I really enjoyed our stay in Mountain Village. You got a little bit of both worlds--quiet and relaxing in the mountains as well as the city feel with the nearby shops (an outdoor mall). I would certainly recommend staying in Mountain Village as opposed to Telluride.

Once upon a time, Telluride Mountain Village was a mass of muddy parking lots, a couple of chair lifts, some condominium buildings, and a trailer where you bought your lift tickets. Today, the independently incorporated town of Mountain Village, Colorado is a tacky amalgam of hotels, condos, shops, restaurants, and—coming soon—the Telluride area's very first Starbucks. It's possible but difficult... More

This should not be classified as an ' attraction' - it's a town! I include the town of Telluride in coming to my 'enchanting' descriptor. With the fantastic gondola service between MV and Telluride, everybody staying at MV will be in Telluride quite a bit during their stay. We rented a condo at the Town Hall Square end of the... More

We stayed at the Aspen Ridge Resort and felt like the rich and famous. Views were spectacular and our unit #3 was very very nice. The only thing it could have used was an elevator as it was 4 stories high and the altitude really affected us.

The action is definitely happening in Mtn. Village. Nice shops, good/great restaurants, fun activities for kids, wonderful weekly concerts in the summer!

The location of the shops give this the 4 rating. Otherwise I would rate the Mountain Village area as being very average for North American Ski Resorts. Most shops had the typical last minute items you need before going out, but that is where it stops. We did find a jacket and pants for next season for one child and... More

Take the free Telluride Gondola from downtown to the Mountain Village and you've not only traveled about 3 miles but more than 100 years in time. The charming town of Telluride maintains that original mining feel with a surprising twist - its Victorian. Yes, San Francisco style painted ladies are the main home style in town. But take a ride...

The food carts are awesome! We enjoyed crepes almost every day. The savory crepes hit the spot for a quick, inexpensive lunch. It is great to share a sweet crepe - the cinnamon and sugar is wonderful - so simple and yummy.
