The Space:
Josephine is a restored Victorian in the heart of downtown Leadville — vintage character with the updates that matter, and enough rooms that a group of eight never piles into one space.

➔ Bathrooms — Two full baths (one with a tub, one with a shower).
➔ Kitchen — Updated eat-in kitchen with full-size appliances and a cook's pantry, opening to a formal dining room — guests call the kitchen their favorite room.

➔ Outside — Outdoor hot tub, gas grill, and backyard.
➔ Practical — Laundry room, smart TV, free on-street parking.
3 PROS:
1. One block to Main Street — restaurants, shops, and trailheads on foot
2. Real space for a group — 4 bedrooms plus four separate living/reading rooms
3. Outdoor hot tub + an updated kitchen guests rave about
2 CONS:
1. A historic Victorian — it creaks, and the decorative fireplace is not operable
2. Parking is on-street and tight; plan for one to two cars
Guest Access:
You have the entire private home — all four bedrooms, every living space, the kitchen, the library, the backyard, and the hot tub. Free on-street parking out front fits roughly one to two cars.
Before arrival you'll receive an email link to our digital guidebook — it's the only place check-in details live, so please open it before you travel.
The Neighborhood:
Josephine sits a block off Harrison Avenue in Leadville's National Historic Landmark District — restaurants, coffee, museums, galleries, and shops are a short walk, and so are the Mineral Belt Trail access points.
From the door:
- Ski Cooper (15 min) and Copper Mountain (25 min) for lift days; Vail, Breckenridge, Keystone, and Beaver Creek are 30–50 min
- Turquoise Lake (12 min) for paddling, fishing, and shoreline sunsets
- Mt. Elbert and Mt. Massive trailheads (about 26 min) — Colorado's two highest peaks
- Fall-color bike rides, fly fishing, snowshoeing, and the Leadville train — something every season
Getting Around:
Leadville is walkable and this home is in the heart of downtown — Main Street is a block away, so park the car and walk to dinner. Parking is free but on-street and can be tight on a historic block; plan for one to two cars. In winter the free Lake County shuttle connects to Copper Mountain.
Other Things to Note:
License on file with the City of Leadville.
Not pet friendly.
No A/C. Elevation is 10,152 ft — hydrate on day one; altitude sickness is real and not refundable.
The fireplace shown in photos adds character but is no longer operable and cannot be used.
This is a restored Victorian — it creaks, floors aren't perfectly level, and that's part of a 19th-century home.
Parking is free but on-street and can be tight; in winter, keeping a space clear can take some shoveling. Plan accordingly.
A required mid-stay cleaning applies on stays longer than 15 days (details in the guidebook).
