Franz Klammer Lodge Testimonials

We have been owners at Fairmont Heritage Place Franz Klammer Lodge since 2002 and have never regretted our decision to buy. In fact, we love it so much we purchased an additional fractional share in 2012. FKL was still being run by the developer when we originally bought in and having the association with Fairmont has been an added benefit. We have only traded time once (we love coming to Telluride so much!), but when we did trade it was a great experience. We have taken advantage of the ALL Accor Liv Limitless benefits many, many times and always get a preferential rate AND usually get a great upgrade.  Telluride is such a special, welcoming place. The skiing is fabulous, as are the golf and hiking the rest of the year. But what really is exceptional is the level of service we as members receive from the staff at FKL. I have never seen a place where the concept of customer service is better understood and executed. We feel so welcomed there that even though it is a fractional ownership, we absolutely view the FKL as our second home. - The Weslings, Austin TX

My husband and his two friends first experienced the Franz Klammer in 1996 and as a result three couples all became owners. Keeping an already formed friendship together and forming too many memories to mention, our friendships expanded among the FKL owners. Although we are fortunate to still be skiing; we found the other seasons to bring wonderful enjoyment from hiking to the Film Festival. All this in one of the most beautiful parts of Colorado - what more could you ask for!!! - Joan Maclachlan

This is our first year as owners and staying at Franz Klammer over Christmas New Year. Fantastic location.  Staff excellent. Nothing ever a problem . Curious, efficient, friendly .  New ski valet closer to the slopes is exceptional . - Marc, Australia

Jean came highly recommended to us. She helped our friends purchase a unit at the Franz almost 2 decades ago and she is now a dear friend to them. Jean was all they built her up to be. She was amazing. She listened to our needs even when we hadn’t formulated them fully and worked tirelessly to find us a place that would work for our family in a market that was on fire and not buyer-friendly. She was available day and night—our seller was in Europe—and she even worked throughout her vacation. She is smart, savvy, and so wonderful to work with. She kept up with all the details so we didn’t have to with our hectic work and home schedule. She made everything happen for us from a distance as we live out of state. We give Jean our highest recommendation and will absolutely work with her again when the time comes for us to buy or sell.
 

I have been an owner for about one year. In that time my family has had a tremendous experience. During the summer, we stayed at the Fairmont in Lake Louise, Banff, and Calgary. As President's Club members, we received upgrades to extremely luxurious suites and Gold Floor privileges. Franz Klammer member services was responsive and helpful, and always available to answer any question we had.  We also recently returned from a week stay at FKL over the holidays. Telluride is our favorite ski resort, and the FKL makes it even more special. The amenities, including proximity to the slopes, ski valet (which keeps hot cocoa on hand), the pool, spa and hot tub all enhanced our vacation. The staff members are all friendly and helpful. We have only good things to say about our experience. We are looking forward to staying at FKL this summer and enjoying the multitude of outdoor activities Telluride has to offer. - Nancy Lard

This is our third year of ownership at the Franz Klammer Heritage Place in Telluride Colorado. We have been extremely happy with the property and staff. As a Realtor and developer in Michigan I do not buy real estate outside of my market. After being at the FKL for a day I was ready to purchase and did. Once learning how the week rotations work it is very easy to schedule and plan summer and winter vacations. As an owner you also become a member of the Fairmont Presidents Club allowing Gold Level status at all Fairmont Hotels and discounted room rates. I have used this many times. You may also trade into many properties around the world... So exciting. Having a deeded property with such flexibility is wonderful. We currently have 5 weeks (1/10) and will be purchasing more.  Tedd & Debbie Lockwood
