About this house rental
Beautifully restored 1906 log home. 4 bedroom 3 bath located on the main street in the heart of historic Crested Butte. (Easy access form DIA with connecting flights to Gunnison.)
One block to ski shuttle, short walk to shops and restaurants. Tennis courts 1/2 block, park, playgrounds, soccer fields and theater 2 blocks away.
Yasnaya Polyana, ''Bright Meadow'' in Russian and named after the home of Leo Tolstoy, is located on the quiet end of the historic main street. It is conveniently close to the center of town where you can explore great restaurants, galleries and shops. At the same time, the Nordic Trails in the winter and hiking in the summer, are two blocks away. Hop on the bus and in a few minutes you are up the mountain of Crested Butte with its world class downhill skiing.
The home has two separate living room areas, two master bedrooms with their own en-suite bathrooms and central kitchen. Youngsters enjoy bunk beds in a third bedroom. There is an additional bedroom with a queen size bed. One of the living room areas also has a fold-out couch. Perfect for families with kids or friends travelling together. The kitchen is fully equipped with dual fuel stove and lends itself to cooking and apres ski entertaining with unobstructed views of Crested Butte Mountain from the front window. Try out new recipes, or leave cooking to one of the restaurants in town and curl up on a couch in front of the Franklin stove with a good book. Other amenities include 2 steam showers, a large jetted tub, 45'' TV with surround sound, 2 other TVs, wireless internet and more.
There are 3 off-street parking spaces. Please use those before you leave your cars on the street.

The house was perfect for us. Great size, nice yard, and perfect location to explore CB. It is also cool that it is a historic house. Owner was very responsive. Absolutely recommend staying here if you’re visiting CB!

Everything was as advertised. Close to town and we had a great time. FYI - Master bedroom doesn't have a door. Overall the property was clean, nice and convenient to town.

The property was perfect for our group. There are 7 of us that do an annual ski trip and this property was perfect for this years. Great location for getting to the slopes easily then to get to town for dinner and drinks was blocks away.

We rented this place for our friend's 50th bday celebration. It was great. Cool, cabin-like vibe inside and great location. Bus to go to the ski hill was right around the corner and walking distance to anywhere in town.
We would like to return!

Overall, our family had a very nice stay at Yasnaya Polyana with 3 adult couples and 3 children (ages 8, 6 & 3). The property is within short walking distance to the Crested Butte ski shuttle and the charming historic downtown area. We liked the rustic character of the home and had plenty of space for spreading out with the two living rooms and large round table in the kitchen area between the LRs. Beds were comfortable and bathrooms spacious. Excellent communication from owner Ewa and Property Manager was responsive to a couple of minor issues. The property is comprised of two 2-story cottages interconnected by the Kitchen / Dining room which has a high vaulted / beamed ceiling. Washer & Dryer are located in a closet in this section. Each cottage has a Living Room and a bedroom on the ground floor with a larger bedroom and bathroom on the second floor. The north cottage faces Elk Ave with Bedroom 3 & Bathroom 3 on the ground floor and Bedroom 4 & Bathroom 2 on the second floor. The south cottage features a mud-room entrance across from the detached garage and a larger living room, but it has a few quirks that while not a big deal for us, we thought should be noted. Bedroom 1 (King) is located at the top of the stairs with Bathroom 1 but there are not any interior doors to isolate either the bedroom or bathroom. While it was not really an issue for us, noise readily travels up the stairs from the kitchen and living room, and the rest of the family respected our privacy when we were in "residence". Bedroom 2 on the ground floor is a small room with a queen bed and the water heater / boiler in a closet off the room. My daughter and her partner had to open one of the windows in the room to balance the heat from the utility room. We would stay here again.

Charming house in central location. Large kitchen eating area connecting two old houses.

We thoroughly enjoy this home. It is close to CB but still far enough away that there isn't too much traffic. This is our 2nd time staying at this home. Thanks you for sharing your home with us.

Nice property and well located for easy access to the downtown and general Crested Butte area. Nice layout for a small family gathering. The only minor drawback was the lack of doors on one bedroom and its bathroom.

Seven adult family members stayed here for a long weekend ski trip. Great location; close to downtown and shuttle stop. Plenty of space and nice having multiple rooms to hang out. Everything as advertised with the exception the TV in main seating room would not connect to the cable box. Fortunately, there was a tv that worked in a smaller room. Ewa was responsive to the problem but I just did not have time to hassle with a fix during our stay. Local property manager was very helpful throughout process.

Perfect for two couples. Kitchen and eating area are great - photos don’t do it justice. Location great for access to town and highway but intersection can be a bit busy at times. Great bathroom and living room. I would use it again.

Yasnaya Polyana is a beautiful and unique place to stay. It is the quintessential Colorado experience. We loved the unique floor plan. The original 1906 cabin makes up the middle of the house with gathering areas and bedrooms on each end of the house. The house was clean, nicely furnished and appointed and very warm and welcoming. The kitchen was well stocked and fun for preparing meals. We loved having happy hour on the front porch each evening. The location could not have been better. We were within walking distance of downtown Crested Butte. We are very grateful for your strict No Smoking and No Pets Policy. We would love to return when we come back to Crested Butte.
