AN AUTHENTIC & AFFORDABLE COLORADO MOUNTAIN GETAWAY
Win a Weekend Getaway!
Imagine charming, historic mountain towns nestled among the highest peaks in Colorado, surrounded by high alpine forests, pristine streams and glacial lakes. Imagine a rich history as America's bawdiest mining boomtown with infamous characters such as Baby Doe, Horace Tabor and Doc Holliday. Imagine endless outdoor recreation...hiking, mountain biking, fishing, camping, skiing, and more. Imagine all of this, and you'll start to understand why you should visit Leadville and Twin Lakes. Both towns are located on the Top of the Rockies Scenic and Historic Byway. You'll find lodging ranging from an elegant Victorian hotel, charming B&Bs and inns, to cabins, rustic lodges and modern motels. If you’re looking for a quick bite to eat, an elegant dinner for two, or a casual family meal, you'll find it here. Your dining choices in Leadville include coffee, pizza and sandwich shops, Mexican cantinas, a steak house, and restaurants specializing in Italian, Chinese, American and bistro-style cuisines. Need some retail therapy? You'll enjoy our specialty shops and antique stores. Throw in some amazing attractions, National Historic Districts, special events, museums and historical tours, and the fact that in 2009, we're celebrating the 150th anniversary of the Gold Rush. Now you're ready to start planning your Colorado mountain getaway!
