Resort Overview
It says something about the majesty of the Colorado mountains that a destination as sprawling as the Broadmoor can still feel like a hideaway. Tucked into the foothills of Cheyenne Mountain, the 105-year-old, five-star resort pulls off other tricks as well. It somehow feels homey and high-class. Rugged Pikes Peak is within reach, but at every turn is polished marble and pampering service. With its 10 restaurants, indoor and outdoor pools, spa, bowling alley, s’mores-friendly fire pits and two gorgeously maintained courses, there’s no reason to leave the Broadmoor’s comforts. But the pull of the peaks is strong, and the resort offers many dusty adventures. Most alluring are the “wilderness experiences” at three luxe lodging outposts: Cloud Camp, Fly Fishing Camp and the Ranch at Emerald Valley. On the dastardly Ross and RTJ greens, everything runs away from the mountains. At the Broadmoor, where they get everything just right, you’ll bask in them.
Highlights
The Broadmoor Seven Falls, a series of seven waterfalls cascading through a box canyon, is a privately-owned natural wonder accessible through the resort.
Boating on Cheyenne Lake is a blast for non-golfers and golfers alike.
The Ranch at Emerald Valley, an all-inclusive wilderness retreat, operated by the Broadmoor, just beyond the edge of the resort’s main campus.
