Aspen or Snowmass CO?

I checked out Aspen....Hotel Aspen – 2 queens - 6 nights with one free $1,878.00…I asked, is there a cheaper option…that was the cheapest option!


We looked at Snowmass, CO too…it’s about 10 miles from Aspen…6 nights with one night free was $961.88. Back in our price range!

When you buy a 5-day lift ticket you get one day free, so it works out at $67.00 per day for adults and $41.00 for kids. The lift tickets are good for all four mountains (so Snowmass and Aspen).

Most skiers fly into Vail, as Denver is 4 hours away. The shuttle from Vail is included with the lodging in a lot of packages.
