Wifi is now available throughout the Inn. So now you can check up on e-mail, Facebook and waste time in your room, on the internet, instead of going out and having fun in the great outdoors! Previously the only free internet access available was in the lobby. Hope you enjoy the new access.
For more information on room rates and availability please contact mycoloradocondo@yahoo.com
Note - the above message contains sarcasm. Wifi is available but there's so much to do in the area you should really go outside and enjoy it!
Welcome!

Ski season is coming up! My skis are ready. Are yours? Reserve your spot today.
The 2012/2013 ski season is only a few short weeks away and hopefully the snow is plentiful this season. Reserve your dates now. Winter Park is scheduled to open on November 14th and Ski Granby Ranch (Sol Vista Basin) is scheduled to open on December 12th. Ski Granby Ranch has night skiing and tubing on Friday and Saturday nights. Check the links area for discount lift tickets and conditions.
If you don't have skis or boards, rentals are easy. You can rent them right in the lobby of the Inn through the Ski Depot Sports. Check with the front desk, sometimes they have discount coupons.
Scroll down the site for 2012/2013 rates and contact information.
If you're not a skier, there are plenty of other things to do in the area like ice fish, sleigh rides, dog sleds, snowmobile rentals, snowshoeing, cross country skiing, hot springs, ice skating.
This past year there have been some updates in our unit. There is new furniture and tv in the living area of the loft. The tubs in the bathroom have been updated with a faux granite finish. The Inn has made some improvements as well this past year and more are planned for 2013.
