Owners Contract Telluride Ski Resort to Lease Luxury Vacation Home

Difficult to get to, Telluride, Colorado, is favored by the rich and famous for its world-class skiing and its exclusivity, especially during the Christmas, New Year's, and President's Day holiday weeks. Now the owners of Mont Masion, a multi-million dollar custom mountain mansion, have contracted with Telluride Ski Resort to make their luxury home available for lease during the 3 peak holiday weeks.

Telluride, Colorado (PRWEB) November 26, 2008 -- Due to scheduling conflicts, the owners of Mont Maison have contracted Telluride Ski Resort to lease their multi-million dollar Telluride/Mountain Village home, during the weeks of Christmas, New Year's and President's Day. This Telluride luxury rental home (http://www.montmaisontelluride.com) was just recently completed directly on the Double Cabins ski run in Mountain Village, Colorado, and has never been leased before. The owners wanted to make their personal 6 bedroom, 8 bath home available to the public during the 3 peak weeks when lodging in the Telluride area is most difficult to find.

It is rare to have the opportunity to lease a custom luxury home of this caliber during any one of these major ski vacation holiday weeks. "If we cannot be there, we hope that someone else can enjoy the beauty and enchantment of the holidays in Telluride" say the owners of the property, which is named Mont Maison meaning "Mountain Home". The 7,800 square foot home captures the rustic beauty of the ultimate ski vacation escape for the rich and famous.

Telluride is a historic mining town nestled in a box canyon surrounded by 13,000 foot peaks on three sides and is connected via a free gondola to ultra-modern Mountain Village, the center of the ski area, luxury condos, and magnificent mansions. Both towns are favored by the wealthy due to its exclusivity, partly because Telluride is so hard to get to. Some commercial flights and private jets arrive via Telluride's tiny airport, but most tourists fly into Montrose and make the 1.5 hour drive into town.

Ranked as one of the top 10 ski resorts in the country by Ski Magazine for the 2008-2009 season, Telluride receives an average of 300 inches of snow per year and 300 days of sunshine. With a mix of quality terrain for all levels of skiers, Telluride is also known for plenty of challenging runs for serious skiers, including backcountry and heli-skiing. The ski area is surrounded by snow-capped mountains and breath-taking views with no crowds and no lines.

Mont Maison (elevation 10,200 feet) offers true ski-in, ski-out access to the ski resort, featuring an outdoor kitchen and fire pit adjacent to the slopes. This luxury vacation home (http://www.montmaisontelluride.com) was built in the spirit of the Colorado Mountains, featuring standing dead logs, dry stack stone, hand patina copper, iron railings and chandeliers which create a dramatic, yet warm and welcoming ambiance.

The home sleeps 14 adults comfortably in six bedrooms, including two master suites and a bunk room, and includes a gourmet kitchen, two media rooms, steam room, hot tub, exercise room, and four fireplaces. The home is also handicap accessible with an elevator servicing all three floors. Leasing rates range from $5,500 to $6,500 per night.
