About this Area
Winter Park, nestled in Grand County, Colorado, is a stunning high-country retreat. Positioned at an elevation of over 9,000 feet, it lies at the base of the world-renowned Winter Park Ski Resort. The locale is encircled by the Arapaho National Forest and three wilderness areas - Indian Peaks, Byers Peak, and Vasquez. The nearby Rocky Mountain National Park, with nearly 266,000 acres of natural land and wildlife habitat, provides a scenic haven for residents and visitors alike.
The ski resort ranks among Colorado's most popular. In close proximity are Ski Granby Ranch and Berthoud Pass, one of the nation's highest and oldest ski areas, located on the southern boundary of the Fraser Valley. During winter, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing contribute significantly to the county's income. Winter Park and the neighboring town of Fraser embody the essence of seasonal resort towns, bustling during the ski season, and tranquil during spring, summer, and fall. Come summer, the idyllic climate lures mountain bikers, hikers, anglers, campers, river rafters, and backpackers.
Winter Park showcases a spectrum of residential properties, from ski-in, ski-out condominiums to luxurious custom homes. A plethora of investment properties is also available. With accessibility to Denver in just about an hour, visitors can relish day trips to the town and ski area without the need to traverse to Colorado's more remote ski resorts.
