Great article!!
Neat!
looks like a nice hotel.
great destination for a romantic weekend perhaps!
We are attending a wedding at the Broadmoor in June, just might have to spend the night!
I have gone past the Broadmoor several times en route to Bear Trap Ranch family camp up the mountain from there. It is a lovely place, and I always wished we could go inside and get to know some of the history.
Holly, you don't have to stay there to go inside. This was the first time I've ever gotten to stay and I've "hung out" at the Broadmoor many times. There are tours available and all sorts of special events. Their Christmas Tree lighting is spectacular!
Those are wonderful suggestions for vacationing in Colorado Springs! I've already planned out this year's vacation, but definitely will consider for next year. Thanks!
You continue to make Colorado look even more inviting than it already is.
It's beautiful.
I was thinking earlier today how BEAUTIFUL Colorado is, especially Denver. Your pictures prove that I should be there more and more every day! Thanks for sharing.
Monica
