Ski season is in full swing here in Denver, and if you’ve never visited Denver in the winter then you are truly missing out. The snow is unbeatable – afterall, it is the mile-high city. There’s over a dozen fantastic ski resorts in local area, but this one’s our favorite: Winter Park.

Winter Park is practically situated on Denver’s doorstep. It has a huge ski basin owned by the center of Denver itself, and shares in the fantastic Colorado snow. But what really sets Winter Park apart though is the community; since the community has to support the locals and tourists, you can find pretty much the best of anything in Winter Park. Winter Park is so close that you could get here directly from the airport in an hour and a half. Not to shabby for terrain worthy of the olympics.

Unlike some of it’s more pretentious brethren, a weekend at Winter Park won’t break the bank. Many of the local “no frill” lodgings, such as the Rocky Mountain Inn and Hostel and Vintage hotels have rates as low as one hundred dollars a night. You won’t find rates this low at any of the other Colorado resort towns; visitors report that the lodgings are a great bargain, just remember to keep your expectations in check. After all, it is a hostel environment.

However, lift ticket prices are pretty much the same no matter where you go around Denver, starting at almost $100 for a single day ticket, with discounts for additional days. As the saying goes, you gotta pay to play.
