The cottage boasts three spacious, serene bedrooms: one king-sized bed and two queen beds, each designed as a tranquil haven for restful sleep after a day of adventure. All three bedrooms have ensuite full bathrooms, with the king-sized room also sporting a spacious bathtub and a steam shower for ultimate relaxation.

The living area is inviting and cozy, with a fireplace that sets the mood for evenings of relaxation and conversation. Enjoy the warmth of in-floor heating throughout the cottage, ensuring comfort no matter the weather outside.

Valerian has a private patio, with outside seating and an outdoor grill for enjoying the mountain air. Located just steps away from Crested Butte’s vibrant dining, shopping, and entertainment, Valerian offers unparalleled access to the best of the town. Step outside and enjoy the charm of the area or head to nearby mountain trails and slopes for endless outdoor adventures, including skiing, hiking, and biking.
