Dear House Guests

Ski season is starting early this year, and with the snow, comes the house guests.

All are welcome at Chateau de Young, however, it should be noted some policies and amenities are different with the addition of a baby and toddler.

Here is our new brochure for the 2014-2015 ski season:

Breathe in the fresh mountain air in the comfort of our mountain hideaway.


Golden Aspens: better make your
reservation for the 2 weeks the trees are
changing, after that it's snow until June 1
As you enter our alpine escape, time melts away, replaced with the sense of expectation, agitation, and frustration that only a vacation among the parents of an infant and toddler can provide.

Warm your hands on a mug of spiced cider as you scramble to find the perfect liquor that will lull you into a sleep deep enough to drown out the sounds of a crying baby. Then, borrow a cozy blanket and take a seat on our comfy sectional, being careful to not set on sharp toys or gooey fruit snacks.  Surround yourself with a view of the mountains, golden aspen trees and crisp mountain breezes, while you take a break from the indoor screaming insanity on our outdoor covered porch. Simply let the majesty of the Rockies envelop you into wondering why you didn't just book a real hotel room.

Our guests will enjoy a complimentary 5:30am wake up call from our toddler banging the crap out of her door. Have no fear, dear guests, we do not release her until 7am, where she will yell up and down the hallway until you stumble out thinking there is a fire.

If you are looking for a vacation complete with a 2 year old crying upon your arrival, and a baby that stares at you and laughs, look no further.  Situated at the base of Peak One, our luxurious three bedroom residence features a room right next to the toddler's room, a bathroom tub sprinkled with bath toys, damaged furniture, a queen sized mattress, and striking views of the incomparable Colorado landscape, making this an ideal place for, at best, a long weekend stay.
