My husband have been skiing in Colorado for over 20 years and have tried most every ski resort within 2-4 hours of the Denver airport. Copper Mountain has become our favorite!! so much so, that we chose it as the location for our wedding. We got married at mountain top and it could not have been more perfect!! Not as glitzy or expensive as Vail or Aspen but high quality skiing, convenient to navigate the mountain, outstanding views!!
Staying at the resort became a natural as we spent more and more time there over each of our trips. It is conveniently located right off of Interstate 70. There are multiple types of accommodations. The staff, at all levels, are extremely helpful, always!
Since the mountain is naturally arranged by level of skiing difficulty, you can often be placed in a facility that matches your abilities. There are resort based shuttle buses that can conveniently move you from one part of the mountain to the other. If you do not have a car, you can ride the free Summit stage (bus) to the nearest town,Frisco, to expand your options for shopping, restaurants, etc. There is a fitness center and pool on premises.
If you stay at the mountain, you will likely get a Secret Pass as part of your lift ticket accommodations. This pass gets you into a dedicated line that by-passes the usual line in the maze. If you are not a local, this can be a BIG value on crowded days. It also gets you early access on a couple of lifts as well so you can get first tracks if you are an early riser.
Family friendly, ski school, child care facilities and just some of the most wonderful skiing all around! If you haven't been there, you have missed something very special!
Room Tip: There is a convenience store on premises if you need groceries. There is also a large Safeway in Fri...
