumstances. I would like to start by saying that the house and the conceriege service was great! However, the owners do not have sufficient funds to pay back your deposit of $1500. So unless you are willing to forgive the cost to stay there ($11,500 as ...we paid) along with the deposit that is supposed to be refunded then I wouldn't stay here. I have posted the email communications below showing where we were granted our full refund stated in an email directly from the owner and then the reversal by the processing company stating there was not adequate funds to do so!! I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS HOUSE TO ANYONE!!!Email showing we were granted our full refund amount:From: The Crested Butte Retreat

“Wonderful boutique hotel for a couple or a large group!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 November 2009

My husband and I live in Crested Butte and chose the Crested Butte Retreat for our June 20, 2009 wedding. We had the rehearsal dinner and reception there as well as lodging for our family and guests. We were extremely pleased with the quality of the Retreat and the staff's attention to detail. The Crested Butte Retreat was the perfect place for our wedding needs. Everyone absolutely loved the Retreat, from the breath-taking views of the surrounding mountains from all rooms and numerous decks to the exceptional breakfast included with their stay.

Not only is this a great place for a larger function, but a wonderful spot for a couple to "Retreat" from the busy world around them. The many hot tubs are great to enjoy after a day of skiing or hiking and the mountain shuttle will pick you up right outside your door!

We were highly impressed with the Crested Butte Retreat and most definately recommend this to anyone wanting a wonderful and intimate experience in Crested Butte, CO

“Very Romantic Getaway”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 October 2009

My husband and I recently returned from CBR and thoroughly enjoyed our stay, Jason made our stay so relaxing, he was attentive to our every need. The retreat is so beautiful in and out. We had a great time in the town, its charm and people made the trip for us. The scenery is breathtaking. We can't wait to go back!

“Classy, Quiet, Relaxed, and Lovely Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 September 2009

We highly recommend the Crested Butte Mountain Retreat for anyone who appreciates a quiet, relaxed, and classy hotel. CB is very laid back and very beautiful; the CBMR reflects the relaxed feel of CB with a very sophisticated yet comfortable atmosphere, decor, and style. We have stayed at the CBMR numerous times over the past few years, including twice in the past two months. The rooms are well appointed and uniquely decorated, with very comfortable bedding and towels. One of the most appealing aspects is the relaxed feel - a la a B&B without the "on demand mass guest groupings"; guests can keep things in the kitchen refrigerator, use the kitchen and living room facilities on their own, and feel the benefit of being in a luxurious private home. One consideration in choosing a room is those with the ability to have open windows for the cool air in the evenings for good sleeping.

The current management team, Jason and Allison Gillette, manage this hotel very professionally and are very helpful to guests as needed.

We particularly like the "no pets" policy.

The fitness equipment is in a small yet organized room; updating and expanding the fitness / workout equipment and facility would further enhance the appeal to those guests who are not skiers.

CBMR is a wonderful option for those who desire both the quiet relaxed enjoyment of Crested Butte and the quiet relaxed comfort of a very unique hotel. It is focused on two target segments: (a) couples getting away for a relaxing weekend; and (b) companies and organizations for a meeting with exercise get away options.

“Great place too relax”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 August 2009

Hiked over to Crested Butte from Aspen and spent two fabulous nights at the retreat! We Mailed a box over with extra stuff (wine and etc.)and they had it waiting for us in our room. We stayed in a standard room and enjoyed the community hot tub right outside our door. We had called ahead and planed a 5 course meal to be prepared by the Private Chef Ian. We had the first couple of courses outside on the deck then moved into one of the two large living rooms living rooms for the Main course and took desert to our room with a movie. A perfect way to complete our day. Fabulous breakfast is included with pretty much what ever you want (delicious omelets). We had booked massages after breakfast at the hotel and then more hot tubs. The Community hot tub stopped working after about 20 minutes so we told the front desk of the problem and went into town for the afternoon and dinner. When we returned after dinner there was a note by our door apologizing that they could not repair the hot tub that day so they left a key to the Vacant Suite above which had a private Hot tub on the deck that we could use. Staff could not have been more thoughtful, even found a water bottle for us to take on our hike back to Aspen. Can't wait to return next year!
