Warm Mountain Lodge Decor:
Enjoy a charming vacation home with the warmth and feel of Colorado. Pamper yourself with every amenity you would expect from fine accommodations. The beds are plush with down comforters and pillow tops. The decor is very warm and inviting with a winter lodge feel. The steam shower is absolute heaven after a long day on the slopes. The over sized deck has incredible views of the mountains and ski runs of Breckenridge. The view of the stars is incredible; if you have a telescope you might want to bring it along. The kitchen would please any chef. Enjoy soft music from XM radio through the ceiling speakers as you sit by the fire looking out at the mountains. We are adding many special touches to make this home a lifetime experience. There is a foosball table upstairs, and several other games to play on a cold winter night. (dominoes, cards, poker chips, and other games provided). Each bedroom and the living room has a LCD TV as well. We look forward to having you as our guests.

Ski:
In January of 2007, Breckenridge Ski Resort installed the BreckConect 8-passenger Gondola. Additionally, the Imperial Express Super Chair takes skiers to 12,840 ft. (the highest chairlift in North America) where they can enjoy 'Snow White' 150 acres of expert terrain above the tree line. Breckenridge has a wide array of beginner and intermediate ski areas too! Want to explore more skiing? Copper Mountain is just west; Keystone is 7 miles east (take the road around lake Dillon) and A-Basin is just 7 miles farther and all are accessible from the Free Summit Stage bus. Enjoy main street during the day, and then come home to a warm quiet home instead of a small room. Highland Greens offers the serenity of the Rockies with the convenience to get to the night life of Breckenridge. You'll love the radiant in-floor heating during the winter months as you walk across the warm tile and wood floors. From the Frisco Transportation center you can also take a coach to Vail or Denver Airport.
Golf:
During golf season. The Breckenridge Golf club is just 2 blocks from our townhome. The club house has a great restaurant and bar with a beautiful view of a small lake. The course is challenging, and the views are phenomenal. Other championship courses are just 15 minutes away. I like the one at Keystone. In the winter the pro shop turns into a cross country ski shop and Nordic Center. Their are horse drawn sleigh rides which include dinner and warm drinks. The clubhouse is just a 1/2 mile up the road. Take Tiger Road to the top and you will find 3 trail heads as well as mining ruins. There are beavers in the ponds and a wide variety of wild life including owls, elk, moose and even black bears.
Other Activities:
Outlet Stores, Ice Skating Arena, Breckenridge Rec Center and Fitness Club
