Mom's House is a downtown Leadville home laid out for a family or two couples — three bedrooms, two full baths, a shared living/dining area, and the feature everyone actually rebooks for: a hot tub in a fenced backyard.
The primary bedroom is on the main floor with a King, smart TV, and closet. The second bedroom is on the main floor with a Queen. Upstairs is the flex room — two Queen beds, good for kids who want to be together or an adult + child combo.
The kitchen is full-size — not a galley. Full fridge, full stove/oven, dishwasher, coffee maker, and enough counter for a real dinner. The dining table seats the full household; the living room has a smart TV and room for everyone.
Out back is the real selling point. A hot tub inside a fenced yard, a patio with benches and a gas grill, and mountain views over the fence line. Dog owners don't have to leash up. Kids can be out while parents cook.
The home is a 30-second walk to Harrison Avenue — every Leadville restaurant, coffee shop, gallery, and museum is within 5 minutes on foot. Ski Cooper is 25 minutes north; Copper Mountain is 25 minutes east.
We do utilize a weblink outside the platform that directs guests to our guidebook. You will receive an email with this link. This is the ONLY way guests can access check-in information, and facilitates the collection of fees and other special requests/upgraded services we offer.
To protect your stay, you'll choose one of two options during online check-in: a $250 refundable security deposit (a temporary card hold, released after checkout) or a small damage waiver ($10/night, max $80).
Guests have access to the entire home and the fenced backyard. The garage and basement are not part of the rental.
Check-in details and the Traverse digital guidebook are sent via email prior to arrival — please look for the message from Traverse Hospitality.
Mom's House is a self-check-in home — once you're booked, Traverse Hospitality emails check-in details, the digital guidebook, and local recommendations before arrival. During your stay, the Traverse team is a text or phone call away for anything you need. We give guests their privacy and respond quickly when asked.
Leadville sits at 10,152 ft in the Colorado Rockies, ringed by some of the highest peaks in the Lower 48 — Mt. Elbert (14,440') and Mt. Massive (14,428') are both within 30 minutes. The town kept its Victorian downtown intact, so Harrison Avenue (half a block from the front door) still runs past restored 1880s storefronts now filled with coffee shops, restaurants, breweries, bookstores, and museums.
Winter: ski Copper Mountain, Ski Cooper, Breckenridge, Keystone, Vail, or Beaver Creek. Ice skate, sled, snowshoe, or cross-country ski on the Mineral Belt Trail right from downtown. Snowmobile tours leave from town.
Summer: hike or climb Mt. Elbert or Mt. Massive, fish Turquoise Lake or the Arkansas headwaters, bike the Mineral Belt, or drive the 4WD-only Mosquito Pass (13,186') — the highest paved-ish vehicular road in the U.S. Leadville Mining District tours, the National Mining Hall of Fame, and a dozen preserved ghost towns in driving range.
Year-round: the Leadville Colorado & Southern Railroad runs scenic train trips, the Tabor Opera House hosts shows, and Harrison Avenue restaurants stay open on the shoulder seasons when bigger resort towns empty out.
• License #002088.
• Elevation is 10,152 ft — altitude affects some guests (headache, nausea, poor sleep the first night). Drink more water than you think, ease into the first day, and consider travel insurance if you're prone to altitude illness. Refunds cannot be offered for altitude sickness.
• No air conditioning — Leadville summer nights typically drop into the 40s–50s and A/C isn't needed.
• The fireplace is decorative only — do NOT use. Please don't attempt to light it.
• Pet policy: 2 dogs maximum. $70 + tax for one dog, $140 + tax for two. Pet fee is collected via the Traverse digital guidebook after booking.
• Parking: street parking in front of the home. In winter, watch for temporary snow-removal signs and move your vehicle if posted — City of Leadville tickets are real.
• Staying in the mountains means occasional small wildlife, insects, or critters — keep doors closed when possible. The home is professionally treated and cleaned between every stay.
• The check-in guidebook link is emailed separately from the platform booking confirmation — please watch for it. That's the only way to receive door codes, upgrade services, or submit the pet fee.
• For stays longer than 15 days, a mid-stay cleaning is required and an additional fee of $150 will apply. This helps us maintain a high standard of cleanliness and ensures the home stays comfortable for the duration of your stay.
• Quiet hours: 10 PM – 8 AM, per City of Leadville STR ordinance.
