Silverthorne, Colorado is located off Exit 205 along Interstate 70 in Summit County. It is the “hub” for several ski resorts in Central Colorado making it a great destination! You can head north to Steamboat Springs, northeast to Winter Park, south to Arapahoe Basin, Keystone, Breckenridge, and west to Copper Mountain. So many options!
This community has bombed as a short-term rental, Airbnb and Vrbo, hotspot providing visitors several lodging options to choose from. We stayed in an Airbnb in the Wildernest area for our visit to Silverthorne.
We visited during the winter for ski season yet I have many trails marked for a summer visit!
Day One
- The “plan” was to leave early and join our friends at Arapahoe Basin yet mother nature had other plans with a massive snow storm and delayed our drive. We ended up starting our weekend getaway with hot tub happy hour
- Hot tub happy hour
- Drinks and Dinner at Bluebird Market (recommend; great place for families and big group as there are several food choices under one roof + upstair arcade)
Day Two
- Ski Day at Copper Mountain
- Apres at Eagle BBQ
- Hot tub happy hour
