Keystone Homes for Rent

Keystone in Montezuma is a small neighborhood with fewer than a thousand full-time residents, known for its proximity to Summit County’s outdoor recreation. Located at the base of Keystone Ski Resort, it offers access to world-class skiing and snowboarding, including night skiing and the longest runs in the area. Keystone is also near Arapahoe Basin, which boasts the longest ski season in Colorado. The Rocky Mountains dominate the landscape, providing ample opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, and water activities like ice skating on Keystone Lake in winter and paddleboarding in summer. Local amenities include GOAT Soup & Whiskey Tavern, The Cala Pub, and Gateway Grocery & Liquor, with a wider selection available at City Market in Dillon. River Run Village, with its pedestrian-friendly promenade and variety of shops and restaurants, adds to the neighborhood's charm. Homes, mainly luxury cabins, condos, and townhouses, are concentrated along Route 6, which connects to Interstate 70 and other ski areas. The neighborhood features dark brown and wooden exteriors that blend with the forested surroundings. Keystone is more affordable compared to nearby Breckenridge, Vail, and Aspen, with no rental restrictions in the resort area. The nearest public schools are in Summit Cove, including highly rated Summit Cove Elementary School and Summit High School. Free Summit County buses and the Mountain Shuttle provide transportation to nearby towns and Denver International Airport, 95 miles away. Despite the winter challenges of icy roads, the area is safer than the national average.
