Winter Park Lodging – Winter Park Hotels

Just a short drive west of Denver’s metropolitan area, vacationers and winter sports enthusiasts alike commonly find themselves taking in the breathtaking sights and scenery of Winter Park, Colorado. This hidden Rocky Mountain gem plays host to thousands of visitors every year in search of a getaway from the city or fun for the entire family – or some enjoy surrounding themselves in sheer natural beauty. Winter Park has so much to offer, including charming boutiques to shop in, exquisite dining or exciting festivals in the town center. No matter what you’re after, surely it can be found in Winter Park.

Nestled in the awe-inspiring peaks of the Rocky Mountains just 90 minutes west of Denver’s city limits, Winter Park is home to some of the most desired ski slopes in the continental United States. Commonly known as “Colorado’s Highest,” Winter Park holds the highest elevation of any incorporated town in the United States at 12,060 feet above sea level. Early on, initial settlements first sprung up during the construction of the Moffat Tunnel when a local merchant named “Doc” Graves built 26 tourist cabins, a café and service station. Recognized for the site’s beauty and sheer potential as a getaway location, Graves powered the small mountain village by means of a water wheel he installed at the nearby Vasquez Creek. Enjoying rare economic prosperity during the ominous Great Depression, the Winter Park Ski Resort opened its doors to patrons in 1939. Thousands flocked to Winter Park over the years simply to hit the slopes on the resort’s three interconnected peaks – Winter Park, Mary Jane and Vasquez Ridge. Despite the tourist buzz and years of success, it wasn’t until August 1, 1978 that Winter Park, Colorado was officially founded.

With all there is to offer, Winter Park lodging enjoys constant activity year round. During the winter months, Winter Park hotels are hubs for winter sport activity and excitement. But not just a ski town, Winter Park also boasts lots of warm weather activity including hiking, mountain biking, fishing and sight seeing. The town center also provides patrons with numerous shopping and dining opportunities.

No matter what you’re looking for, Winter Park is arguably one of the most accommodating vacation towns found throughout the Rocky Mountains. Winter Park lodging is warm and cozy and offers a wide array of vacationing choices. Anyone of the Winter Park hotels is sure to fit your needs. So whether it’s summer fun or winter sports activity, you’re sure to get your fill in Winter Park.
