Ice House Suites and Condominiums

Ice house made our whole anniversary/birthday trip. We called them around 9pm after more or less fleeing from our original AvantStay rental due to an abundance of pet dander in a "humans only" rental that had me close to needing the ER for asthma. Ice house took care of us from the minute we gave them a ring - they talked through the available units, bed types, and respective pet histories, met us outside the condo, helped us find parking in the garage (and there were outlets for us to use to recharge our EV!), and then offered to show us the various condos that were available and ready for guests. We ended up in 401, a beautiful 2 bedroom on the top floor with a comfy (and firm) king bed, two twins, some epic bathrooms, a washer dryer, and a great open living area. Typical for the area, there was no A/C in the bedrooms (there was AC in the living space), but the many available fans brought in the cool air from outside and we felt fine. There were several humidifiers, and we used one with a paper filter. The owners may have a dog, but we didn't experience much of an issue with pet dander - some sneezing if we were on the carpet foam rolling, but it resolved when we moved to the hardwood floor and didn't have an issue on any of the furniture. We did a lot of hiking and took many naps. The complex has a coffee station and a pretty good gym - we didn't check out the other amenities but they have all sorts of stuff. The wifi was solid - was able to present my zoom meeting with no disruptions. The location was perfect - it was super quiet (faced an interior courtyard so we didn't hear street or bar noise), close to our favorite food spots and the smaller grocery store, down the block from the gondola, near the library, close to a book store, and right across the creek from bear creek trailhead. The parking garage was a little tricky when it was full, but the ice house staff was very helpful when I got nervous parking and came over to help me haha. And, I mean, parking, let alone covered parking, in Telluride? What a gift. And did I mention we could charge our car? Wins! The team at Ice House was also available whenever we needed and offered availability through the night if we experienced any challenges. We felt so taken care of and were so incredibly grateful for their kindness. We will probably only stay here during future visits.

Really enjoyed our 5 night stay at the Ice House. For skiing you can’t beat the one block stroll to the town gondola or chair 8. Room 306 was brand new, two super comfortable beds, 1.5 large well appointed baths, small ideal kitchenette. Cool and comfortable furnishings. Hot tub and pool/steam room area is great. Impeccable housekeeping. Lots of great hooks for ski gear everywhere. Free Starbucks every AM right outside of our room. Only cons: no fireplace was a bummer. You have to check in next door at Camel Garden hotel and they walk you over (no biggie). And I probably wouldn’t stay here in summer because tiny outdoor balcony was too small. But this was perfect for two buddies on a ski getaway and and easy location to explore this amazing town.

We loved our stay at the Icehouse. The location is ideal for access to Gondola, to restaurants, hiking trails & downtown. We didn't use our car during our stay. The unit was clean and comfortable. Both mattresses were comfy. This condo is a modern design which is cool. The condo does get a little warm in early June because there's a large solarium on the 3rd floor where our room was. There's no A/C in the Colorado mountains so we kept windows and deck door open and screen shut so it was not a problem with daytime temps in 60s and cool nights. Jackie & Blake were very helpful at check in, thank you. The only complaint we had is that the deck and deck chairs were very dirty and need a cleaning badly. Looks like someone spilled a meal on the deck floor and not fully cleaned. We didn't have our condo serviced while we were here so can't comment on that.
