Nestled high in the Colorado Rockies, Crested Butte Mountain Resort is a winter wonderland in every sense of the words. The snowy slopes offer some of the best skiing in the world, with runs for everyone from beginners to experts. Then there’s the snowshoe loop, a snowboarding pipe, sleigh rides and more.
Your future Winter Olympians will have a snow-ball at the resort’s brand-new Camp CB, which includes skiing and snowboarding lessons, a tubing hill and a real-snow igloo with kids’ activities inside. Mom and dad will love the resort’s newly remodeledElevation Hotel & Spa, with luxury rooms, a spa and fitness center, as well as a slope-side sundeck and fire pit perfect for post-skiing relaxation. The resort also offers free ski valet service to help pooped parents lug heavy gear.
American Airlines offers direct flights from Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport to Gunnison/Crested Butte Regional Airport, which is about 30 minutes from the Colorado resort. Flights are also available from Denver, Chicago, Atlanta and Salt Lake City (in case you want to visit faraway family before jetting off on your vacation!).
