Whenever traveling to a Colorado Ski Resort, I always begin with a trip to Brekenridge! From the majesty of the mountains, to the sleepy little town at the bottom of the slopes; the scene is wonderful. Once there, you know you will always return to ski in Breckenridge. Plan what you will, you will enjoy your ski vacation in Colorado. But wait; let me think about this a little. Whenever, I have gone, I have a party of friends along for the experience. We have convened at the airport, flown to Denver, and made the trek west along I-70 (and sometimes route 285), sharing stories, laughing and taking in the sites along the snow covered roads cutting through the Rockies to make our way to our ski resort. We are in Colorado Ski country and loving it! After the mild epic to get to Breckenridge, which is an integral part of the experience, we hunt down our resort in the village of Breckenridge, check in and disperse into our own rooms. We play phone tag a little; decide to meet in the lobby to go out for dinner, so we can continue our vacation together. And this is the first time it hit me like a duh or a-ha moment; more later. Our considerable group gathered at the entrance. The overtalk grows and, as with most scenarios to move large groups of people, it takes several minutes to actually leave the front door and make our way down the street for something to eat. We eat at the Breck Brewery, and our ski trip off to a cool beginning. After celebrating a bit with Colorado’s best brews, we make our way back to our resort, determine a time meet for the slopes in the morning and head off to our rooms. And it hits me again wow. The three days in Breck are awesome. Skiing in Breckenridge is perfect. Lots of sun, great temps and the slopes are in perfect condition. Aside from a couple of sunburned faces, our party suffers no injuries (not bad for flatlanders). We made our way to the slopes each day and gathered for dinner and some fun each night. The ski vacation was perfect, except, and here is the duh moment explained, we are only together part of the time. The thoughts had been hitting me all week. We are staying in the ski lodge. Sure, it is a beautiful resort, but we are all separating each night. What we should have done was rented a condo in Breckenridge (or even a Breckenridge home). It plain as day and when I explaing it to everyone in my group, they agreed. A Condo rental would be perfect. It would be the best of everything in one place. On the last night of our trip we discussed our next ski trip and all decided to rent a condo on the next trip. Ideally this gets to you in time, before you book your Colorado ski vacation, so you can consider whether you want the resort life, or the added experience that sharing your ski time and your personal time by renting a condo or home for your next ski vacation.
