A Romantic Getaway in Colorado

Romantic Getaway at Manitou Springs

Manitou Springs’ funky, westerly neighbor nuzzles up to the Garden of the Gods and Pikes Peak with magical charm emanating from a picturesque bed and breakfast inn, lovely antique shops, and famed mineral spring fountains. Soak up the therapeutic Colorado-resort vibe, stroll the historic Penny Arcade, munch on caramel corn, and then settle into a celebrity suite at the Cliff House at Pikes Peak, where you’ll find a steam shower for two, heated towel racks, and a private fireplace.

Beaver Creek

Looking to treat yourselves to a Colorado Valentine’s Day romantic getaway? Embrace Beaver Creek’s “not exactly roughing it” theme and go big with a roaring fireplace and slopeside s’mores at the Ritz-Carlton Bachelor Gulch. During the day, ski like royalty and indulge in perks like heated walkways, meticulous mountain grooming, and the resort’s legendary après chocolate chip cookies. Sign on for a couple’s spa treatments and book a fairytale evening sleigh ride to a mountaintop multi-course wine dinner for an ultimate romantic getaway.

Georgetown

The Gold Rush Victorian charm really turns up the romance factor in Georgetown. The historic and adorable Colorado mountain hamlet sits along I-70 at 8,530 feet, without a single stoplight, and brimming with all the fixings for a darling Colorado romantic getaway. Ride the Georgetown Loop Railroad through narrow Clear Creek Canyon to Silver Plume and back. Take in stunning stained glass in downtown’s National Historic District, visit the Hotel de Paris Museum, and linger over tea and pastries at Dusty Rose.

Amazing Romantic Getaway in Aspen

Yes, it’s pricey. Yeah, it’s the playground of the rich and famous. Save your pennies for a romantic weekend away in Aspen. This romantic getaway will surround you with lavish hotels, over-the-top amenities, and some of the best dining and shopping the state has to offer. In addition to world-class skiing, guests can take an Aspen Mountain Powder Tour via Snowcat (gourmet lunch included), embark on a pristine snowshoe outing, or just relax and people-watch over wine and fondue.

Crested Butte

Travel to the heart of Colorado for a more tucked-away, romantic getaway with all the same spoil-yourself comforts. Toggle between town and the ski resort—just three miles apart. Cherish Crested Butte’s art galleries, homegrown restaurants, and Victorian storefronts along colorful Elk Avenue. Go cross-country, downhill, or backcountry skiing, or take a horseback ride or snowmobile adventure together. Cabin, condo, or cozy suite, area lodging is designed around genuine hospitality and Western charisma.

Ouray

Colorado’s own private Switzerland, Ouray is an old mining town with a unique winter wonderland appeal. Slip into this striking box canyon for a true taste of small-town southwest Colorado. Visit the Box Canyon Waterfall and Park to see the ice climbers and be sure to soak in the mineral-rich waters of Wiesbaden Hot Springs. Sip and nibble at restaurants and cafes set in ornate Victorian buildings while welcoming the peaceful, friendly, content feel that makes Ouray so special.
