Planning a family reunion or big group trip with friends? One thing you’ll discover while planning, some destinations can be more accommodating than others.
Get the gang together for a rustic escape this summer and head to Colorado. Between the ski lodges of Aspen, city life of Denver and natural beauty of Mesa Verde National Park and Rocky Mountain National Park, your group will have plenty of options for fun and adventure.
Opt for a budget-friendly stay in Telluride, Colo., boasting endless small-town charm, historic landmarks, forested peaks and canyon vistas. Being the off season, the summer offers the same downtown attractions and varied outdoor adventure, including rock climbing, hiking, biking, swimming and anything else you can think of, but at a lower price.
Stay on the edge of town with a full house from Airbnb, Vrbo, HomeAway or FlipKey. Chat with your host about the neighborhood and surrounding attractions, but do your own research as well and scour the map for nearby attractions and proximity to your group’s interests. Map out your top choices, where you want to go, what you want to do and narrow it down into an itinerary.
Divide and conquer and book a few rooms for your group at the Victorian Inn or go a bit more upscale for a Hotel Telluride Experience. Book several large rooms for your group and stay together, save money and enjoy quality time, or grab your own space and enjoy easy access to both downtown action and outdoorsy pursuits at the Telluride Ski Resort.
