Après Ski in WP: Pull Up a Chair and Soak Up the Sun on a Patio this Spring! 

It can feel like everyone comes out of hibernation when warmer weather and longer days grace the mountains each year! Instead of curling up by the fire with a puzzle, good book, glass of wine, or cup of hot tea after a day at the mountain, enjoying après ski outside on a sunny patio brings those spring skiing vibes we've been waiting for all winter. Don't get me wrong - I love taking advantage of the mid-winter snows and prime conditions at the mountain, but there is something just magical that happens when the temperatures tick up and we turn back the clocks every spring. The lost hour of sleep is well worth the exchange for that extra hour of sunshine each day.

Powder Days, Sunshine, Live Music, and Themed Events Make April at Winter Park Resort a Month-Long Party! 

April showers and May flowers might signal spring in most places, but here in Winter Park, spring brings powder days, bluebird skies, snow "beaches," sunny patios, and a calendar full of events to celebrate the ski season and warmer weather. We shed the layers and embrace the climbing temperatures every spring - early morning skins up the Jane might have us in a t-shirt by the time we reach The Olympia, and the sun is still shining on that last chair that drops us off for a final run down a soft line to our favorite après deck. 

With spring break winding down and town a little quieter, we get to experience the the best of spring each April…

Local Craft Breweries Pair Nicely with Warmer Spring Weather

Colorado is known for its high-quality craft breweries, and Grand County's brewery scene definitely lives up to the hype. From Winter Park to Grand Lake, local brewers and business owners have poured their hearts into creating welcoming environments that bring people together over a pint. Our breweries aren't simply a place to grab après after a day on the hill - they are gathering places that give people the opportunity to connect and share in the love of the mountains and this place we call home.

The A-Frame Club: Winter Park's Newest Lodging & Dining Option Brings Throwback Ski Town Style to Old Town WP

Old Town Winter Park, nestled at the base of Winter Park Resort along the Fraser River, is a hidden gem off the beaten path. Most people bypass it on the way to the resort from town, and its quiet neighborhoods are tucked away from the view of highway drivers. The location is undoubtedly prime (not even half a mile from The Gondola), and its old-school ski town charm is unmistakable. The minds behind Winter Park's newest development, The A-Frame Club, capitalized on that charm, creating a unique experience that pays homage to and celebrates the ski town of yore right in the heart of Old Town Winter Park. The nostalgic vibe is complete with…

Gravity Haus Winter Park: Guest House & Community Hub for Gathering, Working, Exercising, and Adventuring

Downtown Winter Park, ColoradoDriving through Winter Park on Highway 40 might leave you doing a double take and asking yourself, "Was that there before?" New construction and businesses have been popping up on our little "Main Street" these past few years, and it is sometimes hard to keep up with! From residences to boutiques to restaurants, we are grateful for the variety offered in such a small town. We especially appreciate when fresh life and vision is breathed into old spaces. Gravity Haus Winter Park is one such space, having renovated the old Sundowner Motel and reopened as a guest house, cafe, co-working space, and fitness center. This new addition has been welcomed by…
