Ah, Breckenridge, Colorado. If you’ve ever been you know how special of a place it is and if you’re a first time visitor, you’re in for a treat. There’s a little something for everyone whether you’re here to ski, or just hang out and enjoy the mountain views.
It’s perfect for a family reunion, a couples trip or just a fun getaway in the mountains. If you’re looking for an outdoor adventure, it has it all from fishing to skiing to mountain biking and more. If you’re not up for an adrenaline rush, it has the cutest little bustling Main Street with lots of shops and restaurants.
I’m lucky enough to call this place home and I’m always so eager to share how special of a place it is! In this blog post, I’ll share some cool and unique places to stay around the Breckenridge area from hotels with all the amenities to cute little cabins in the woods.
Vacation rentals in Breckenridge
There are so many gorgeous vacation rentals in Breckenridge if you’re looking for a little more privacy or a want little more room to spread out with a homier vibe.
If you like to be close to the hustle and bustle, stay closer to Main Street and Breckenridge Resort. If you want something a little quieter, secluded, and remote, check out cabin vacation rentals a little outside of town like towards Blue River.
Gravity Haus is a trendy, modern boutique ski-in ski-out hotel right at the base of Peak 9 and right off Main Street! The best of both worlds. They have all the amenities like a restaurant and bar (amazing food and cocktails), a cute coffee shop downstairs, a dry sauna, and a shop with gear rentals.
Why we love it: Ski-in, ski-out, right on Main Street, onsite restaurant, coffee shop
If you’re looking for a similar spot, check out The Village at Breck right next door for condos with kitchens and a more traditional family atmosphere.
Grand Colorado on Peak 8
The Grand Colorado on Peak 8 is the mecca for a luxury ski trip, ski-in, ski-out experience! It’s tucked away a little further from Main Street, but you can take the gondola right into town or a quick bus ride or a quick 5 minute drive. They have so many amenities and more of a resort like experience.
It’s steps away from the Colorado SuperChair, but my personal favorite thing about it is their slopeside hot tubs and pools. They have a spa, on-site restaurants, bars, coffee shops, an arcade, and even a private movie theatre (highly recommend reserving a spot.) This is one of my favorite spots for a treat yo’self staycation!
Why we love it:Ski-in, ski-out, slopeside pools and hot tubs, on-site restaurants and bars, movie theatre, infinity spa
The Lodge at Breckenridge
The Lodge at Breckenridge is a more rustic hotel and lodge and has some of the most amazing views of the resort! It’s on the opposite side of the ski resort, so you get a full panoramic view of Breckenridge Resort. It’s about a 10-minute drive to Main Street and sits high up on Baldy Mountain. It’s super close to lots of fun hiking or mountain bike trails and tucked away so it’s nice and quiet.
Why we love it: Amazing views, shuttle into town, on-site restaurant and bar, near hiking trails
BlueSky Resort
BlueSky Resort is a hotel with the perfect location near Peak 8. Secluded, but also a close walk to town and ski-in, ski-out with the Snowflake lift right outside.
Why we love it: Outdoor hottubs and heated pool, 10 minute walk to town, ski-in, ski-out, a small spa
The Fireside Inn
If a B&B or hostel is more your style, The family-owned Fireside Inn is right in the heart of downtown Breckenridge. The building is an 200 year old space in the historic area.
Why we love it:Right in the heart of downtown Breckenridge
The Ranahan
The Ranahan is a newer luxury hotel just outside of Breckenridge. It’s the perfect hub if you want to explore Breckenridge, and other towns in Summit County. It’s not super close to anything so it’s perfect if you plan on renting a car and exploring the mountains.
Why we love it:Onsite bar, heated outdoor pool, hot tubs, indoor water slide for kids
Hi! I'm Kelsey!
My photography journey started in 2009 when I fell in love with documenting moments and capturing people in their element.
11 years ago, I moved to the amazing little mountain town of Breckenridge, Colorado from Raleigh, North Carolina.
Wild to say I've photographed over 300 weddings and portrait sessions all over. I started this small but mighty team of local mountain photographers to capture whatever season of life you're in.
