Every morning felt like I was in a Bob Ross painting, except with more snow and zero happy little trees trying to gaslight me. Staff: super helpful and nice; and the concierge breakfast was solid, not Michelin-star fancy, but it had enough bacon and caffeine to trick my body into thinking it could still snowboard.

We absolutely loved staying at the Lodge at Breckenridge! It is so homey and comfortable. The rooms…read moreare beautiful! We had absolutely stunning views from both of our rooms. The hot tubs with the mountain views are absolutely amazing! The breakfast were above and beyond. We also had dinner in the restaurant a couple nights and the food was extremely good with great service! They are very dog friendly, which was wonderful. The staff are very accommodating and friendly. The only warning I will say is, they are also a wedding venue, so if you don't like loud music from the DJ, you might want to see if a wedding is scheduled during your time there. otherwise, this place is absolutely amazing and wonderful and we plan on coming back as soon as possible.

We rode the gondola from the Main Street and came up here for future ski trip. It was beautiful but…read moresooooo crowded. Free gondola ride with three stops but it was a great exploration. I don't think I'm a ski fan (I tried it and once was more than enough) but still love the beauty I see. We were told that NYE was also crazy busy but didn't realize Valentine weekend would be too. Beautiful nevertheless!

I have this list of resorts to ski at that I have been checking off over the years. I feel like…read moreBreckenridge Ski Resort has been on that list forever. My buddy and I finally made the drive over from Arizona and had a blast skiing here. Breckenridge Ski Resort (or just Breck) is a popular resort that is owned and operated by Vail Resorts, Inc. We have Epic Passes and used them while we were here. Breckenridge Ski Resort opened in 1961 and has a total of 35 chair lifts. It has five peaks that are part of the Ten Mile Range. We stayed in nearby Frisco and made the short drive over each morning. We then took the BreckConnect Gondola to Peak 8 and began our day there. Lower Peak 8 is home to the base village of Breckenridge Ski Resort. There are places to eat, shop and rent gear in this area. For trails, there is a good mix of beginner, intermediate and advanced runs that you can access from Lower Peak 8. Check out Ullr, the Norse god of Snow statue while you are here at base village. My buddy and I are intermediate skiers that mix in some black runs here and there. I personally have been skiing since my teenage years. We spent most of our first day skiing runs off the Colorado and Rocky Mountain Superchair lifts to get our warmup reps in. We then finished our day hitting some blue runs over at Peak 6. There are a number of places to grab food and drinks. We hit Sevens (at the base of Peak 7) for an early morning Bloody Mary. We also grabbed lunch at T-Bar over at base village. But for the most part, we snacked on granola bars and other goodies that we carried in our pockets. We like to grab hotels that have a big continental breakfast so that we don't have to spend a lot of cash on food on the slopes. Day Two we wanted more challenging runs. Some people told us that Whale's Tail is a good challenge and fun to ski on. Whale's Tail is a double black diamond run that has a 604-foot drop, from 12,858 to 12,254 feet. It is nestled between Peak 7 and 8 and you have to take the Imperial Express lift to get to it. Imperial Express is the highest lift in North America at 12,840 feet. Crossing the catwalk in strong windy weather was no fun. But you get beautiful views of the entire mountain from the top of Whale's Tail once you get there. If was worth the challenge and we had fun skiing down it. The rest of the day we took it easy and skied mostly green and blue runs over at Peak 8 and 9 to wrap up our trip. We enjoyed hanging out in the town of Breckenridge after our two days of skiing. The town itself is very charming and has a number of bars and restaurants. Breckenridge attracts all sorts of outdoor enthusiasts in both the summer and winter. Breckenridge Ski Resort has made the town a popular destination for skiers since it opened in the 60's. The town is definitely worth a stop after a day on the slopes.

Valdoro Mountain Lodge is a mixed experience for me overall, I'd rate it 2.5-3 stars…read more We stayed here during New Year's week. The location is definitely a plus it's close to town, walkable to shops and restaurants, and near the slopes, which makes it convenient if you're planning a ski trip. The property is also part of the Hilton Grand Vacations portfolio, and they offer self-parking, which I believe is complimentary. That said, the property itself feels pretty outdated. While I believe some of the rooms have been renovated, the overall facilities, lobby, gym, spa, and general décor could really use a refresh. The front desk area in particular felt a bit drab and not very welcoming. Check-in was just okay. We are Hilton owners (though not at this specific property), and while I understand priority may go to owners here, it was a little disappointing that we couldn't get a better room especially since the property didn't seem very full at the time. Our two-bedroom unit itself was decent. The showers had great water pressure, which I appreciated, but the bedding could use improvement the pillows were too soft for my liking. The bathroom overall was fine, although I personally didn't feel comfortable using the bathtub as it didn't seem as clean as I would've liked. I did like the fireplace in the room which came in handy and the balcony was nice. One downside is that housekeeping isn't automatically included you need to meet a certain stay threshold, which wasn't ideal. The amenities were underwhelming. The gym was very small and not well-equipped. The spa didn't really feel like a spa, and when I tried to use the steam room, it wasn't even on. There are multiple jacuzzis, but one wasn't working during our visit, so I had to move to another and share, which wasn't ideal. They do offer complimentary coffee and hot cocoa in the lobby, but it's only available for a short window and is more of a self-serve packet setup, which we did not like and didn't use. The biggest issue for me was the lack of follow-up from staff. After checkout, I realized I had left behind a small bag of items in the room. I called multiple times and was told each time that someone would follow up with housekeeping and call me back but I never received a call. When I finally reached someone again, I was told the items couldn't be found. The lack of communication and follow-through left a bad impression. Overall, while the location is great and the rooms are decent, the outdated facilities, inconsistent service, and lack of follow-up make it hard for me to return.

We stayed here for 4 nights in a 3 bedroom room. This was so nice for our family since we have…read moremultiple children! Great amenities. They have hot tubs. When we were using the hot tub we were the only people in this area so that was nice. They've got steam rooms, a gym, a lounge, a game room, and some grills out back from the 2nd floor. Also they do have a ski shop where you can rent equipment or buy things like hats, gloves, refreshments, etc. The room was nice. Our bed was comfortable. I enjoyed having both a tub and a shower in our bathroom. The people working here were amazing. Friendly and would quickly attend to any needs that we have. For example anytime we called the shuttle they would be there pretty soon afterward! Seriously the employees here really is what made this place earn its 5 star rating! Great location close to the slopes and close to Main Street for shopping and dining!

The bathroom was spacious and something like you would have at a wellness center. The view off the balcony of the mountains in the distance is also just breathtaking. The bed was comfortable and had the right amount of softness and firmness. This was a top tier experience. The pool was heated, and the jacuzzi provided much relief as well. Guests seem to keep to themselves but are friendly. Highly recommend staying here!

The people are great. It's the facilities that underwhelmed me…read more When you pull up, you're greeted by solid wood doors (see pic). It doesn't matter, but it's odd and kind of funny. I wasn't sure I was in the right place! : ) The front desk staff is very kind. You see the Marriott training at work. The garage -- while I'm sure an excellent thing to have when the snow is falling -- is pretty small...and parking a larger car is a challenge. I stayed in a studio, which has a small kitchen (see pic). It's pretty small. The shower was odd: hot water for about three minutes, followed by 90 seconds of ice cold water. That cycle would keep repeating until you wave the white flag. LOL The heat works well, but see the photo of how the room gets heated -- my son (when we he was young) would absolutely have wanted to touch it! There is a large, outdoor pool and hot tub that I did not use. I saw one couple in the hot tub. The studio was spotless; the housekeeping staff is excellent!

I'm not sure where to begin, so I will just lay out my experience: I drove from Fort Worth to Breckenridge, got to the hotel, valet got me squared away (as I had 2 karts of luggage to bring to the room). I had my dog, and he has an expensive diet with fresh ground frozen meats. Trying to get settled in, I wanted to crash out ASAP, but I had to unload a plethora of booze and a few other things from the fridge - which I immediately realized did not have any sort of freezer. No problem, I just opened my windows and stuck the meat out on the sill - no problem keeping it frozen. Wanting to wind down (super strung out from that drive), I checked out what was on TV. Thank you EVERYONE who left their subscriptions logged in! I got into some shows that I would have never seen otherwise! Then I thought I'd pop some popcorn - no microwave (wtf). I seriously thought about walking out to the lobby in my undies to get my corn popped, but the building was freezing cold. I highly recommend carrying a hot plate and small pot, because I always do, and hardly ever need it - except for this time. I never popped my corn, but made plenty of soup. Then came time to actually crash out. I like to bathe before I bed in, so that's what I did. I ran the water in the tub on full hot until full. The room was so cold, the tub cooled the water significantly, but that really didn't bug me too bad. It's when I was layed down in the tub when I realized I had to stand up each time I needed soap and shampoo lol... Hey, no prob, I did that, relaxed, everything was great, even the sliding barn door :D I crawled into bed, and it was GREAT. Maybe my own bed sucks, but I was in heaven...... until it all started. I could hear EVERYTHING! Doors slamming, people talking, dogs barking (to which mine responded - uggh), and TRASH TRUCKS OMG! These things really were all I have to complain about. Every member of staff: cleaning ladies, valet guys, TALENTED bartenders, etc... we're great! I am giving 4 stars, because I'm really not into the ski resort thing enough to know what is the norm, but I have to bring these things to your attention. I would probably stay there again. I've read the 1, 2, and 3 star reviews, and I sympathize. My vacation was great, but the room was the cilantro (great to some, awful to others).

We checked in around 8 pm. Got a very warm welcome from Kyle at check-in and from Graham at Concierge. Parking is easy and convenient. The room was amazing. We've stayed at places from hostels, to rundown roadside motels to five-star resorts and we'd have to say that our stay here was all around great. The restaurant was great for a last minute meal, but didn't have a ton of offerings nor did it have value priced meals. It also closes at 9 pm which isn't ideal if you tend to eat late. The facilities were all great. Had we not bought into the property, we would definitely return again for a quick getaway.

Fireside inn was a GREAT find. I was coming in late (8p) and leaving early ish (7:30a) so really I…read morejust wanted a safe place to shower and sleep. I found fireside online and it was by far the most affordable option in Breckenridge for a single night so I went for it in a two person dorm, and luckily I happened to be the only one in that room that night! The room was definitely snug but it was cozy and very comfortable and I slept very well. Finding the place was also very easy, they provide very clear instructions and there is plenty of parking at the church across the street (just mind their specific parking instructions and you won't have any trouble). Re: the interior: it's actually a very large place with two full baths and one half bath. I never even saw/heard another guest when I came but again it was late. The vibe was that it was a very comfy, chill place - they have soothing music playing over by the office door where the coffee/tea machines are, and there is a small kitchen and living room area. They had a real fire going in the living room area and there were games and books and lots of "things to do" brochures around, so truly it felt like being in a cozy cabin. I genuinely really loved that vibe. Not to mention it's quite close to the main road - you could easily walk but because it was raining heavily the night I came, I did drive all of 3 minutes to avoid walking 15 in the rain to the bar on Main Street I wanted to go to. They also sent me a text when i came in case i had questions, so they are available to help you. Overall - if you're coming and staying here for just a night or two and all you need is a bed/shower/safe space, this place is GREAT. Admittedly the rooms aren't big (at least mine wasn't), but again as a solo traveler it was fine. Would def rec to friends :)

Sturdy, grated outside steps lead to this suite, for safe access and for privacy. The location is unbeatable, just a 3-block walk to town and to all of the shops and restaurants. The "Free Ride" city bus stops in front of the Fireside Inn, and can take you to the Gondola and Breck Station, if you don't feel like making the 7-minute walk. [Tip: Epic Mountain Express shuttle vans from the airport can drop you directly at the Fireside Inn!] Our host Madi communicated beautifully before and during our visit. She and her family have put a lot of love and thought into making this a warm refuge from the cold and excitement that is Breckenridge.

I personally had a really positive experience with my sales person Matt S. He was informed, and answered our questions. Of course they will embellish a few things, but there has not been one fact that was a complete lie as some claim. No it's not a scam as people claim. Just needed to share my experience on this, as I think a lot of people buy property they can't afford and then complain when it's difficult to reverse their bad decision. The property itself is just stunning with views from most units I've stayed at. Our two bedroom Coloradan unit faces the ski slopes. The interior being 1700 sq. ft. is commodious and super slick. The kitchen and dinning area can easily accommodate dinner for 10 at the dinning table alone with 6 more seats at the kitchen island. The living room area is equally accommodating. The decor is modern but still has the mountain feeling. The resort accommodations are amazing with several hot tubs, pool, fitness center, arcade and five movie theaters. The movie theaters are well equipped with big screens, theater seating and surround sound to die for. The only thing that is a bit lacking is the dinning situation. Very limited on the premises, but downtown of Breckenridge, which is a short drive away, more than compensates for this. Overall, if you love skiing, this in and out ski resort will not disappoint. Not big on owning timeshare, rent a vila and enjoy the powder anyways.

It's an affordable outdoorsy adventure lover's dream spot- a motor lodge that's been renovated into a trendy, useful motel to serve your adventury needs. The property also has 2 firepits & they sell wood too. Even better- they have a coffee shop onsite that serves up great espresso drinks & burritos from 7a-7p! The staff is super too.. and the cafe isn't expensive either! The room was soooo cool and functional! The rooms have a hammock, bike racks, boot dryers, & everything you need for an outdoor getaway full of adventure. The shower was a little small, but you only need it to rinse off the sweat & dirt you're covered in from being outdoors all day! The bed was decently comfy, and it was cool that it had a bunkbed to accommodate more people if needed. The microfridge & microwave were great, an electric kettle with tea/instant coffee are provided, and the fridge even had a few stocked things for purchase if you needed. Each room also has a few outdoor gear that you can take with you & purchase if you want! Think: yeti cooler, koozies, travel mugs, etc. So cool! The heat worked well in the room but I didn't see an AC, though that wasn't needed for our fall getaway in mid-October :) All in all, LOGE is definitely one of my favorite spots in Breck... it's affordable & gives you the opportunity to stay in the area without spending hundreds a night. I'll be back!!
