Creekside C - 3 Bedrooms, 3.5 Bathrooms, Sleeps 10 - Downtown Telluride Townhouse on Cornet Creek Creekside C is a three-level townhouse in downtown Telluride, set back from Main Street behind evergreens and aspens on Cornet Creek. It feels tucked away, yet town is on foot: Clark's Market is about 3 minutes away, the River Trail about 4, the free gondola about 8, and the trailhead for the Jud Wiebe Trail and Cornet Creek Falls about 10. Inside, plaster walls, hardwood floors, high ceilings, and distinctive art set the tone, with Waterworks fixtures in the marble bathrooms and Boll & Branch linens on every bed. Every bedroom has its own bathroom, and the bedrooms are split across two floors, with the King suite and bunk room on the upper level and the Queen suite on the top level beside the rooftop terrace. It suits one large family or two families traveling together.

Walking times: Sheridan Opera House, Elks Park, and the San Miguel County Courthouse about 7 minutes, the Valley Floor trails about 8, the Bear Creek trailhead about 13, and Town Park about 19. SKI ACCESS The free gondola is the easiest way onto the mountain. Telluride Station, at Oak Street and San Juan Avenue, is about an 8-minute walk, or ride the Galloping Goose to its Gondola stop. Attendants load skis onto racks outside the cabins, and lift tickets are sold at the station. Ride to San Sophia Station to ski (a lift ticket is required to get off there in winter), or on to Mountain Village, where the Telluride Ski & Snowboard School is based. At the end of the day, ride the gondola back to town and walk or take the Galloping Goose home. THROUGH THE SEASONS Summer: walk to the Jud Wiebe Trail, a 3-mile loop with views over town, or the short, steep hike to 80-foot Cornet Falls, both from the north end of Aspen Street. The River Trail leads to Town Park, home of the Telluride Bluegrass Festival in June, and the Telluride Farmers' Market fills South Oak Street on Fridays from late May to early October. The free gondola rides up to hiking and cross-country biking trails at San Sophia Station, and Bridal Veil Falls, Colorado's tallest free-falling waterfall, is a short drive east. Over Labor Day weekend, the Telluride Film Festival screens around town, including the Sheridan Opera House and an open-air cinema in Elks Park. Fall: the aspens usually peak in late September and early October, and Telluride Blues & Brews fills Town Park in September. The gondola runs into late October. Winter: off the slopes, Town Park has ice skating and the Telluride Nordic Center's groomed trails, and the Valley Floor Nordic trails start at the west end of town. Spring: skiing runs into early April, and the sunny Jud Wiebe Trail is usually accessible year-round. The gondola usually reopens for summer in late May. THE HOME Main level: the living room centers on the gas fireplace under a coffered ceiling, with tall windows to the trees. The kitchen, with a farmhouse sink and Wolf range, opens to the dining table, and the creekside patio has Adirondack chairs and the grill under the aspens. Upper level: the King suite has French doors to the trees and a marble bathroom with a steam shower and freestanding soaking tub. The bunk room's four full-size beds are built in, with storage drawers beneath, and it has its own bathroom with a soaking tub.
