The difference between staying the week before Christmas and the week after Christmas.
The week before Christmas in Breckenridge is much better, in the sense that it is less expensive for your ski home rental. This also means that you can get much more skiing in since you are not waiting in huge lift lines, and you are also able to still walk into restaurants. With the town being significantly quieter you have much less stress and are able to do a lot more fun activities instead of really having to plan.
Here are some tips if you still want to come the week after Christmas.
First, rent a ski in-and-out home, like our 9 bedroom home on Peak 8.
This is crucial, because if you are not parked by 8:30 you will not get parking. When you are ski in/out you don’t care about parking. Also, skiing home for lunch will save you an incredible amount of time not waiting in the lunch line or looking for a table.
Another tip for after Christmas skiing is to plan and reserve everything you can as soon as you can. Activities like dog sledding, sleigh rides, and Snowcat tours can be reserved a year ahead and are booked out a year ahead for this week.
Don’t forget to pack your patience, it can be an hour to drive the 2 miles through town, and extremely frustrating to go grocery shopping.
Use our private chef service to save you time and spend more of your vacation vacationing instead of waiting in a line.
