Featured Steamboat Lodging: The Victorian Lodge

Steamboat lodging with real character

One of our vacation rental homes that truly stands out for unique character is the Victorian Lodge which is now available for families and groups in Steamboat Springs. Lodging like this does not come along every day - the unique Victorian exterior is contrasted by the stylish and interior that makes this a delight as a ski vacation home.

You might guess that the Victorian Lodge has a story to tell.  Originally built in 1880 in Kansas, this magnificent home was the subject of an acrimonious divorce settlement.  The home was cut in half and the husband dismantled and moved his half to Steamboat Springs in 1991 and rebuilt it as a ski-town Bed & Breakfast. The home went through a remodel where additional rooms were added increasing the size of the home to over 6000 sq.ft.  It was completely restored in 2007 to provide modern amenities and finishes while preserving its Victorian charm.

The five large bedrooms and eight bathrooms offer ample accommodations for a large ski group or family gathering.  The location just above the Steamboat ski  base area places you close to the action yet still affording you privacy and seclusion from the hubbub or resort life.

A professional kitchen with old world charm

On the lower level a game room offers place to pay a game of pool or Wii and a home theater media room with leather recliners. On the main floor the living room with fireplace and window sitting area offer a comfortable place to relax at the end of the day. The kitchen, is well equipped with appliances and granite countertops. A cozy breakfast nook offers a valley view.

The Victorian craftsmanship that makes this home unique is evident with its original molding and stained glass windows, parlor and en-suite sitting rooms off several of the bedrooms.  Ski lodging with character and modern comforts is a rare combination anywhere - so you have yet another reason to ski Steamboat Springs someday!
