Tucked into the mountains above Denver, Breckenridge is a wonderful place to visit while exploring Colorado.
Set a little back from I-70, Breckenridge is uniquely situated for easy access to all the fun things the region has to offer. From rugged, heart-pumping mountain bike trails to hikes to the alpine, there is something for everyone to enjoy in Breck.
You can get out boating on Lake Dillon in the summer and, come winter, hit the slopes at any of the regional ski resorts. If you need a break from the crowds on the slopes, you can still get a taste of snow by snowkiting on the frozen lake.
No matter what you do, you’ll love coming back to any of these cozy Breckenridge cabins to warm up and refresh.
