Travel Note
Crested Butte is a small mountain town about a 4.5 hour drive from the Denver airport. There is also a small airport in Gunnison 30 minutes south of Crested Butte that has connecting flights from Denver if you wanted to avoid the long drive. There are lots of Airbnb options in Mt. Crested Butte, which is up by the ski mountain and just a short drive (5 minutes) from the actual town of Crested Butte. We recommend Elk Mountain Lodge, Purple Mountain B&B, and Cristiana Guesthaus if you want to stay down the mountain in town and be able to walk to/from our dinner reception at Bonez on Elk Avenue.
