Castle Butenham by Cottonwood Lodging

Just a one- to two-minute walk from ski access to Brighton Resort’s Milly Express Lift, Castle Butenham pairs exceptional mountain access with spacious living areas, a private hot tub, a home theater, and room for families and groups to spread out.

This luxury mountain home features four private bedrooms, an additional loft sleeping area, three full bathrooms, multiple entertainment spaces, and a warm cabin-inspired interior. Large fireplaces, a gourmet kitchen, mountain views, and a wraparound deck make Castle Butenham a comfortable and convenient retreat in every season.

Important Winter Access Information

Our enjoyment and fun definitely continued after we returned from the slopes. The property managers are incredibly responsive and helpful - they really enhanced our experience. Highly recommend!

Beautiful

The cabin is amazing, the layout works flawlessly. There was enough room for everyone to do exactly what they wanted. The location was good, very close to Brighton you can only ski in from Milly, the hike/ walk to Brighton might be a bit much for an older group. Our ages ranged from 45 to 15 so it worked great for us. We would love to return, thank you so much for sharing your beautiful gem.

Great home

We enjoyed this house. It worked great for us with 3 families totaling 12 people. The hot tub was a hit and being up on the mountain provided much cooler temps. The foosball table and ping pong table were loved by the kids. Everything was clean and usable. The only thing missing was measuring cups, which is an easy remedy. I’d recommend this house.

Home was clean, well stocked with spices and needed equipment including 2 crockpots. Perfect for both younger children and older. 4WD is REQUIRED. Don’t chance it. Hot tub was not on when we arrived—recommend turning it on when you arrive if you want to use it as it takes 12+ hours to heat. Overall, excellent stay! Plenty of room for our large group. Would definitely stay again.

Group of 5 friends skiing at Brighton and was very pleased. The house was excellent and it was ski in and ski out from the Milly express quad. There were issues with our stay that the property manager quickly solved and provided great customer service. All rental properties have pros and cons. What makes the difference is the ability for a property manager to quickly communicate and solve issues. I wanted to say thank you for great customer service and a great stay.

Beautiful home and view

I’m going to miss waking up to that view!!! The home was perfect for our group. Only complaint was the big ceiling fan in the main family room was out of order. This made it quit uncomfortable for the person sleeping in the loft. The windows don’t open so no airflow. We found 2 box fans that helped a little. The kitchen was amazing. And the hot tub was much needed after the wedding.
