With an expansive collection of Colorado vacation rentals in the heart of Grand County, you’ll have unfettered access to the best resorts, winter activities, and attractions. Without further ado, here are eleven ways to ensure a memorable vacation, making the most of your mountain retreat.

 

11 Ways to Maximize Your Enjoyment While Skiing in Colorado

 

  • Ski mid-week by utilizing a midweek season pass or individual day passes
  • Check out night skiing at Granby Ranch. The dates are limited, so be sure to check the schedule from the link above to know what nights will work best for you.
  • Purchase and reserve your spot for other activities like dog sledding and snowmobile tours of the Continental Divide, which are almost as popular as skiing in Colorado. Making sure you have other things to do in Grand County will go a long way in keeping you busy!
  • Add an extra day or two to your travel itinerary for a stress-free drive. You’ll also want to avoid I-70 traffic during peak days.
  • Take a look at our winter activities guide for the latest information regarding the best local spots on and off the mountain.
  • Book the days you want now to secure lift access if you have a season pass.
  • Consider an extended stay. Reach out to us to learn about our extended day deals, and you could have yourself the staycation of a lifetime. Imagine walking through a mountain prairie during your lunch break or skiing down the mountain after your Friday afternoon all-hands meeting!
  • Bring snowshoes and cross country skis. Many local rentals and outfitters are selling out, so booking in advance or bringing your gear will open up more possibilities beyond downhill skiing and snowboarding during busy weekends.
  • Gain peace of mind from knowing we now have very flexible cancellation and deposit policies. Reserve a one-of-a-kind property with the security of canceling outside of 14 days if necessary. 
  • Get all the latest information about what’s going on around Winter Park Resort and Granby Ranch Ski Area by visiting our lift ticket updates page.
