About Steamboat Springs, Colorado

Steamboat Springs is a world-class ski-resort and ranching area located in the northwest corner of Colorado, just an hour from Vail, Colorado and two hours from Denver Colorado. 

Known for its authentic community, Olympian Mecca and “Champagne-Powder” snow, the town and resort of Steamboat Springs sits at an elevation of 9681 ft and encompasses one of the more attainable mountain-living experiences in Colorado. 

Historically, the ski resort has drawn the most visitors to Steamboat during the winter months, however a recent significant balance of revolving population during all seasons can be attributed to the growing arts community, the expanding college and the recent purchase of the Ski Area to Alterra Ski Corp, a KSL partner and introduction to the well-received IKON pass, connecting pass holders to its ever-expanding portfolio of destinations.

Real Estate Market in Steamboat Springs, Colorado

The Steamboat Springs Real Estate market is a mix of Luxury Ski properties, Ranches Estates, Angler’s Retreats, Golf Properties, Old Town Historic Homes, Ski Chalets, Ski Condos and Mountain and Urban Townhomes. 

The Steamboat Springs median real estate price for a single-family home is $635,000, and $470,000 for townhomes/condos, which is between 15%-62% more affordable (less expensive) than comparable property in Vail and Aspen Ski Resorts. *Colorado CAR Stats October 2019.

Being a vacation home destination, the less large inventory of long-term rentals average $2,600 per month or $866/bedroom. A consistent lack of rental property and growing population has spurred recent construction developments not only Steamboat, but in the outside neighborhoods of Hayden, Oak Creek and Clark Colorado. ** Kenneth James Realty

Geographically, Steamboat properties are segmented into four areas:  The Mountain Area, Downtown Area, Fish Creek Falls, and West and South Steamboat Neighborhoods. 

As a resort second-home market, a relatively large percentage of the property here is seasonally owner-occupied.
