Small Cattle Town Also Best Place To Ski

For those looking for a fun time skiing as well as a good resort to stay, Steamboat Springs, Colorado perfectly fits the bill. Known for it’s “powder”, the town has some of the driest snow in the U.S.

In addition, Steamboat has an abundance snowfall having averaged more than 300 inches of snow each winter for the past few years. But Steamboat Springs is also a great tourist destination area.

But this town is a bit more than a simple cookie cutter tourist trap. In fact, part of its charm flows from its real life history as a small cattle town. And many visitors love the small town feel that the community exudes. The casual atmosphere surrounding the town, puts you at ease from the moment you arrive.

The community of Steamboat is also very much price friendly, especially for families. Skiing is one of the more expensive sports. And compared with places like Aspen and Vail, this is a welcome oasis for those seeking for a bit of price relief. Steamboat also has many good winter ski packages available.

Another key to getting price breaks on your lodgings or cheap ski resorts is to opt to rent one of the many nearby condominiums. A condominium will typically give you a much better deal than you will get from most of the hotels. Most will also have nearby shuttle services to take you to and from the slopes.

But skiing is not the only thing that Steamboat has to offer. You’ll also find dedicated snowmobiling trails with breathtaking views that you can take advantage of on the days where you want a break from the ski slopes. And for the more adventurous souls, there’s dog sledding – probably one of the few places you’ll ever get to enjoy this past time outside of Alaska.
