See why Forbes magazine named Breckenridge as one of the best ski resorts in Colorado:
Breckenridge is a great family resort just 104 miles from Denver. Thanks to its abundance of green trails and plenty of areas for lessons, it has become a popular place for adult beginners and little ones alike. But that doesn’t exclude those more advanced skiers—187 total trails mean there is something here for every level. One of the coolest and most unique elements of the town of Breck is its direct access to the mountain from Main Street. Ski right from the top of North America’s highest chairlift at the close of the day directly to your favorite après watering hole—nearly the entire town is ski-in, ski-out. Speaking of the town, its historic mining town charm is one-of-a-kind. Here, you’ll find plenty of shops and restaurants, sans the stuffy feel of some of the other more expensive ski towns in Colorado.
Our trip package includes seven nights (Sat-Sat) in the Marriott Residence Inn (sleep at about 9,600 ft) with daily buffet breakfast, RT air from Washington to Denver (details below), and ground transfers.
Located in Breckenridge's Historic District, this all-suite hotel features kitchens and sofa sleepers in all suites. Hotel amenities include a free full breakfast, free high speed WIFI, free local ski area shuttle, a fitness center, an outdoor pool & hot tub open year-round, barbeque grills, and a 24-hour front desk.
The hotel's Base Camp Lodge cocktail bar offers light dining and a lounge area for socializing or watching the latest news on its flat-screen TVs.
The room descriptions are available on the hotel website. Our lodging block includes:
- Studio Suites with two Queen beds, a sofa bed, and a full kitchen.
- One-Bedroom Suites with a King bed, a sofa bed, a separate living room, and a full kitchen
Single Rooms: Listed price is for double occupancy. Add $1,545 for the Single Supplement if you want a room to yourself.
2BR Suites: Two-bedroom suites with either a K/K or or K/QQ configuration may be available. If interested, contact trip leader to confirm availability and cost.
Lift Tickets: Lift tickets are not included in the trip package, as Vail Resorts is no longer offering competitively priced group lift tickets. Epic Passes, which must be individually purchased (not through the club), provide the best value.
Epic Passes: Participants are encouraged to purchase an Epic Pass product of some type early-on. The following options would cover your skiing for the trip; prices shown are as of March 2024 when 2024-25 pass sales began, but will increase in the ensuing months, and be unavailable after early December:
- A "full" Epic Pass ($982)
- Military Epic Pass – Active/Retired ($172); Veteran ($561)
- Epic Day Pass (the non-holiday-rate for an "all resort" pass)
– ($492 for 5 days; $573 for 6 days)
- Epic Local Pass ($731)
- Tahoe Local Pass ($621) - 5 days total at The Rockies
You may purchase Epic Passes directly from Vail Resorts, but we suggest that you visit our Epic & Ikon Pass page to explore the various options available, including promotional offers from our tour operators. They offer all except the military passes, which must be purchased directly from Vail Resorts.
