Bear Claw in Steamboat Springs is a long-time favourite among ski travelers who value location above all else. Sitting slopeside on the Stampede run, the Bear Claw complex offers some of the best ski-in/ski-out condo access in Steamboat — simply clip in and go.
The property features individually owned condos ranging from one to four bedrooms, each with full kitchens, cozy living areas, and fireplaces — ideal for après-ski relaxation. Décor varies depending on the owner, but most units are well-maintained and spacious. Many units can also sleep up to 12 people, ideal for multi-generational ski trips or larger families. Some condos have been renovated with a more modern mountain aesthetic, while others retain a classic Colorado lodge feel. Scout can book individual units to suit your preferences and needs. Scout loves that some of the ground floor units allow you to ski-in right back to your door!
Guests have access to a full suite of amenities at Bear Claw including an outdoor heated pool, two hot tubs, sauna, a fitness room and ski lockers with boot dryer room. The on-site staff is consistently praised for their warmth and helpfulness — whether it’s arranging grocery delivery, booking activities, or offering shuttle rides into town.
