A family vacation in Snowmass, Colorado is destined to be wonderful no matter what time of year you are visiting, but in the winter, we must admit it shines a little brighter. Maybe it’s the blanket of snow that covers the countryside, contrasting so beautifully with the colorful winter clothing being worn, or maybe it is the added excitement of the holidays that makes our mountain town look like a picture on a holiday card. Whatever the reason, choosing our family friendly Timberline condos for your vacation accommodations is always a good idea, offering the comfort you need and the amenities that will help you stick to a routine with younger children and let older children be themselves, just as they would at home!
Eat, Sleep, Ski, Repeat
Of course, your winter visit is going to involve a lot of time on the slopes, and because Aspen Snowmass Ski Resort is designed for guests of most ages, there is less chance of boredom being an issue. Ski lessons are offered on the mountain, divided into age groups, so if you are an adult who has never skied before you don’t have to be embarrassed that your child picks up the sport quicker than you do. And because winter is our most popular season, this is also when there will be all types of special events that occur, including opening weekend parties and so much more. Also offering a large variety of restaurants, there really is no reason to leave the mountain—at least during daylight hours!
Ice Skating in Snowmass Village
Skiing isn’t the only outdoor activity in the winter months, especially since Snowmass Village offers its own outdoor ice rink, costing nothing and adding a romantic edge to the occasion for the parents while still providing a family friendly experience. Outdoor fireplaces will help you stay warm and cozy in between glides around the rink, and as the snow falls, the lights twinkle, and music works its magic, this will be an activity you will remember long after you hung up your ice skates for the night.
Tasty Adventures in Snowmass
We love exploring new restaurants while on vacation, and during your vacation in Snowmass, there are plenty of places to dine at where your children won’t feel uncomfortable or out of place. The Stew Pot, 62 Ebert Lane in Snowmass Village, is famous for its laidback vibe and comfort food, and if you have a taste for the spicy life, we highly recommend you try their Habanero Pork Stew. If you like the idea of finding a restaurant where you can be a regular, the type of diner that they know your name and your coffee preferences, The Daly Diner at 16 Kearn’s Road #103 can be that place! Serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day of the week (closed on Christmas), their chocolate chip pancakes will become your new obsession. After 3 PM, their bar menu will help fill the empty space inside after a long day on the slopes!
