Season in Breckenridge......Help
Posted: Fri September 18, 2009 11:21 AM UTC

Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction in terms of accommodation in breckenridge. Just looking for somewhere cheap (I know, breckenridge is for rich holiday makers that spend $1000 a week, which we cant), warm and in breckenridge or near a bus route if its just outside.

Cant seem to find any information in terms of where to look. Its like they don't have accommodation for people with a normal budget. Any information would be very helpful.

Thank you.

Fall Activities
Posted: Wed August 5, 2009 12:52 AM UTC

Can anyone give me a better idea of what activities are available for fall visitors to the Breckenridge/Summit County area? We're going to be out there for a week in early October. It looks like a lot of the summer activities only run through Labor Day, and the winter season doesn't really start until November. I've had some trouble finding information on things that are still options in the meantime. Thanks for any and all ideas!

Season Accomodation
Posted: Fri June 19, 2009 06:32 AM UTC

We wanting to do a 3-4 month stay in Breckenridge next season and are looking for poniters as to where to try to find some where to stay. Ideally we'd like a 1 bed apartment somewhere walkable to town. Having never been to Breck it's a little hard to know. We're currently living in Australia so as you can imagine it's tricky to organise without asking question... Any help or advice would be great. Cheers.

Cheap Lift Tickets (or at least discounted)
Posted: Tue January 6, 2009 02:06 AM UTC

I figure that Vail Resorts has clamped down on discount lift tickets. Does anybody have any ideas on how to get any discounts for Breck and Keystone? If all fails, there is always the PEAK advance ticket sales, I suppose. Ten bucks is ten bucks.

how late is too late?
Posted: Tue January 6, 2009 12:58 AM UTC

The latest I have been skiing in Colorado is mid to late March. This year I am considering mid April. Breckenridge closes April 19, so I am wondering if conditions get pretty slushy by then?

Renting a car vs. airport shuttle
Posted: Sat November 15, 2008 07:22 AM UTC

In March we will be flying into Denver airport, but staying in Breckenridge. All of the ground transportation I have found between the two is extremely expensive ($120+ per person round trip) for the six people in our group. It would be a little cheaper to rent a car, but seems like a waste as it would just sit parked for 4 days.
Any suggestions or advice? Thanks in advance!

The Alpen vs. Fireside
Posted: Sat December 16, 2006 07:23 AM UTC

I've scanned through the accomodation tips for Breck, and it seems that no one has posted a tip for either of these hostels.

Is there any chance that any of you out there have stayed at either of these places? Can someone tell me which one of these 2 hostels would be better for a) being close to main st. breck, b) character of the place, and c) the characters staying there?

I was planning on staying with a friend in Denver, but it seems that he's got to be on an assignment in WY. So, now I need to make some friends, and am keen to know which of these places would be best for that.

Fishing for Cash
Posted: Thu June 1, 2006 05:42 PM UTC

My husband and I will be staying in Frisco, CO at the end of August. He would love to do a little fishing but all the outfitters I have researched charge a small fortune. Is there anyone out there whom lives near this area and loves to fish? He would be more thanwilling to pay $$ someone to take him out. He can bring waders but has no other equipment. Please advise if anyone is interested.

Timeshare in Breckenridge
Posted: Sun May 14, 2006 03:11 PM UTC

Hi all

I've seen a few very cheap timeshares on ebay, for Breckenridge. I'm not going to jump without more info but they are so cheap it's tempting. It may be a good way to check out the general area.

Has anyone heard of Alpenrose condos, there? (this is one I happened to see on ebay).

thanks...
