About The Ruby of Crested Butte
The Ruby is owned and operated by Chris and Andrea Greene, self-described “Coloradans to the core”. The inn was originally built in 1994 and was called the Crystal Inn. After six years the original owners retired. In 2004 the new owners purchased the property and created The Ruby, which officially opened on January 1st, 2005. The inn is named after Ruby Elkourie, Andrea’s beloved grandmother who loved the outdoors. She is the embodiment of what the owners love about Crested Butte and their vision for The Ruby – that it be Colorful, Authentic, and Connected.
