Encompassing 40 acres of snowy space, Aspen Meadows is far from your typical ski resort. Rather than kitschy ski-lodge style, this massive resort boasts bright and modern decor. Expansive windows let a lot of light into the guest rooms, which are decked out in neutral hues (with pops of color here and there), kitchenettes, flat-panel TVs and complimentary high-speed Internet access. Private balconies and patios boast views of the Rockies; you can also enjoy the scenery from a poolside lounge chair or from the patios of the on-site Plato's and Meadows restaurants. Aside from the location and spacious rooms (starting at 500 square feet), recent guests say the superb customer service is the top reason to stay here.
