Alps Boulder Canyon Inn Packages

Why we like it

• This secluded location is still a quick drive to the primary attractions in the area
• The complimentary breakfast includes quiche and homemade lemon curd
• Located on the city bus route, get to both the resort and downtown without your car
• Post-skiing, head back to the inn for evening desserts including cookies and key lime pie
• Walk along the Boulder Creek Path, which has pristine river views
• Drive to the ski resort in 30 minutes and downtown in 10 minutes
• Scattered fireplaces throughout the property give the lodge a homey feel

Tips

• Ask the staff for recommendations, they love sharing their knowledge of the area
• Located on a windy road, the inn is a bit hard to find the first time
• The western decor means there are animal skins and heads on the wall
• Head to the award-winning Jax Fish House & Oyster Bar for dinner
• The inn is a bit outdated and in need of TLC, but is still charming in its own way
• Stop at the Rocky Mountain Oyster Bar on your way home from skiing for this mountain delicacy
• Sorry, no pets allowed

Location

Hidden in the tall pines on the side of Boulder Canyon, this inn lies in a secluded location directly west of downtown Boulder. You'll be just off the winding canyon road which connects Boulder to Nederland, and a quick drive from both.

• Distance to Eldora ski access: 18 miles
• Within walking distance: The Boulder Creek Path and a bus stop
• Transportation: Though a short walk to the city bus stop, a car is recommended for easier access to downtown and the resort.
