Ski Steamboat in a Genuine Victorian Landmark — 7BR, Up to 16 Guests
You won't find another house like this in Steamboat. Originally built in the Victorian era and transported from Lyons, Kansas to the base of the mountain in 1991, The Victorian Under the Gondola is Steamboat's most storied ski address — a genuine piece of history that no designer could replicate from scratch.
This meticulously restored 7-bedroom, 8.5-bath home accommodates up to 16 guests across four extraordinary floors. Gather in the chef's kitchen for big group breakfasts, then let everyone settle into their own corner of the house — the lower-level game room (pool table, wet bar, private theater) for the night owls; the rooftop for sunset views; the third-floor library for afternoon readers. When the day is done, the hot tub is waiting!
Two master suites define the second floor: one is a romantic retreat complete with its own fireplace and a clawfoot soaking tub; the other opens to a private mountain-view patio. A Steinway grand piano anchors the living room, and a Tiffany-mantled fireplace gives the main level the warmth of a home, not a rental.
Steamboat Ski Resort is steps away — this is champagne powder country, and you're right in the middle of it. Come summer, Fish Creek Falls (a 280-ft waterfall with great hiking), Strawberry Park Natural Hot Springs, and whitewater rafting on the Yampa River are all within easy reach. Downtown Steamboat — with standout restaurants like Café Diva, Laundry Kitchen & Cocktails, and Creekside Café — is just minutes away. Two covered garage spots included.
7 bedrooms • 8.5 bathrooms • Up to 16 guests
Guests should note that if the garage apartment is also booked, the hot tub is a shared resource.
Guests will have access to two garage spots. Two additional cars can also be parked behind these spots.
If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking.
