Granted the Village was a bit removed and a car was required,
but unlike the town it was quiet and had expansive views
The house that we stayed in was part of the Lodges on Sundance
all built with classic Western style log construction.
It was adjacent to the Sundance run
so it had the all important ski in - ski out access
There were windows everywhere so there was plenty of interior light
not that you can tell from this photo
Here's the image from the rental website.
See how bright it was?
I loved the fact that the house was decorated in warm shades of earthy brown with comfy wing chairs, a distressed leather couch, a cozy fireplace and a flat screen tv.
Looking backwards from the living room was an open kitchen with carved wood cabinets and granite counters. Above it was the open loft-office.
In the corner next to the kitchen was the dinning area with comfortable high backed chairs and a large wooden table.
Since there were six of us staying in the house I appreciated the spaciousness of the interior.
I also loved all of the details in the decoration such as this antler chandelier

I would definitely recommend the Lodges on Sundance
as long as you can handle the altitude.
Finally, on the topic of altitude, the highlight of my trip was taking the gondola up the mountain to meet up with some friends for drinks then dinner at Allred's Restaurant.
The food was great and the view of the valley was amazing.
If you go to Telluride, in summer or winter, do not miss Allred's.
