Telluride Brewing Company's new "Taps & Tacos" just opened in the village core and will be your new favorite hangout in no time! One of the unique aspects of Mountain Village is that it was created to be a pedestrian-friendly, European-style resort village above the Town of Telluride. The vision included a commercial center that is known today as Mountain Village Center (or to some, Village Core), single-family estates dispersed carefully within the natural landscape, and a meandering network of winter and summer trails, walking paths, and golf fairways throughout. As homeowners, we believe green initiatives such as the free gondola, limited parking and vehicle use, support the natural surroundings, wildlife and quality of life for all. If parking is needed, the Heritage Parking Garage (35.00 a night) is conveniently located adjacent to Columbia Place. Or you can park in the Gondola Parking Garage - (25.00 a night). There are online mobile apps that make parking easy and you can add time to the "meter" using your phone should you want to arrive early or keep your car parked past your checkout time. Details for downloading the app will be sent to you in your arrival information. Additionally, you can park at the airport for $5.00 a night and shuttle into Telluride. We have a reserved parking space for one car in a nearby garage (It is a short walk and not directly on premises). We will provide details prior to your arrival. This spot is at no additional cost to guests. A luggage cart is in the unit for your convenience. If you have a second car, park in the Heritage Parking Garage (2.00 an hour) or the Blue Mesa Parking lot to unload your luggage. Once unloaded, you can either keep your car in the Heritage Lot for $35.00 a night, move it to the Gondola Lot $25.00 a night, or the Airport Lot $5.00 a night - which requires a shuttle or Uber back. Once settled, you can take the free Gondola into Telluride for more dining, shopping and adventure. If you’re looking for groceries or wine, you can take the market plaza gondola to stock up for your stay. Both Gondolas are free and within a two minute walk of the condo. We also offer a private shuttle service for our guests and information on this will be sent to you in your booking confirmation. Need a ride?
