Strong Elk on Quakey Lane
Tucked into the aspens of the Ski Ranches neighborhood, Strong Elk offers a serene mountain escape just minutes from Mountain Village. Here, panoramic views stretch across the Wilson range... including the iconic Mt. Wilson, recognizable from the Coors label - creating an unforgettable backdrop for your stay.
This spacious single-family home blends rustic warmth with modern comfort. Wood accents and vaulted ceilings frame the open living area, where floor-to-ceiling windows fill the space with natural light and showcase the sweeping mountain vistas. A stone fireplace anchors the room, while plush seating invites you to gather after a day on the trails. Step outside to the furnished deck to soak in the alpine air and watch the colors shift across the peaks.
The kitchen is well-equipped with stainless steel appliances, a farmhouse sink, and generous counter space for preparing meals together. The thoughtful layout provides room for everyone to spread out, with the main level flowing seamlessly between living, dining, and kitchen areas.
On the lower level, a second living area offers a cozy retreat with a large TV, perfect for movie nights or kids’ hangouts. You’ll also find two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and laundry facilities for added convenience. With abundant space across multiple levels and views from nearly every room, Strong Elk is designed for gathering, relaxing, and savoring the mountain lifestyle.

Loved our stay!
by Angela W.
We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful home! It was spacious enough to comfortably accommodate our large group, and the layout worked perfectly for multi-generational families. The kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed, making it easy to prepare meals together. The views were absolutely stunning, and we spent so much time just taking in the scenery. The home itself felt luxurious but without being overwhelming or requiring constant attention, which was ideal for us with a 5 and 9-year-old in tow. We felt comfortable and at ease the entire time. A great feature of this home is its versatility—there’s a bedroom on the main floor for those who prefer not to navigate stairs, plus additional rooms on both the lower and upper floors. This thoughtful design made it even more convenient for everyone to have their own space. Overall, it was an amazing stay, and we would definitely recommend this home to anyone looking for a large, comfortable, and family-friendly retreat.

We loved it!
by Christian V.
We had 3 families with kids aging from 7-13 and the house was perfect for us. The older kids were all able to stay downstairs while the younger stayed in the 2 twins located in the upstairs bedroom. The backyard is great for sledding and everything is very well appointed. We cooked every night while in town and had more than enough cookware, seasonings and other staples to cook whatever we wanted. Beds were comfy and Sonos sound system is great to hang out and enjoy the majestic views of Mt Wilson and the mountains surrounding. We typically stay in Mountain Village for access to skiing, but with the ski lovers that are available through Vacasa, we didn\'t have to worry about lugging our equipment to and fro everyday! We would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone! If I could make any suggestions, it may be to utilize the downstairs room with the double beds as a bunk room for kids. Otherwise, we loved it!

Huge awesome house!
by Andrew C.
A huge, well-appointed house located in a rural area just outside of Mountain Village. Terrific views of Mt. Wilson through an aspen grove. With two master suites, two families can comfortably share this 5 bedroom house.

Incredible
by Gabriel H.
Incredible property. Very easy to communicate with management company! Views were gorgeous and house was beautiful and spacious. Just a few minutes from mountain village and Telluride make this a super central location. Also, the views were outstanding.

Fantastic property
by Annie M.
This property was fantastic- far better than the photos would even suggest. The kitchen is one of the best vacation rental kitchens, with every dish or glassware or appliance you could wish for and high-end appliances. The views from the living room and deck are spectacular and we enjoyed watching the sunsets from the deck and the hot tub. The location is great - very close to Telluride, but private. There is a little noise from the road.

We loved our stay here. It’s very spacious, close to the gondola station, and has the best view of the mountains. We would love to visit again.
