Colorado is the place to capture your inner snow-monster!

Colorado maybe best known for its winters because of the abundance of fantastic skiing opportunities (27 ski resorts across the state); however, the snowflakes that blanket our mountains from December through March offer more than just a downhill experience on a Board or Skis!

If you're a winter sports fanatic or just love how snow covers our mountains and pine trees while roasting marshmallows and sipping hot coca in front of a fireplace, you'll love Colorado. And the best secret is . . . some of us love our wild temperature swings – cold and snowing on Wednesday and on Friday it’s sunny and in the upper 50s and sometimes even warmer. (You might want to bring your golf clubs!)

Colorado’s glistening sunny skies, powder-carpeted valleys and snowcapped mountains make it a wonderland filled with winter fun things to do: Snowmobiling, Sledding, Tubing, Ice Skating, Snowshoeing, Cross-country/Nordic Skiing, Horse-drawn Sleigh Rides, Ice Fishing and Spa Services.

A few of my favorite places to visit in winter are Rocky Mountain National Park, Garden of the Gods, Iron Mountain Hot Springs, Grand Mesa, and the Poudre Canyon.

Make a reservation at one of the family friendly resorts on our Winter Lodging Section. You will find traditional accommodations like the Comfort Suites Golden West at Evergreen Parkway to RV Sites near Ski Resorts at Aunt Sara's River Dance RV Resort and if your looking for a cozy cabin try Three Rivers Resort or a classic resort town experience at Rocky Mountain Resorts. There is no time like today to make your winter vacation dream come true.
