The River Trail Retreat: Waterfalls and Festivals

The River Trail Retreat lives where downtown gives way to wetlands and unobstructed views of town park, Bear Creek preserve & cascading waterfalls! This 1-bdrm condo was JUST remodeled (June, 2022) and is top to bottom awesome! New appliances and finishings throughout including a W/D and 85" TV. Take in the morning sun as it crests over Ajax peak and watch the box canyon come to life! With nature as your neighbor but downtown 1 block away, the RTR offers Telluride in harmony!
This bright condo is a true mountain getaway and located in the heart of Telluride. Hear the music from the town park stage during festival weekends and the silence offered during all others! We provide our guests covered off-street parking and the convenience of walking to all that Telluride has to offer. The River Trail Retreat has a full kitchen, bath, dining and lounging areas. There is an incredible hot tub enjoyed by guests of the complex that sits near the banks of the San Miguel River! Walk out your door and onto the River Trail that connects to Bear Creek preserve and beyond. Take in the daily alpen-glow show from your balcony and immerse yourself in the best of Telluride's mountain magic!

Guests have full and private access to the entire 1-bedroom condo and there is an shared hot tub on property for guest use as well.
With Telluride's historic main street just a block away, our guests will enjoy instant access to a legendary culinary scene, boutique shopping, hiking trails, chairlifts and the free gondola. No car needed to enjoy endless adventures here in the San Juan Mountains! The free galloping goose bus stops right our front of the building and can take riders anywhere in town.

Great location and stay
The property was as listed, and a very nice cozy place to stay for 5 days. We could walk to pretty much everything, including skiing and the gondola. The hot tub was great to use right behind the unit, and we really enjoyed all of the amenities. Thanks!

Best location in Telluride
We enjoyed our stay so much. The condo is directly next to the park where the fireworks show took place. The balcony allowed us to perfectly watch the fireworks without being in the crowd. The bed is comfortable, and the kitchen has all of the needed cooking utensils. Although there is no air conditioning, we used the box fan with the windows and balcony door open, which cooled the condo well. It’s nice that there is a parking spot if your vehicle is not oversized, but that’s to be expected in Telluride.

Dreamy Location
We loved staying here and would definitely stay here next time in town. The location is perfect for walking quite literally anywhere. The views are spectacular. We were here for 5 nights and used the grill on the deck 2 of the nights (did I mention the views?). Very clean. Many thoughtful touches. Just book it.

Great Telluride Spot
The location was excellent! Six minute walk to the gondola to get to the slopes. Walking distance to everything downtown. The condo was clean and very well stocked with everything that you would need. The bed was comfortable which is a hard find when you’re usually renting a place. The best part was the heated bathroom floor. I will definitely plan on staying here again.

New Years stay
Beautiful condo on the 2nd floor with gorgeous view out the back patio. Newly renovated and very comfortable. Luke was very quick to respond to our questions. I would absolutely stay here again with my husband and son. The pull out couch mattress was comfortable for my 11 year old and the queen bed was super comfy.

Location was outstanding for any event in town park. Property management company were very responsive. Parking was good. The condo itself was, at best, average.and if not for the location way over priced. The one interesting feature about the condo was the heated tile floor in the bathroom.

Can’t Say Enough!!!
We had an absolutely wonderful stay in Telluride. The information that was provided prior to our check-in was the most thorough, complete and user-friendly I have ever received for a Vrbo Luke calm, was extremely welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. The property is absolutely amazing and pictures don’t do it justice. The location is phenomenal with easy access to the river trail And plenty of spots to wade into the river. It is also very close to the bustling downtown area and Minnie exceptional restaurants. What is perhaps even better is the proximity to several trail heads. We did not want to leave and will almost certainly return and stay at this property . What a find!

beautiful views, excellent location
The place was perfect for our four days in town. We were within close walking distance of main street and all the restaurants and shops. The unit looks newly updated and is well-designed. The view from the living area is amazing - you look at the end of the box canyon - Ingram Falls, Ajax mtn and Bear Creek on the right. The bed was really comfortable, the shower was great. We were happy to have the washer and dryer (in the bedroom alcove) to do laundry. The local contact was quick to respond and helpful when we had a question about the parking. All in all a terrific stay!

Great condo well located in Telluride
We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 night stay at this well located and freshly renovated condo in Telluride. The shops and restaurants were at our doorstep and the gondola to the Mountain Village was just a few blocks away. The condo is very nicely renovated with great extras like coffee, tea, wine, and sparkling water. It had everything we needed for our stay. This is probably the best managed vacation rental I’ve ever had. Thank you and we will come again!
