We have the Ikon Pass<\/a> and Steamboat Resort is on that pass. Steamboat is only 3 hours from Denver (without traffic), making it the perfect weekend getaway for us. We have been to Steamboat multiple times in both the summer and winter. Check out our Steamboat Springs travel guide below!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How we traveled there<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We drove from Denver which ends up taking 4 hours with traffic. We drove over Rabbit Ears Pass on the way to Steamboat which has great hiking, snowmobiling, and views. Rabbit Ears Pass has closed in the past during bad snow storms but it usually opens back up in a few hours or one day. There are alternate routes to get to Steamboat if the pass is closed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Yampa Valley Regional Airport (HDN), is about 30 minutes from Steamboat and has expanded its service in the last few years. Check here<\/a> to see if your city is listed and skip the drive from Denver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where we stayed<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We have stayed in a few Airbnbs while in Steamboat. The town is called Steamboat Springs and there are more restaurants and bars in the town than around the resort. It is a 10-15 minute drive to the ski resort from the town. Staying in Steamboat Springs is great for nightlife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
