Fodor's Expert Review Lodge at Breckenridge

This lodge more than compensates for its location on a mountainside beyond the downtown area with breathtaking views of the Tenmile Range from nearly every angle. There's regular shuttle service to the town and ski area and the place resembles a cozy chalet. The well-lighted, spacious rooms are comfortable, with fluffy duvets and hypoallergenic pillows. Upgrade to a suite, and you'll also have a fireplace and a kitchenette. Enjoy après-ski or dinner at the restaurant, Traverse Restaurant and Bar.
