Gorgeous! I…read morerecently attended a wedding ceremony here and it was perfect! So beautiful! Amazing views of the Mt. Crested Butte and all the flowers! This a great setting. As a guest, it was great. It was easy to find. It had lots of parking (and easy spots to park in). Nice views. Clean bathrooms. Places for shade. Close to the condos and the town. If I lived in Crested Butte this would definitely be the only option for a wedding venue! It is just so gorgeous. The only downside was the amount horseflies! I got mad bug bites allover during the ceremony. And I wasn't the only one. That was a common complaint amongst fellow guests. If you're considering this for your wedding, keep that in mind.

There's so much to love about Avalanche Ranch: 1) Views on views! The 3 hot springs are situated to make great use of the landscape and offer some epic views of Mount Sopris. I chose to stay in the hotter 2 pools during my visit, and it was delightful. 2) They offer a limited number of soak passes per day; which means you get a really relaxing intimate experience. 3) If you're in the mood for a little pampering, they do offer massages! Totally work the indulgence. The therapist takes the time to get to know your specific body needs and helps work out all the knots and kinks. 4) They offer up a variety of accommodations on-site for those that are seeking more of a retreat type experience. Apparently, we booked our massage and soak the same day as AppleFest. While that could be a lovely experience full of pot luck goodies and folk music, it was a bit frustrating to not have been told in advance. Parking was pretty full upon arrival, and it was packed when we left. Oof. Just not prepared for all that during this visit. All in all, Avalanche Ranch was a great way to loosen up some sore stiff muscles. I'd easily make my way back to indulge again. **Pro Tip: Feeling peckish? You can bring in your own food and drinks!

Laurie and Scott were both such kind souls and truly made it worth the stay. When I forgot a water bottle, they graciously offered me one provided water every single morning, and didn't mind 20 kids every morning playing music and cooking breakfast . They truly made this experience your own. They include wonderful things like goat walks, chickens, egg harvesting, and plenty of other things. It's a wonderful campsite run by two wonderful people and when in the Palo is area I would highly recommend it. Thank you for your hospitality I can't thank you for your kindness. I cant wait to brag to next years students about how great you are. -Noelani M Von Stocken

Creekside Chalet review: 5 stars. Honestly, 6 if I could. The hot tub alone deserves its own…read moreaward--basically a therapy session with jets. The place was so clean, I half expected a cleaning fairy to waltz in and curtsy. The furniture and beds? Comfier than a post-Thanksgiving nap. Pillows? Fluffier than a baby alpaca. And those clear plastic boxes for extra bedding? Pure organizational wizardry. Marie Kondo would weep. Cozy blankets made me consider quitting my job and becoming a professional blanket burrito. Pet friendly too--complete with poop bags and couch covers so my dog could live her best life and I didn't have to wrestle her off the sofa like a WWE match. The smoking station on the back porch? Genius. Keeps butts out of nature while still letting smokers feel fancy. The kitchen? Huge table, solid chairs, and a crockpot that made me feel like I'd been transported to a cooking show. Quality pots and pans for days, but only four coffee mugs. FOUR. For a whole chalet. Are we hosting an exclusive espresso club? And one dish towel? My sponge practically filed a complaint. Here's the kicker: it snowed overnight the first night, and by the time we came back from skiing, the walkway was shoveled and the hot tub lid was cleared off like some magical snow-removal ninja had swung by. Honestly, it felt like Santa was moonlighting as chalet maintenance. We did lose heat the first night for a few hours, which gave us an unexpected "polar survival" experience, but those thick duvets were life-savers. Overall, 10/10. Already plotting how to make this my permanent address.

Such a hidden gem! We met both the owner and bartender, who were friends from Chicago.

Several TVs, and they were willing to find a hockey game for my husband. Decor is nice. Maybe a little bright for a basement bar, but unlike your traditional dive bar, it was sparkling clean, so it's not like the dark was required to hide the dirt you'd rather not see.
