Steamboat

This website is supposed to be a comprehensive website to book all of your travel to Steamboat Springs, Co. It is a great search engine, but if you want to enhance your ski or snowboard trip planning, use the website to search properties, but contact the location directly to get more picutres and floor plans. The rates are the same, so it is ok to book on steamboat.com.

Edgemont, Bear Claw and Ptarmagin Inn are great locations (ski in/ ski out right off the main gondola.) I'm sure there are other great ski in/ ski out's, but these are the ones I remember.

Last year there were a large variety of places to rent skis/boards from. This year they cut down the amount of vendors and this reduced the competitive pricing. I am going to contact straight to you directly. We have used them in the past and they were very professional and attentive. You get a 10% off discount if you book a week or more in advance.

As far as ski lessons, this is the only place to get an instructor. Some kind of code or law prohibits ski/board lessons by others who are not employed by Steamboat. Probably a liability issue.

The buses in Steamboat are free and easy to use. Look for the blue bus.
