About Us

One of Telluride's most familiar names in the accommodations market, Alpine Lodging & Real Estate, has now been doing business for almost 16 years, all under the same, local ownership.

Founded in 1992, Alpine Lodging & Real Estate caters to the needs of more than 13,000 visitors to the area every year. Expanding into the real estate business in 2001 was a logical step for Alpine Lodging, says Owner/Managing Broker Henry C. Lystad, because the company can now handle a complete array of property sales and management needs – from helping clients select and purchase homes or condominiums, to managing and maintaining properties as rentals and investments, to selling properties.

"Many of our visitors leave town with that familiar feeling of wanting to claim a part of this region as their own, and as their ‘home base' in Telluride, we are well-positioned to help them," explained Lystad. "We also have unique insights to share with people who want to realize the most investment potential from a Telluride property. By being on top of the trends in the local accommodations market, we can offer advice and management services to help prospective property owners and sellers realize the most from their investments.

Alpine Lodging & Real Estate is positioned as "Telluride's Source for Real Estate, Vacation Rentals & Property Management" by focusing on business relationships that extend beyond closings into long-term partnerships. Through its newly launched flagship websites, www.TELLURIDE.com, www.AlpineLodging.com, and www.TELLURIDECOLORADO.com, Alpine Lodging & Real Estate is confident it will maintain its reputation as "Telluride's Home on the Internet" for many years to come. All of us here in Telluride hope that you enjoy our new site and will refer back to it often.
