Simply put, Colorado is an outdoor lover’s paradise. There aren’t many fun, outdoor activities that Coloradans haven’t managed to make available for your next vacation rental. Aside from an actual oceanfront beach, Colorado offers skiing, snowboarding, whitewater rafting, horseback riding, hiking, mountain biking, ballooning and much, much more. Vail, Aspen, Breckenridge, and Beaver Creek are a ski-lover’s dream and the winding Colorado River provides many opportunities for adventure water sports.
 
Colorado’s climate is slightly varied, depending on which part of the state you choose to take your vacation. The Eastern plains are slightly milder and summer temperatures can reach in the high 90s! Winters are dry and cold but often with a few mild days here and there. West of the plains, however, can fluctuate a bit quicker – summers tend to average in the 60s and the colder winters mean lots of gorgeous, powdery snow!
 
If you prefer your vacation rental a little more laid back, Colorado has several Amtrak passenger trains so you can sit back and watch the picturesque scenery flow by. Or soak in one of the many natural Hot Springs located throughout Colorado. Finish off your Colorado experience with a live music concert at Denver’s natural amphitheater, Red Rocks, for a concert you will never forget.
